This has been a very productive Sunday afternoon; researching on Ancestry.com. I found digitized marriage records for Liverpool, Lancashire, England, Marriages and Banns, 1813-1921 So far I have found original records for: two sets of third great-grandparents. Samuel Hepworth who married Sarah Jackson on 25 Jun 1820 at Saint John, in Wakefield, York, England parents to John and Thomas Hepworth who joined the LDS church in 1850. Thomas is a gggrandfather I will be blogging about the most whenever I get going on this Hepworth line. The other ggggrandparents are; James Fletcher b 16 Feb 1807, he married Julia Lightfoot on 29 Jun 1826 at St. Anne's, in Liverpool, Lancashire, England What's so great about this record is up until now is Julia's maiden name was unknown. Now we know; LIGHTFOOT. Next is Thomas Hepworth b 1826 and Mary Fletcher b1832; As I have posted before they were married 27 Aug 1848 Then John Hepworth b 1822 and Francis Amelia Fletcher b 1828 married 28 Jan 1850 What's so special about the original record, it shows the signature of my ancestors. Only one witness to John Hepworth and Frances Amelia Fletcher marriage cannot write her name; she has an x as her mark, it reads Jane Spencer her x mark. Next post: Naming pattern's of the English and how my ancestors followed the tradition or NOT.   |
