    Exclamation Mary Ellen Ingham

    Hi,

    I have been searching for years for this family I have birth certificates for them but no fathers named

    My Grandmother Mary Ellen Ingham born 12.5.1866 in Ramsbottom Lancashire England.. no name for Father.. Mother Mary Jane Ingham

    My Great Grandmother Mary Jane Ingham born 24.12.1843 in Wranglin Township pof Blackburn Lancashire .. no name for father, mother Ellen Ingham

    My Great Great Grandmother Ellen Ingham born about 1825 in the Blackburn area of Lancashire her father was called John, this is from a marriage certificate to Rueben Swindlehurst in 1847 at the Parish Church Blackburn.

    What I am hoping to find is the Fathers of Mary Jane & Mary Ellen, also if possible the Mother of Ellen Ingham

    Thank you for helping all of us I am sure it's appreciated

    Lancashire OnLine Parish Clerk Project -

    Hi!

    Have you looked at the Lancashire on-line project? Link above. This lists lots of marriages/births etc for some of the churches.

    Hello

    It is likely that the Parish Register ( baptism) may hold the answer to your query.

    Sometimes, the Vicar would make a local entry as to whose 'baseborn' child this is, primarily as the Church would not want to support the child and mother if there was someone else who could support them..... failing that look for Bastardy orders........

    genuki.co.uk will advise you where the Parish records are held and can be searched.

    You say you have the father of one child, have you checked it out? Sometimes brides would add a fathers name for respectability

    Thank you Hazelnut, Rubina, Elsabels & Welshlady for all your help.

    I have got the census's and also I transcribe for Lancahsire Parish Records on Line but sometimes to busy doing that to look for myself!.. the most interesting piece of information is the Baptism found by Welshlady although the date of birth is different (I do have a birth certificate) mistakes were made at times. I shall follow the Baptism up.

    Thanks again for all your help

    Hi Welsh Lady,

    I have contacted the Blackburn co-ordintor for Lancashire Parish Records on line (I transcribe for Blackburn) and she has sent me the piece of film and also checked out the Vicars writting for me and we have concluded that the date of birth should be 24.12 1843, that entry will now be amended to December. So a big thanks for finding Mary Jane Ingham's Baptism.

    Mattygirl
