Poohmad2003 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hi Rivelin6, I'm fairly new to this. I bought a 3 month PAYG membership to findmypast.co.uk but it expires tomorrow. What do you mean by family search? Wouldn't the baptisms be listed on findmypast? Thanks again, Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again, Sarah Must admit not found the baptisms very good on findmypast http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/ I find the old site helps as much as the new in different ways.

Tuppie Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hi Rivelin6, I'm fairly new to this. I bought a 3 month PAYG membership to findmypast.co.uk but it expires tomorrow. What do you mean by family search? Wouldn't the baptisms be listed on findmypast? Thanks again, Sarah Sarah. You will only find the baptism on FindMyPast if the Family History Society for that area have submitted their transcriptions. check out their website. http://www.norfolkfhs.org.uk/ Also check out http://www.northwalshamguide.co.uk/north-walsham-parish-church_84.aspx Tuppie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poohmad2003 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Looking at the I.G.I. the most likely North Walsham marriage entry for Robert's parents (if we can exclude a entry with the spelling Anne - though of course spellings varied) would seem to be the John Pilgrim who married Ann Rust at North Walsham on 31 December 1822. This is what I had found previously and though this was about right until I then started looking for census for them. If I remember rightly, I found two different households both with John and Ann as Parent and that was about as far as I got and didn't really know where to go from there to try and find which one it might be :/ Thanks for all your help!

hillsbro Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 ...I found two different households both with John and Ann as Parent and that was about as far as I got and didn't really know where to go from there to try and find which one it might be...Yep - I found them too, without Robert. Maybe he was "adopted" - a Robert Pilgrim of about the right age turns up in the 1841 census living near North Walsham with Thomas and Mary Breese.

I found exactly with Robert living with the Breese's. Where would you suggest I go from here to try and trace Robert's birth parent?

Poohmad2003 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 This may be of use, http://freereg.rootsweb.com/cgi/Search.pl Thank you. I may sound really thick here but here goes... What do I search for as I'm not 100% sure of his birth parents? Thanks, Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
