Find Ancestors

Born abt 1864 Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. Married 1888 to Mary Ward. I have plenty of time to do some research for a family relative now. The above is drawing a blank everywhere, bdm, ancestry, free family search. Someone mentioned this site and it looks good. I just need proof of birth etc. If I can get that and a page vol etc, I will order a certificate. At the moment I have nothing on his birth, only proof 3 censuses. I would be very grateful if anyone can be of help. Be great to get his parents which I should be able to do from his marriage cert. He doesn't exist at birth. Thank you. :-)

Have you looked for variants of the surname?

GR isn't much use as a research site..............it's main benefit is mutual help

Until 1875, there were no penalties for not registering births, so his may simply not have been recorded

WARD, FRANCES MAUD -
GRO Reference: 1898 D Quarter in KINGS NORTON Volume 06C Page 398

there is no marriage or death for a george huburn if he is named has williams father

mothers name not given on marriage cert.

Well I have looked and looked and I can't find anymore.

Neither can I.
Tried all sorts of alternative spellings for the surname .

He seems not to have existed before he married Mary.
Perhaps he was born with another name, and then his mother married a Huburn - or alternative spelling.

I have just found this on Ancestry.

Name: George Huburn
Event Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 30 May 1825
Baptism Date: 30 May 1825
Baptism Place: Kettleshulme, Cheshire, England
Denomination: Wesleyan
Father:
William Huburn
Mother:
Leah Huburn


As his father was William and they had naming patterns in those years I wonder if this is the father of William Huburn 1863??

Just a thought.

This is a different transcription of the same record Mel.

Name: George Hulme
Gender: Male
Birth Date: 30 May 1825
Baptism Date: 30 May 1825
Baptism Place: Wesleyan,Kettleshulme,Cheshire,England
Father: William Hulme
Mother: Leah
FHL Film Number: 0020045 (RG4 2092)

I think this is the burial of the mother and the family is living in Mottram.

Leah
Last name Hulme
Gender Female
Age 51
Birth year 1790
Death year -
Burial year 1841
Burial date 02 Apr 1841
Death place Mottram
County Cheshire

The image of the baptism is on Ancestry, and the surname is clearly HULME, unfortunately
