Oh thanks girls, I shall have a look and see.

New message from Catherine this morning about the witnesses on the marriage cert.

Hi Mel,

The witnesses on the marriage cert are Emily Watson and Edward Allison.

From Catherine

A bit more may be of help

Thomas Arrowsmith = Elizabeth Hardisty Sep Q 1839 Easingwold 24 263

Easingwold covers Alne

It looks like Harrowsmith to me. I think the young child Ann is actually 7 weeks old rather than 7 months.

Catherine, Could this be your family 1841 -- It is Harrows----- with a smudgey line and mark-- to me it looks like Harrowsmith - but perhaps some one else would like to have a look and give an opinion

Thomas Harrower 25y yes
Elizabeth Harrower 25y yes
James Harrower 1y yes
Ann Harrower 7mths [?] yes

this is in Alne, could the surname have turned to Arrowsmith ??

No penalty until 1875 for not registering births - so you will probably have to try to find a baptism for him in the Parish registers

All the census I have put up says he was born in Yorks.

I can't seem to find a birth for him!!

Just going out!

1861 shows his birth to have been in Yorkshire

pm this morning from Catherine.

Hello Mel,

Thank you for your time with this and yes this is the family, ive been a member of Gene's for around 3 years now and have other family members also on here, we have come to a dead end with James as we cannot find his birth cert, we can only find his marraige cert and from that his father's name so unable to go any further and finding it most frustrating !!

Kind Regards

Thank you yes this is the correct family.

We cannot find an entry for the birth cert for James, we only have his father from the marriage cert of James and Hannah, we believe Thomas was born around 1814.

There is a Thomas and Ann who emigrated to America in 1861, they are registerd in Ohio and Thomas was registered as an Agricultural farmer from Aldwark, but without James's mothers details we are unable to make the connection to them.

Kind Regards
Catherine

In later censuses I can see James Arrowsmith married to Hannah M born in Yorkshire (Aldwark) living in Darlington. Is this a different James?
(If it is the correct James there are various in-laws to give you lots of information)
Thank-you

Have you found the family in 1841, as there are Arrowsmiths at Sedgefield father Thomas but no James? Also, what was Thomas's date of birth?
Thank-you
