Thanks david......yes i have a myriad of birth and marriage certs..including William's marriage to Susannah..and yes its Susannah Ellott,,BUT its the right one...because several of us believe that francis her first husband weas in fact Francis Ellett Storry (Storey Story)..don't ask me why or how..but on her death certificate she is widow of William Gilchrist ..and on their marriage certificate 1849 she is Susannah formerly Storry ne Robinson...
She was some girl!!

His age on the 1841 census is 35. With the rounding down of ages on that census he could be 35-39 making him born1802-1806.
There's this one on BVRI:

STOREY, Francis Christening

Birth Date: 30 Oct 1805
Christening Date: 21 Mar 1808 Recorded in: Hull, Yorkshire, England

Mother: Sarah
Source: FHL Film 990828 Dates: 1800 - 1813

Heehee thanks Eric........I need inspiration on her side too..I have much the same problem with her....but you're right..Parish records is the only answer...and Drypool in Hull is a possible for Francis.
Thanks very much for your input

Derek

The problem you have is that the only birth info available is that from 1841, which merely states that he was born 'in county'.........and as Yorkshire is England's largest, there is a huge area from which to choose!

As Susannah was born in Lincs, it may be worth trying her home parish to find the marriage record. The birth of the (apparently) eldest child c1832 would give a possible time-scale for the search.

Just 'thinking aloud', and hoping that inspiration will strike!

Hi Eric....was quite hoping you might latch onto this..Thanks for coming back.....and yes i do know all about the family....but have you any idea how to get the parents of Francis senior???
I have his death cert and that of Susannah/
He died 21.12.1847 aged 45....at Myton gate Hull.
I have an unconfirmed birth 1802 Hull

I have a beautiful tree from 1757 on the Gilochrist side..but Francis Storry is bugging me! His death Cert is in the name of Story

Thanks

He should be on 1841.........................

Hi everyone, am pleading for some help on a problem that has got out of hand......I cannot find the Birth or the marriage of Francis Storry (Storey. Story) 1802-1847.

We have been through the whole gamut of IGI and Family Search..have enquired, and paid, to East Yorks Archives at Beverley.Nothing....
Becasue he was born c1802.and died 1847.he is not on any Census.........but his family is......1851.

Bear with me..here is the story (!).....he married Susannah Robinson some time in the 1820's 30's..and had several children by her...these are all on the 1851 Census....but NOT under Storry.because he's DEAD!...and Susannah has by now married my GG grandfather William Gilchrist...so the entry is under his name....in Drypool Hull Yorks...you'll see he took on all her Storry children and contributed another one, with Suannah.......
From there its all plain sailing.........BUT where in hell did Francis come from and who were his parents..and when and where did he marry Susannah???
Susannah Robinson b 1811 Burgh on Bain lincs dr of Joseph Robinson........
Francis???????..Please please cam anybody help..

Access to Drypool parish Registers might be the answer..

Many thanks in anticipation.
