Thank you to everyone who has tried to help me, as Meg said I have the marriages of my Abraham Nowell, just very puzzled as to the baptism. Just thought that maybe with the couple of coincidences, daughters marriage and childrens names, it could warrant closer investigation,and wondered what everyone thought. |

What I sometimes do with the Lancs OPC site, Meg, is to go into Edit on my Firefox headings and scroll down to the "Find" option, then type in part or all of a name in the search box and click "find". As soon as the whole page is loaded, all you have to do is click "Next" on the search box and every time that name comes up, it will find it. (Pretty much like the Find tool in Word, really) |

I did bother to look, Mgnv, and found nothing that informed me, which is why I asked your advice. |

Well, Malcolm, how the heck do you know that none of the witnesses appear in any marriages that month? This is another bit of knowledge that you have that could be so helpful. How do you know? |

Abrahams first marriage was in Sedbergh in 1794 to a Mary Preston,while he was a recruiting sergeant based at Settle, his second marriage was to a Mary Atkinson in 1801, again Sedbergh, I have records to trace Abraham and Mary in Sedbergh until his death. Thanks again for your help. |

Thanks Margaret, there is another Abraham Nowell born Colne though around 1788, ( a submitted record like the one (mine??) born 1760) but couldnt this be the one married 1812 and 1813, married twice for some reason. Maybe I am clutching at straws |

There are these 2 marriages on BVRI but within 2 years making it look as if there were 2 Abrahams: |

I have been looking for years for an ancestor of mine born around 1763, died in 1829 aged 66 from burial record. He married and died in Sedbergh and I have searched many places through record offices around the yorkshire area but cannot find a baptism. |
