St Giles Parish Registers: Atkinson marriage between 1810 - 1820
« on: Saturday 14 March 15 09:51 GMT (UK) »
Good evening (from Down Under),

I am wondering if anyone could please point me to the right database/s for marriages in Northampton (the town) during the period between 1810 to 1820.

I've tried Ancestry (eg Extracted Parish Records for Northampton), FreeREG, findmypast, etc. I'm afraid I may looking in all the wrong places. ???

George Atkinson married a 'Jane' in Northampton probably between 1815 and 1819 only based on the fact that the Atkinsons baptised their children at St Giles (one child at Doddridge Memorial though) between 1819 and 1828.

Because most of the children were baptised at St Giles, would I be right in saying that it was usual for families to remain within that parochial area for earlier events like marriage too? It appears that the FreeREG database would not cover the presumed St Giles period referred to above.

I would be most grateful any help or guidance on database usage.

Many thanks,

Sarah

Not necessarily. I have some instances where they married in the wife´s home parish then went back to the husband´s home parish to live and build their family. You may need to broaden your search locations for the marriage.

Another potential baptism for them in 1824. George jr. Non-conformist at Castle Hill meeting house.

Thank you for your replies! I will keep digging - hopefully I find something in surrounding areas, as suggested. Fingers crossed.  ;D

Hi WoodElf,

A couple of entries from Alan Clarke's Northamptonshire Marriage Indexes to think about...

George ATKISON otp bach Jane BECKWITH otp wid 1817 25-Nov Northampton St. Giles of E

and possibly Jane's first marriage though I cannot find a burial for James in the right period...

James BECKWITH otp Jane PERKINS otp 1812 25-Dec Northampton St. Giles of E

Think you are on the right track there PalmTree1 :) That Atkison marriage is the only one I could find for George and Jane that fits the location and timeframe.

Hi again WoodElf,

Happy to help but the real credit goes to Alan Clarke and his team that have created the Northamptonshire Baptism/Marriage/Burial Indexes.

From the same source a possible baptism for Jane...
Jane PERKINS d William & Ann 1796 08-Jun Northampton St. Giles C of E

Curiously I cannot find a baptism for James Beckwith in Northamptonshire just as I could not find his burial so maybe he came from out of county or he was a nonconformist. Maybe someone else will be able to help.

Regards,
Paul

Paul, of course you are quite right but I don't have access to this wonderful database: you do, so I am going to thank you for taking the time to undertake these searches.

But I also now know where to purchase the Northampton databases compiled by Alan Clarke and his team.
