sorry ignore last post i only received half your post pc was playing up lol

Robin

Robin Report 6 Dec 2008 18:50

the reason i have said john bellamy and he changed his name possibly is that in the 1861 census he is the right age from exeter and a seamon on a ship and there was no other john bellamys born in exeter 5 years either side of 1821 so it must be the same person but why change your name?

the only death i can find for a william bellamy in exeter,is this one in 1860 but you say he was on 1861 census....

so if he died in 1860 he will not be on any census after 1851 or was he still called william what evidence do you have he was buried at sea i suppose anyone commited to the sea they would plot location of buriel at sea on ocean maps and plots will look up buriels at sea

Robin

Robin Report 6 Dec 2008 19:19

that must be him in 1860 then as he was born 1821 that makes him the exact age!

Robin

hi this is jase kathy,s husband over the years we have been doing our reasearch we have come across many things letters appearing in surnames letters disapearing respelling of surnames to register a death birth marriage was not a legal requirement until 1871 up until then you had to pay people told porkies about where they were born incase they were moved on back to place of origin this gene,s lark is a maze you have to tread careful to get the correct information after 4 years im still trying to locate my grandfather dad what a nightmare just becareful what is good info and what is crap good luck with your search it was a pleasure trying to help you
