Find Ancestors

Hi Susan If you are still doing lookups, please could I ask you to have a look for: John Willmott, 70, born Chester, Upholsterer Susan Willmott, 61, born Lambeth (wife) They were definately in Croydon in 1864 (children baptised at St John the Baptist, Croydon) and in 1881 (living at 1 Alma Place on census), so they should be somewhere in Croydon in 1871. I know Croydon is probably going to be quite a large area, so if there is too much to look through, don't worry. Thanks very much, Lesley

Hi All Hopefully I've just about caught up now. A lot of them are sadly not covered on the Surrey discs so if anyone has a detailed listing of what's on the London 1871 disc it would be very interesting. Best wishes Sue

Hi if you have time it would be wonderful if you could help! My father's family came from egham and were living in Gravel Pits Egham (sounds wonderful!) My great grandfather was born in 1860 and his name was Alfred caleb turner. His father was caleb turnermarried to Ann Maria murphy. Any further info you could find from the 1871 census would be fantastic. Do you also have access to the 1861? ANN

Susan I really appreciate this. Can you try for the SMOOTHY family in Richmond, Surrey?

Farnham Royal/Stoke Poges, Bucks, age 45 and their children: Elizabeth Louisa, age 11 Emily Esther, age 9 John David Robert, age 2/3 Edith Mary, about 1 Address possibly The Green, or Vestry Cottage Many thanks Helen

Sorry all. Didn't realise this thread was still active. Will try and catch up this weekend. Sue

Dear Susan, Thank you for your offer, I hope you can still help. Would you look up William Barratt, born 1843, his wife, Sarah Harriet Barratt, born 1844 and their children, Florence, born 1866, William S., born 1869 and possibly Rosina E., born 1871? They were living at 5 Albert Terrace, Deptford Road, (now Lower Road) Rotherhithe, in 1875, though it is possible that they were not living there Four years previously. William was originally from Hemel Hempstead, he had brothers called Samuel and John. His father was called John, a glove maker and his mother was called Esther. William was a steam boat stoker or a foreman at the navigation company, Sarah was a machinist, sewing shirts or collars. I hope this is enough information. Please help me if you can, when you have the time. Thank you very much. Claire

I am looking for information on Rosina Chaplais living in Surrey She would have two sons Pierre b1861 and Charles b1862. She may have been living with a Richard Johnson. In 1879 she married Richard and in the 1881 census they were running the Duke of Wellington in Kingston on Thames. She had a daughter called Kate Emily in 1871 - her birth is registered as Kate Johnson but at marriage it says her father is Pierre Chaplais - Rosina's first husband who died in 1865???? I have also found a John Chaplais claiming that Rosina and Pierre were his parents but nothing anywhere other than his marriage on familysearch. Help!! Please would you be able to look on your 1871 census for me. Many thanks

Thank you Sue for your kindness and time and effort. Elaine:-)

Hello, again, Susan: Are you able to find Mary Hooker (nee Courtnadge), b. Worplesdon, 1830 married John Hooker in 1857. Also Ellen (Mary's sister) Stovold married George Stovold - possibly living in Milford by 1871? Regards, Terry Courtnadge.

Hi Susan Could you try for a William Samuel Crawley 19 [he could be listed as just William] in the 1881 census he is in Cardigan St Lambeth, in 1851 his family was in Gloucester St Vauxhall Walk he was not born until the June of that year. The family have lived in Tyers St, Wickham St & Vauxhall Walk all in the Lambeth area. I have found the name listed as Shawley, Cranley as well as the correct Crawley. May be listed as Crowley [but there's loads of them] His birthplace is Lambeth and he is a blacksmith/farrier. I found the family with a son Thomas, cant find my copy now, but William was not with them. Thanks, Christina.

Hi, Susan, Could you check for whereabouts of this lady, please. Sarah Ann Richards born 1864 Bermondsey. her father is William Richards. In 1884 she was married from 54 King and Queen Street Walworth but her parents are not at this address. Her birthplace could also be given as Walworth,Newington or Southwark. Many thanks, Tricia

Hi Sue, Don't know if you are still able to do Surrey lookups but if so I'd be grateful if you could lookup Richard Burns born 1853(?), (he was 28 in the 1881 census) in Vauxhall Surrey. Unfortunately that is all the info I have. I'd be grateful for anything you can tell me as he may hold the key to another problem I have. Many thanks Michaela
