Good morning list and digest members. Thank you Nivard, Margaret and Leonard for advice on getting around LCC and Lincs to the past. Still having some problems but it looks like Gainsborough Holy Trinity marriages are not available through that site though the marriage index for the marriage I need I could see on many sites. My problem child is Rebecca Staniland ch 13 Oct 1872 and home with her family in 1881. She doesn't get married or die but but a 17 year old Rebecca Stanley does marriage in 1889 to Stephen Winter. Then I can follow her through till she dies, No Rebecca Stanley born in Lincolnshire around 1872 that is why I was hoping to see the marriage. Only a side line but I branch side ways a lot. I have also seen a tree on Ancestry that does have the index of the marriage but again Stanley and they are doing a Staniland tree. I don't have a subscription to Ancestry so I can't make contact. In 1939 Rebecca Winter is born 24 Sept 1872 which would match ok with Oct baptism. I do believe Rebecca Stanley is my girl but I wonder why her surname is different. Chris
People (mainly members of Lincolnshire FHS but in a non-LFHS project) have been transcribing the main details from the PRs of post-1837 marriages through to 1911 when the GRO Index began to enter the spouse's surname into the Index. http://mi.lincolnshiremarriages.org.uk/ The Lincs marriage index shows the name as Rebecca Stanley, father's name George. The Lincs post-1837 Marriage Index is still an on-going work, though most registration districts are now as complete as the registers deposited at Lincolnshire Archives will allow. Please read the introduction to each district before searching.
