Cliff Ton 10,479 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Welcome to Nottstalgia The closest match which might be your location is Crosland Place which was in the Narrow Marsh area, but was demolished many years ago. If you have any more clues or information, we might come up with a better result. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TBI 2,351 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 There was a Crosland St and Crosland Court in Narrow Marsh, mid 19th century. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bubblewrap 3,815 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I think both streets "disappeared" when Cliff Road was built in the early 1930s 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bing 78 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 If you give the names you are researching, somebody might be able to help. There's a Nottingham Ancestry Forum on here. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
broxtowelad 175 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Have you had a look for your family names on the 1871 census ? http://www.freecen.org.uk/ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mardybum 1 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 the main name on my tree is Lowe ,I've got back to John Lowe who when he married in 1875 was living in Crosland St his wife was to but no numbers, on the marriage cert his Dad was Charles Lowe, in the 1881 census his wife Elizabeth Marston was at her Dads in Stanton on the Wolds stating she was married but John wasn't there ,on his sons wedding cert 1897 John was deceased ,I've had a look on ancestry at Crosland St 71/81 census but no Lowes only a Lowes yard , just cant get a positive connection of John & his whereabouts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,479 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 A view of things in the early 20th c. The road shown here as Leen Side is the present day Canal Street. And Red Lion Street is the present day Cliff Road. Crosland Place and Lowe's place are also shown. And this is Crosland Place in 1919, looking towards Red Lion Street. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,690 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Some birth dates would have helped . Can't see a Lowe / Marston marriage but there is a Lowe /Mason marriage in Nottingham .Her first name was Ellen at time of marriage to John Herbert Lowe There is an Elizabeth Lowe born Hickling 1858 at her parents in Stanton On Wolds in 1881 . Are Ellen and Elizabeth the same person ? Earlier in 1871 I can see a John Lowe b 1856 with his parents Charles b 1833 and Charlotte b 1835 at Rawcliffe St . St Peters .Looks like parents born Mansfield . Also in 1894 living at 136 London Road is a John Herbert Lowe described as a traveller . Could of course be some other John Herbert Lowe . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,690 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 There seem to be two John Herbert Lowes around at the same time There is a news report of an infant death to an Ellen Birkin and John Herbert Lowe in Sept 1877 at Queens Walk . In 1919 there is a family announcement of the death of a John Herbert Lowe of Talbot St ., son of Henry Lowe . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
annswabey 599 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 There's an 1875 marriage in Nottm of a John Lowe to possibly an Elizabeth Marson in Dec q 1875. Is this the right marriage? Do you have age of John and Eliz at the time of their marriage? Have you found both of them pre 1871? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mardybum 1 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 thanks for all the reply's , I have the marridge cert of John 25yrs & Elizabeth marson 21yrs 1875 living at Crosland st when married & Johns Dad Charles was deceased .in my tree I have them living 81 census Marsons (looks like they droped the T) Stanton in the Wolds (seems John was possibly at work not at this address) 71 census its Marstons living in Kinoulton 61 census Marstons living in Hinkling (the names all fit could be wrong) . got there sons Birth cert Charles Thomas Lowe born 1877 Notts ,also Daughter Emily 1880 , I have Charles marridge cert with John as deceased ,died between 1880/1897 ,cant find them on the 91 census , cant find John on the 71 census , think ill send for Emilys birth cert see where they were living in 1880 might help , Quote Link to post Share on other sites
annswabey 599 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 What was the occupation of John and Eliz fathers on the marriage cert? What was John's occupation on the marriage cert? Who were the witnesses? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,690 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 John Lowe born 1850 seems hard to find on any Census . There is a news report in the NEP Sept 1877 of a "navvy" called John Lowe at Stanton On The Wolds being admitted to General Hospital with "severe compound of the leg" after being crushed between 2 wagons whilst in the street . If he was a navvy may explain why he wasn't with Elizabeth in 1881 (assuming he survived his accident !) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mardybum 1 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 just says John was a labourer and nothing for Elizabeth ,on Johns sons birth cert it states John was a Railway labourer registered 25/5/1877 Stanton in Wolds tunnnel?? would that tie in with navvy & Stanton & John Lowe looks very promising , great import thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DAVIDW 1,690 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Nope thats it , the only thing I missed out was the word "fracture" as in "severe compound fracture of the leg" . It was actually in the Nottinghamshire Guardian Sept 14th 1877. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
