Desparatley seeking Hurmston(e) / Urmston(e) in Chester

[humbug]

I have a marriage certificate for John Emery and Mary Ann Humstone (although it is VERY difficult to read due to the handwriting) in 1847 in Eccles

I have a birth cert for their daughter, Mary Emery born 1850 in Pendleton - father john and mother Mary Ann Emery formerly Humstone / Hurmstone

I have tracked Mary Ann Hurmstone / Humston or whoever post marriage and her birth was always in Chester, on the marriage cert her father is Samuel and is a farmer and she resided in Pendleton

It is sometimes transcibed as Urmston hence my title and in the census she is stated as being born 1825/6 in chester

I cannot trace Mary ann or Samuel on the 1841 census either in cheshire or Pendleton and I can't find anything on the IGI either of a christening or a marriage of Sam

Has anyone any advice please of where I can start looking??

No,...Australian made, but if I can't find my own Paternal Family I'll jolly well try to help someone else do so.......Great geography lessons.
Some of my favourite Authors are Liverpudlians.

I only wish every one would put in the County they are researching in & not just the village etc. as I have to 'Google' nearly every time I look for something, except around Surrey/ London.I'm becoming quite familiar with much of that area.

Hope your disc is a help.

I'll second that thought.:)

Thanks waitabit

Just updating this post -I have been looking on the updated family pilot and have now located a birth of Mary Ann HUMPSTON christened 1825 in St Oswald's Chester. Also a William HUMSTON christened 1823 in the same church - both to parents Samuel Humston(e) and Ann
I have also located a marriage in the same church - Samuel HUMSTONE and Ann Harrison!!

On to the next brick wall!!!!

Well done you Humbug. I've a fondness for St.Oswalds as some of my Lancs lot began life records there.

We're having a 30somethingnasty deg.day here after 37s & 38degs. having hung out the wash, & brought it backin I'm ready to relax & scroll thro' this nice relaxing forum.
