Hi Vicky,

I am also researching Murgatroyds although most of mine are Armley, Bramley and Pudsey.

I have looked on FreeBMD for you. Could either of these be George? Purston is in Pontefract./Featherstone

Hi Angela,

you would be right on the area, however the dates of marriage you posted are not possible for the particular people I'm looking for as 1899 is the year George was born, and fred born 1902.

Vicky :-)

Jan...see my comment. When you select county it says Yorkshire from 1974. Before that you have to select the Ridings

Hi Vicky,

Sorry I read your post as if you were looking for marriages for those years and not as they were born in those years so you can see my confusion
:-S :

"can any one please do Marriage lookup for George Ward 1898c purston yorkshire and Fred Ward 1902c of same area"

Anyway, not wishing to be outdone, I have had another go at it! I've tried a marriage search on FreeBMD for them both starting when they were around 17 years old up to 30 years old to see if I could find them. There's a few possibilities to ponder on around the Wakefield area anyway:

Marriages Dec 1915 (>99%)
Ward George Piper Wakefield 9c 100
Ward George F Clarkson Doncaster 9c 1944
Ward George F Ward Pontefract 9c 250
Ward George P Proctor Thorne 9c 2047

Marriages Mar 1923 (>99%)
Lund Annie E Ward Pontefract 9c 150
Ward George E Lund Pontefract 9c 150

Marriages Dec 1924 (>99%)
Bucktrout Elizabeth Ward Pontefract 9c 301
Ward George Bucktrout Pontefract 9c 301

Marriages Jun 1927 (>99%)
Ward George Harrison Wakefield 9c 134
Ward George E Cooling Pontefract 9c 263



Marriages Jun 1919 (>99%)
Gilby Annie R Ward Wakefield 9c 193
Ward Frederick J Gilby Wakefield 9c 193

Marriages Jun 1925 (>99%)
Robinson Gwendoline Ward Dewsbury 9b 1505
Ward Fred Robinson Dewsbury 9b 1505


Marriages Mar 1929 (>99%)
Parker Louie Ward Wakefield 9c 44
Ward Fred Parker Wakefield 9c 44


Marriages Mar 1931 (>99%)
Bradburn Hilda Ward Pontefract 9c 188
Ward Fred W Bradburn Pontefract 9c 188

I hope this helps. I don't know whether either had a middle name but this gives you a start anyway
