Just a quick question Suzanne.........

You say you have both of William's birth certs.

What is Robert's occupation on the second one and does it actually state that Deborah's name is now Rowlandson, formerly Peelow?

Does it give an occupation on either for Deborah?

Are there any addresses on there?

No worries - I have found them !

Deborah is now 'Delrack', born 6 years earlier than before and now born Ireland :-D :-D ;-)

P.S. - It does have her down as 'married' though, not 'single' !

Hi Suzanne,

I have heard from my 'contact' re the Gornalls and she is looking into it for us.

In the meantime, you have said:

"On the 1861 census Deborah is listed as being single and living with her son"

I can't see them? - Can you give me the census reference please, or post the census, or tell me what names they are using please as I would like to take a look at it?

Thanks,

Dea x

Hello Dea.....have contacted them.... i will let you know if i get a response

suzanne

I will tell you in the morning !!

Nite nite - sorry I am a granny now and so have to go to bed !!

Dea Xxx

Dont know how i do that. do i need to key in their reference somewhere?

Suzanne

Have sent an e-mail to my lady. - Did you make contact with the person on Ancestry ??

Dea Xxx

Thank you that would be brill.

night

There is a private tree on there - the owner is JW13055 - this person seems to have all the family members on it who we have been following.

I suggest you contact them and see if they can give you any info on Robert Gornall Rowlandson.

I am also acquainted with someone who doing a one name study on the Gornall family and has information on the Gornall family going back to the 1600's and probably beyond as it is a few years since we were in touch.

She is NOT a 'name collector' who just adds on any name to her tree even though it is not connected. - All her information is thoroughly researched and 'proven' !

I will contact her in the morning and see if she has anything useful.

Speak soon - nite night now,

Dea x

only a free one at the moment for 2 weeks.....like robert i have fallen on hard times! :-)

Any ideas what i should be searching?

Suzanne

Do you have an Ancestry sub Suzanne?

Dea x

Hello Dea,

Just another thought. on the wedding banns that were read at St Stephens the names are Robert Rawlandson and Deborah Peelow, again a different spelling than on the birth certificate.

Do you think he could have fallen on hard times and hence the change in occupation?

Suzanne

Hello Dea,

The 1881 census is defo correct as mr GGG grandfather was a French Polisher and on the marriage certificate of William Henry and Annie Bird the occupation of himself and his father are correct and the address is Alice Street, so I know those details are right. On the birth certificate of William his mother is stated as Deborah Peelow and his father as Robert Rowlinson, merchants clerk....as Robert is listed on the 1881 as being born in Leyland the same as the 1871 and 1861 census and the year of birth is the same as Robert Gornall Rowlandson. Seems too much of a coincidence that it isnt the same person.


Suzanne

On 1871 when he is with Deborah he is a'Shipping Clerk' and before that a Merchant's Clerk, which seems to fit well with Robert Gornall, However, the one you have on 1881 is a Cotton Warehouseman - a more 'lowly' position ?? AND the names are different ?

I really don't think that it is the same 'Robert' ?

What have you got to prove that the 1881 census is him please?

Dea x

HANG ON !!!

I have just seen your post about the '81 at 5 Alice Street.

If this is 'your' Robert, he is NOT the 'Robert Gornall' one !!! - The occupation is all wrong !!

Well, this looks like the Catherine Jones who Robert married in 1863 - she is marked as married but there is no 'husband' present ??

It is looking more likely that Robert Gornall Rowlandson could be 'your man' ??
