marriage of William Strother Knaresborough 1863

[ormus]

William Strother married Dec 1863 in Knaresborough (actually Killinghall I think) to a Sarah. Her last name is what I need. It does not appear in BMD index records. Any help getting this info as well as the witnesses of the marriage would be welcome. I could buy the record of course but I thought there might be a cheaper way!
Thanks, Geoff

have you got sarah in any censuses
where was she born
what year was she born.
the reason i am asking this is that if william married a sarah in oct/nov/dec/ qtr. in knaresborough
there were 2.
sarah ann harper,sarah pickard.
if we knew where and when she was born we might be able to pinpoint which one of these it is
by looking at 1861 census.

i think we might be at cross purposes here
the two sarahs i picked out got married in the same quarter and the same district as william strother.

cannot see a sarah ann harper that would fit
there is however a possible in sarah pickard.
here she is in 1861
approx same birthdate as sarah strother in 1871 but different birthplace.
she is in knaresborough in 1861 though.
1861 census.
RG9/3205/54/17.
joseph pickard age 47. b. kirk deighton. occ. farmer. head.
rebecca age 47. b. stuton,yorkshire. wife.
sarah age 20. b. kirk deighton. occ. dressmaker.(unm) daughter.
alice pickard age 9. b. knaresborough. daughter.
james procter age 43. b. pannal,yorkshire. occ. platelayer. boarder.(wid)
james brown age 14. b. stuton. occ. house servant.
living at bogs lane,knaresborough,yorkshire.

i do think you really need to get the marriage cert. to be sure who he married
what i have posted is pure guesswork though perhaps an educated guess.

The 1871 census shows them in Killinghall:
Albert Strother   2
Charles W Strother   5
Sarah Strother   29              b. Hampsthwaite
Thomas Strother   4
Willm Strother   36              b. Spofforth

In dec 1863 the page and volume are 9a 136, and only three names appear on that page none of whom are Sarah. Sarah Pickard and Sarah Harper are on different pages. I can look for Sarah Swale on BMD now I have a clue to a possible name, but we are in the middle of an ice storm here in Massachusetts so I expect to lose power any minute!
Thanks for your help,
Geoff

HI

The 1901 census for William and his son Albert as having a relative with them

Alice Leak bn 1844 Hampsthwaite Widowed.


so maybe finding a Sarah with a younger sister by the name of Alice may help you solve the maiden name of Sarah.



Just for the record the Swale family shown above could fit.


There is a marriage of a Alice Swale to a William Leak(e) in 1866 Knaresborough, So it looks more promising now.


Here you go
