Tina, The areas round Stoke on Trent they have all the parish records for, the ones from further afield - like Tipton - they generally have in book form and they only go up to about 1812. They don't have any later ones. Sam x |

Sam You mention that Stoke on Trent Archives have records for almost all Staffordshire parishes. Do you know if they hold records for Tipton? I have looked on their website but they don't seem to have a list of what they hold on there. Thanks Tina |

Thelma, Rosanna was buried in the churchyard at St James, Longton, I didn't get a copy of the entry this time (becasue I didn't actually make a note that you wanted one!) but I go most weeks so will only take me 2 mins to get you one next time I go, let me know if you still want one. Roseanna Jervis, address: Gate Street, Longton, buried 2 May 1855, age 47. Sam x |

Maker - father Johnathan Gilbert - ??? Maker Louisa Johnson - 18 - Spinster - Eagle Streer - father William Johnson - Potters Presser Witnesses: George Johnson & Elthel Maud Gilbert That's a coincidence, I live in Eagle Street, Hanley!! Occupation of the groom and his father is unreadable, a maker of something! Both had the same occupation if that helps. Sam x |

Hi Thelma, If they died that long ago there is a possibility that they are buried in the churchyard so I will check that for you. Sam x |

Hi Tracy and Angela, it will be no problem to check your marriages, I will let you know what I find. Kelly, unfortunately the Archives don't have the records for Hanbury - its a shame 'cos I have rellies from there as well that I need to check! As far as I have seen it must be the only parish in Staffs that they dont have. If I ever make it to Staffs Record Office or Burton-on-Trent Archives (who do have them) I will let you know. Fi & Lilly, unfortunately I have only booked the fiche reader tomorrow and the burial records are on CD. I do need to check some burials for my family so hopefully will be booking a PC in the next couple of weeks. Sam x |

Hi Sam, I am wondering if you could help me find where my great grandmother was buried. I am sorry I dont know the church. Elsie Smith died aged 77 on 21/7/1967 in Stoke on Trent. She was widow of the previously deceased Arthur Howe. I have her death cert. Many thanks for the offer. Fi |
