Find Ancestors

Can anyone help me trace this person on the 1841 census, which hopefully will lead me to her parents.

She married Roger Lusby in Marsh Chapel in 1860, but I cannot find the records online. I think she was working as a servant for a James Atkinson farmer on the 1851 census in Clee (might be some relation)

It looks like I will have to get their marriage cert to get her fathers name, but before I do I thought i'd give this a shot.

Can anyone help?

Yes that's the one when she was a servant. I think she might have lied about her age to work. I don't think it's the mariners daughter, but I might be wrong. She only married a lowly person, in fact the son of a man whom was transported to Tasmania for larceny. I cannot see she would have moved in the same circles. However a servant is more likely. She was pregnant when she got married too. I am not saying it's definetely the servant girl, but she is born cleethorpes, whereas the other is great grimsby, and when she lived with rodger it says cleethorpes

didn't know her date of death, thanks, think i had her possibly isiting friends on the 1891 census, cannot remember who now

I'm thinking this James atkinson might be her uncle or fathers cousin or some relation, so i might be able to try and work it out from that, but it's a bit hard going with it being a bit too far back

Marriage cert might be the way to go then then you will know who she names as her father if any.

A lot of our ancestors were pregnant when they got married it seems which does'nt really matter from which background they came from. A mariner is only a seaman unless he was a master mariner

jax

the marriage cert my not be any help, as we don't know deceased mariners name either.

I have got some other problems to sort out if anyone is interested I'll put them on. They are my friends tree

Only one for Clee:
ELIZA DUWAY ATKINSON
Christening: 16 MAY 1830 Clee, Lincoln, England
Father: RICHARD ATKINSON Mother: MARY C027525

Hi

It's Cleethorpes.

Clee is different from Cleethopes, Old Clee as it is known now is part of Grimsby

If says her father is a dec'd Mariner it may help...but she is living in a area where there would be a high number of men in that line of work

jax

It probably would be her if it was dec'd mariner, other one looks more like they come from working on the land, if this James atkison is an uncle, but it's all guess work.

she is the only one on my family I cannot get back to the parents on out of both sides, so i think i will just have to get the cert sometime

Working on a ship/fishing boat was no different from working on the land.

You say she may have lied about her age to work?? they were working by at least the age of 12 then anyway

jax

Right.

I just don't know which one she is. The captains daughter sounds good to me, i'd like to have a sea captain in the family. He could just be the captain of a small fishing boat for all i know!

It's one i will have to get the marriage cert for in the future. She could have got pregnant and ran off, as married Marsh Chapel lincoln, and not in Grimsby, so they could have eloped as Mum probably wouldn't approve

sometimes they lied about their age if the husband was younger too, other times they just didn't know how old they were, as they would read 7 write half the time

Very true...there were lots of reasons why they lied.

The Mariners daughter may not be her but until you get the cert you will not know.

She was 25 when she married so no permission was needed, have you got any birth certs for any of her children saying her maiden name was Atkinson? because 25-28 is quite old for a first marriage
