Is anyone researching the Ellis family of Rawcliffe and Rawcliffe Bridge WRY? I am especially interested in William Ellis and his family. This family originally may have come from either DRAX or HOWDEN William ELLIS. Born in 1750 (circa) in West Yorkshire, exact location unknown. William died in 1805; he was 55. Buried on 22 Feb 1805 in Rawcliffe. Occupations: Labourer (Circa 1792+), Labourer, Pauper (Circa 1783 To 1787), Bank Maker (Circa 1777). Religion: Church of England. In 1776 (circa) when William was 26, he married Hannah (surname ?), in Yorkshire (exact location unknown). She was born in 1755, location unknown. Hannah died in Rawcliffe in 1825; she was 70. They had the following children: Mary (1777-1842). On 11 Nov 1794 Mary married Thomas GRAVES Elizabeth (1779-?) William (1781-1782) William (1783-1836). On 23 Jul 1805 William married Mary ELLERTHORPE Ann (1785-?) Abraham (1787-1826). On 19 Jan 1807 Abraham married Martha BOTTOMS Thomas (1788-1788) Thomas (1789-?). On 3 Oct 1809 Thomas married Mary COLEWELL Hannah (1792-1867). On 25 Apr 1824 Hannah married Thomas ECCLES Fanny (1794-?). On 22 Jun 1819 Fanny married Henry GOODALL John (1796-1849). On 3 Mar 1818 John married Mary MOODY Samuel (1799-1873). On 29 Dec 1818 Samuel married Betty HOLLAND Cheers, William Ellis _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

No, it's not too late. I haven't even started doing lookups yet because my father just had surgery and was in the hospital two weeks instead of 3-5 days. I also have a grandchild on the way and had an unexpected legal problem today I had to take care of instead of go to the family history center. I would appreciate it if you would check www.familysearch.org click on search, then International Genealogy Index and see if you can find this marriage. That will point me to the right spot on the film.

Hi Lola, Futher to what Peter Appleton said in his message about finding the PRs for Boosbeck at Teesside Archives you might find the follwoing website useful. It is for Tees Valley Registrars indexes, covering Hartlepool, Stockton On Tees, Guisborough Redcar, Cleveland and Middlesbrough registrars areas. You might find, by reading the information pages on this site before you begin searching, that the years and events you are looking for are covered in the index and therefore have success in finding the Husband & Agar marriage about 1911. Go to http://www.teesvalley-indexes.co.uk/ This was formerly the "Middlesbrough Indexes" website which covered the same areas but it has recently been updated and more years for BMDs have been added it seems for most of the areas included in this index. If you don't have success with this site then you might also find the FreeBMD site useful, this site is not complete so read the home page to begin with to get an idea of what is what about the site first. http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/ Good Luck Jenny DeAngelis.

Hi Margaret, Forgive me if I am asking a stupid question but, are you sure you are looking in the right Skelton? The GENUKI web site gives links for 13 different places in Yorkshire that include in their name the word "Skelton". If you are sure that the Skelton for you is Skelton-in-Cleveland in the North Riding of Yorkshire then the only church in the village is All Saints and the registers are held locally at Teesside Archives which is just 20 minutes from where I live. I don't have much reason at present to research in the Teesside Archives but, next time I'm there, I'll check the PR for Skelton All Saints for the marriage of John Taylor and Ellis Lockwood around 1830. (If I search 1830 +/- 5 years would that suffice?) Another possibility would be a non-conformist marriage. I've had need to follow this path with some of my own ancestors but the Methodist records for the Redcar, Saltburn and Guisborough Circuits (which include Skelton and the outlying villages) have been kept only from the mid-1830s. So this might prove to be a dry well before we even begin. regards, Peter -----Original Message----- From: Mml45@aol.com [mailto:Mml45@aol.com] Sent: 12 September 2003 17:12 To: ENG-NORTH-YORKS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: RE: [N'Yorks]: LOCKWOOD &TAYLOR In a message dated 9/12/2003 9:51:36 AM Eastern Standard Time, peter.appleton3@ntlworld.com writes: > the parish register for All Saints, > Skelton-in-Cleveland.

I have found a number of marriages in my families which took place just before and during 1914-18, with, apparently, no children being born to the couples in the immediate years following and I am wondering if the marriages took place before the men went off to war. Can anyone offer suggestions, please?

It's shouting, bad manners (Netiquette) and hard to find surnames. ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
