You are quite close to the Nottinghamshire border there, Leonard. It may be worth looking for the marriage in Notts. The marriage doesn't turn up in our new super duper re-checked index, so the only other alternative is that the marriage wasn't noted down in the register/BTs or the appropriate register/BT has gone missing.

Thanks Elaine for your suggestion. My William Collingwood who married Frances ... seems to have been a butcher so although there may have been some connection with these distinguished and wealthy families I don't think that if it exists it would have been relevant to this marriage. It was kind of you to take an interest.

Hi Lou and list, I wonder if anyone can help me with my missing children of John Edward Crow and Ede Thompson. Not being in England has posed a challenge to finding them. I have found my great grandparents John and Ede at home in Louth Road South Reston on census night in 1911 with my grandfather Charles Wilfred, and his brothers Arthur Edward and Alfred plus Ede's brother Herbert Thompson. Their eldest son John Thomas Crow was elsewhere. The census indicates that there were two (2) additional children born to Ede who had died before that census night. It is these children I would like to add to the family group. I have found a birth for Lily Crow born Sep 1/4 1896 and baptised 8th Aug 1896 but am yet to confirm her death details and burial place. The second child I have no information for. Dawn Australia On Sat, May 5, 2012 at 7:54 AM, Louis Mills <louis_mills@att.net> wrote: > Let's focus on missing children in May.

Thank you for your email. Hi Graham My 3rd Great Grandfather (George Henry Taylor ) 2 wife (of 4) who he married in 1874 was Palethorpe from a previous marriage (she was widowed) - originally Hames. I have very little information on her ; she had a daughter Carrie Palethorpe, who is record in Horbling in 1881 - incorrectly as the head. Is there any connection ? Is the Taylor conenction coincidental ?

Hi, I am trying to find William Lowe, the son of Thomas Lowe and Mary Dawson Lowe. I have a PR for him being born in Alford. I think that it was about 1803 but I am not at home and don't have my paper work with me for the exact date he was baptised. He had three brothers, Joseph born 1807, Richard born 1808 and Thomas born between 1809-1815. The PRs ar there for William and Joseph but they are a black blob in the time when Richard and Thomas were born. I have records for the three brothers,however. The family was located a few years later in Bilsby and there are records there for his father and these three brothers. Denny Lowe has been most helpful in trying to find him. The most promising of the information is that he might be the William Lowe who married Jane Markham 10 March 1830 in East Ravensdale. A James Dawson was a witness. Dawson was his mother's maiden name but I have never been able to find any Information other than her marriage to Thomas in 1800 and she probably died in 1817. Denny did not find a William Lowe on the 1841 census. There was a Jane Low who was a widow who married a William Elvin in Bilsby in 1840. Could William have died before that 1840 date? If so, there should be a death record but I did not find one when I went thru the Bilsby PR records. It is possible that I could have missed it. I know nothing about East Ravensdale but he could have died there. Maybe someone has Jane Markham Low in their records that might shed some light on this. I have never been able to find Mary Dawson before her marriage in 1800 in Alford. Believe me I have tried many leads. The most promising one was that a Dawson was the Vicar in Alford starting about 1808. I traced him out of Lincolnshire but came up with a zero. There were other Mary Dawsons and several people have given me information about their Mary Dawson so I could eliminate them. There does not seem to be a Mary Dawson who would be of the correct age to marry in 1800. Perhaps the James Dawson who was a witness at the marriage of William and Jane in 1830 could be a lead. Mary would have been deceased by that date. Denny has given me other information but there are big IFs in all of it that he recognized. Unfortunately William Lowe/Low is a common name and I would need to find more information such as a death record that might help. Also, if he could definitely be tied to Jane Markham it would help. Also his brother Thomas was sent to Tazmania in 1844. The records in Tazmania list William as a brother but do not list his mother who was deceased. That makes me wonder if he was deceased in 1844. Thanks for any help that anyone can give me on either William Lowe or Mary Dawson Lowe. Velma VJSpringer@aol.com

Hi David Thanks for your reply, it's certainly given me something to think about. Unfortunately I have been out all day so haven't yet had the time to do a rigorous check at the Lincs to the Past website. I quickly found a couple more Burbidge marriages (Catherine and William) but not yet that for Frances Burbidge. I already had the marriage of William Collingwood to an Elizabeth (undated and with no family name) but with two children, Ann bap. 1768 and William bap.1770 and the death of Elizabeth Collingwood wife of William Collingwood 22 Dec 1771 on file. So I was certain that the marriage to Frances was a second one. Your findings could throw some light on the matter. One possible candidate could have been the sister Frances Burbidge. From the birth of the first child (Thomas bap. 1773) of the marriage with Frances I would estimate that it took place 1772/1773. The fact that William was a butcher fits well with what I know about later members of the family who were farmers, butchers and shop keepers. Another possibility that crossed my mind was that as several of the descendants married across the border in Notts that this might have happened in this case. Well thanks again you have cleared up the details of the first marriage to Elizabeth and given me a possible line on the second to Frances.

Hi Bill Thanks for looking, I think this going to be a difficult one to solve since I'm fairly certain that William married out of his parish. I have five of the children of William Collingwood and Frances: Thomas, Elizabeth, Frances (my 3xgreat grandmother), John and Mary. On the Collingwood side I can get back to the early 1700's, my hope is that eventually I will get the family name of Frances senior and be able trace the line further back.

Let's focus on missing children in May.  We all have them, those children for whom we have the baptism and maybe one census report of them at age 6.  What happened to them? Let us know what you have on this child and we'll see if we can find some more data.  This might be a good time to read up on school records, confirmation records, military records, etc.  I'm sure some of the young men saw military service as a way of earning money and establishing themselves.  Others youngsters enter domestic service, apprenticeships, et cetera.  Some, who were school monitors, decided to become teachers.  Some never got off the land, but may have been tempted away by better wages in other counties. By the way, I found one of my relatives down in Kent in a confirmation list.  He was the only 30-year-old in a confirmation class of teenagers.  Now that must have been a challenge!  So don't give up on those alternative records.  It's not all parish registers and census returns! So let's fill up those chairs at the Archives! Go!!!     Lou
