Recommendations
·
Martha
Power, daughter of Hannah, granddaughter of Godfrey. The marriage record for Martha Power found in
the BMD Index needs to be located. I
will start by searching in the FHL catalogue, place search for Liverpool,
Lancashire, England. Another option is
to order the marriage certificate from the General Register Office.[19]
·
Martha
Power. I found an index to a
marriage of a Martha Power in 1865 in Liverpool, Lancashire at Findmypast.com.[20] Another marriage on the index for Martha
Power in Barton upon Irwell, Lancashire for 1866.[21] Martha’s parents were married in 1846 and her
christening date is Feb 20 1848 so a marriage in the years of 1865 or 1866
could be feasible especially since Lancashire County is just north and West of
Derbyshire county where Martha grew up.
·
Eliza
Power, daughter of Hannah, granddaughter of Godfrey. The marriage record for Eliza Power to
John James Barker found in the BMD needs to be located to verify this is the
correct family and to determine any possible relationship between her uncle
John James Barker and her husband John James Barker.[22] Before ordering the marriage record I will
try and locate one in the church registers. FHL British Fiche #6905205 which
includes extracted information from the Parish registers and bishops transcripts
for Heage and Duffield marriages during the years 1847-1897 should be
consulted. Eliza Power. I found an index
to a marriage of Eliza Powers to a John James Barker sometime during July-Sep
1876.[23] This record looks like a good fit but will
still need to be verified. It is
interesting to note her husband’s name is the same as her uncle.
·
Martha
Power, daughter of Hannah. I found a
death record in the Freebmd index for a Martha Power, dying at age 17 in 1865.[24] She was christened in 1848 so this could be
the right record but it needs to be requested to verify. Also, finding the family in the census
records could help shed some light on the subject as well.
·
Eliza
Power, daughter of Hannah. Eliza
married John James Barker. She was
living in South Normanton, Nottinghamshire with her husband and her four
youngest children. I found two possible death records for Eliza in
Nottinghamshire. An Elizabeth Barker
died in 1919 and an Eliza A Barker died
in 1930.[25] Both these records require further research
to see if one of the them is the Eliza Power Barker in this family.
