Yes I will try for George as he is the only child to survive.
Sarah was 28 when she had her first child in Shrewsbury, do you think there is a chance she had others somewhere else in the country who did not survive.

Oh dear,
That's where the gamble comes into play. I really don't see your George F's birth at all.
My suggestion is to try for one of the others-for instance:
Name: Female Worrall
Year of Registration: 1839
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Shrewsbury (1837-71)
County: Shropshire
Volume: 18
Page: 175

And hope that Princess Street is on the cert.

You do have George's marriage cert.?(oh tell me you do?!)

If you look at Mel's reply 22 April above, you will see the birth of George Frederick Worrall 30 May 1839 son of William & Sarah christened 30 June 1839

YES I DO HAVE George's marriage certificate.2nd March 1865 at St.Chads Church Shrewsbury.
George F Worrall age 24 -Carpenter of Princess St. father William Worrall carpenter married Elizabeth Summer age 25 of Shoplatch, father Thomas Sumner- labourer.

Only thing that is wrong is if his birth is May 1839 he should be 25 years old at the date of his marriage.

I have just looked at Find my past birth records and I cannot find any record of George Frederick but I can find Female Worrrall a/m/j/ 1839, my subscription to Find my past ends at the end of this month and I do not intend to renew it at the moment any suggestions to how I locate records without having to pay?

Oh good! Just had to make certain.
That's the odd thing. George's birth/christening is obviously in the parish records. What he may have been transcribed as is another matter. That's why I suggested getting a probable sibling's birth cert.
I usually use:

although I have a sub I've never used FMP to look up a birth.

Best,

I ordered Williams death certificate and George Frederick's birth certificate yesterday, I will let you know the results.

I have Williams death certificate he died 25th December 1847 at Peacock Passage age 40 informant his wife Sarah who signed with a X. This means he was born in 1807, he died of consumption.
I have a birth certificate for a boy born 30th May 1839 at Peacock Passage parents William & Sarah Worrall (late Carter) father signed with a X, there is no name but our registrar tells me that they have found others similar signed by this registrar, he even made a mistake on the date when registered

Oh how sad to have died on Christmas day!

Sandra

Sandra Report 28 Apr 2010 13:18

I am still looking for Williams birth and marriage, as you say how sad for Sarah to loose her husband on Christmas day; out of 7 live births she only had one child grow up I wonder if the other children died of consumption as well.
Please keep looking for Williams birth & marriage.

There is this submitted record but I wouldn't have much confidence in it. Could be of course that John married a lady with the same name as his mother.
