Hi I need help finding a marriage in England
suegraham
Henry GRIGGS was born in Ickleton Cambridgeshire England in 1824 he was baptized on the 18th of July 1824 Henry was the 12th child of James GRIGGS and Sarah WARD.
Henry married Rosetta ? BARTLETT
I cannot find the record for their marriage not sure if Rosetta's last name is BARTLETT.
Henry and Rosetta? are on the 1851 England census:
Henry head age 27 born Cambridgeshire
Rosetta wife age 26 born London
Henry and Rosetta do not turn up on the 1881 census I have found Henry GRIGGS and Rosetta BARTLETT on the ship Alipore into Port Phillip January 1853 with child Mary 1 year old.
If this is the same family then Rosetta's last name is BARTLETT.
I would appreciate any help.
Susan

asheppard on 2011-06-06 04:07:56The marriage is listed on www.freebmd.org.uk
Marriages Sep 1850 (>99%)
Bartlett Rosetta Shoreditch 2 424
Griggs Henry Shoreditch 2 424
you can purchase a copy through GRO or try Joy Murrin at www.joymurrin.com.au if you want a transcript, it's a bit cheaper.
Does it say where Mary was born on the ship passenger list. If it is England you could search the freebmd site and track down her birth details and order the certificate.

Unfortunatly so far I have not found any further information on the passenger list but I hav'nt checked all sources yet.
