Yet another spelling of mmn:

BLACKEY, JOHN DIMELOW Order
GRO Reference: 1844 J Quarter in WEST DERBY Volume 20 Page 1002

This one sadly died in 1844.

The children's baptsims are on familysearch - unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any sign of the marriage of William and Frances, and the children's births weren't registered.

Just to add to the confusion on Find a grave Frances is buried in Pauatahanui burial ground, Wellington, NZ as is William, which is correct. It lists her name as being Frances Dimelow Blackey!!
However, the “parents” I thought were hers are from Manchester, not Wales, ( John Dimelow and Frances Mills) and their daughter Frances was born 1822, and my ancestor had children from 1830 onwards, so too young to be her.
I hope that hasn’t made the issue more confused!!!!

Hi everyone, can anyone help me please?
I thought I had the details correct for the marriage of William Alfred Blackey ( born 1808) to Frances Dimelow (born 1811).
However I don’t. They were married around 1829. On the 1841 census it says she came from Wales.
So it’s definitely Frances but I don’t know her surname, and I’ve hunted without any results to find a record of their marriage. Likely it will be Liverpool/ Lancashire where William lived but I’m not certain. I don’t think it’s Dimelow as that family are from Manchester, and their daughter Frances is too young to be Williams wife in view of the ages of their children
Please can anyone find their marriage record?
Thanks
Glyn
