Kenneth | Report | 4 Mar 2008 20:14 |
I'm wondering if my GGGGranddad John Richardson 1785 and Margaret ? 1790, both from Berwick on Tweed area, were married (to each other).Their offspring comprised Sarah, John, Peter, Catherine, William, George, James and Margaret; all born in Spittal on Tweed so I'd like to make an honest couple of them. Confirmation would be much appreciated. Kenn |

Kenneth, I've looked at the IGI and there are no records. As they are before 1837, you will have to try and see if the local parish (if you know it) have any records in existence - alternatively, they may be able to give you the best advice on where to go if they do exist. |

Julie, just give one office a call and they will help you out - if it's not them, then they will point you in the right direction. |

Unfortunately i will have to wait until i have purchased marriage certificate as he didn't marry until 1914, which won't help you and i don't know his parents names. Thank you anyway and i may be back in touch. |

Mmm, certainly the occupation fits as she is noted as a tailoress at 1901. It is possible her family were still in Ireland at 1891. Don't recall her having a sister Annie, but then again I may not have tracked down all the children in Ireland. |

Thanks, Paula, I've been at this hobby for a good few years now and I know all about ancestors turning up in strange places and with strange name spellings - they certainly like to keep us guessing. |
