JOHN NICHOLSON was christened at Wheldrake Yorkshire in April 1775 Father THOMAS NICHOLSON, Mother ELIZABETH HARRISON. He married ELIZABETH COOK on 01 Aug 1803 at Wheldrake, Yorkshire, England. Their children including my ancestor ELEANOR, were born in HULL. According to the HULL census JOHN NICHOLSON was a publican/licensed vitualler. In 1834 he was at the Grapes, Lower Union Street, Hull. The IGI shows that ELIZABETH COOK was baptised at Holy Trinity GOODRAMGATE, YORK in 1776 but there are no other details. I would appreciate if anyone on the list has any further information regarding her parents. I will attempt to apply for a copy of the parish register but really need more details. I have already received loads of help from this list and recently visited beautiful YORKSHIRE including YORK. Marj Howland - BOOMERANG BEACH, NSW AUSTRALIA
