Susan I've had a look for Jemima & Edwin but there are loads of them! Do you know how old either of them were or where they were born? Nikki

Hi Nicola, Please would it be possible for you to look up Annie Stevenson Fogg on the 1871 census for Lancashire. She should have been aged about 10 at this time. I am trying to find her address and details of anyone else living in the house with her. Many thanks Judith

Judith These are the only Annie Foggs listed on the 1871 Lancashire Census. If you want more info on any of them please let me know.... Nikki Annie Fogg 18 Ashbourne, Derbyshire, England Daughter Chorlton on Medlock Lancashire Annie E Fogg 1 Tonge Fold, Lancashire, England Daughter Tonge with Haulgh Lancashire Annie E Fogg 5 Wigan, Lancashire, England Daughter Wigan Lancashire

Hi Nikki, Sadly none of these Annie Foggs are connected to my tree. I am just wondering whether she may have lived in Cheshire in 1871. It would be great if you could check for me. Many thanks Judith

Judith We're not having much luck, these are the Cheshire entries: Annie Fogg 4 Hyde, Cheshire, England Granddaughter Hyde Cheshire Annie Fogg 21 Tranmere, Cheshire, England Servant Tranmere Cheshire

Hi Nikki, No neither of these Annie's are mine. I am going to have to have another think about this one! Many thanks for looking for me though. Judith

Hi Nikki, I hope you don't mind me keeping you busy this afternoon! Please could you see if you can find the marriage of Nathanial Birtles Fogg and Mary Stevenson Jones about 1860/1861 in either Lancashire or Cheshire. Also the death of Mary Stevenson Fogg between 1863 and 1881. Many thanks Judith

Hi , thanks for the offer. Could you please try to find the Guerin family on the 1881 census. They lived in St Pancras London in 1871. Peter age in 1881 58 Margaret 53 Peter 23 Edward 19 jane 20 William 16 Joseph 13 Christopher 14 Francis 11 Peter Snr was a Chelsea pensioner thanks again . Sue

Judith I think I'm cursed today. The BMD coverage for the 1860's is minimal. Therefore can't find the marraige (have you tried 1837 online?) There are loads of Mary Fogg deaths in Lancashire & Cheshire during the dates you specified (no Mary Stevenson Foggs though). Don't be afriad to keep asking for look ups though, we'll get there in the end I'm sure! Nikki

Hello Please could you check for the death of Elizabeth COPELAND, wife of William Copeland, between 1851 and 1854? It's likely to have been Nrthumberland or Cumberland. Elizabeth would be about 40-45 years old. Thanks a lot.

Hi Susan Have looked everywhere for Peter & Family - I've checked Ancestry, the the Familysearch site & family history online but have found nothing at all. Can see them in 1891 but imagine you've already found that yourself. Sorry Nikki

Jackie The most recent Harold Ridgeway I can find in Stockport is in 1909. Sorry!

Margaret Do either of these help? COPELAND, Elizabeth 1852 March Deaths Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland Copeland, Elizabeth 1855 March Deaths Rothbury Northumberland I don't have the age at the date of death though. Nikki

Here we are Jackie.... Ridgway, Harold 1897 June Births Stockport Cheshire Lancashire Ridgway, Harold 1897 June Deaths Stockport Cheshire Lancashire Ridgway, Harold 1900 June Births Stockport Cheshire Lancashire Ridgway, Harold 1902 September Births Stockport Cheshire Lancashire RIDGWAY, Harold 1909 June Births Stockport Cheshire Lancashire

I haven't found Peter and the rest of the Guerin's on 1891 census Nicola. I was going one step at a time. I would be very grateful for that info if you have it. Thanks a lot. Sue

Hi Sue Here they are in 1891: If you want the image send me a message directly with your e-mail address & I'll send it to you. Nikki Guerin, Joseph 23 Camden Town, London Son Isleworth Middlesex Guerin, Margaret 63 Ireland Wife Isleworth Middlesex Guerin, Peter 68 Ireland Head Isleworth Middlesex Guerin, Peter 33 East Tuches Son Isleworth Middlesex

Nikki, Jemima Miller would have been about 37 years old, Edwin not sure, but young Edwin about 18 years old. Jemima was born in Woodford Essex, young Edwin in St. John's Wood. Sorry this is all I have. Thanks for trying, I appreciate your time. Susan

Susan No sign of Jemima or Edwin snr but found Edwin jnr with Aunt & Uncle: Maidman, Elizabeth A 48 Lambeth, Surrey Wife Chingford Essex Maidman, William 42 burlington place woodford, Essex Head Chingford Essex Miller, Edwin 18 st john's wood, Middlesex Nephew Chingford Essex

Thank you, Nikki. Young Edwin was staying with his gran in the 1881 Census, so I think that Jemima and Edwin snr. died before then or were unable to care for their son. I appreciate your time. Susan
