Can anyone help me find any information on Sarah Please? She was born in Chapletown, she married Charles Goddard. She must have died young because when she died her children were brought up by different relatives.

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 20:27

sorry I misled you it is Chapletown in Sheffield not Chapletown in Leeds

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 20:48

Does anyone have any idea who the parents of Sarah are?

Yes that is their family, but it seems Sarah was married before she married my great great grandfather

Not sure what year she married my g g grandad Charles Goddard but she married before that in 1878 aged 20

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 21:21

Yes Jane 123 that is the family

Victoria

Victoria Report 5 Mar 2008 21:33

So who did she marry in 1878? Was she with this man in 1881? It could be that they split up and that legally she could not remarry as her husband was still alive. They may have got around to marrying later on but then she died. I think the death that Cagsie found is quite likely eventhough whoever registered it either got it wrong or perhaps she was registered in her 1st married name?

Can anyone please tell me what year Sarah married Charles. It must be before 1878

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 21:35

I believe it was James Parkin

Victoria

Victoria Report 5 Mar 2008 21:36

Jacqueline,

So what was her maiden name then?

BW

Jane

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 21:38

Her youngest child John William must have been a few weeks or months old when she died then

Victoria

My grandad would have been around 7 which ties up with what I was told because he was brought up by his Aunt, so it seems that death is the correct one

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 5 Mar 2008 21:42

She called my Grandad Joseph Parkin Goddard, which his middle name is the surname of her first husband if all this is correct. This seems really strange, bet my great grandfather was not at all pleased.

Victoria

Have you got the birth certificate for your grandad? If you haven't you may find it will be of great help to you as it should have her maiden name also.

my dad said he was called Parkin after his mothers maiden name, the only way he could be called after his mother is if he was Elizabeths first husbands child. So who he thought was his mother was actually his grandma
