Find Ancestors

Thanks Steve, That's definately John, Alice Ada Brown was one of the names I had, a big thankyou for that. As for Margaret when I put her details in the bmd the only other name on the page was Carr Robson, so Idon't know what to think on that one. You're a saint Steve, thanks Paula.

Hello Steve yes it does sound promising (william moore), by your info is he caroline burrows brother? If you could find any more info that would be great. Thanks Sharon

Hi Steve - THis is just to check that this gets added to your thread. Have posted twice today making the same request but nothing got on to your thread. RitaJ

Hi Steve sorry its me again. Is there any chance you can find any info on the following 2 people i am having a hard time with them. Reginald Charles Taylor born anytime between 1895 - 1916 married Daisy May Humphreys born around the same time not sure where they were born we think it was Essex but there is someone saying Reginald may have been born in Ipswich so either of those. They went on to live in Earls Colne Essex so this could be where they got married althought they probably got married after 1911 so you wont find their marriage but birth dates and place would be great to know. It is my grandfathers side of the family and he passed away in 91 so there isnt anyone to get info from as he lost touch with his 2 brothers when they were all put into a home. If you could find anything i would be most grateful. I found in the 1901 census a Daisy born 1899 in Tendring Essex but not sure if this is her. I look forward to hearing from you thanks so much

Hi Stephen Hope this reaches your thread today. I have tried to find the following on Freebdm but no luck. I have trawled 1859/60/61 but unless I have overlooked him then he is not recorded during that period. Freebdm for 1858 only covers September qtr, P/Z, so can't search there, so if you have access to BDMs other than Freebdm, could you look for the following particularly in 1858: Arthur DEE, born Lambeth, Surrey, aged 2 in the 1861 cen., living/visiting with grandad Dennis DUGGAN and family at 9 West Lane, Rotherhithe, Surrey. I have been told that he and Dennis Duggan are not on the 1871 census, whether a further check would show otherwise is anybody's guess. Arthur is still living with grandad in the 1881 census at 48 Marigold St., Bermondsey, Surrey. I'm want to get a birth cert. for Arthur so really hope that you can turn him up. Regards Rita

Hi Steve Could I ask for another lookup please? I'm looking for George and Caroline Aldwinckle in Leicester on the 1871 and 1891 if you don't mind. George br Drayton, Leicester and aged 26 in 1871 and Caroline born Lutterworth and aged 21 in 1871. Thanks Tracey

Hi Steve Info I have is on 1881 census Monks Coppenhall.Cheshire. Head:James Evans b:1847 Wrenbury. Wife: Sarah b:1844 Audlem. Stepson: Samuel Wright b:1862 Ash Shropshire Stepdaughter: Ann Wright b;1865 Wrenbury cheshire. I am looking for Sarah's maiden name. I'm assuming Wright is her Ex Husbands surname???? Is there any way you can find out for me? there are other children on 1881 census named Evans. Any info re: Sarah or James Maiden name/siblings/parents would be great. Many thanxs Lesley :~)

Thanks Steve, Is the Daisy that you found the one i mentioned born in Tendring 1899? if not is it possible to have the info you found? Also im sorry i am being really cheeky as i look through my tree i find other people that need info on i hope its ok. Would you mind looking up an Aubrey Aston/Ashton Ambrose born 16.04.1882 died 18.08.1958 not sure where i know he died in Catford London. Is there any chance you can see who his parents were and if he had any siblings? Sorry to be such a pain. Thanks so much

Steve, you are a star! I hope it didn't take too long to look, I appreciate your help. Kindest Regards Tracey

Hi Stephen could you please have a look for some information on Wallace or Walter Griffiths born 2nd December between 1885- 1901. He possibly had a sister called Winnifred. He married Isabella Whitney in 1918 and he died in 1957 I would to be able to find out when and where he born or his parents names

Claire Yes, the Daisy I found was the same one you had found. As for Aubrey, I can find only one Aubrey Ambrose on the 1891 census. Obviously the year of birth is an estimation based on age and since Aubrey was born after the census date, then they would underestimate. Name Estimated Birth Year Birthplace Relationship to head-of-house Civil parish County View Image Ambrose, Aubrey abt 1883 Leeds, Kent Son Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Cora abt 1889 Hollingbourne, Kent Daughter Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Ela abt 1885 Leeds, Kent Daughter Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Ethel abt 1887 Leeds, Kent Daughter Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Frank abt 1880 Leeds, Kent Son Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Lillian abt 1879 Leeds, Kent Daughter Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, Susan abt 1846 Elham, Kent Wife Sevenoaks Kent Ambrose, William abt 1843 Harriestham, Kent Head Sevenoaks Kent Cheers Steve

Thanks so much for all of that Steve. I think this must be the Daisy im looking for as her name was definitely Humphreys. Thanks for the info on Aubrey ill look into it.

Hi Steve Thanxs for that. What is the address please? Any idea why Samuel and Ann had different surnames in 1881 census than 1871 census, In 1881 it said Step son and step daughter both surnames Wright. Yet in your 1871 census they are Evans's. Thanxs again lesley :~)

Hi Steve, Could you please look up Mary Hampson 1854 Skelmersdale lancashire and Johnson Hampson 1863 Aughton Lancashire in 1861 cesus dont know if they are brother and sister or cousins regards June

Angela This must be them in 1891; Yates, Adelaide L abt 1877 Newton Sproth, Yorkshire Daughter Doncaster Yorkshire Yates, Albert H abt 1874 Hay Green Worsbro, Yorkshire Son Doncaster Yorkshire Yates, Fredk abt 1883 Bentley;arksey, Yorkshire Son Doncaster Yorkshire Yates, George abt 1849 Alguholme, Lincolnshire Head Doncaster Yorkshire Yates, Hannah abt 1852 Worsborough, Yorkshire Wife Doncaster Yorkshire Yates, William abt 1890 Doncaster Son Doncaster Yorkshire I'm afraid I can't find them in 1901. Steve

Natalie Do you have any idea what region Wallace/Walter would have been born? There are 52 possibilities on the 1901 census, all over the country. Cheers Steve

Lesley in 1871 the Evans' were living in Grindleys Green, Wrenbury, Cheshire. It's not the first time I've seen children alternate from son/sau to stepson/stepdau and their surname tends to change accordingly. I think a lot depends on who gave the information on the census form at the time, nothing more interesting nor sinister than that. Cheers Steve
