Robinson Family going forwards from 1871 ormskirk

You shouldn't be looking for a marriage until you know more about the other children of Richard and Nancy.

Use Lanc OPC to see what baptisms you can find. Then you will have a better idea of what timeframe they may have married.

hi merry , yes i know but if james was born in 1825 ,any other children before will not be on lancs bmd as the transcripts only begin in 1837!, but i will check for more births .

[Merry]

I said Lancs OPC not Lancs BMD and if that wasn't clear enough, I also said baptisms not births.

Can't you just enter the names of the parents and maybe 20 years either way from 1825 and do it in one search? Should take about 20 seconds.

From this search page:

Click this>> You may click here to begin searching the whole county.

Surname Robinson
Father Richard
Mother Nancy
Baptisms
Whole County
Year 1825
Range + or - 20 years

Then just choose the entries you think are the same family.

I get 8 matches, 6 of which are more likely to be yours because of the father's occupation.

hi merry it's taking me ages to go through the baptisms as my ipad is just too old each time i check a name i have to go back to the church page and then get back to baptisms . I don't think there a quicker way ?

[Merry]

What I said in my post just before yours!
