Re: BVRI British Isles Vital Record Index

Hello

If possible could you please look for a birth/christening of an Elizabeth Anning born approx 1808 in supposedly Devonport Devon to a Benajmin Anning and Elizabeth Walker.

I hope I am not asking for too much here but I also  have a Catherine Piniwell/Puniwell who married in Devon a William Williams approx 1800 , hoping there might be some other entries for a lady of such an unusual name.

Many thanks
Troods

Thanks Nell, it may be slightly to early but I'll check it out. You never know, stranger things have happened.

Sorry, your Hiltons do not appear.  The records for Wolverhampton don't seem to go up to those dates.

Martha Dobson - can't help at all there - Nantwich records included on the CDs only begin in 1821.  Without a maiden name it would also be very difficult to search for her with the way the index is on the CDs - all the names beginning A on one,etc D-F on another etc  Sorry about that.

Troods,

Neither Puniwell nor Piniwell appears in either the baptism or the marriage records.

Nick,

Maltby seems to be a Lincolnshire name although there are some in Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire (particularly Scarborough).  I could not find any further children of John Maltby and Esther in Willoughby in Lincolnshire but did see a child of George Maltby and Esther, a son Thomas, baptised 5 Jul 1781 born 29 December 1780.  (FHL film No.989787).  George Maltby & Esther Burnett were married 24 May 1773 in Willoughby, Lincolnshire (FHL film No 1541981).  So I wonder if the baptism for John in 1778 has been mistranscribed.  There is no record included for a John Maltby and Esther in that period.

A John Maltby married in Willoughby in 1823 to Mary Lucretia Lenton.

The two baptisms I gave you yesterday are the only ones in this index with the parents John & Esther Maltby.

Hopefully something in all this will help you.

Thanks for taking the time to follow up on my queries. I need to check all the facts I know for certain. I have John Maltby's name on Charlotte's wedding certificate. He had died by the wedding in 1840. His occupation was leather dyer, but I'm not sure if that provides any clues as to his origins. Oh well, life would be boring if we could all get back to the 1560s with all the lines of our tree without any problems along the way.
