As Lucy was clearly NOT born in Leicestershire, you can discount the people you came up with for her family

I realise the age is 'out'.............so this is a suggestion only, but it is at least the right location

I think you'll be stuck until you buy the marriage cert

Have you checked 1881 census to try to find further info about these people?

Buying the cert is the sure way to get accurate paternal info, and also to confirm who married whom

How do you relate to this 'couple'?

Joanne Report 24 Apr 2012 09:58

Hi sorry to ask but I'm hoping if any one can help me, to make sure I'm on the right track but I am trying to find the wife of David Dewar Hislop and i think its Lucy Mitchell married in 1875 in Stamford Lincolnshire. But this is where I hit the other problem, not sure if i have found the right parents to
Lucy . 1851 Census Lacey Mitchell (Lucy Mitchell) father William Mitchell born about 1806, mother Hannah Mitchell born about 1811 and three children James abt 1842, Joseph abt 1846, and Mary abt 1846,
I also found marriage for William Mitchell to a Hannah Kirby 1826 parish Newbold on Avon. All these people were from Leicestershire. This is where i think Lucy was born, I do hope some one can help me please

Many Thanks
Jo :-)
