Find Ancestors

hi Tracy, I bet your sorry you started this thread lol will find you some more to do tomorrow lol regards June

Marie, Harry might be Henry, but that's not much help when he doesn't know when he was born lol I'll have a proper look for him in the morning :)

Sylvie, I'll have another look in the morning when I'm more awake :)

Wendy, these children come up matching those parents. You will have to buy the certs to confirm they're yours though. Birth Sep 1920 Yeadon Leslie H Jones Liverpool 8b 137 Birth Sep 1916 Yeadon Jean I E Jones Liverpool.8b 137 Birth Mar 1914 Yeadon Malcolm C Jones Liverpool.8b 188 Birth Dec 1911 Yeadon George D Jones Liverpool.8b 229 can't see any likely candidates before this though.

Cheryl, what dates are those occupations from? I need somewhere to start or I'll be looking forever.

Sorry Gary, I don't have the census for that area.

Sorry Kim, I don't have the censuses for that area.

Sorry Michael, but I think that's out of my capabilities. I don't know if you might be able to get trade directories for that area?

Frances, what brambles? lol I had a look for them, and found these. No idea if any of them are yours though... Birth Mar 1920 Brough Ralph mother - Fellingham Basford.7b 554 Birth Jun 1911 Brough Geoffrey Basford.7b 258 Birth Jun 1909 Brough Maud Ada Basford.7b 246 No Venies anywhere. Is that a nickname of some kind?

Sorry Sylvie, but I'm not having much success with your Kemps. David just vanishes after 1861.

I think he died age 42 in 1905. I would also like to know his occupation please if poss Thank you Joan

Linda, I had a look through my (very limited) 1841 census, but I couldn't find your Joseph. There is definitely only on on the 1861, but I don't know if that helps oyu at all.

Allison, the only one I can think it might be is this... Births Sep 1898 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Norman Dorothy Devizes 5a 110 Do you have her in 1901? Scratch that. I think this is her in 1901... Henry J Norman abt 1873 Calne, Wiltshire, England Head Croydon Surrey Eliza P Norman abt 1872 Haggerston, Middlesex, England Wife Croydon Surrey Dorothy E Norman abt 1899 W Norwood, Surrey, England Daughter Croydon Surrey Frederic W Norman abt 1876 Heddington, Wiltshire, England Brother Croydon Surrey which means this might be her... Births Sep 1898 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Norman Dorothy Elizabeth Greenwich 1d 1076

Tracy if you can find Harry Davies for me in any census I'll share my lottery winnings with you (that'll be when I win something). Here goes Harry Davies married 1916 aged 40 (have marriage cert). Married Annie Ainsworth in Blackpool, Lancashire. Harry Davies (the same one) died 1950 aged 67. (have death cert). Year of birth for Harry according to these certs is between 1876-1883!!!!!!!!!!!!! Marriage cert details- father Alfred Davies occup baker/confectioner. Occupation for Harry on marriage cert is baker/confectioner, it also gives Private no for the war. Harrys' daughter my gran is still alive at the ripe old age of 85 but unfortunately doesn't know (or not saying) anymore details than what I've given apart from the one thing she remembers is that Harrys family ie his father Alfred had a bakers shop in Manchester area. She never met her grandparents. She seems to remember that Harry (her dad) got a girl 'in trouble' and his family disowned him. Have searched endlessy on census' records but come up with nothing that links Harry to Alfred. Have also tried war records but you probably know that a lot of them are destroyed. This is your challenge to find Harry and Alfred Davies. Good luck Marie

hi tracy any chance you could look on the 1841 census for me for a JOSEPH ROBERTSHAW born 1827c in bolton in richmond in yorkshire he married an elizabeth in 1848 in sheffield they had five children im trying to trace his parents whom he would of been living with in 1841 any help would be very appreciative thanx kimx

could you please look up my nan dorothy ellen(emma)? norman born sept 14 1898. allegedly born in wiltshire possibly calne.mothers name elizabeth norman i only know her dads initials which are h.j.norman.she had one brother whose name is will. no one else can find them. thanks allison.

Not so much find out just trying to pick brains to be honest, am not sure if I am 'missing' a Joseph in Yorkshire around that time. Don't think his father would have changed from being a cloth dresser to a carpenter!
