Hi Jeanette I have sent you an E-mail. I hope it helps Good Luck Chris

Hi,Chris, can you look up Thomas Philip Schofield b 28 sep 1867 Todmorden. I know nothing else except that. He emigrated to New Zealand but I dont know if he went alone or with his parents so some more names would be very useful. Thank you Gloria

Hi Debbie H I Have looked in Denaby and I have found Lydia age 23 but her husband was called William also 23 a coal miner from West Hallam, they had no children but thay did have lodgers. Charles Pritcher age 18 coal miner his wife Mary age 16 and there son John age 1 week Chris. Hi Ann Not had any luck yet finding William and Emily but I haven't finished looking yet Chris

Hi Debbie C I would love to help you find Annie but I need a little bit more info if possible like a place in Yorkshire to start looking. This census hasn't got a name index and as there is 31 cd to search it would take me ages.The only thing I can do in the mean time is keep an eye out for her while I'm doing other look-ups. I hope you understand,Sorry I can't be more helpful.Hopefully someone else can be Chris

Hi Louise I have only found you this family so far. David Merritt Head age 76, Labourer, born Preston Sarah Merritt Wife,age 74 Laundress born Bishop Burton Elizabeth Merritt Dau age 49, Laundress ,born Beverley Hope this is your family Chris

Does anyone have information about the Strong Family, they lived near or in Rotherham. I've got to Francis William Strong circa 1870's an Iron Moulder. I've just started so he is as far back as I've got. Mike

Hi Chris I fully understand and thank you. I am afraid I have no more info other than that so please don't worry I will keep digging till I find something more concrete to work with. Much Happiness Debi : )

hi janet thanks for looking for me! Yeah they are my relatives! If you get a chance can u look for this lady for me, Ellen Jane Atkinson. She married Edwin Mitchell Merritt (the grandson that i thought may be living with David and Sarah) in 1875. I believe her father and mother went under the name of Botterill (thomas and Precilla) Thanks once again lou x

Hi Chris, If you are still doing these lookups can I ask about my husband's GG Grandmother? Ellen LONSDALE born Dishforth, Yorks and would be about 14 in 1871. By 1881 census she had married (surname Pease) and was living in Tower Street, Richmond, Yorks with two children. If you find anyone likely I'd love to know who her parents and siblings were. Thanks, Linda

Hello Chris Thankyou for looking it up for me ,I think its the right family because his name was Robert William and a few times now he as gone by William and not Robert Thanks again Debbie

Hi Sue I've had a look in Batley and the only other Hepplestones I have found so far not counting Joseph are- Robert and Lydia Hepplestone with their family,they do have a daughter called Mary but she is only 7 John and Ellan Hepplestone with their family they also have a daughter called Mary but she is aged 17. Good Luck Chris

Hi Linda I have also had a look in Dishford and I'm sorry to tell you I couldn't find Ellen Lonsdale Good luck Chris

Hi To everyone I do look-ups for. Just because I can't find your ancestors dosen't mean they aren't there.There is a number of reasons I can't find them 1/ I can't read the writing 2/ The writing is that bad the World and his Wife can't read the writing 3/ I have missed them If the latter is the case I am very sorry, please accept my appologises. Good luck to you all in you search's Chris

No problem. Thank you very much for looking for me. Linda

Hello Chris, wonder if you could please look up a John Thomas Halliwell & a Andrew Wild both of yorkshire I think. thanks Lesley

am trying to find Dennis and Elizabeth Griffin in Middlesbrough in 1871 with their children John 11yrs, Thomas 8yrs , Edward 3yrs. Dennis was born in Ireland while his wife came from Leeds. Hope someone can help George

Hi, could you look for Hiram Pickles and wife Martha possibly Heptonstall/Halifax area? Thank you Gloria

many thanks chris, will have another dig about for my hepplestones ! if you are doing any searches in the heckmondwike area, please look out for a george lamb [16] his sister eliza [1] and knowing my lot a multitude of names in between them, think [!] parents are john [a farmer] and i think his mum is ellena. xx sue

Hi again Chris You tried to find someone for me last November without success. Could I ask you for another look up if you're still willing ? On the 1881 I have Agnes Darling White age 50 born Berwick on Tweed. She is a widow living with her sons Matthew age 15, Christopher age 26 & Agnes aged 8. The family are living in Kingston on Hull. I know her late husbands name was also Matthew but have nothing further on him. Finding out his age and place of birth would be a great help. Could you look for them in the district of Pickering where I think they were still living in 1871. Many thanks Terry on the Rock

Hi Terence I'm afraid I'm still having no luck finding your ancestors I've looked in the Pickering area for your White family with no success. I am doing a look-up in the Hull area for someone else, so will keep an eye out for them for you just in case they are there already. Chris
