Find Ancestors

Hi Ann Still not found William or Emily yet haven't even come across anyone with the same surname,but what I was wondering as I have come across a few although no Emily,Could her surname also be spelt Hodgson. Chris

Chris Thanks, you are so good for looking this up for me. Emily was 18 in May according her marriage lines but according to my other research she was just 16 in 1871.Her father was called John Hodson. I have found the family in 1881 so will look it up. I wonder where William was, he came from Norfolk according to later census info. He is pretty consistant about that and his age ( 29 on the 1881) Thanks again Ann

Hi Ann Do you know how old Emily was? was she a lot older than Thomas.I have looked in Church Street with no sign of Thomas or Emily but there was an Emily Hudson unmarried near by but she was a lot older then Thomas. Chris

Hi Chris Sorry I had not realised it was not name indexed. He married from Church street Sheffield on the 19th May 1872.But my Grandad was born Masborough. Address Court 4, 1 Albert Street Kimberworth Rotherham, in April 1873. That is as much as I have. Thanks Ann

Hello Chris Could you please do me a look up for Robert Hobson age 23 and his wife Lydia Hobson also 23 they are living in Denaby, York, on the 1881 census ,Robert was born in West Hallam,Derbyshire and lydia was born in Ilkeston, Derbyshire . Thanks Debbie

Hi Chris, You have helped me out before and here I am asking for your help again. I am after information on the Walkers from Dewbury. Richard Walker (father) Phoebe (Mother) Elizabeth Sykes (daughter) 1826 Maria born 1825 Hester Sykes born 1823 Joshua 1821 Joseph Robinson Walker 1819 Mary Jane 1817 Robert 1815 John Thompson Walker 1814 All the children were born in Dewsbury and I would think that the girls got married. We will be glad of any info. Thanks Gail

Hi Ann Sorry I haven't got back to you.Where would be the best place for me to look for William. Rotherham or Sheffield.I have started to look in Rotherham but if you think Sheffield a better bet please let me know.Please bear in mind there is no name index so will be searching page by page,so could take a while Chris

Hi Chris I asked you before Christmas if you could find a William Hanton in 1871. He married Emily Hodson in 1872 in Sheffield so I am hoping he was in Yorkshire at the time. They settled in Rotherham after the marriage. His father on the marriage cert was Thomas Hanton, occ. farmer. I am wondering if he is in Yorkshire as well. I need details of his family. Many thanks and a good New Year to you. Regards Ann

Hi, thanks for getting back to me. Thomas is proving to be a real pain. Found his wife Rebecca on 71 census still at home with parents so god knows where he was. thanks again regards Debbie

Hi Val Already had a look for Stephen's Terrace and Strickland Street but couldn't find them..Thomas isn't at Campbell Terrace or Hessle road either.So what I'm doing at the moment is looking in that area just in case he hasn't moved far.Also looking for Frederick Muller and John Leonard Revill at the same time so keep your fingers crossed I find them this time. Hope to be in touch soon Chris

Thanks for that Chris, maybe the house I was looking for was either vacant or not built in 1871. Could I ask for another house lookup please? Could you tell me who was living at 23 Back Lane, Leeds in 1871.I believe that it was in the Quarry Hill district. Thanks again for your time. Kind regards. Martin.

Hi Martin No one at 6,Plane street. but at 6,Little plane Street,there was Mary Drulan Head widow age looked like 50, Hawker born Ireland Elizabeth Drulan,Dau age 14 Mill Hand,born leeds Margaret Haley Lodger age 20 Washerwoman born Ireland Chris

Hi Chris, any chance that you could find out for me who was living at 6 Plane Street, Leeds in 1871 ? The house was in either the city centre or Quarry Hill area. Thanks for your time. Kind regards. Martin

Hi Michael There isn't a name list for the 1871 census but I am looking in the Hull area for someone else, so will keep a look out for any Dannatt's for you Chris
