Could you please look for a marriage for parents of Caroline Lenton.She was baptized 20/07/1823 St Mary's Nottingham.Parents names are Samuel Lenton and Ann ?.I am trying to find mother's maiden name.I know Ann was born Retford. Also would it be possible to find a death for Samuel Lenton as Ann had remarried by 1830. Many Thanks Julie.

Hi Charles, The date fits perfectly and father matches the marriage cert I have for George. Does the register have any siblings of George at all? Kind Regards Matt

Hi Charles, Thanks for your kind offer, could you possibly look for a death for James Plant, between 1841 and 1851, he was a lacemaker. He married Sarah Holloway in 1838 Crich, Derbyshire. The 1841 census shows the family living at Basford, Nottinghamshire. By 1851 both Sarah and James were dead and there son George was living in Tamworth, Staffordshire. Thanks for your time Marlene.

ARE YOU ABLE TO LOOK UP MANSFIELD RECORDS

hi charles thank you for the marriage i assume you found it at the methodist church? i am methodist and these days we baptise children and keep records we also do adult baptisims. perhaps the register is not available thanks heeps jeannette

Thanks very much; I have noted it down as a possibility to explore later. x Jen

The nearest match that I have is: Thomas WHITE married Sarah FOSTER on 25/12/1897 at Bulwell St Mary. No guarantees that this is your couple. I don't have any matches for a birth in Est Retford around the relevant time.

Hi Charles Just gave my aunt a shock by phoning her for the first time ever! She says Thomas' wife was Sarah, but she didn't know the surname. Thanks for your help, much appreciated. Jen

Hi Jen Unfortunately, there are a great many Whites. Do you have a christian name for his wife or any other info so that I can narrow the search down please.

Hello Charles Thanks for this offer. This is a long shot but could you please look for a Thomas White in East Retford? I suspect he is the father of Ethel Margaret White, but she wasn't born till 1907. Going on living memory, some of Thomas' other children were Flo, Clara, Frank, Herbert, Molly, Jane, Aime and Mick. Sorry it's vague but this is my dad's side, that I have hardly even looked at! Thanks again. Jen

charles thankyou so much the plot thickens lol. you have been great,thankyou susie
