Hi Chris, could you help me out ? I am looking for James Hart and his son William Hart. I dont know much about James but I do know that William would have been 7 or 8 years old in 1871. William was born and lived in Leeds and it`s possible that James was born in Ireland. I`m not sure which part of Leeds they lived in but it could be the Quarry Hill or Bank area, the only address I have for them is Plane Street in 1880. If you could give me any info on this family I would be very grateful. Also, if it`s not too much hassle, could you look for Elizabeth Leonard age 5 or 6 in 1871 living in Leeds. Again I dont know too much about her though she lived in Back Lane in 1880 so she may have been at this address in 1871. Any info would be welcome. Kind regards. Martin.

Hi, Thanks for that. I do recognise some of the names from other bits and pieces I have researched. If you find any others, I will be pleased to hear from you. Regards Pauline

Hi Martin Looked in the areas you mentioned.Only found one James Hart from Ireland with his family but he didn't have a son called William. Also found one Elizabeth Leonard with her family but she is a little bit older than the one you are looking for.They are living at 40,Little Off Street,Which was next to Back Lane Robert Leonard Head age 40 Caroline, Wife age 39 Robert, Son age 14 Elizabeth,Dau age 8 Amelia, Dau age 4mo Sorry I couldn't make out where they came from If you think this is your family send me an e-mail and I will send you a copy of the page Chris

hi chris i'd like to thank you very much for that information,what would we do without the net and this site and freinds like you thanks again . chris australia

Thanks Chris, not sure if this is my lot but it gives me something to work on at least. Cheers. Martin.

Hi Chris, When you have a spare moment could you please do a look up for me? I'm interested in locating Mary Hannah Firth b1833 & John Firth b1829 from the Northowram, Halifax area. Many thanks, Donna

Hi Chris When you have time I would appreciate a look up for a family of Eastwood living in Darton probably Mapplewell. There should be a widow Ann, possibly living with her brother William Chappell and children Harriet George and I believe two others. Many thanks for your time.

Hi Robin There was a few Chappell family's in the area, most of them nail makers, but I couldn't find a William.I did wonder if this was your Ann remarried John Hunter, Head age 39 born Darton. Nail Maker Ann Hunter, Wife age 41 born Darton George A, Eastwood Son age 19 born Whitwood W.Herbert Eastwood ,Son age 14 born Whitwood Thomas Eastwood ,Son age 11 born Whitwood Edith Hunter, Dau age 7 born Darton G????? Hunter, Dau age 5 born Darton Mary Hunter, Dau age 2 born Darton Let me know if you want a copy of the page Chris

Hi Donna I've had a look in the Northowram area and I'm affraid I couldn't find John and Mary Hannah Firth Sorry Chris

Hi Chris, Thanks for looking anyway. I know that Mary Hannah Firth gave birth to Thomas Moore Firth at 5, Sanderson Street, Northowram in September 1971. On his birth cert there is no mention of his father although his mum (nee Taylor) was married to John Firth. I was hoping to find Mary & John both together during the census and, therefore, verify him as the father. Afterall, Thomas was given his name. Regards, Donna.

Hi Donna I have now Found them Living 5,Sanderson Street Mary H Firth Head Widow age 37 Ann Firth Dau age 17 Mary Firth Dau age 16 Ellen Firth Dau age 15 June or Jane Firth Dau age 13 Emma Firth Dau age 4 Please e-mail me if you would like a copy of the page Chris

Hi Janet I've had a look in the Pudsey area put I'm affraid I couldn't see them.I couldn't Look in the Calverley area as for some reason it isn't on the cd,although I does mention it in the list of place names. Sorry I wasn't able to help you this time Chris

Hi Val Yes Hull is in the census but it is 2cds worth and will take me some time to look through,but if you don't mind waiting a while I will gladly look for you Chris

No Problem Val It will also give me another chance to look for your John Revell in that area Chris

A message for Chris It would be wonderful if you could find a William Hanton for me. In 1871 he would be 19 and born Norwich. He is in Rotherham in 1881 but need details of his family before this time.I am not sure where in Yorkshire he might be. If anybody has the 1861 census for Yorkshire I also need info from that census as well on same person. A happy Christmas to You and thanks. Ann

Hi Chris, please could I add another 1871 request? Barker, Amelia(sometimes Emily) b 1801-5 in Middlesex, living in the Duke St/Bard St area of Sheffield (which is just west of Commercial st, n of Sheaf st). I would like to know birthplace & whether her Husband George is still alive & whether any children are with her. Sheffield is a large area, and I understand this may not be possible. For ANN WIGHTMORE, you can buy the index for a particular surname on the 1861 Sheff&Rotherham census cheaply from Sheffield FHS online. I have several but not for "H" unfortunately. Merry Christmas to all, Marian
