Indeed, i have a whole half of my tree all Scottish, and i have a few strays.... and alot of headaches!

Your options are Emmigration, Military or Death.

Emmigration might be a case of waiting til the lists are more complete.

Military would be a case of going through the lists and seeing if you can find them (parent details would be on the next of kin page on the docs)

Death.... well thats a harder one, you might have to wait until someone else has some of the same family members and they know something more than you do.

Sorry for being so thick, got a really bad back and can't think straight today, Oh well !!!!!!

No they are not on any of their siblings marriage certs or parents death certs, they surely don 't make it easy .

cheers

Hi Jean

I meant on all the other family members.... maybe they pop up somewhere on one?

Or a witness on a marriage of a sibling?

Hello again Tracey,

No I have never been able to find a marriage or death for either in Scotland .
You are probably right about the military but how would I find out please,

Cheers

Hi Tracey

A right little miracle worker. Thanks again for all your efforts. I'm away to study it all. Knowing how easily confused I am may take some time:-))).

Jean as a thought, do you have all the death certs to se if they pop up somewhere?

Or marriage certs?

My money would be on the military?

Hey Jeanie (all these Jeans is gonna get complicated!)

I've had a lok at your PM, and i think your right, the second wife just didn;t have the right details on the first...it's completely plausable.

The other data is too close to be ignored.

I am still having a peer about to ses if something else pops up!

Hey Jean,

Having had a good look around, including the 1911 Irish census (incase they went back to where their father came from) and i couldn't find them!

Have you considered they may have emigrated? or that either one or both have joined the military?

I cannot see anyting on the emmigration records, however these are not fully transcribed, so it might be a case of sitting and waiting.

Sorry i couldn't be of more help.

Hello Tracey. :) I sent that information directly to springflower since I wasn't sure she would see it here, and she is interested in the Mr Kuhl so ... I said she had better get the marriage certificate, lol. I think this is the first time I have seen a case where somebody needed a certificate to know the person's sex!

Jean

Jean Report 27 May 2010 19:17

Can't believe I have just deleted my own post so I wil start again.

Hi Tracey,
I am hoping you might be able to find these 2 brothers , they are,
Henry Moore d.o.b. 3.6.1859 in Glasgow , last on the 1881 scottish census living with his parents, occupation Hammerman.
Alexander Moore d.o.b. 26.4.1880 in Glasgow , last on the 1891 scottish census aged 11.
Their parents are Henry and Margaret nee Stewart.
I have not been able to find a marriage or death for them anywhere in Scotland, so any help from you would be appreciated.
thank you
jean

Nice find Bruce,

I didn't do anything but the basic research on this person specifically because the certs will hold more details than we can find.

I'm not a fan of chasing my own tail trying to find data that can easily be found by buying a cert.

Once Springtime comes back with more details we can help her further, as a footnote tho there are both male and female Linley births

chrissiex Report 27 May 2010 17:32

I may have a surprise for springtime lol, if I may butt in.

Linley C Kuhl was a girl. She was born Linley C Thomas and married a Mr Kuhl late in life.

Births Sep 1915
Thomas Linley C mmn John Narberth 11a 2524

That will be another very good reason to get certificates, to find out what sex the person was!


editing . . . I thought maybe that was mistaken because there are births with those surnames in the 1960s and 1970s but another Thomas married a Kuhl just a little earlier.

Yeah the Alfred death is the one born 1864, the son of Alfred J and Mary A Chappell.

Hi Tracey

I've been checking my notes on previous enquiries. I have an Alfred White death from previous enquiry as:

7221/1894 ALFRED J SYLVANUS MARY A - LISMORE (a district of NSW - as is Yarra) - so presumably the son of Sylvanus and Mary Ann Steeden born after they arrived in Australia.

If the 1928 Alfred death is the Alfred James who emigrated he would have been 92!

Alternatively it could be Alfred William the son of Alfred James and Mary Ann Chappell born in 1864.

Why oh why cannot they name their children other than after themselves and their relatives. Gets so confusing! Needs a sharper brain than mine to sort it all out.

Jeanie

Edit: Having looked at it all again guess it must be Alfred William's death in 1928.

Dozey Report 26 May 2010 13:54

Thanks Tracey. That's really great. I'm very hopeful your efforts will bear fruit for both my tree and the Aussie one.

All the best

Hey Jean,

Have you seen a public tree by the name of 'Barry Family Tree' on A*try?

They appear to have Alfred James White & wife Mary Ann they also appear not to know Mary Ann's surname and only have Alfred William White as the only child listed (no parents for Alfred senior either)

They have Alfred married to Sophia Elizabeth Olley 1874-1924, (no date for the marriage). They have a death for Alfred as 13 Jul 1928 Lismore, NSW.

Only 1 child listed of the marriage, Keith Olley White 1907 - 1971.

Did you already have this info?


Tracey x

EDIT:

It appears Alfred is on the One World Tree and his marriage to Sophia is listed as ...

15 May 1893 in Mayfield Rosehill, New South Wales, Australia

....and their entire collecton of children...

Hector C White M 1899 in Lismore, New South Wales, Australia
Living White M
Living White F
Living White M
Edward William White M 1894 in Tuncester, Leycester Property Lismore, New South Wales, Australia
