Hi suey.. cannot find a birth for a George Burridge b 1775 at Scalby, Yorks, how sure are you about his year and place of birth?
I did find a George Berridge ch St Mary's Kingston upon Hull Father Jonathon 12/2/1771. Could it be a possibility his name has been transcribed wrongly? Is he on any of the earlier census'es?

Hi Suey and pejay,

I can't find any Burrages/Burridges on Hugh Wallis born Scalby either. Can't find a George Burrage born Yorks any spelling on 1851.
Have you got a death for him?
Could he have come from Norfolk?
I can do you a very nice line in Burrages from Norfolk. (Weavers.... your George might have gone from Norfolk t' Yorkshire mills when jobs got scarce.)
Several baptisms of a George Burrage around 1770-5 on LDS but not Yorkshire.

It looks as though pejay's find is a good possible.
Any children called Jonathan in George's family?
I expect you have Mary Sanderson's birth/christening.... if not it is(possibly) 10th Dec 1775, father John Sanderson. C 106412

hi He died around 1830/31 in Stickford lincs but he has on his marriage details as born scalby.... I shall keep searching,lol could end up in Ireland again yet,lol. Thankyou for all your help everyone xxxx Yes thats my Mary thankyou xxxx.

his Children were William b1803, George b1813, Henry b1817, Matthew b1815 & Charlotte (unknown date as yet)and there was Mary b1801-1802.Children born Stickford.

Just a thought Suey there is a place near Brigg in Lincs called Scawby is that worth a try?

yes I kow that place my Horsteads are from around there,lol why can't families stay in one place,lol it would make life so much easier for us don't you think,lol.

Hi Suey, does the marriage entry in the Parish Register definitely say born in Scalby, you sure it doesn't say of Scalby, or abode Scalby? This could make a big difference, as to be entered as of a place or living in an abode in a place doesn't mean they were born there, a person only needed to reside in a town for a very short time (I think it was 3 weeks) to be considered for the purpose of marriage as being of the town.

No help whatsoever to we family historians were they? Little beggars, I bet they have a great time laughing their socks off at our going round in circles trying to pin them down.
