Is there any way I can find out the 'father' of an illeg child born in Sandsend in 1830. Would there have been a bastardy bond thanks brenda

There might have been, if the father of the child was identified. Father MIGHT be named in baptism register. Either way, the answer (if any) will be at the county records office. nell

Look on A2A first before you do anything else - there may be a Bastardy Order on there. OC

Brenda I happen to have the list of the location of parish registers in the new county of North Yorkshire and in the old county of the North Riding and Sandsend isn't on it - have you checked Genuki? County archives are the same as County Record Offices. Registry offices are different to those above.

Ah, and here's why: The Ancient Parish of LYTHE [Transcribed information from the early 1820s] 'LYTHE, a parish in the wapentake and liberty of Langbargh; 4 miles WNW. of Whitby. Lythe is pleasantly situated near the eastern extremity of Cleveland, about 1 mile distant from the sea. Peter de Mausley, III. in the 38th of Henry the Third, obtained a licence for a weekly market, and a fair yearly, to be held on the Eve of St. Oswald, but being in the vicinity of Whitby, both the fairs and market have long been discontinued. The lord of the manor is the Earl of Mulgrave, who resides here, in a stately mansion, which stands a little South of the village, upon the brow of a gently rising hill, commanding a pleasing and extensive prospect of the country and the sea. The Church, dedicated to St. Oswald (see Churches for photograph), is an ancient structure, but owing to a thorough repair, which it received in 1819, has rather a modern appearance at first sight. The living is a vicarage, in the patronage of the Archbishop of York. There is also a Methodist Chapel, built in 1822. Pop. 1134.' Information on the following places in this Parish is contained on a supplementary page.
