Find Ancestors

Hi Linda, Sorry to take a few days to get back to you. I haven't checked this posting for a while. There is a William James Dewhurst baptised at St Marys Rotherhithe on 14 Aug 1836, son of James and Mary Ann. Also other children by the same couple are: James Charles Dewhurst bapt. 28 Jan 1844 Mary Hannah Dewhurst bapt. 26 Dec 1846 There are no marriages for Dewhurst or Wimoth at St Marys but there are the following burials: Mary Hannah Dewhurst buried 7 Sept 1849 from Hanover Street - 2 years Elizabeth Dewhurst 10 June 1849 - 27 yrs Hannah Dewhurst 14 Feb 1849 - 2 yrs Henry Dewhurst 1 May 1853 - infant James Dewhurst 19 Oct 1844 - 1 yr James Dewhurst 1 Apr 1848 - 33 yrs Margaret Dewhurst 17 Mar 1839 - 18 yrs William Dewhurst 12 Feb 1852 - 6 yrs All the above are from Hanover Street!! At All Saints Rotherhithe there are no Dewhurst or Wimoth baptisms or marriages but one burial: Stephen Dewhurst 20 Dec 1857 from Hanover Street - 9 months Hope this helps. Tina

Dear Rita, That's OK! I've only just checked this board again myself. It took me a while to realise that you have to check the board for replys too... Take care, Tina

Hi Tina, Please ignore all my previous messages today, you must think I am mad. I have just found that you replied to me earlier request ages ago, I had thought that replies would be advised to me, I didnot realize I had to look through the message board. You were very kind to look up my VENTHAM ancestors for me and I greatly appreciate your assistance. Regards Rita Barfield

Hi Tina, As you can see I am not very good with computers, my last message wasnot complete. I am looking for the BAPTISM's of St Mary's Parish Church Rotherhithe for the following WILLIAM VENTHAM born c1863 ADA VENTHAM born c1867 WALTER VENTHAM born c1871 JOHN VENTHAM born c1873 Any asistance you can give will be most grateful. Regards Rita Barfrield

Hi Tina, Please forgive me if this message has been sent before. I wonder if you could look in the St Mary's Parish records Rotherhithe, Surrey for the following BAPTISMS. WILLIAM VENTHAM

Tina, Thanks anyway, as I say I've got the marriage certificate I was just hoping you might be able to supply their address. Thanks again Jean

Hi Jean, I don't mind looking for your couple and giving you what it states in the index but it doesn't give an address I'm afraid. It just gives the couples full names, date of marriage and reference number. Best wishes Tina

Hi Tina, As you have'nt had a request for a couple of days I thought you might like something to do! I have a marriage certificate for St Mary's Church but theres no address at time of marriage - would that be on the "fiche"? The couple Im looking for are John Thomas Cox & Sarah Ann Pamela Payne married Dec.1841. Thanks Jean

Thanks for trying John & Sarah Poole for me. I have a missing relative called Charles Bateman who claims to have been born in Deptford in 1868 or 66. I know Deptford is not in Rotherhithe but as he married into the Poole family and lived in Rotherhithe I am just wondering if he did come from there. I don't know how difficult it is to search your info so don't want you to get eyestrain for someone who probably isn't there! Your time is much appreciated. Selena

Hi Tina, Thanks for that - I did'nt know about the sister! I think John & Elizabeth could have been married in 1834 at Marylebone depending on her surnameThanks a lot for looking Jean

Tina thanks for trying :-))) was there any other churches in the Rotherhithe Area in 1860 that Thomas Coulby may have been baptised at???? Shelli

Tina , Thank you for your time with trying to find my WEBB family Margaret

Dear Jean, There are no GRIFFEN's for either church but I think I have found what you are looking for under GRIFFIN for St Mary's. Eliza Ann GRIFFIN baptised 12 July 1837 dau of John & Elizabeth (Ref: 4048) also a sister, Elizabeth Jane GRIFFIN bapt 13 July 1834 dau of John & Elizabeth (Ref: 4049) I'm afraid there is no marriage for the parents in either church or any burials that might match. Tina

Hi Margaret, Just checked St Mary and All Saints for your Webb family. Can find nothing that matches I'm afraid. Sorry. Tina

Hi Shelli, I've just realised I've been looking for COLBY instead of COULBY! Oops sorry about that, I'll have another look ASAP. In case you are interested the only entry for COLBY for either churches is a marriage as follows: John COLBY m Susan Margaret OVENS - 11 May 1872 (Ref: 272) I'll get back to you soon, Tina Hi again Shelli, Just had another check for COULBY's. Nothing for All Saints or St Marys. Sorry! Tina

Dear Linda, I checked both St Mary and All Saints for burials, baptisms and marriages for WILMOTH but found nothing I'm afraid. Best wishes Tina

Dear Rita, Hi! First I checked All Saints, Rotherhithe for VENTHAM. No baptisms or burials but one marriage: Mary Jane Ventham married William Robert Sorrill - 30 June 1872 (Ref: 1374) Then at St Marys there are; William John Ventham married Elizabeth Seymour - 26 Dec 1863 (Ref: 1499) Henry Ventham - buried 20 July 1851 From Clarks Orchard - 3 years old - (Ref: 6941). Clarks Orchard being the name of the street or road that he lived! No baptisms for St Marys I'm afraid. Hope this helps. Tina

Hi Tina, Could you look for a Eliza Ann Griffen ? born 21 Jan 1837 & christened in the July, Im hoping you'll be able to tell me who her mother was. Thanks Jean
