Searching for Elizabeth Jackson from Northamptonshire

[RSGrosse]

Mark, thank you.  I live in the US and finding stuff about England from here is often a pain in the neck.  Rosie, I appreciate your help as well.

Next Baptism says John Voce of Whitley

Selby 30th January 1791, Mary Gibson bapt. 2nd dau of John a "Sailer" & Elizabeth Gibson
John son of Joseph Gibson of Selby, Fisherman. Elizth dau of Richd Jackson of Selby, Carrier by Mary his wife dau of John Voce of Whitley, Weaver. Born 4th January.

No idea yet on Whiteley or Whitley.

Added Somebody ought to check the images

The Richard Jackson I am familiar with, of Selby, were Tanners (Leather), so Carrier (above) is probably wrong.

I would always advise you to check the image of the original entry:-
a) There can be valuable snippets, not transcribed on Family Search (FS).
b) there may be human error occasionally too?

Selby Parish should be on the two main family history sites for anyone on Rootschat wishing to check?

Selby Transcriptions 30th January 1793 when their 1st Son John Gibson is baptised, it says in the descent (ancestry) that Richard Jackson of Selby was a Currier.

Looks like Carrier is an error?

marriage in Selby of Richard Jackson, currier, and Mary Vokes 24 Sept 1758, both otp, he marked, she signed, witnesses Zacharias & William Taylor.

[RSGrosse]

Thanks.  I made a note that he is a 'currier' instead of a carrier.

possible burial in Selby for Richard Jackson 18 June 1819 aged 85
Possible for Mary 3 Feb 1831 aged 102

Marriage of John Gibson & Elizabeth Jackson 22 Jan 1787 shows John as aged 24 and a waterman, and Elizabeth as 21.

[RSGrosse]

Is a waterman the same as a sailor?

If you click on the pdf and download (up to you if you wish to save to pc) and you have a printer connected, you may wish to print the Selby pages.

Yorkshire is in two volumes.

You can get the full title from the title page.
