Evonne You order copies of certificates from the General register Office (http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp ). Current cost is £9.25. The information you need is: Maggie Bollings & Tom Wilson Registration District - Bradford Jan-Mar 1875 Vol 9b Page 295 The certificate should have her father's name and occupation on it , and will confirm her age, which may then help you track her down in earlier censuses.

How did Scotland Road get its name. Was it the whim of an exiled Scot, the number of Scots living in the area, or the fact that the general direction of the road was toward Scotland? John

I think you have your dates wrong - she is on the 1871 census as Margaret A Bolling, and marries a Tom Wilson in Q1 1875 in Bradford. If you have a copy of that marriage certificate, what does it say about her father ?

The records are held at the Liverpool records office but certain records needn authorisation from the health authority to view them.

Hello Listers, This morning's visit to the OPC site found the search engine has been updated to return results on all records uploaded prior to 5th June. The latest database to be added will be the only one not included and would need to be searched manually for records. http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/indexw.html 7 June 2012 Updated Marriages from the Church of St Nicholas, Newchurch in Rossendale Orignally extracted from the Bishop's Transcripts with a number of years missing Updated with reference to the Parish Registers allowing many records to be added, especially in the period 1654 to 1721 and 1786 to 1812 Regards, Sally

Hi Merv, You can apply for Bryan Rossiter's death certificate with the reference numbers you have. This will give you the place of death, cause, and who witnessed the event etc. It won't give you any parental details, however, and you'll need to concentrate on Lancashire for that, as he states he was born in Liverpool in the 1851 census. Sadly, with regards to Bellingham, Northumberland is a county in its own right and doesn't have the same fantastic free resources that Lancashire benefits from. This page is from the invaluable Genuki website, which will explain where certain records are held: http://www.genuki.bpears.org.uk/NBL/Bellingham/ And the familysearch.org website holds some records that are browsable by image: https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/show#uri=http://www.familysearch.org/searchapi/search/collection/1918635 Findmypast holds some records for Bellingham, but you will have to purchase credits to view any information: http://www.findmypast.co.uk/search/all-records But back onto things in Lancashire, Gore's Directory for 1821 in Liverpool(via Ancestry.com) show the following details: 2 Westmoreland Place Bryan Rossiter - Stationer Richard Rossiter - Gentleman Richard Rossiter jr - Clerk in HM Customs That would link in with a Richard Rossiter shown as a witness to the wedding in Liverpool 5 years later. It MIGHT point to Richard being the father, but you should be aware that it may also be a brother, or even uncle. The best free resource for Lancashire parish records is the Online Parish Clerk website: http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ It is worth keeping an eye out for the updates that are sent round the mailing lists, which will tell you of the databases that are added for the county. The current database is substantial, but not yet complete. Hope something in there helps!
