Is there anyone researching this family in North Nottinghamshire. It is my husband's paternal line and I knew very little about them.

My father in law Albert Henry was born in 1890 YKS Swallownest, and his younger brother Percy in 1892 YKS Sheffield. So far as I ever knew, these were the only two children. Their father, William, was born in 1860 NTT Ranby, son of Henry and Sarah, and Henry was born c1825 NTT Worksop, according to 1881 Census. However, they were a railway family and moved about.

In 1881 Henry and Sarah were living NTT Babworth, and in 1901 William and Sarah were living DBY Staveley.

I am missing the two marriages, Henry to Sarah and William to Jane, and the baptism of Henry who does not appear in the Worksop baptism register.

In 1891 Janes's place of birth is given as NTH Ashby, in 1901 as NTT Ashby; Sarah's POB in 1881 is NTT Ranby and also living with the family are a nephew, William Grant and a daughter - status not given - Christiana Turner, both born Ranby.

I have searched BMD and IGI, and also 1841 Census for Henry, hoping perhaps to find him still at home, but without success although there are Beech families in the north Notts. area.

Any information most gratefully accepted. -- |bowdown|

Karen - many thanks for taking so much trouble to answer my post.

When I read your first reply. I realized that I did know of this marriage - Henry to Sarah - I have seen the Babworth registers at Retford Library. Call it a 'senior moment.' I also had the Baptisms from the registers.

I have also seen the Worksop registers and I must have had another 'senior moment' when I missed Henry's baptism. There were two other children as well, Harriet in 1834 and Thomas in 1837. Now I know his parents, and you very kindly told me the probable marriage, I can proceed, I hope.

I have the 1841 Census both on Rod's discs and through British Origins, but so far I have only looked at Babworth and Worksop - I will look again.

I am intending to go to Worksop Library Monday or Tuesday next week, (weather permitting), is there anything I can do for you ?

Again, my thanks

Hi Eileen,

it was a pleasure to be able to help and didn't take too long as there are not many Beech family members to search through. Hope you have good luck next week in Worksop.

I can't think of anything I need from Worksop library at the moment, that my mother can't get in Retford, but thanks for the offer.

Best wishes,
Karen
