Find Ancestors

see below for further details ...

*Please don't message direct with requests * I NEED to know what district your rellies SHOULD be in ! I need Full name and ages etc of all known family members. The 1841 isn't Street indexed but it would be handy to have the street to verify findings. I am also offering other Lookups on the board, so please "bear with me" as these Derbyshire Lookups take longer than anything else, and I'm NOT here 24 hrs a day ! Hope I can help. This census is so clearly written, it is a pleasure to search. Elaine :-)

Hi Elaine, On the census's 1871 1881, I have Edward Jones, born Codnor, and his Mother Hannah Barkley, born Codnor, but have not located their births. Edward was born about 1836, Hannah about 1811. If you can't find them........thanks for looking Anne

can you please look up for me john woodhouse wife eliza son william ,Whittington Chesterfield Derbyshire thanks

* Anne Threadgill* Sorry, your two aren't in Codnor OR Heanor on the 1841. Checked Heanor cos they are both less than a mile from me, and run into each other. Elaine :-)

Thanks for looking Elaine, out of all my family tree, the ones in Derbyshire are giving me more grief than anything.....Where are they!!!!!!!!

*** Anne*** Derbyshire is such a beautiful county, folks moved about a LOT, not wanting to miss any part of it !!! Although the industry has now brought may industrial sites, I think the beauty of the countryside must have been a thousand times better back in 1841 ... and its mostly nice enough now ! Elaine :-)

* Pamela Pass * I've checked all of Whittington .. and although there are a few Woodhouse families, the nearest I could find was on a VERY faint page and I think thats it only wishful thinking that I could POSSIBLE make William & Elizabeth look like John & Eliza. I wish I had better news. So sorry. Elaine :-)

I'm impatient....but only if you have the time! Brailsford (that is ALL it says on the cert, no addie) Charles Hulland approx 31 Ann Hulland approx 30 William Hulland approx 8 George Hulland approx 4 POSSIBLY Charles Hulland, not sure what part of 1841 he was born. Burton is Staffordshire for census, yes? Ta babe Lou x

Hi Elaine My gt gt gt grandfather John Alton bn 1764 Alfreton married Abigail Walters bn 1772 Alfreton They married in Alfreton 1793 I wondered if there is any record of them on the 1841 census. Also Thomas Alton bn 15 March 1796 Alfreton married Rebecca Slater bn 1797 South Wingfield they married 1819 South Wingfield I wondered if there was any record of these two ancestors on the 1841 census I have been struggling with these for some time with very little return. any info would be much appreciated Elaine.

Hi Elaine, In the vain hope that you can help me trace my illusive great grandfather, here goes!! John William Woodruff, born Glossop c 1833. Father (on marriage certificate) Edward Woodruff. I have no other details of his family before 1860 when he married in Ireland!! He was a soldier from 1856 and only gave 'Native of Glossop' on his Discharge Papers, so not much help there. If you can't find him, I quite understand, as it is a bit vague. Here's hoping. Margaret

*Susan from W Yorks* Sorry...NO Higginbottom's in the Brampton area. John Bennett = 2: Page 546 of 645; John Bennett 35 Alice 30 Hannah 3 Amelia 3 Israil 2mths all b Derbyshire, living in Brampton Page 537 of 645; John Bennett 54 Sarah 57 John 20 Sarah 14 John Bennett 80 (same household) There are NO Jemima Bennett's in the Brampton area. If you think either of the above John Bennett's belong to you, please send me message with your e.mail addy and I will get the image and send it to you. Haven't saved them. Need Page info that I have provided with details as well. Elaine :-)
