Hi Christine

Don't know if you remember me. You replied back in may 2006 to a posting I'd put on for Job Kirk of Greasley. At that time you were waiting for marriage cert for Thomas Kirk & Fanny Wall, & I was trying to tie up Job Kirk & Fanny Goulder to my Kirk family Job Kirk & Sarah Phillips.

Well, through various sources on Ancestry & Genes Reunited, I've tied the 2 families. Unfortunately I've still not come across any of your Kirk names, but maybe these names may help you.

THomas Kirk 1744, Strelley mar Ann Rigley 1748, Strelley. Their son Thomas K 1767, Strelley mar Hannah Morris 1768, Strelley. They have 2 sons that I know of (could well be others) Job 1794, Strelley & Thomas c 1800.

Job mar Fanny Goulder & their offspring were: Thomas 1819, Elizabeth 1820, Mary 1822, John 1824, Phoebe 1826, Christian 1828, Job 1830, Elizabeth 1833, Fanny 1835, William 1838 & James 1842.

My Kirks were descended from TK 1867 & Hannah Morris' other son TK 1800. This Thomas mar Mary Orrill. They had Hannah 1827, Job 1830 (this is my gr gr grandfather who mar Sarah Phillips & who I was trying to tie to Job K & Fanny Goulder), Edwin 1832, Elizabeth 1837, Oliver 1840.

Don't know if this Oliver is anything to do with your Oliver but this one mar Ann ? from Bagthorpe & had Walter 1867, Albert 1872, Lucy 1874, Oliver 1877 & James 1880. Oliver's 2nd marriage was to Emma ? b c1855 in Fulbeck, Lincs.

Hope some of this helps you & hasn't confused you too much. Regards, Pat Appleby
