*Archived *-Dorah Timmins Westwood

Post by Northern Lass »

I have done a marriage look up for Mally and wonder how on earth Dorah became Laura on every single census when the marriage is entered as Dorah


then I wondered about the black Country accent and if you say Laura it sounds like Dorah
so she is going down as Laura and the vicar needs lessons on how his flock spake!
:roll:

so here is her bapt

LAURA WESTWOOD
Christening: 27 JAN 1828 Saint Thomas, Dudley, Worcester,
Parents:
Father: BENJN. WESTWOOD
Mother: ELIZH.

Messages:
Extracted birth

just about to add the marriage..

in the meantime anyone find a marriage for parents?

and I think she may be a Timmins
cos mayber her Grand-mother b abt 1777 is with Laura and William Stone on the census

an Ann Timmins
