Seeking marriage of Francis Stockdale to Sarah c1845-1848 in Yorkshire or County Durham [closed]

Question

Hi All,

I'm looking for the marriage date, location and, most importantly, the bride's maiden name.  I've checked FamilySearch and FreeBMD without success.  Is there a marriage sourced elsewhere?

Thanks in anticipation,

Chris.

Answer 1

Using the information from the 1861 census that Ailsa found, according to the GRO index (https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/indexes_search.asp) it looks like her maiden name was Woodruff(e), as the births of her children seem to be:

STOCKDALE, FRANCIS     WOODRUFF
GRO Reference: 1848  S Quarter in STOCKTON AND SEDGEFIELD  Volume 24  Page 291

STORKDALE, MARGARET     WOODRUFF
GRO Reference: 1850  M Quarter in STOCKTON AND LEDGEFIELD  Volume 24  Page 277

STOCKDALE, CHRISTIANA     WOODRUFFE
GRO Reference: 1852  M Quarter in STOCKTON  Volume 10A  Page 22

I haven't yet found the marriage though.

Comments

Cool.  I've created profiles for Christiana's brother and sister, so that's some benefit already.

I've now been able to move this bit of the family back another generation thanks to the above.

I've found a Francis and Sarah Stockdale living in Yarm in the 1861 Census?

Any help?

Comments

Yes, thanks, that is they; Christiana was my great, great grandmother.  I'm trying to find the marriage date for her parents and her mother's maiden name.
