Find Ancestors

Hi Claire - thank you so much - this is my first breakthrough ! The 1901 Morleys have to be mine - can you find details of George and Ellen's (Topp) marriage around 1880 and their deaths around 1904 ? Also could you please search for them in the 1861 census so I can find their siblings and parents. I am so grateful ! Thankyou !

Grace do you have a rough estimated year of birth or can you tell me that they were born before a certain year?? Were they born in Southwark or just lived there. I did a search on their names and it bring up so many i looked through them for about 10 pages and there were none in the Southwark area if i have a rough idea of birth or even death d you know when they died or married?? xx

Hi Trudy, looked for their marriage in Middlesex since thats where they were living in 1901 Morley, George 1881 June Marriages Kensington Greater London London Middlesex TOPP, Ellen 1881 June Marriages Kensington Greater London London Middlesex There are 2 deaths for George in Middlesex ill give you them both so you can see which one you think it is, MORLEY, George Record Type: Deaths Age at death: 1 Quarter: March Year: 1904 District: Stepney County: Greater London London Middlesex Volume: 1c Page: 250 (click to see others on page) and Morley, George Record Type: Deaths Age at death: 0 Quarter: September Year: 1903 District: Islington County: Greater London London Middlesex Volume: 1b Page: 126 (click to see others on page Ill just have a look for ellen There is one for an ellen around 1904 but she is aged 79 so there is no way that could be her. now let me check the 1861 see if i can find them Heres George George Morley abt 1851 Radcliffe on Trent, Nottinghamshire, England Son Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire Rebecca Morley abt 1826 Godstone, Leicestershire, England Daughter Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire Robert Morley abt 1860 Radcliffe on Trent, Nottinghamshire, England Son Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire Sarah Morley abt 1858 Radcliffe on Trent, Nottinghamshire, England Daughter Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire Willim H Morley abt 1850 Radcliffe on Trent, Nottinghamshire, England Son Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire I cant seem to find Ellen and i have checked on the 1871 which is strange xx

Claire, this is great ! Thanks so much. I am unsure as to exact year of George and Ellen's deaths - could be anytime between 1900 and 1910. Could you check other years please ? Ref the 1861 how come there are no parents listed - any idea ? I wonder why Ellen is not listed - could you check on 1881 or 1891 or maybe she was living somewhere else. I do appreciate all your help. Trudy.

Trudy This is the only other one i can find in Middlesex between 1900 and 1910 where he isnt 70 something but here they show his age so i dont know whether he died before he was 1 or whether it is just not listed! Name: MORLEY, George James J Record Type: Deaths Age at death: 0 Quarter: March Year: 1904 District: Stepney County: Greater London London Middlesex Volume: 1c Page: 255 (click to see others on page) cant find Ellen and opened the time up to 1900 - 1920 nothing!! Is there anywhere else that they could have been living when they died?? Just check the 1861 again see if there was another page i dont remember there being one though. xx

Trudy i am wondering whether Georges parents had died by 1861 and Rebecca the eldest was taking care of them all. Robert was born 1860 so it is possible that the parents died between 1860 and 1861. Think i have found them on 1891 living in Kensington George is listed as a bricklayer aged 41 Ellen aged 32 and 2 children Harry 8 Annie 4 both born in Kensington Just seen where George was born so this is definitely them since it says he was born Notts, Radcliffe. xx

Hi Claire,Thankyou so much Yes that is her,I recognise a couple of her siblings names. Could you possibly let me have their address. I would be very grateful. Thankyou again, Eunice

Hi Eunice no prblem her address is very hard to read if you would like to have a look at the image and have a go at trying to work out what it says i would be more than happy to email it to you if you mail me your email address. xx

Hi Claire, Thankyou Have sent e-mail address Regards

Thanks Claire, Not sure yet if theyre the right ones. Its a bit of a process of elimination,Thanks for your help much obliged. Regards Mike

Hi Claire Can I ask for a lookup on the 1891 and 1901 census please. I am looking for Ann Heritage born in Ellesborough, Buckinghamshire in 1838 and was last kknown on the 1881 census in Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. She was widowed and was head of household on the 1881 census. Thanks again, Emma

ok Eunice i have emailed you the image good luck xx

Emma couldnt seem to find her on 1891 but have got her on 1901 Ann Heritage abt 1838 Ellesborough, Buckinghamshire, England Head Chipping Wycombe Buckinghamshire Frederick Heritage abt 1869 Hughendon, Buckinghamshire, England Son Chipping Wycombe Buckinghamshire I will try and search for Frederick in 1891 see what that brigs up no cant find him on there either, its a bit strange but i hope what i have found in 1901 helps Their address is listed as Deerhams Anns occupation as a farmer and Fredericks as a Farm carter. Hope this helps xx

Hi Claire, Many thanks for '71 image. Have sent PM. Regards,Eunice

Hi Claire Thats perfect, thankyou. I know she did not marry again so that there were no more children. Thanks again for all your help, Emma

Thanks so much Claire - the date and place of death is a mystery - I'll try and find out if they could have lived somewhere else at that time. Is there any way you can find more about Ellen's(born 1859 Kensington) parents and siblings ? Thanks again for all your help. Trudy

Trudy i cannot see anyway that i can find anything out aboutthem without having a name for at least one of the parents or siblings!! If you have any of this or any rough ideas then i can maybe look for them see what it brings up xx

Hi Claire, could you try to find Pheobe Phillips on the 1861, she would have been 14 ish (born 1847). The registration district for her birth was Pembroke. I know there isn't much info but I would be grateful if you would try . Sue

Susan i cant find her i also looked on the 1871 and found one Phoebe Phillips born around 1847 but in Kent married to a George. There are a few in 1861 that have a birth date 5 years either side of 1847 but none of them in Pembroke. Do you have anything else on her?? xx
