Seems a strange day, perhaps they did the deed during a tea break, but on Tuesday 13th June 1854 my great great grandparents, James Stein and Elizabeth Pate married in Linlithgow after proclamations on Sunday's the 4th and 11th. They were married by the Rev. Dr. Andrew Bell, who the next year was the Moderator for the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland for 1855.
Their names are still at this time written as Steen and Peat but by the time of their deaths years later in Stirling would have become Stein and Pate, the Pate name making it as far as my aunt Elizabeth (it was her middle name).
James was 25 and a shoemaker, the eldest child of James Steen, a tanner and Jane Downs. There were six sisters between him and his only brother, Henry.
Elizabeth was 4 days short of her 23rd birthday and was the daughter of John Peat, a shoemaker and Isabella Scott.
All of them, like many in Linlithgow lived on High Street. At the time James and Elizabeth were children the houses here were described as old and decayed yet substantial. Their daughter Elizabeth, my great grandmother would be born on the same street.

I still don't have a computer with FTM running, but will have a go from what I can find

Richard Bond,my 4 x great grandfather, died on this day in 1821
The Manchester Guardian of 30th June 1821 carried the following: -
On the 14th inst in consequence of a fall from his horse the preceding night, on his return home, Richard Bond, Esq. of Denton, hat-manufacturer. He was esteemed by all for his genuine honesty and benevolent heart; in his death society has to deplore the loss of a valuable member, and his family and friends will ever mourn the absence of an affectionate father and protector.

He was born in unknown place , sometime around 1758 , probably near Manchester to John Bond and Ellen Nee Swinlehurst originally of Tatham in the north of Lancs.
He was living at Denton in Lancs when he married Mary Lowe at Manchester Cathedral in 1782.
He had  a hat factory roughly where Bond Street is now in Denton. (Named after him?)
At one point also the hat business was Bond Peacock and Bromley at Crown Point (now a shopping centre)

He and Mary had 12 children, of whom 6 died very young and on at only 30.

Mary lived on until 1835.
Both RIchard andMary were buried at St Lawrence's Denton

On 12th June 1912, my great great aunt Caroline Emma Edward nee Holmes emigrated aboard the Royal George from Bristol, bound for Montreal. On arrival a week later she described herself as a widow.She settled in Winnipeg

She was born in 1858 in Birmingham
She married George William Edwards in Claines Worcestershire in 1876.
Emma and George had 5 children. George seemed to be away a lot and may have run off. His death is not clear

She clearly had a difficult decision when her daughter Emma and Her sons Edwin (who I met) and George William, all already married emigrated to Canada.
However she went and eventually died in 1937 in Winnipeg and was buried at Old Kildonan

I missed yesterday, which was the anniversary of my aunty Alice's death in 1993. She was the older half-sister of my uncle who died a couple of days ago.

Today:
1840 - my 3 x great grandparents, Joseph Milne and Jean Birnie were married in Rathen, Aberdeenshire. By the census of 1841, Jean was living with her parents-in-law, John and Christian Milne, with an eight month old baby (another Joseph) but she was listed as Jean Birnie, not Milne. This caused me some confusion, I can tell you! Although I have never been able to find the record, it would seem that her husband had died within months of their marriage and that she reverted to her maiden name. She re-married some years later. This is yet another of those occasions when I have wished that registration in Scotland had started at the same time as in England. I shall probably never know what happened to Joseph. ???
