Find Ancestors

thats good! well good luck & hope it all works out for you... by the way if he has an odd name it might be spelt different to the 'normal-conventional' ways of spelling it.. for example John/Jon/Jhan. . . just a thought

No such luck!!

Michael Barry Hudson, aged 19 in 1966 and was in the Maidstone/Strood area at that time. Had an Auntie round that area,name not known.And she remembers she thinks his dad in Rochester again cannot remember his name .

Hi Gemma

Is the address a block of flats on the 2003 elec roll it is coming up as John Kennedy House and a William and David Murphy lived there then. .....there was a Fredrick Long at number 58, could that have been his Father?

Hi Sheila,

58 is the right number! The address is a block of flats (46-88 i believe)

dont know william or david Murphy?

that does sound like it could be his father! thanks for that..

EDIT: I am not sure if its 56 or 58 now, will double check with my aunt

Hi,

Wishing you good luck with your search.

Alison

So perhaps we should now try to find a marriage for Frederick Long to Catherine Cairns - (Cairns a middle name (no idea on her surname)). If we can find that marriage we will then have solved the mystery of the mother's maiden name.

Gemma - you need to ask Jean to see if she can find you Frederick Long on the 2008 Electoral Roll.

Nicki

Just found this on 192.com - not got the credits to get the full details though -

Electoral Roll 2002 - 2007

FREDERICK W LONG XX ROTHERHITHE OLD ROAD XXXXXX XXXXXXX
other occupants SYLVIA GAYLE

MERVYN LONG XXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXX XX ROTHERHITHE OLD ROAD XXXXXX XXXXXXX
Age guide: XX-XX (?), other occupants JULIE CRELLIN

Can someone look these up and pm info to Gemma?

Nicki

Gemma

Also, perhaps you could contact:

Local Studies Department
Rotherhithe Library
Albion Street
SE16 7HY
Tel: 020 7525 2000
Fax: 020 7394 0672

They will look at historical electoral rolls for you and you can perhaps get historical data on the address of where your father lived. At least that way you would know how long he lived there for and get full detail on his parents names.

Nicki

There is a possiblity the mothers maiden name could have been "KEY"

thanks for all your messages

I have now asked Jean if she can look that up for me

my aunt has called the Rotherhithe Library so thanks for that info

I haven't the money for 192 either so i am trawling the deaths on ancestry, no luck so far.........

Best of luck Gemma

Tina

i have 192... i'll take a look now!

I have pm'd you the details.

Tracey

Houston we have a problem ......

Catherine Cairns Long date of birth on the death registration is given as 5 Sep 1922 - I have checked the last two quarters of 1922 for a birth for Catherine Cairns Key there is nothing listed.

So that blows the theory of one the births for David found for you yesterday!!

I wonder if she was born in Scotland? I have no more credit to look for you.

Nicki

Gemma, i have contacted a local newspaper for his area, well that he lived in in 1966. So here's hoping.

Tina

hey tina, thats good lets hope u have some luck

Hiya

Two ways you might be able to find him have you tried www.bt.com there is a d long listed living in SE17 which is local to that area and some others listed worth a try also there is a site called 1stlocate you can do a weeks research for very little it helped me locate a half sister for a friend.Good luck hope you find him.

hi carol, i paid 20 pounds for them to trace with just the name david long and an address and they didnt find one person!! i might try them again as soon as i can narrow down more info. thanks
