This relates to the last ancestor I found in my tree namely WILLIAM MALKIN born iin Garforth West Yorkshire cerca1750. There is an IGI record of him marrying MARY CATELY on the 12 January 1775 and I have records of the birth and christening of several of his children, one of which I come down from. The marriage information is from an IGI record submitted by an unknown member on Batch number 7123605, Sheet number 65, Call number 0538893. I was led to believe that these submissions were not always reliable but there is also another IGI record by another member, the information being also of the same marriage. Film numer 183542, Page number 777, Reference number 25504. At the time Icould not find any information on the parents of WILLIAM so whether they were from somewhere other than Garforth I do not know, and although I found several MALKIN families in Lancashire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, Worcestershire, there was no way I could link them. The family seem to have been christened mainly at St. Peter's in Leeds I am ever hopeful of being able to go further back in time and maybe your records will show something I missed at the time. Frank Malkin now in the South Hams Devon. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
