Find Ancestors

Robin, Your help is much appreciated.A door has definitely been opened. Thank you Sandra

Betty I cannot search scans for the whole County on common surnames. I need a place, age etc etc. Where did they marry?Where are they in 1881? and what census am I to check.. Get back to me direct if you wish.

HI Robin,could you look up any names:cooper or doncaster on the census and bell and metcalfe,i have a thomas metcalfe and florence bell who married a metcalfe,the coopers names i have are muriel,violet,vinny,walter,freda and lesley,hope its not asking too much,thankyou in advance.

Thanks Robin - will give me something to chew at anyway. If my Elizabeth was born in Lenton it's possible she moved to Sneinton later in life I suppose and married from there. thank you. Much Appreciated. Jacqui

Jaqueline I do not think it is these two but they are the nearest dates in the City. Elizabeth Ann Bentley 10th May 1890 St Mathias Sneinton Eliza Elizabeth Ward 25th April 1886 St Luke Sneinton

Robin, You are a star! Would love details of Bertha and William. A new door has opened. Many thanks, Sandra

Hello Robin - do you think you could look up the marriage of JOHN KING and ELIZABETH ?? - both living in Lenton in 1881 (Holy Trinity) and probably still living there at the time of their marriage which was probably about 1886/1887. Many thanks - Jacqui

Hi, Thanks for the marriage look up. I think his family would be in the Mansfield area, although this is just what my auntie can remember, as i cannot find him or his family on any censuses. Thanks very much, Nicola

Robin Many thanks, you are a star. This is just what I have been looking for. Once again, many, many thanks. Suzanne

Hi Robin, You certainly have given me a lot to work on,thanks for all your time and effort. Steve

Ruth No trace of the Marriage and only one of the births as follows. Herbert Harold Henson born to Herbert Henson and Agnes Ann,20.3.1880, christened 23.5.1880 at Beeston. I have checked 1871 for Beeston with no trace. The Piece number for Chilwell is 3554 1871 and 2492 1861, both of which must come under Derbyshire, Long Eaton ? Marion sends her love.

Ian and Nicola P A Thomas Thorpe Married Mary Jane Slack at Stapleford 24th August 1884. I will need to know the area Thomas came from to do a census search as the Thorpes are spread all around the County and I cannot find a birth to match yet. Where was he in 1881?

Steven You will need to double check all this to make sure this is the right track! The spellings are as transcribed. Isaac Meats Married Mary Lever Nottm St Mary 21.6.1810 Children listed as born to an Isaac/Mary are Edwin 18.3.1819 John 17.6.1822,Thirza Ann 11.7.1825,Elizabeth Emma 9.5.1825?,George Leavers 5.5.1828,John Llewellyn 7.9.1831.

A marriage is recorded between Edwin Meats and Elisabeth Lane Nottm St Mary 3.10.1858 That should keep you busy for a while
