Brian, FreeBMD has the marriage recorded in the June qtr of 1890 at Grantham 7a, page 929. I suggest you send for the marriage certificate which should give you the names of the fathers of the bride and groom, along with other useful info, eg the names of witnesses, often enlightening. It's well worth the £9.00 or so, and should not take too long if ordered on-line. Good luck.

Hello again Mike The Elizabeth ROYCE who died in 1844 (5th Dec) in Bourne Reg District was aged 72, according to the burial record. A Mark ROYCE died aged 55 in March 1819 (so he was born 1764!) at Deeping St James. A Jemima ROYCE died November 1870 at Market Deeping, aged 69, and if she was unmarried, she was not baptized in Deeping; however, a Josiah ROYCE son of Mark and Elizabeth was baptized at Market Deeping in October 1807.

In 1881 he was a groom for the HEAVENS in the High St., Colsterworth; thereafter in the police in Middlesex. Thanks Mike

Further to my last email, perhaps John ( husband of Sarah) could have been a widower when he married her in1868.? Margaret
Hello again Michael, Checking out John & Mary's children from earlier censuses there was a John son age 15 in 1851 bn Sewston. John is 33 living with wife Sarah ( age 24 bn Hoyland Yks) in 1871 and a Police Constable. However, if Frederick Wm. "is" John's son Sarah would likely have been too young to have had a child in 1864. In fact the only marriage for this couple that is relevant is: Marriages Mar 1868 (>99%) ROYCE John Keighley 9a237 Trout Sarah Keighley 9a237 This ties in with ages of children in 1871 SO I wonder if indeed Frederick Wm. "could" be an illegitimate son of one of John & Mary's daughters- (Mary age 12 & Ann who is age 10 in 1851, neither of who are living at home in 1871) Speculation of course.

Minus Charles, the family is still in Osbournby in 1871. RG10/3353 folio 78 page 19 Charles, listed as grandson, is also still in Osbournby RG10/3353 folio 72 page 8 with grandparents Thomas and Ann Handley on the previous page. If you're using FMP and searching using birthplaces in the 1871 then you will get a nil return. For some reason the birthplaces search in 1871 uses only counties, not places. One tip is if someone is missing in say 1871, as in this case, is to try and find them in the following census (in this case 1881). If you can find them in the next census then chances are they didn't emigrate - though some do and come back <g>. Check for any children born in the 'missing' years and their birthplaces.

George was baptized Christmas Eve o f 1836 in Metheringham. I am missing census records for 1841 and 1851. An older sister, Mary, was baptized there on 23 Feb 1834. Since their parents were married in 1820, I strongly suspect that there were other children before Mary, and possibly after George. I do not have any of the census records for their father, Thomas Lineham who was baptized in Kirton In Holland on 28 Dec 1795. Thomas and Elizabeth were married in Timberland on 4 July 1820. So those that I am looking for are additional children of Thomas and Elizabeth. Logically there should be additional children. I have seen MANY variations in the spelling of the surname, many of which I have thought impossible, but then the children in the records match up with the records tha t George's wife wrote down and gave to my grandmother for future reference. I understand that at least part of the time George was referred to as Norris. According to the archives in London the family had been in Lincolnshire since at least the early 1600's. Anything you might find would be welcomed.

My wife has ancestors who were Loyalists in New York state. They were "hounded" out of the state after the American Revolution and moved up into lower Ontario where they were designated as "United Empire Loyalists", so that is a term you can use to search for more information on those folks. My wife's relatives are also part of the group of Canadians who rebuffed an American invasion in 1814 at Chrysler's Farm. There used to be an active local history group in the area (near Morrisville), but I have no current contact data.

It had occurred to me that around 1776-1790 there may have been some of my ancestors could have been part of the soldiers who went to America to fight for the Crown as well as those Loyalists on Colonial land who also fought. Does anyone know of any lists for that war... And then there is the War of 1812... Surname: PORTAS and any variation spellings. Any help or leads would be appreciated.
