HI  I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT ABOUT MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDAD WILLIAM TAYLOR.I HAVE FOUND HIM IN THE 1881 WHERE HE WAS MARRIED BUT I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHERE HE WAS PREVIOUSLY. HERE IS WHAT I KNOW ABOUT HIM
BORN 1846c IRONVILLE DERBYSHIRE
MARRIED MARY (DON'T KNOW MAIDEN SURNAME)FROM WOLVERHAMPTON
HOPEFULLY THIS INFO WILL BE OK
MANY THANKS
RACHIE

I have a probable William Taylor in 1871, but since there are three in the vicinity fairly close in age I would have preferred to know his father's name from the marriage certificate, which you don't as yet have.  I think this one is quite likely, judging by the occupation of the father and William

HI MARYA,MANY THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY IT DOES LOOK POSSIBLE THAT THIS IS WILLIAM .LOOKING AT WILLIAMS SISTERS NAME ANNIS I KNOW THAT WILLIAM AND HIS WIFE HAD A DAUGHTER CALLED ANNIS SO PERHAPS SHE WAS NAMED AFTER HER.HAVE YOU ACCESS TO THE 1861 CENSUS?
ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU

There is a christening on the IGI  of Hannah Taylor 2nd August, 1874 Ironville, to parents William and Mary Ann Taylor.

Also a birth for her June Qtr 1874 Belper Derbyshire 7b 566

Belper would be the registration district I think for Alfreton.  You could order the birth certificate online from www.gro.gov.uk with the proviso that the parents were William and Mary, the cost is £7 but if they are the wrong parents they will refund you part of your money, and just keep part for a search fee.  If this is the correct Hannah it will give you Mary's maiden name which will help you find their marriage.

HI MARY A MANY THANKS FOR THIS HANNAH WAS MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER BUT I WASNT EXACTLY SURE ON HER DETAILS I WILL DEFINATELY SEND FOR HER BIRTH CERTIFICATE
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
RACHIE

Yes I do have the 1861 but would prefer you to confirm the family with parents details through birth and marriage records also since we could be following the wrong family.  I'll try and find them later in the 1891 and 1901 censuses if possible and if we can find a date for Annis that is an unusual enough name to hopefully be able to find her birth reference.

just noticed from my records that Annis was christened Annie born 1884 but she was known as Aunt Annis by my Grandmother who she lived with as a young girl .I always remember her talking about her so iam not sure whether her name was Annis or Annie

Now unless Annis is a common name in the area, it seems coincidental that living in the same dwelling but a separate household is
