Welcome to The Briercliffe Society Forum

Hi.

Wondering if anyone can help me with locating my gr gr grandmother's birth/baptism....it is proving to be difficult to find...getting the information I have so far has taken a while!

Her name is either Hannah or Ann Procter/Proctor born about 1825 to 1828 in Worsthorne. Mother was Mary [nee Heap born 1805 Extwistle] and father Robert Procter who were married at St Peter's Burnley in 1822.

Although Mary and Robert were married at the C of E St Peter's previously Mary Heap's birth had been registered at Haggate Baptist Chapel.

Nothing has shown up in the St Peter's transcripts at the record office for Hannah/Ann Procter [a lovely Lancashire lass looked for me as I am in Australia].

Regards,
Mia

Many thanks, Gloria.

I think I've been down these paths before, but, I will double check through all my heaps of paper, etc!!!
This person and her family are a bit more elusive than I would like.

They probably used the most 'convenient' place for registering births, marriages, etc...

Hannah/Ann Procter's mother was Mary Heap.
Mary Heap married Robert Procter at St Peter's C of E in Burnley 1822.
Mary Heap's birth, however, was in Hing Heys Extwistle and registered at Haggate Baptist Chapel.
So maybe I am looking for a non-conformist entry for Hannah/Ann Procter in the Worsthorne area.

It has taken me quite a while to get this far for just one particular line - I'm not giving up yet, though!

Regards,
Mia

Crikey, just realised I have sent you this 1841 recently and I had already put it on here.

Probably another dead end Mia, but just thought the Hey could be Ing Hey, at least the Thomas is there, and we have nothing else to go on as yet.

Mia, have you seen Mel's descendants of Thomas Heap. Is that your Thomas, Mary's father?
