Find Ancestors

You mentioned you couldn't find anything on Thomas Riddle either.


There's an obvious early front-runner for Mr. Riddle:


Births Dec 1898
Riddle Thomas Stockton 10a 78


Getting the Riddle-Bellerby marriage certificate will get your Thomas's age and father's name.

If he was born before the 1901 census, he should be findable with his father in that census. That would give an indication of his place and date of birth.

If they match with that 1898 birth, you get that certificate to confirm that it's the right father, and then you have the mother's name too. If not, you have an idea where/when to look for the birth.

And so on back!

If Dennis was the 3rd eldest, did two of his elder siblings die?

They are some of my granddad's brothers and sisters - Thank you for finding that for me :)

It's a real help.

I'll move on from here and try to trace Sarah E Bellerby this time!

Thank you :)

My grandfather Dennis was born on May 1st 1933 - A 1902 birth for Sarah Elizabeth does sound more correct to be honest as Dennis was the 3rd oldest of the 10 children so that would put Sarah Alice (who I thought it was initially) at about 41 when she had her first few children.

It must be Sarah E - I'll go down this route - Thank you very much for helping me :)

It's a load of the old shoulders

Thomas was Sarah's husband; yes, to whom she had the 10 children to - I believe there may be more children however they may have passed away at birth.

So a Sarah E Bellerby could be the one?

Thank you very much to those who have helped me with this. I'll try my best to go down this route.

When was Dennis born? You need to buy his cert. to confirm names first.

Mr Riddle's first name........Thomas

If she married a Riddle then she was Sarah E Bellerby.

Buy this to get her age and father.

Sarah, stop being confused & delete the extra threads, PLEASE!

No you aren't stuck.........

Start with yourself................

One of your parents is a descendant of Sarah......which one?

Now.......who were his/her parents?

In other words which of your grandparents was Sarah's child?

When was he/she born? And where?

Which of them was Sarah's child?

Ignore all the brothers, sisters etc......concentrate entirely on the DIRECT line............

There is a Sarah A. Bellerby born in 1892 in Stockton-on-Tees on the Tees Valley Indexes but I can't find a corresponding birth in the Complete birth index on Ancestry.

Sarah Bellerby is my great grandmother - Her son Dennis Riddle is my grandfather; my Mother's (Julie Dawn Veronica Twigg (nee Riddle) Father.

From the trees I've seen and info. on census', I seem to see that Sarah Bellerby had sisters Mary Ann and Jane who were twins along with Eliza, Charlotte and a few brothers, however; now, my grandma (Dennis' wife) says Sarah Bellerby only had sister's Bertha, Ethel and Eliza... but I can't match this up?

It's so confusing :(

Sorry

On a quick search of the boards, you have this same post in three other places.

House rule: do not post the same content more than once.

Sarah, you need to delete the three spare posts before anyone wastes time doing the same research as has been done here.

I'm looking for information on my great grandmother; Sarah Bellerby.

I now believe she was married to a Thomas Riddle however I can not seem to find him at all - No dates, no years, nowhere near my area (Stockton-on-Tees)

It appears I'm stuck!
