The Blanch birth is above Rae. Spelling difference insignificant, obviously the same Blanche. No MMN shows till 1912.

Furton is just a mis-transcription. Have sent correction.

Hi again Jan

Sorry of I am sounding a little thick but is Furton an alternative spelling as far as records are concerned? Its the first time I have seen this but if this is them then THANKS SO MUCH, that is fascinating.

Kindest regards

I have found a birth record for a blanch turton 1892 (jan-Mar) but strangely enough, unless my eyesight is failing (more) it is spelt BLANCH. no E.

However it does not show mothers maiden name.

Thanks Jan

I really am at a dead end. Unfortunately I have a huge tree on the Ancestry site and then one here and im loosing track.

Turton seems to be proving more difficult that I had thought to research.

I cant believe that I had not thought about looking for Elizabeth instead of ELiza.

Thanks again.
Rae :)

Can't see an obvious marriage. "Eliza" is a real pain, can be Elizabeth too of course. You might need the birth cert for this one!

Thanks Jan.

This info I do already have (see above- I think form about a year ago!!!) cant believe how time goes so quickly.

I need to find Eliza W maiden name and place of birth next I think.

I am extremely grateful for the time you have taken to help me. Sincerely appreciated. It is very kind of you.

Hi again all.

I am stuck! (again) I am still trying to locate anyone with any onfo regarding the surname TURTON as it appears not as common as I thought.

In particular I have a John Turton (c 1866) who I need to find his wife (poss. Eliza ??????) They had children- Issabella, John, Albert and Blanche.

The main problem I have is that although as far as this particular Turton is concerned all roads lead to Nottingham, I have a suspician that I may be missing something somewhere as Yorkshire has been mentioned in the past. ANY help re this or any other Nottingham Turton, info would be so very very welcomed.

Many thanks indeed
Kindest regards
Rae :)

I am trying to find any info regarding the family Turton. Possibly a John F, married to Booth father of Dennis Turton who married a lady called Eatherington.

Any help/advice would be very gratefully received. Thank you all.
