Find Ancestors

Hi all
This is a long shot, but if you don't ask. I have been told that the Wills for Northamptonshire are now on FMP. If anyone could look for a Will for a Samuel Streeton for me between 1841 & 1851 I would be very grateful. There are two deaths on FreeBMD, one in 1844 & one in 1851. He was a shoemaker from Earls Burton, so may have left one. Thanks very much

Carol, might be an idea to amend your heading to read "wills lookup on FMP please" or similar, as you need to attract the FMP gang.
Have you already tried the National Archives?

Have had a look, but no record found.


Think its Earls Barton, not Earls Burton.

Thanks Brummiejan. I was a bit worried about using FMP in the heading as I thought they were funny about look ups. Not I haven't tried NA, thanks for the reminder.

Carol

Thanks for looking choccy. Much appreciated

Hi

Thanks everyone for your replies. The burial in 1851 is the right one.

Know it's not what you were asking for but also found this marriage (I think Cordwainer is another term for a Shoemaker).....hope it's of use

And if the above age at death is correct perhaps Samuel's baptism

Thanks I do have earlier information. I am having trouble finding one of his daughers baptism (my ancestor) Father Samuel, Shoemaker on marriage certificate, so fairly sure I have the right one. I was hoping he may have left a Will naming my Ancestor.

Thanks for all your help
Carol

What is the name of your Ancestor that you are trying to find?

Silly question but what does FMP stand for - is this a site I'm missing out on please? Helen

FMP is short for Find My Past.....it's a subscription/pay to view website similar to Ancestry

My ancestor was Sarah Streeton born c 1818 at Earls Barton. There is a Sally baptised in 1818, which I think must be her. My niggle is that there is a Sarah buried at EB in 1837 aged 20 who I can't account for.

I can see the Burial for Sarah in 1837 aged 20 but like you can't find a baptism.....the only one I can find is for Sally as follows

Just a thought.....could the Sarah who died in 1837 could be the wife of William Streeton?
