  • Lindley Wright b 1844

    I am trying to find out the maiden name of Lindley's wife, Lindley was born in Ecclesall Bierlow Sheffield. West Yorkshire abt 1844- d1898.
    I have found a marriage which names his spouse as Hannah but does not give her maiden name nor marriage date, just that the marriage took place in Ecclesall Sheffield. I thought that the marriage may have taken place abt 1870
    I have searched Ancestry, Family Search.org, FMP, and Rootsweb. with no luck.
    His Occupation was a Silversmith.

    His parents where
    Father John Wright b 1817
    Mother Ann Wright b1822
    Children
    Harry Wright b1865
    Amy Wright b1872-1926
    Frank Wright 1877-1947
    If anyone has any information I would be most grateful.

    kind Regards

    Tony

    Looks like he married Sarah Harriet Goodman in 1893. Frank's birth is registered with mmn Goodman. I cannot find the other two, maybe they weren't registered.

      The 1893 marriage is on Ancestry - West Yorkshire Marriages.

      That Lindley Wright was aged 20, the son of Francis Wright, a mason.

            Where did you find that marriage, Tony?
            There is absolutely nothing between 1861 and 1891 remotely like a lindsey, Lyn* Lin* with anything that looks like Wright etc marrying. I guess they didn't marry.

              Weird, the 1873 Lyndley,s birth isn't registered.

              I agree, they probably just didn't marry. Perhaps Hannah was already married.

                Hi Tony,

                I noticed that that Harry born 1864 was recorded as Henry in the 1871 census. I decided to search for Harry/ Henry, Frank/Francis, and Amy looking for the same mothers maiden name.

                Using gro.gov.uk

                Henry Wright mmn CUTTS
                Sept Q 1864
                Ecclesall Bierlow 9c- 241

                Amy Wright mmn CUTTS
                March Q 1871
                Sheffield 9c- 382

                Frank Wright mmn CUTTS
                March Q 1877
                Ecclesall Bierlow 9c - 400

                Freebmd - marriages

                Hannah Cutts
                Martha Weston
                Francis Sambrook
                Henry Lindley Wright
                March Q 1864
                Rotherham 9C- 574

                Martha Sambrook
                death Sept Q 1870, Rotherham

                1871 Frank Sambrook , widow, visitor, Rawmarsh Yorkshire

                So it would appear that Hannah Cutts married Henry Lindley Wright.

                    Oh, nice one BC! I did wonder if he was using another first name but couldn't focus on anything.

                        Great piece of research for this and the children's births leading to mother's maiden name - well done!

                          I had the day off, and unusually the phone didn't ring once,l was the only one home, so my time was my own.

                          Plus, because of the time difference, the forum usually solves before I get a chance. I call you the FFs- short for Fantastic Finders.

                          I just love GRO for putting in mmn, makes searching so much easier.

                          Yorkshire not being my strong point, l was wondering if there were parish records for the marriage, so that it could be confirmed that it was the right marriage.

                          Off to make breakfast and then work.

                          Enjoy your evenings,

                            Hello Katarzyna,

                            I haven't found a marriage record I saw the information in a census which just mentioned his spouse and assumed that they were married.

                            Kind Regards

                            Tony

                              Lindley Wright b 1844

                              Hello bcbrit,

                              A HUGE thank you for the information that you have provided, I was beginning to think that Lindley and Hannah never married.
                              I also wondered whether his first name was different but called by what name?.
                              I have spent a lot of time searching various site's but alas only using Lindley as the forename and not getting anywhere, and for you to come up with this information in such a short time is Brilliant, Thank you so much.

                              Kind Regards

                              Tony

                                Re Lindley Wright,

                                Thank you for your time and research.

                                  Good finds bcbrit

                                  Tony - a tip for the future. If you think a name might not be the first name, go on FreeBMD and in the 'First name(s)' box type a + symbol immediately before the name that you know.

                                  So, eg. put Wright and then +Lindley. You'll get several results including those where Lindley is the first or middle name

                                    Hello Jackie,

                                    Thank you very much for the tip I have written it down in my reference book. All tips are gratefully accepted, I think it was bcbrit who referred to the Forum Transcribers as the Fantastic Finders so very true.
