Hi List, This is my first posting and I do need help. My 3x gr. grandfather James LAWSON was buried in Market Weighton, age 28, on June 28, 1815. This is all I know of him, other than figuring out he was born cr. 1787, but I don't know where. His wife, Sarah (I think LEWIS, but am not 100% sure) must have been just pregnant when he died as she gave birth to a son, James Posthumous LAWSON, bapt. Feb. 21 1816 in Market Weighton, father stated as being James LAWSON an Ale House Keeper. Where can I write to have a search of P.R's done for a possible marriage? Any and all help appreciated. Cheers, Bridget in Canada GlamFHS # 5865 I transcribe for www.freebmd.rootsweb.com I use www.archivecdbooks.ca to help in my research

May I suggest you contact Mrs Penny Pattinson, 250 Longridge Road, Grimsargh, Preston Lancs. PR2 5AQ who runs a marriage index covering East Yorkshire after 1754? Donations are appreciated.

I wish to thank Lynda, Victor, Persis, and Sue for responding to my plea for help and giving suggestions to help me break down my James LAWSON brickwall. I shall follow up on all the suggested leads and hopefully get some results. Many thanks to all of you, very much appreciated.
