Find Ancestors

I guess some of us just don't see the point of reposting the same thing over and over, especially when the form it's in takes up half a metre of space and it's been all posted neatly and succintly already, there really just is no point at all.

Barbara please do read the thread, you are just reposting information that has been fully explored.


If you would delete it, it would prevent confusion and make the thread easier to read ...............

It would have Barbara if all that information had not been in the thread already, in the case of Kezia multiple times, always best to read it through first, lol.

I had posted that birth of William on the first page Barbara....there is also a death in 1844 so may not be him

and Chrissie has posted Kezia's

Thank you for the advice I will keep it in mind if I do decide to contact them, and thank you very much for your time and help

I don't think there are any records other than the marriage certificate, for an address at time of marriage.

Just a word of advice when contacting someone else here or at Ancestry, people including me generally recommend not starting with asking to see someone's tree, which can be somewhat private so that can be seen as a slightly intrusive approach, but rather offering information about your connection with the people in question and what you are wanting to find out, and then asking whether maybe you are related and whether they can tell you anything about the people.

I've just had a look at the 1881 census and I don't know the person who changed it, I will see if they will give me promise to look at their tree

chrissiex I think you have done it :)

This looks like the family

But it opens more questions than answers

One year later they are married in Bow 1862

Kezia says she 20yrs at time of marriage

William age is right, but he now a Gardner

Me thinks there maybe a baby involved here somewhere.

There no address on the marriage cert only Bow. Do you know if the address would be held on record, or did they only have to give the area they livged in to get married ?????

Thank you so much I may not need the padded cell yet x

yeeeeeesh

they all seem to be 'submitted records' with mother as Susan or Susannah Cass or Cast

there is a submitted record for a Susannah Cass or Cast born in 1782 which seems improbable

You should get Kezia's birth certificate I think.

A submitted record in the IGI has the mother of Keziah as Susannah Cass

so this would be hear death probably

Deaths Mar 1853
Humphries Susan Dunmow 4a 238

however if she was the same age as Henry, if I have the right Henry, she was really too old to have a child in 1847

Births Jun 1847
HUMPHRIES Lucy Emma Dunmow 12 84


I can't find any of them in 1841 or 1851 for love nor money and can't find Kezia in 1861

do you know the person who has corrected her name at Ancetry in the 1881 census?

the correction was made almost a year ago, and the person has logged in to Ancestry sometime in the last 6 months, and lives in Australia, but has given no explanation for why they made the correction (the image does look like R)

Some thing about this family has got to be true, actually no it doesn't :)

So where do I go from here ???? other than a padded cell :)
