Same question that elaine said for me pam, i'v seen people do loads of lookups on here but wondered what you can search for? LMP :)

Not daft, I should have explained it better! BIVRI is British Isles Vital Records Index and contains 5 million births, christenings an marriages dating from 1538 to 1888. It is only partial though so as I said its a bit hit and miss. Not entirely sure myself which areas it covers so its just a case of 'try it and see'. Pam

OH ok then, well then i'm looking for the birth of James Ford born about 1848 in hatfield, hertfordshire, and a marriage for a william charles read between 1854-1864 in surrey (maybe london?) married to an ellen ? they were both born about 1838 in surrey! Any help would be wonderful!! LMP :)

Little Miss, Closest I could find on the birth was a James FORD christened 30/08/1840. Father Henry Ford and mother Eliza. Recorded in Rickmansworth, Hertford... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Unfortunatley a blanket search on Wm. Read and Ellen brought up nothing close. Pam

Pam, Thanks for your kind offer. Can I ask for 2 lookups please? I hope you don't mind me being cheeky! I am looking for the birth of Phylis/Felicia Spittle. She was born in the Sedgley area of Staffordshire sometime between Sept 1868 and Jan 1870. I am also looking for the death of her sister, Madona Spittle. She appears on the 1871 census aged 8 months and then dissapears. Any help will be great. pat

Dear Pat, Regarding Madona, this index doesn't cover deaths i'm afraid. There are a few Spittles listed in Staffordshire which I have entered below but nothing that looks like phylis/Felicia. However, if you want me to get the birth/christening dates on any of the below just add to the thread again. thanks SPITTLE, Rebecca Chr 1820 STAF Fa: Samuel SPITTLE Mo: Sophia SPITTLE Bertha SPITTLE William Harriet C033976 689450 SPITTLE, Bertha Chr 1846 STAF Fa: William SPITTLE Mo: Harriet SPITTLE Bertha SPITTLE William Harriet C033976 689651 SPITTLE, Bertha Chr 1847 STAF Fa: William SPITTLE Mo: Harriet SPITTLE Henry SPITTLE Joseph Sarah C145731 1613402 SPITTLE, Henry Bir 1847 <STAF> Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Sarah SPITTLE Ann SPITTLE William Harriet C033976 689990 SPITTLE, Ann Maria Bir 1848 <STAF> Fa: William SPITTLE Mo: Harriet SPITTLE Samuel SPITTLE Joseph Sarah C145731 1614229 SPITTLE, Samuel Bir 1851 <STAF> Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Sarah SPITTLE Edward SPITTLE Joseph Sarah C009989 389525 SPITTLE, Edward Walden Bir 1854 <STAF> Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Sarah SPITTLE Joseph SPITTLE Joseph Ann C009989 390119 SPITTLE, Joseph John Bir 1857 <STAF> Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Ann SPITTLE William SPITTLE Joseph Sarah C009989 390219 SPITTLE, William Bir 1857 <STAF> Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Sarah SPITTLE Charles SPITTLE Joseph Ann C009989 390345 SPITTLE, Charles Chr 1858 STAF Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Ann SPITTLE Joseph SPITTLE Hamon Martha C009989 391400 SPITTLE, Joseph Richard Bir 1861 <STAF> Fa: Heman SPITTLE Mo: Martha SPITTLE Joseph SPITTLE Joseph Sarah C009989 391322 SPITTLE, Joseph Chr 1864 STAF Fa: Joseph SPITTLE Mo: Sarah SPITTLE Emily SPITTLE Hamon Martha C009989 391401 SPITTLE, Emily Phoebe Bir 1864 <STAF> Fa: Heman SPITTLE Mo: Martha

Hi Pam Could you kindly look up William Heaton bn abt 1817 in Bolton By Bowland, Yorkshire? Also any christening information that you may be able to find for him. Father's name Henry Heaton (we think) Thanks Carole

LMP, again the only one close for George FORD was in Rickmansworth as follows: -------------------------------------------------------- FORD, George Christening Sex: Male Christening Date: 6 Sep 1857 Recorded in: Rickmansworth, Hertford, England Father: Daniel FORD Mother: Mary Source: FHL Number 1040657 Dates: 1832-1886 As for Lucy Holley, nothing for Lucy and Edward but there was a Lucy Hollley going much further back who married John MATON on 18/10/1721. THis was recorded in Fovant (?Forant), Wiltshire. Sorry not being much help. Pam

Dear Carole, Nothing definate but I have found 3 possibles around the time. Firstly Bolton by Bowland is in Lancashire and not Yorkshire. Just type into google and you will get loads of sites telling you about the place. William HEATON christened 10/11/1811. Father John HEATON and mother Ann. Recorded in Bolton Le Sands, Lancashire. William HEATON born 26/10/1816, Christened 24/11/1816, father Richard HEATON and mother Betty. Recorded in Winwick, Lancashire. William HEATON born 30/05/1819, Christened 18/07/1819. Father Robert HEATON and mother Jane. Recorded at Winwick, Lancashire. Hope it helps. Pam
