Hi Jessica Wondered whether you are still able to help as this is an oldish thead. My most elusive ancester is Daniel Dickinson. He was born abt 1822 in Rawmarsh. He's been located in the 1851 census (widowed, wife was Mary?) but no sign of him after then. So I'm assuming he died in Rawmarsh. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We've hit a brick wall!

It is a big of a longshot. There are loads of cemeteries in the Doncaster area so i can't do anything about that i'm afarid unless i spot the name mentioned during searches for others. Lynn I have had no luck of eric. Have you thought about contacting the local newspaper in Rotherham and give deatils for who you are looking for? I know it has been a success before. Yours Jessica

Hi, Thanks for your offer. I am interested in any baby Pritchard's that may have been buried in either Rawmarsh/Parkgate. They lived in the area between 1886 and 1891. Parents would have been Henry and Sarah Ann Pritchard. Thanks Tracy
