Marriage............ George Stingfeller Garland 1904 Oct-Nov-Dec Hunslet Yorkshire - West Riding Amy Speight 1904 Oct-Nov-Dec Hunslet Yorkshire - West Riding It rather looks as though James Stringfellow might have been George's father (out of wedlock)................not Thomas Garland! This looks likely to be Thomas's death....... Name: Thomas Garland Estimated birth year: abt 1844 Year of Registration: 1875 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec Age at Death: 31 DISTRICT: Hunslet County: Yorkshire - West Riding Volume: 9b Page: 242 Reg

I've let my Ancestry sub lapse as I have no time for my family tree at present, then I get press-ganged into helping somebody else out. Isn't that always the way. Anyway, I'm looking for the census record for GEORGE D S GARLAND Born Apr 1882, Howden District, so should be 9 on the 1901. Hoping parents are George and Eliza. Also, if anyone has time, AMY SPEIGHT born Feb 1883, Hunslet district so should be 8 years old. Parents are definitely William and Elizabeth Ann. Both almost certainly are in the Yorkshire region. Thanks very much.
