yorkshire look up please in penistone 1837 census.
i am looking for my 3 x g grandmother Margery Kay b 1827 .her mother was supposed to be Harriet Kay...which,presumably makes Margery illegitimate.any info on either would be appreciated.Margery married James Williamson about 1843....he was from Hyde,but their children were born in Glossop.thanks.allan;)

[Harrys mum]

Sorry Allan.......do you want a 1841 lookup?

[Elaine ..Spain]

The 1841 census shows a Margry Kay (Ancestry transcription!) born c 1826 living in Penistone, Yorkshire with George Kay, aged 15, Charlotte Marsden aged 28, Sarah Marsden aged 20 and Henry Wagstaff aged 10

thanks libby/elaine...i`m sorry elaine,but i can`t answer that...i presume in a village like penistone,its my rellie...if george is her brother,that would make them twins??...allan

[Harrys mum]

Can't find a suitable Harriet. There are a couple of maybes, but one is married and has a 15 year old with her (not Margery).

[Elaine ..Spain]

Is this the marriage of James and Margery? (from freeBMD)

Marriages Jun 1851
Kaye Margery
Williamson James
Hayfield vol 19 page 581

[BigShaz McCreadie]

Found Margery on IGI but couldn't find a George born to Harriet round the same time.

[Elaine ..Spain]

In 1851 Margery Kay, b c1825, Penistone, Yorkshire is an inmate at the Glossop Union Workhouse - so the marriage in 1851 2nd quarter would probably fit.

thankyou girls....yes ,thats the marriage..a little puzzled though..Charlotte Williamson(my 2 x g grandmother) was b in 1851...but i have a Charles Williamson b 1844 as the eldest child...this would make margery 18 when she had charles..would charles have been born and lived in the workhouse for 7 years???...allan..ADDED...shaz..does it have margery`s mother as Harriet on igi?...allan

[Elaine ..Spain]

There is a Charles Kay aged 6, therefore born c1845, living with Margery in the Workhouse - so presume he was an illegitimate child who took the name of Williamson following the marriage in 1851.

Charles was born Glossop, Derbyshire.

[BigShaz McCreadie]

Yes Allan although spelt Hariet

[Elaine ..Spain]

.does it have margery`s mother as Harriet on igi?...allan

From the IGI (free to view at FamilySearch.org - Family History and Genealogy Records)

MARGY KAY
Christening: 1 October 1826 - Penistone, Yorkshire.
Mother Hariet Kay

[garstonite]

thankyou both...just been on igi...hariet kay as mother....so would you presume that margy was illegitimate as well as charles?........i`m not going to find my 4 x g grandfather then am i?...lol...allan:D:D

[BigShaz McCreadie]

Charles seems to be with Margy in Glossop in 1851 and he is a Kay.

[Elaine ..Spain]

.......i`m not going to find my 4 x g grandfather then am i?...lol...allan:D:D

It's not looking too hopeful!

[garstonite]

thanks shaz...well thank you all for your help...but i think i`ve come to a bit of a standstill on margery/harriet now.....don`t think i`ll ever find their fathers...if anyone has any tips on how to find harriets parents,please advise me.....regards...allan
