Find Ancestors

Hello again Teresa: You helped me once before find Thomas Downing and wife Eve Green of Bressingham/Roydon on the '41. I'm wondering now if I could push my luck and ask if you if you'd be so kind to see if any of Eve's family are on the '41. The Green parents will be dead and the girls will all have married names I imagine, so it's the 'boys' I'm seeking - Jonathan would be 62, James 60 and Christopher 58 (if they lived that long). Many thanks again, Gordon.

Hello Kathy this is a bit tricky They are certainly NOT in Mutford the town - BUT Mutford is also a registration district so covers a very large area. 1871 gives her birth place as Gt Yarmouth if you think this may be where she is I could look but it is a very large search to do if there is only a remote possibility. As Cassandra and her sibblings are not with their parents but an aunt and uncle in 1871 do you know where the parents were? and is it possible this is your Cassandra smith in 1851 Head: SMITH, Frederick Neighbors 235282 Name Relationship Mar Age Sex Occupation Birthplace Frederick SMITH Head M 54 M Agent to the British Alkali Compy Wandsworth-SUR Elizabeth SMITH Wife M 45 F --- Ilford-ESS Cassandra SMITH Daur U 21 F --- Lambeth-SUR Elizabeth SMITH Daur U 19 F --- Lambeth-SUR Fanny SMITH Daur U 17 F --- Bromsgrove-WOR David SMITH Son U 15 M --- Bromsgrove-WOR Alfred SMITH Son - 12 M Scholar Bromsgrove-WOR George SMITH Son - 8 M Scholar Birmm-WAR Emma SMITH Daur - 5 F Scholar Birmm-WAR Hannah EBURN Serv U 23 F General Servant Birmm-WAR Address: Bristol Road Eastnor Terrace, --- Census Place: Edgbaston Kings Norton, Warwickshire PRO Reference: HO/107/2049 Folio: 93 Page: 18 FHL Film: 0087459 Let me know if you wish me to look at Yarmouth I will be able to do it in the morning if so Teresa

Many thanks for your efforts Teresa, I know it isnt an easy job looking through such old records. Shame you couldnt find John in Heigham, but Horace was his cousin! Many thanks.

Hi Zoe I have emailed you teresa

Hi Theresa, How on earth are you? I've had a couple of months break from family tree research & boy has it done me good-lots of new names on different sites, changes, etc..all to the good & have just got back into it in the last week. I wonder if I could bother you for a couple of families please on the 1861 census, but only when you have time. GRIFFIN -Sarah Griffin-age 44 b.Acle -Samuel Griffin-age 46 b.Lingwood -Rachael Griffin-age 20 b.Acle -Walter Griffin-age 17 b.Acle -James Griffin-age 10 b.Acle -Henry Goodrum (Goodrun(n)) age 82 N.Burlingham Also SCOTT -John age 42 b.Blofield -Ann age 39 b.Moulton -James age 14 b.Strumpshaw -Walter age 12 b.Strumpshaw -Susanna(h) age 9 b.Strumpshaw -Ann age 7 b.Strumpshaw Sorry would you mind checking if John's parents are still alive & kicking? Richard Scott age 69 b.Woodbastwick & Hannah Scott age 71 b.Thurlton Any extras living with any of them would also be appreciated, as always. Hope you're looking after yourself? Best wishes....Zoe, NZ

Hi Teresa, Many thanks. I've sent you an email. You're a star!! Von

Hi Yvonne this is a puzzler. I checked 1851 for your family you probably have them already but maybe you could confirm its the right one. Head: ALGAR, James Neighbors 145980 Name Relationship Mar Age Sex Occupation Birthplace James ALGAR Head M 28 M Ag Lab No Walsham-Nfk Elizabeth ALGAR Wife M 31 F --- No Walsham-Nfk Elizabeth ALGAR Daur U 15 F Servant No Walsham-Nfk Jane ALGAR Daur - 8 F Scholar No Walsham-Nfk Christianna ALGAR Daur - 6 F Scholar No Walsham-Nfk Amy A. ALGAR Daur - 4 F Scholar No Walsham-Nfk Mary A.

In all records the name is spelt either Algar or Alger I can find no Agars - I have the images from 1841 and 1861 if you would like to see for yourself Regards Teresa

Hi Theresa, Would you mind looking on the 1861 please. There might be an Amy Agar (born 1847) on that one, again North Walsham. I can't think of anywhere else to look at the moment. It's possible they were ag. labs and travelled around. Many thanks Von

Hi Yvonne I have searched North Walsham 1841 and not even one person with the name Agar - there were 2 couples with the name Algar but neither had a daughter. Can you suggest anywhere else to look Teresa

Hi Theresa, I wonder if you would be kind enough to look for Elizabeth AGAR in 1841. She was born in 1837 possibly in North Walsham. Many thanks. Von

Hi Eve yes I have them - will need your email to send image Teresa

Hi Ron I have your family if you let me have your email I will send you image Teresa

Hi Teresa Could you look up for me a Robert Ship in the 1841 census he was born Feb 28 1797 in Mendham and married a Mary Smith in 1816 in Starston, Norfolk. Also a James Ship born Jan 24 1819 in Harleston or Starston married Jemima Sadd in 1840 in Harlaston. Thanks for any help Eve

Hi Teresa Many thanks for looking for my Proctors for me - your help as always very much appreciated. Susan

Hello Yvonne I have whom I hope is your Isaac in Illington 1861 (I only feel suspicious as birth place is down as Banham but then again Banham is practically on N Lopham doorstep) if you can let me know your email I will send the image. However I have searched N Lopham - Kenninghall and Banham in 1841 but cannot see him - that said there are quite a few pages that are just impossible to read. Teresa

Hello Jacky I have Henry and his wife Hannah along with emma and 5 other siblings on 1861 - if you let me know you email I will send the image. Please put Henry Frost in subject line so I know who you need Teresa

Many thanks for your offer. I am looking for Isaac Vanham, born in North Lopham in 1825 he was in Kenninghall in 1851 - no idea where he was in 1841, but probably in Illington in 1861. Be thrilled if you found him and his family. Yvonne

please could you look in the 1861 norfolk census for a henry frost and daughter emma frost, emma born cir 1854 in wells. thankyou

Hi Susan There are no Proctors at all in Costessey in 1841 and tho a search of 1851 gives a return of a couple of hundred Proctors none are the ones you mentioned 2 Louisas but not of the age you said the nearest was born 1836 kings lynn no Jemima at all there are 2 roberts but not associated with Costessey one is Tottenhill the other Gt Yarmouth Teresa

Hi Teresa Could you please see if the following family are listed on the 1841 and 1851 census in Costessey, Norfolk: Robert Proctor Jemima Proctor Louisa Proctor (born 1826) Many thanks Susan
