I went to the Sheffield FHS Fair on Saturday & was a little disappointed as the Lincs FHS weren't there & I have no ancestors in South Yorks. It was good to see Ron & Carol from Genealogy Printers though. They had a table with a couple of expert researchers & one asked me if I had any brickwalls, so I told her about my ggg grandma, Mary Anderton nee Lowe, who vanishes after giving birth to her 6th daughter, my gg grandmother Septiana. I explained that I had looked for her death & burial, with no joy. She suggested that I widen the area I was looking at, I had previously looked for her death & marriage only in North Lincs, where Mary lived. She said that if I could find Mary's family, that might help find her burial. I didn't have much hope with this, but yesterday asked on Rootschat, for a Lincs marriage look up & this morning, I find that they have found the marriage in Asgarby, which is mid Lincs & an area I wouldn't have thought to look at before. Although I still haven't found her death, at least I know know where to look for her baptism!

Quite a lot of the N Lincs marriages for the early part of registration (1837-1850) are in Excel databases which you can download.
If you can't find the link on the WIki, let me know and I'll look it out of my Bookmarks (when I get home).

Well he didn't marry her until later that year, but as it happens she was Mrs Anderton anyway, having been married to another Anderton & widowed. She then goes off & shacks up with another man, who she marrys when Edward dies.
I know which site you mean Christine, but the marriage was 1831 anyway & not in N Lincs. It is Mary's death I am looking forLynn

Originally posted by Lynn The Forest Fan View PostI have just noticed that I never mentioned Barton upon Humber in my first post. Has Merry been using special powers, to get that information, or do I just go on about having rellies in Barton all the time? :o

It certainly looks like there should have been another child, I had thought that they might have had one between their marriage & having Jane in 1832, (she was baptised Sept 1832), but with them marrying in Dec 1831, there wouldn't have been time. I have searched the parish records & can only find the 6 children baptised.Lynn
