PAULINE Do you think that is the right family in 1871? If so I will search for them names. Lesley

Please can you look up the following people on the 1861 census Joseph Thorn(e) born 1813 in Belper Derbyshire Mary Thorn(e) born 1820 in Duffield Derbyshire They should have children Samuel, Thomas and Elizabeth with them but if you could find any more children and where they were in 1861 I will be extremely grateful. I have been to the records office for Derbyshire and can't find them. Thank you in advance. Jenny

Sorry, I didn't see the first message you left about 1871. I didn't scroll down the message list any further than the 1881 reply. It looks good, thank you Pauline

Hi Lesley Thanks for the kind offer! I am helping a friend trace his fathers family. Thomas Bailey b 3/12/1932 in Birmingham, the mother Ann died two weeks later in the B'ham women's hospital d 18/12/1932. The father was Joseph Bailey who was supposed to be 44 at the time so makes him b. c1888 I think perhaps Ann was similar age as they had an older son but we don't know the name (would love to know where his family are). They seem to think the mothers name was also Bailey when she married Joseph (but could be wrong) We don't have a date for the marriage or any other info except that Thomas was placed in an orphanage and was evacuated to Nottingham during the war, his father was still around in 1946 (in birmingham) and apparently the brother was in the Royal Navy at the time. Any info on a marriage etc would be grateful although I do realise there is not much to go on! By the way we don;t think Thomas's birth was ever registered. Hope you can help Lesley Best wishes Karen

Thank you very much. This is definately the right ones. Could I ask if you could find the marriage of Joseph and Mary thorn. Mary was born in Duffied Derbyshire and all the children were born in Duffield Derbyshire but I couldn't find a marriage in Duffield. Could you look if there are any marriages in Derbyshire for Joseph thorn and Mary before 1850 please. Thank you for all your help. Jenny

JENNIFER sorry nothing coming up for Marriage Lesley

DIANE Sorry cant find any marriage for John Morgan Lesley

Hi Lesley Hope it's not too late for you. Could you be kind enough to lookup my great great grandparents on the 1861 census please. They were called William and Maria CHARLES. They would have been about 23-25ish in 1861. William was born in Oldcroft, West Dean, Gloucestershire and Maria was born in East Dean, Gloucestershire. I'm not sure whether the Forest of Dean would have been classed as Gloucestershire or Monmouthshire as I'm not sure where the exact boundaries of Wales and England were at that time. Fingers crossed Much appreciated Kath

thank you for looking. Jenny

RIGHT THATS IT FOR TONIGHT Goodnight all If you put any more requests up I will check them tomorrow. Lesley

Thankyou so much. I've just discovered that they had another 2 sons that I didn't know about!! Thanks so much for that extra bit of information. Unfortunately, they may have died because they are not there 10 years later. Hope you don't mind if I ask you for some more information tomorrow, I won't bother you anymore tonight as it's late now. Cheers. All the best Kath xxxx
