Ware PRs for HUXLEY
« on: Wednesday 24 August 11 23:17 BST (UK) »
I am looking for the birth/baptism and parents of Elizabeth Rachel HUXLEY in Ware in 1813/1814.

I have her tracked through 1841-1881 in Shoreditch & Bethnal Green, married to Thomas William ORCHARD...they would have married abt 1835, probably in Shoreditch, but there is nothing in IGI or Findmypast.
There is only 1 Huxley family in Herts (Bishops Hatfield) in the 1841c, and the parents are too young to possibly be hers. Dead end :'(

I'd be grateful for any help, please
D.

Hi cannot at present locate a baptism for Elizabeth, but as far as the wedding, you were correct with the year date and location!

Thomas William Orchard to Elizabeth Rachel Huxley 6th December 1835 St John at Hackney ( This was by Banns being read ) Taken from The London, England, Marriages And Banns 1754-1921.

Thankyou ... good old St John Hackney...I was baptised there (and not been back since)

Is The London, England, Marriages And Banns 1754-1921 available online? I couldn't find anything on Findmypast (and have you seen the make-over today by Frankenstein, who probably has a 90" screen & never has to scroll for anything?)

regards

Hi yes the Marriage and Banns are on the other pay to view/subscription site, and yes the new format on FindMyPast is currently not to my liking!!

Ah... I've made a point of avoiding that one since I had a short subscription & they automatically renewed it without so much as a by-your-leave.

I've had a quick look this evening & their search seems to be as fuzzy as ever, offering male & female regardless of the initial name being searched for.

Perhaps I should spend some time down at the library again... they have access on their computers.

Thanks anyway.
