Find Ancestors

im trying to trace harry twin think he was born roughly about 1856, he married susan buckly in 1916 in bury lancashire, not sure if he was married before susan, he died in radcliffe lancashire but not sure were he rooted from all i can find for harry twinn is suffolk, my nana thinks he came from radcliffe but i cant find him on any census form if someone else can find him would be gratefull thankyou x

If you buy his marriage cert to Susan you would have his fathers name and occupation and from that you could work back through the census info and further certs. Do you have the exact date of marriage? At the moment I cant see any Twin(n)/Buckl(e)y marriage at all. Where did you get your basic info from? A birth cert?

thankyou but not to sure on the month they was married do u no any websites that are free to look my ancestory ran out last week x

Freebmd is for free bmd! Are you sure of these facts, did you find their names on a birth cert - or how did you get them?

a lady on ere told me they married in 1916 at bury maybe the info was wrong susan buckley was widowed in 1913 and died in 1933 not sure of harrys death year as yet x

Hi Sara,
I can only find a marriage of a Susan E Buckley to a Alfred E T Reese in 1915 Cannock 6b 1173 June Qrt.

Regards Marilyn

Have a look on freebmd Sara - and may be ask if anyone has lancs bmd - or google for them, in case this marriage isnt on freebmd (its still work in progress)

He was getting on a bit to marry again in 1916 wasnt he - old devil.

thankyou pam and heather, lol heather yes was a bit old to re marry he must of still had a bit of the old charm lol thankyou once again xx

will it have the parents names on the marriage certificates please x

It will have both the fathers names and occupations Sara. From that you can look for Henry (Harry is often a nickname for Henry) in the census info as a child with his parents. It will also have where he was living when they married, what his job was, and also you will have the names of the witnesses which may help when you trace him in the census (if they are a sibling or a parent for instance). Unfortunately its not likely to give you his age - at that age it probably just says "of full age" meaning over 21. But you may be lucky, who knows.

thankyou once again heather really appreciate all your help sara xx

Sara, Ive nudged the tips for newbies thread up for you over on Tips Board, it will help you get an overview on researching :0
