Jess sorry i forgot to add that and Tracy thanks for being so quick to give the answer Steve xxx

man missing on this one Name: SINGLETON, Margaret Record Type: Marriages Quarter: September Year: 1883 District: Preston County: Lancashire Volume: 8e Page: 893 bear with me- NO not that i can match

Only 2 Thomas Baileys in Preston - one in 1879, no Margaret other is 1891, so too late

Thankyou both for taking up your time to look for me Steve xxx.

Ohh... they're in 1881 together! Thomas Bailey abt 1860 West Indies Head 62 Whittingham Street, Preston, Lancashire, England Margaret Bailey abt 1857 Preston, Lancashire, England Wife 62 Whittingham Street, Preston, Lancashire, England Wm H Singleton abt 1878 Preston, Lancashire, England Son 62 Whittingham Street, Preston, Lancashire, England

Could the A be a J?? Marriages Jun 1879 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- BAILEY Thomas Preston 8e 757 Cross Mary Preston 8e 757 GILL Kennedy Preston 8e 757 Whalley Margaret Jane Preston 8e 757

So that means they married just after william was born

Could one of you very kind people look for me please the marriage of william andrew singleton and margaret some time around 1877

Have you looked on FreeBMD and/or LancashireBMD?

Sorry no i will go look now thanks, not with today with a slight hang-over

I can't find William Andrew in the register.

Thats not good, wonder if it is miss-transcribed.

I mean there's nothing for a William Andrew - no birth, no marriage, no death.

THOUGHT WE were looking for a marriage of margaret SINGLETON to Bailey?

That as well Jess. Margaret A was the mother of William H Singleton. On the IGI, it states his parents to be William Andrew Singleton and Margaret Alice. This is extracted, not submitted. She then appears on the censuses with Thomas Bailey and son William. Can't find a trace of William Andrew, and no marriage to Thomas lol

This was on igi though -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Henry <Singleton> Male -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Event(s): Birth: Christening: 13 JUN 1877 Saint Mark, Preston, Lancashire, England Death: Burial: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parents: Father: William Andrew Singleton Family Mother: Margaret Alice

I mean - i saw that Whalley marriage...!(and thought Steve knew her former/maiden name )
