Hello Margaret
I found the marriage of Blaney & Ellen on Family History on line:

Parish St Annes, Richmond Date 18030511 Groom Blaney Toombs of parish Liverpool occupation Mariner Bride Ellen Shaw of parish Liverpool a Widow by Banns/Licence L
Amount paid £0.08

Goodness knows where the name Blaney comes from. When their daughter Elizabeth was baptised he was noted as Bloyney on IGI.
Sorry just noted the spelling Toombs

Thanks for looking

Marcelle

I can't find anything on BVRI for Blaney Toomes. Do you suppose Blaney is a nickname? Can't find a marriage of Ellen Shaw to a Toomes either.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Hello

I am looking for the following 2 chaps and wonder if anyone could help?

I have a copy of a death cert for an Ellen Toomes nee Shaw who died in 1838 in Liverpool. At the time of her death she was the widow of Blaney Toomes a mariner. Ellen was 68 when she died and living at Bispham St. I am hoping someone may have access to the BIVRI & NBI who could see if anything on Blaney Toomes, either a death or baptism.

I am also trying to find the death of Thomas/Tom Wootten.Thomas was born in Ilminster abt 1850. He married Ellen Gummer on 7 Dec 1873 at Clifton Registry Office, Glouestershire (now Bristol). In the 1881 census Ellen is a widow so Thomas died between 1873 & 1881 either in Ilminster or Gloucestershire or may even have died in Wales

Any help greatly appreciated
