George & Elizabeth Mason née Pask

This information relates to a currently unidentified main branch of the family with roots in London.

This morning, I received an inquiry from Larry Young. He writes:

There is but one Pask in my family tree, the name having come from two Birth Certificates. I am, however at a brick wall of sorts as I am unable to find a marriage certificate, and the surname Pask seems to be frequently misspelt as Park.

What I know about "my" Elizabeth Pask can be found at http://members.optusnet.com.au/~lhtyoung/p368.htm

Elizabeth was born c1824-27 in Middlesex, and married George Mason c1843. They had four children - James, Elizabeth, George, and Lucy. She was a widow in the 1861 census. Also listed was a nephew James Nye aged 18 also born in Middlesex.

I have searched our database, and unfortunately cannot find the marriage, or 1841 census. I also searched for Park, and other main variants. However like Larry, drew a blank.

Can anyone help with Larry's brickwall?

Clement Richard & Dorothy Pask née Bullock

This information relates to the green-icon tree - descendants of John & Mirabel Pask née Sparrow.

We have received an e-mail from Dena Bullock. She wrote:

On the 28th October 1899 my Great Aunt, Dorothy Bullock married Clement Richard Paske at Fornham All Saints. Suffolk. This is all I know about her married life. Do you know anymore? Were there any photographs of the wedding, or any
other occasions? Did they have any children?
We have advised Dena that a transcript of their marriage can be downloaded from the Sources of Information from the narratives of Clement Richard & Dorothy Pask née Bullock. Hopefully another interested researcher can provide information on their children. There are several possibilities in the GRO Birth Indexes, however it is difficult to establish the family links
