Looking for HOWBRIDGE

[nicelad64]

I'm trying to find the bap of JANE HOWBRIDGE born circa 1811 in Hornsea. I have asked the same question on the north riding board so hope I'm ok to ask here!

I'm not quite certain which reg district Hornsea would be in either, or the villages which surround it as her bap could well have been done elsewhere!

Cheers

Hi

Have a look at this for your area and nearby places

Jane

I had a look at the IGI and could only find the following Howbridge's all born Hornsea; Sarah Howbridge chr. 16th May 1804
Mary Howbridge chr 18th June 1806
Ann Howbridge chr 1st April 1809 Father of all three was Henry Howbridge and Mother Ann

Hi Liam,

Success! I checked out the Hornsea PRs this morning at the Beverley Record Office. The handwriting is very small and very faint but I could just make out -

baptised March 17 1811 Jane d/o Henry & Ann.

To be honest, the beginning of the surname could have been any 3 letters but it definetly ended in 'bridge'!! Could explain why it was missed from the IGI - or possibly even transcribed as something else.

Liam,

I have found another person yesterday looking for the same information who I am now in contact with.  I have sent you a personal PM if you would like information about the rest of the Howbridge line.

I hadn't realised the original post is nearly one year old, and, looking at Liam's profile, he hasn't been on RC since - so perhaps we shouldn't hold our breaths aiting for his reply.

Thank you for that Jill!! Think Liam hit a wall with his research with his Irish roots, but I'v kept up with the Yorkshire lot! I'm addicted to the search! I hadn't found Jane, but definitely looks like her, 2 of her children were named Henry and Ann which I thought could well have been parents' names.

Brilliant find! I haven't managed to find a marriage for Henry and Ann though, nor any census' with them. Possibly they had died before 1841, but without a marriage or place if birth I'm stuck!

I have tons of info on the Howbridge line.  We have a whole group of us descendents that are working together on the line.  Send me a private email.  I emailed Liam.  I can answer the marriage question and there are  7 siblings to Jane.
