Find Ancestors

Hi Stephanie Many thanks for this kind offer - I have Philip Phillips(45) and Mary Phillips(43) and their family living in Hindon, Wiltshire on the 1851 census could you please see if there is another Mary Phillips(43) and her sister Caroline Dukes(34) in Hindon on the census. I have found a Mary Phillips on the 1861 and 1871 census but am not sure whether she is my ancestor or not. Susan

Hi Jamie, sorry - no Fanny Swatton at all - there are quite a few Swattons - some in the Bulford/Amesbury area. There is one Swatton born Salisbury - he is an 11 yr old, living with grandparents in Bulford. The only Diana Swatton is marked as unmarried and living with brother in law. Let me know if you want details of the 11y old. Stephanie

Hi Stephanie, I amlooking for your help agian. You recently found my family of Watts in Axford Ramsbury, and I am hoping you can find a few missing children for me. Igi has listed to Edward and Harriet Watts a Oscar henry 1848, Ernest 1837 and Wallace 1840. These three dont turn up on the census till at least 1881. Where are they in between? Julie

Hi Stephanie If you have a nmaed index for this could you look for Charles Welch, have him on 1841 in Mere with wife Martha and daughter Elizabeth and sons William and John. However I believe they could have been two of them with daughter's Elizabeth as otherwise according to Mere Church records he married about 4 times in 6 years and had two daughters called Elizabeth. My Charles Welch age 76 Pensioner of the army with wife Martha and sons William age about 18 and John about 15 not sure if Elizabeth would have married age about 22. Living in Mere. these ages relate to 1851 Is there another Charles Welch with/ without a daughter Elizabeth age about 21 living in Mere. If you do not have a named index please do not worry as know how time consuming it can be, Many thanks Maureen

Hi Stephanie, Thanks for the offer. Could you possibly look for a William and Elizabeth Harding. They had two children (I think) Mary Anne born 1828 and Sarah born 1837 in Sutton Veney. Also John Simpkins born about 1824 in Lydiard. I think that his father may have been a Richard. Any help would be much appreciated. Lisa
