Hello Alan I thought I was going to be able to help, but I've just seen your second message with the amended spelling of the name your researching. My family came from an adjacent parish, Lilleshall, which lies to the north of Shiffal. Below are the names I've recorded whilst doing my research, names in caps are my direct antecedents. They're probably of no use to you now but I thought I'd include them anyway as they might be relevant to someone else.

Alan, "Nicholds" might be correct, but it's very possible that it is an error on the certificate. My great grandparent's marriage certificate spelled his family name wrong. Misspelling and incorrect copying were not that uncommon.

When I posted my query on the mail-list I was sure I had the right name for my g-grndmother, Cecilia. Yesterday I received a copy of a marriage cert, for Cecilia's mother and father and it shows that the surname spelling is NICHOLDS. As they were married in Shiffnal, Shrop.

I saw this on another list thought someone might find it useful Sharon Standards For Sound Genealogical Research Recommended by the National Genealogical Society http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/ 4527 17th Street North Arlington, Virginia 22207-2399 Remembering always that they are engaged in a quest for truth, family history researchers consistently- -record the source for each item of information they collect. -test every hypothesis or theory against credible evidence, and reject those that are not supported by the evidence. -seek original records, or reproduced images of them when there is reasonable assurance they have not been altered, as the basis for their research conclusions. -use compilations, communications and published works, whether paper or electronic, primarily for their value as guides to locating the original records. -state something as a fact only when it is supported by convincing evidence, and identify the evidence when communicating the fact to others. -limit with words like "probable" or "possible" any statement that is based on less than convincing evidence, and state the reasons for concluding that it is probable or possible. -avoid misleading other researchers by either intentionally or carelessly distributing or publishing inaccurate information. -state carefully and honestly the results of their own research, and acknowledge all use of other researchers' work. -recognize the collegial nature of genealogical research by making their work available to others through publication, or by placing copies in appropriate libraries or repositories, and by welcoming critical comment. -consider with open minds new evidence or the comments of others on their work and the conclusions they have reached. ©1997 by National Genealogical Society.

I am researching Arthur NICHOLLS and his family. Arthur is my Great Grandfather.The information that I have so far is that Arthur was born in 1847 in Norwich, Norfolk (source World Connect Project, Rootsweb) although detail that I have from the 1891 census puts his birth date as 1842 the same age as his wife Charlotte Marie Johnson. I have located Charlotte in the 1851 cenus (Norfolk) her father being Joshua Johnson and mother was Harriet Johnson, they lived at Grimstone, Freebridge Lynn, Norfolk. I cannot locate Arthur NICHOLLS in the 1851 cenus of Norfolk. Arthur and Charlotte had 9 children. Horace W NICHOLLS b17/2/1867 in Cambridge, Ernest F NICHOLLS b1869 in Cambridge, Gertrude E NICHOLLS b 1871 in Cambridge, Mabel E NICHOLLS b 1874 in Cambridge, Herbert Arthur NICHOLLS b 1876 in Cambridge, Gilbert E NICHOLLS b 1878 in Sandown Isle of Wight, Stanley Hugh NICHOLLS b 1879 in Sandown Isle of Wight Harold Edgar NICHOLLS b 30/5/1881 in Sandown Isle of Wight and Frank Percival NICHOLLS b 6/5/1883 in Sandown Isle of Wight. Harold Edgar is my Grandfather. I know 3 lines in this family ie Horace W NICHOLLS, Stanley Hugh NICHOLLS and of course Harold Edgar NICHOLLS. >From a biography written about Horace W NICHOLLS ("The Golden Summer - The Edwardian Photographs of Horace W Nicholls" by Gail Buckland) I know Arthur's family lived in Newnham Grove, Grantchester, Cambridge. Arthur and his brother Henry were Photographers along with Horace, Mabel, Herbert, Gilbert and Stanley. Arthur had a family Photography business in Marine Terrace, Sandown Isle of Wight. In the 1891 census of Isle of Wight the family home was in Cyprus Villa, Fitzroy St. Sandown. I would like information on Arthurs ancesters as well as information on Arthur's 6 other children. I would appreciate anything as my research has "hit the wall". Regards.............................Bob Nicholls, South Australia
