Hi Caz, If you happen to spot Mary BARRACLOUGH who married Thomas ROBINSON on August 7th, 1809 in Pontefract, or any of their children on that Tong parish film, I'd love to hear about it. They named one of their children Charles John Tempest ROBINSON, christened September 13,1835 in Birstall. I'm told some Barraclough family members rented some cottages at Tong Hall (on the Penny Close farm) from a Colonel Thomas Richare Plume TEMPEST, but I've yet to determine if they are connected to mine. I'm still struggling to figure out who Mary's parents were. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Best regards, Sherry Shallenberger

These two Sheffield girls are supposed to have been adopted and it would have been between 1867 and 1880. Would there be any records available about this operation and if so how could one consult them? Thanks, Norman G.

Does anybody know where Sir Douglas Mawson was born (5 May 1882) in Bradford? Mike Dinn -- Canberra

There's no sign of her on the 1841 census in England, she was most probably still in Scotland. Scottish census returns can be found on http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ .

She appears in the 1861 census for Roberts St as a 22 year old now with a married name of Grainger with a 9 month old daughter, Elizabeth H Grainger. Her husband is not included. In subsequent censuses she is not with her husband either. in 1901 she is described as a widow and lives in Blackpool. Any help appreciated. Many thanks Ron Armour.

Hi Norman, The only one that is coming up on FreeBMD is in the last quarter of 1838 in Totnes, Devon which cross refs with Mary Hosking. The only other marriage for a James Petherbridge is 1839 last quarter, but it doesn't cross ref to a Mary. FreeBMD have covered all the indexes up to the census time except all of 1838 last quarter and1839 last quarter, so I checked those manually. I rechecked the 1841 census and Mary was definitely born in the county of Yorkshire, so it looks like they were married before 1837 or not married of course.

The only Platerous Jacques that is coming up was born 1864 in Keighley, so he won't be on any census returns before 1871. He doesn't seem to have the brothers you list on the 71 or 81 though. Do you have any dates of birth for any of these people?

Can you please find a marriage reference for me for this couple? Probably 1840, probably Bradford I would hazard. By the way, I am waiting much more than a month for certificates from Southport. Is this normal? Thanks, Norman G. 1841 census; Horton; James PETHERBRIDGE, 25 [b. Devon] Mary PETHERBRIDGE, 20, b. Yorkshire; Elizabeth PETHERBRIDGE, 6 months, b. Yorkshire.

Why is Esther called SHACKLETON? Ann looks to be Ann BAISTOW who married John ANDERSON in Bradford in 1842 when he was 21 and she was 20. All my ideas look daft. Thanks, Norman G. 1851 census; 3 Mason Street, Horton; Anderson, John; Head, Mar., M, 29, Woolcomber, Leicester; Anderson, Ann; Wife, Mar., F, 28, - ,Yorks., Bradford; Shackleton, Esther; Daur., - , F, 1, - , Yorks., Bradford.

Could she be another daughter of the next-door-neighbours, William & Harriett Shackleton? Or maybe an enumerator's error - since she's been carried over to the next page, the enumerator may have mistakenly added the wrong surname... just a thought! Have you found her in later census?
