Reggie & Prickly Holly.

We are delighted & overwhelmed by the helpfulness of you very good folk & envious of your ability to search the data bases even more thoroughly.

John is down town just now, but this is his family, Alloway, & he will be blown away by all this help. Miraculous. Bless you all. Gwenda.

INQUEST for JOHN ALLAWAY
14 Sept 1863 , Ballarat Newspaper "STAR"

"STAR" published 14 Sept 1863

INQUEST

On Saturday, at the City of York Hotel, Ballarat, Dr. Glendinning held an inquest on the body of John Allaway, whose death, according to the evidence and the verdict of the jury, took place on Thursday instant, in his own house, Mopoke Gully, Ballarat, and arose from natural causes, being caused by extensive inflammation and mortification of the small intestines, arising from a strangulated inguinal hernia of the left side. The deceased was a native of Gloucestershire, a married man, with a wife and family, and fifty three years of age. His parents names were Jacob and Elizabeth Allaway. He was ruptured when fifteen years of age, but never wore a regular truss except of his own making. His health was good until last Christmas, when owing to a portion of some building having fallen upon him, the rupture increased, and his health declined rapidly thereafter.

GlitterBaby, Thank you. I appreciate your reply & will certainly follow through.

Or called family search

Oh, you wonderful people, Reggie & Brummiejan. You have found exactly what we needed. The marriage in particular plus the fulsome Census data 1841.
Yes, I had forgotten to mention that John & Elizabeth were the same age, born C1811.

You mention did I check the IGI? Please explain?

Thank you for mentioning Victor in respect of more information at Gloucestor.

Again, a 1001 thanks. Gwenda & John. NZ.

The solution, Gwenda, is to purchase the marriage cert. If they knew their fathers, the details will be recorded

I'm assuming that you've checked the IGI............

EDIT

You could also try asking Victor if he would do a lookup of the marriage info at Glos Records office.

He very kindly offers this service.......but you have to send a PM. He does not respond to requests posted to his thread

Can anyone offer help with my search for John Alloway & Sarah Glenister. Married or de facto. Appear in the 1841 Census as living in Cheltenham. One of their sons, George, born 1848, emigrated to New Zealand approximately 1865. At least as far as we can ascertain. George is my partner's great grandfather. ANy help appreciated.
