My grateful thanks to everyone who replied to my queries - I have now
printed and completed the relevant forms and these will be posted tomorrow -
and hope that I don't have to wait too long for my information. It never
ceases to amaze me how quickly all my questions are answered.
Regarding Find my Past Cheshire query , the information that I don't seem
able to find at the moment are - The Baptism of Alice Sigley, I think it is
possible that her father was William but am unsure of this and I have no
idea of her mother and so I can't find a marriage for her parents. Alice
was born c1771 and married John Riding and both died in the same year 1839.
I have looked at the Staffordshire Lists as I know that the name of Sigley
crops up in Leek and the surrounding areas, but no luck there either.
I have also been trying to knock down another of my brick walls in
Cheshire - I have the baptism of Joseph Pearson in 1782 his father is John
and mother Ann, however I haven't been able to find a marriage for them, so
again any help would be most welcome.
Once again my thanks to all - Best Wishes Lilian
