Find Ancestors

Hi Rose Once again you've helped me loads. That looks like them. I've sent you a private message with my email addy in. Thanks again, you're a star!!!! Dawn :-)

Rosemary, Thank You for reply,much appreciated.Will start looking for the Abberly family on 1851 Census of STS.as they may have all returned to England,not just Benjamin. Thanks, Thelma.

Thanks for trying Rosemary, they have been using avoidance all the way along, one step forward six back.

Nelly, Sorry, couldn't find them. Rose

Thanks for the help, James was born abt 1793, wife mary abt 1804. The 2 children born over there Emma abt 1831, Thomas abt 1835. Thanks again, you really work quickly. XX

Nelly, Can you give me James' year of birth? New Foundland is part of Canada and there are only a few immigration records available. Rose

Annie, Sorry, no trace of Percival on the 1910 or 1920 census. Don't see him on the immigration records either. To determine year of marriage on the 1930, compare age at time of census vs age at marriage. The difference for Percival is 7 years so you can assume they married around 1923. Where though is a mystery. Too bad they had no children or I could have possibly tracked them down that way. The census records are continually being updated so perhaps he will turn up later. Rose

Thelma, The only record I found was for a Rowland Aberly who immigrated to the US, arriving at NY in 1831 at the age of 27. There is no other info or image available for this record. I can't find Rowland on the 1830 or 1840 census. Only heads of households were listed until 1850 when all household members were named but I can't find any Aberly/Abberly/Habberly's on the 1850 or 1860 census. Have you been able to find Benjamin on the 1851 UK census? Rose

Rosemary please would you check for James Evans (sometimes born Wales sometimes Shropshire) and wife Mary (sometimes born Staffordshire, usually Shifnal Shrops) their two children were born New Foundland, the first in 1831, sometimes birth place given USA. I imagine they went out about 1829-1830. A few years later they returned to Shropshire. Hope this makes sense, thanks even if you cant help, it is generous of you to offer. XX

Dawn, Found Andrew, wife Elizabeth, daughter Mary and a few other children on the 1860 and 1870 in RI Also found Alfred, wife Ann and several children on the 1860 and 1870 in RI. Am I on the right track? I have saved the images, just need your email address. I'll look for the others in the meantime. Rose

Rosemary, Thank you for your kind offer.On 1861 census of U.K. Benjamin Abberley/Abley /Habberly aged 25yrs gave he was born in America-therefor about 1836-but no State listed.His parents would be Rosanna (Rose-or Anna)and Roland/Rowland.Would appreciate any census/immigration information if possable.I realise this is a difficult request however have no further details. Thelma.

Hi Rose You've helped me in the past and I was wondering if you could find some of this family on the US 1860 census for me? The info is from 1850 US census and they were living in Providence, Rhode Island. As far as I know they stayed in the Rhode Island area. All were born in England, sometimes the name is spelt HATFIELD. ALFRED HADFIELD, age 23 ELIZABETH HADFIELD, age 21 FREDERICK HADFIELD, age 17 CHRISTOPHER HADFIELD, age 15 ANDREW HADFIELD, age 27 ELIZABETH HADFIELD, age 29 MARY HADFIELD, age 4 Hope that you'll be able to help in some way, thanks for your time. Dawn :-)

Becky, Did William come over with his family? I saw a William Sparks on the 1861 born 1854 in Birmingham, living in Birmingham, parents were Charles and Ann. Is this the right William Sparks? He is not appearing on the 1881 or 1901 Canadian Census in Ontario or any other Province. Email me about his family members. Rose

Jean, Unfortunely there is no 1890 census available. What year were they born? Maybe I can find their immigration records. Email me with the info. Rose

Rosemary - thank you so much for the info on Charles & Maria Peace - very very useful. Regards, Sheelagh

Hi Is it possible to look for Robert Fyfe & Margaret McNaughton who were married in 1883 Newark New Jersey and had 3 children that I know of between c1888 & 1895. Robert was a Mason in Scotland on the 1881 census - they were back in Scotland by 1899! Hope you can help Jean

hi Rosemary havejust got hold of my uncle and he confirmes that James hume was a mariner and he thinks he may have been a cook, and it was c1920 that he left allen

Allen, I found a James Hume on the 1910 US census b 1883 in England. Living in San Francisco, boarder, occ: Carpenter. Immigrated 1906 which is probably too early. The only other records I saw were on the Ellis Island site. There are several records for James Hume during the early 1920's who is a member of the passenger ship crew. He is married and would be the right age. Is it possible he fought and died in WW1? He might have gone to Australia. I know there is a few people on GR who have access to various records for Australia. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Rose

Thanks Rose for your help. No i do not have John Carpenters date of birth. Or the boys names unfortunatley all my fathers elderly relatives have all passed away. My Great Great Auntie who kept in touch with them died a couple of years ago and was not of sound mind towards the end. My Dads cousin seems to think it was in the 30s that she went to America but he says he could be mistaken So once again thank you for your kindness Thanks Karen

Hi Rosemary thank's for your offer could you please look for James George Hume bc1884 in Liverpool he marred in 1905 had a couple of kid's then left his wife then left the country i know this is not much information hope you can help allen
