Thanks for responding Jess. I don't know of Jane remarrying -hope she didn't!' I am just hoping a Jane Shell, born Ireland around 1812, would jump out at you. I don't have death certificate but age is not too far out and Greenwich would cover Deptford. If you need any more info please yell at me. Thanks again, Selena |

Sorry Jess, that's all i know about my Reece men, if i could find where they are in 51 i was hoping it would lead me to more family, the only possible lead (if you can call it that) is that in 1891 George Thomas Reece was 81 and living in St George the east, and states he was born Bristol Somerset, i know Bristol is in Gloucestershire, but that's what it says. Many thanks Belle. |

Hi Jess Could you hunt down Frances Barnett b. 1840 Pitton, Wiltshire. She is not with her family in 1851. Parents James and Ann Barnett (also nee Barnett) living with their three other daughters in Pitton. She doesn't seem to be in Wiltshire. Maybe staying with relatives elsewhere. I can't see that she died either. Cheers Anna |

Hello Jess, don't know if you can help. I am looking for Jane SHELL on the 61, 81 or 91 census. Jane was born Jane Teape in Ireland around 1812 (father William Teape). She married Elijah Shell in 1837 in Deptford, Kent In 1851 Jane, Elijah and family were living in West Ham Essex. Her children were Elijah, Mary, Ann, William, Jane Husband Elijah dies in 1853 in West Ham Her son Elijah moves around a bit but ends up in Deptford. Jane is not with him on 61, 71, census. I may have Jane on 71 census as a lodger in Lewisham mistranscribed as Sheil, born Ireland age 60. Lewisham next door to Deptford. I think Jane dies in 1893. I have looked on family search for 81 but no luck. Any help is much appreciated. |

Jess, Thank you, marvellous result. 1861 is a mystery for the Smithers in Chobham I think they hid under the carpet..... I expect Frances could have been Fanny do you have a possibility if so ? I am certain they are in Chobham, have got James in 1851 aged 17, and his family in 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901, very nice progression. Frances (wife) was Frances Crane if that helps (my g. grandparents). You are so kind and up very late ? I have to go to work now 8.30 Friday am in Oz !! Heather |

anita - you really need something a bit more concrete to go on- like where were any that may have been alive in 1901 been born, especially with a name like THOMAS In a place as big as Birmingham, what was his mothers name and maiden name - his birth cert will tell you both of these facts |

Jess, Thanks for trying. You wouldn't believe how elusive Henry is. Even the transcripts of the trial are not at the PRO. I don't think I'll ever find him Regards Chris |

Chris- No Henry Sprockett showing 1851 Wales anywhere not sure what i'd find on census and alike - you may find something in the Times newspaper archives though- Merry Montgommery is your 'man' for that really |
