I would like to say thanks to my fellow Roots Chatters who viewed my post & to the ones who replied to me, in doing so ive now got a Death Reg for my Grt, Grt Gran, it is Rosina Ask, September 1920, Portsmouth, 2b 474, age 86.
Now i was asked if i had a Marriage Cert for my Grt,Grt Gran & yes i have found one, here it is. Date of Marriage: 17th April 1855.
Place of marriage: Holy Trinity Church in the parish of Portsea in the county of Southampton.
William Ask was a seaman & a widower at the time of the marriage.
Rosina Leary was a spinster at the time of the marriage.
Williams father was also called William Ask & he was also a Seaman.
Rosina,s father was Matthew Leary & he was a Labourer.
Witnesses were Robert Talbot and Elliza Leary, Elliza could have been a sister of Rosina?
William Ask must have been illiterate as his mark is 'x' rather than a signature.
I can,t make out there ages on cert as its very distorted the wrting.
Hopefully somewhere out there, this info may lead me in the direction of a birth cert for her, as this, if possible would make my day.
Kindest Regards to all.
Leslie Webster.
