Find Ancestors

Hi Siobhan
You are looking rather busy. I wondered if you could look up a marriage for James Lord born around 1814 in Lancashire to an Ann born around 1827. We think the marriage is from 1847-49 in the Halifax region.

Thanks so much for this!

Hi siobhan,

kind regards
bernie.

Morning Siobhan
Can you do anything for Dublin Ireland ? hope so
Let me know please
Have a fab day
Take care Lynne

Hi Siobhan

Thank you so much.
On the 1871 census George (Alfred) has a son also called Alfred aged 6 which makes sense as in the 1901 census his son Alfred aged 36 is occupying 3 rooms in the same house. Also Alfred's wife Isabella is listed as born in Northumberland where it looks as tho he grew up.
Thanks again Siobhan. It might make looking for his birth a little easier.

Julie
