Hi T, Greetings - I would respectfully appreciate your help.
My (4 X) Great Grandfather was JAMES RILEY born 1801 at Wigan and married ABIGAIL BAMBER at Chifley Lancashire. in 1821. Abigail was born in 1801 at Wigan.

The father of JAMES RILEY was THOMAS RILEY whom I think was born in 1782 at St John Preston and married MARGARET GARNER on 5 June 1801 at Huyton Roby Lancs. Margaret Garner was born in 1780 at Huyton Roby Lancashire.

ANOTHER SOURCE says that THOMAS RILEY was born in 1770 and married MARGARET JOHNWOOD who was born at Chorley Wigan Lancashire.


I am also seeking the details of the parents and grandparents
of JAMES BAMBER, born at Wigan about 1761. He married MARY LONGWORTH who was born at Westhoughton Lancs about 1765. They were married at Wigan on 31 January 1786

Thank you, Bill

Hi T,
I was wondering if you could help me find my ancestors: George Keyte Thompson married Frances Ellen Olliffe. I have no birthdates or marriage date. Their son Charles Keyte Thompson was born in Sydney approx 1862. George was a Master Mariner. I know they both had died prior to 1902. Again I do not know where?
Regards....Carole

If you have time, could you check the wills to see if there is any record of Stephen Thompson who lived/died in Aughton near Aston, South Yorkshire and died in 1825, he was a shoemaker.

Many thanks

Morning T

Apologies for my late response, thank you so much for all that DIGBY information. I will take the time to digest, hopefully something will throw a light on the elusive marriage of John DIGBY and Catherine Landers.

Hi T,

Many thanks for your kind offer, I am looking for the marriage abt 1815 between John DIGBY and Catherine LANDERS.

John was an essex boy so I am assuming it may be in Essex but then again a lot gravitated down to London & surrounds.

I have all the information on the family from 1821 Braintree Essex Census onwards but their marriage still eludes me.

Kind regards

Helen
