Can someone try and find Sarah Checkley probably from Great Yarmouth in either 1841/51 census she will be a child possibly around 6/16?
I know its a bit of a stab in the dark
Thanks

there are a few sarah checkleys but cant see one from anywhere near great yarmouth. have you any more info on her that would enable us to help?
Well I thought that William John Berry 1858-1933 had married a Sarah Harriet Jacob but someone has suggested his first wife was Sarah Checkley but no dates/details
umm.. tree on anc**** has him marrying her in 1892 but i cant see the marriage yet. when do you have the amrriage of sarah jacob?
England & Wales, FreeBMD Marriage Index: 1837-1915
Name: William Berry Year of Registration: 1893
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Leicester (1837-1974)
County: Leicestershire Volume: 7a Page: 421
Spouse: Harriet Jacob
This marriage seems to be in Leicester and I think the family were fairly settled in Great Yarmouth so wondering if this is just the wrong marriage and I need to be looking for a marriage between William and Sarah Checkley
ok using their tree as a guide-
Name:Sarah Harriet CheckleyYear of Registration:1892Quarter of Registration:Apr-May-JunDistrict:Leicester (1837-1974)County:LeicestershireVolume:7aPage:485
one groom missing.
Name:William John BerryYear of Registration:1892Quarter of Registration:Apr-May-JunDistrict:Leicester (1837-1974)County:LeicestershireVolume:7aPage:4_5
so that looks like the marriage .
there is a child born to sarah before marriage
Name:Sarah H CheckleyAge:30Estimated birth year:abt 1861RelationaughterFather's name:Thomas CheckleyMother's name:Sarah CheckleyGender:FemaleWhere born:Leicester, Leicestershire, EnglandCivil Parish:St MargaretEcclesiastical parish:St PeterCounty/Island:LeicestershireCountry:England

So looks like i had the surname wrong for the marriage - thanks Welshlady - Now to track some Checkleys!
mind you the tree also has him married to lydia whiley first - doesnt give a date but has them having children in yarmouth from 1876 to 1884. dont know how this fits in with your family knowledge etc
note the sarah checkley marrriage also takes place in leicester but the tree has lydia marrying in great yarmouth in 1904??
