Find Ancestors

Lynda , thank you very much , I didn't know about the older children or James snr's birthplace . Mary Ann was still alive 1871 ( died 1883 ) so don't know where she is , also missing my g grandfather William aged 14 in 1881 census ? I suppose I have to start looking in Bath now . Hilary

Hi Lynda 62 latymer rd London Henry Barton born st georges as per 1881 census thanks ann

Hi Ann/Lynda, There's a Latimer Road in Notting Hill if that helps - registers in Kensington. Rick.

Hi Lynda in the 1881 comes up as 62 LATYMER RD could be hammersmith or kensington in the 1891 and 1901 they were at 65 COBBOLD PARISH OF HAMMERSMITH sorry no more to go on thanks ann

Ann/Lynda, Sorry to butt in again, but a lot of my family lived in and around Latimer Road. I'm sure it registers in Kensington and there is (or was) also a Latymer House in the road. It was definitely called Latimer Road by 1862. Hope this helps, Rick.

Well-remembered Lynda ! That was actually Walmer Road, but they are both within a stone's throw of the Westway. Rick.

sorry only comes up as 62 latymer rd seem to be a lot of houses in the st and lots of people in them, next sts seems to be mortimer and st , just found a latymer rd london n9 ann

thanks Lynda for your help Ann

Lynda I haven't an address other than St Pancras and 2 names: MILSTED: Mother: Harriet b 1820 Banbury Oxfordshire Son : John Henry b 1862 St Pancras London If this is too little to go on please don't worry about a look up. Just wanted to give it a go : ) Much Happiness Debi

Hi Lynda Does the London 1871 cover Battersea? If so, can you look up George & Sarah Roper, who were at 11 Latchmere Rd, Battersea in 1881. In 1871, the details should be: George Roper, 30, painter, Norwich Sarah Roper, wife, 31, Norwich Sarah Roper, daughter, 7, Norwich Richard Roper, son, 5, Norwich Many thanks, Richard

Lynda - thanks anyway for trying. The Ropers were definitely in London by 1875, but I just realised that the child born that year was born in Paddington, not Battersea (the first ref I have for them being in Battersea was in 1881 census). If by chance they pop up in the names index for Paddington area in 1871, would be most interested, otherwise I'll have to get the birth cert for the child born in 1875 & hope that it has an address (in which case, I'll bug you again!). Could you also possibly check another couple of Battersea addresses: 45 Tugela Rd - looking for Richards family, and 23 Rollo St - looking for Phillips. Regards, Richard

HI Lynda If you are able to search just on names, could you please look for George Searles or Searls and his wife who is either Eliza M or Mary Ann. Unfortunately we have no idea where they could be living. Thanks, Graham

Hi Linda, Could you look up Joseph Francis Williams and Lucy Hannah Barrett married 27/8/1871 Parish Church in the Parish of Christ Church, Southwark in the County of Surrey. Residence: 8 Charles Street, Blackfriars Road (for both of them). Any info on them or relatives appreciated Thanks Sam(on Martins PC)

Thanks Linda - don't think they are related. They lived in Broadwall after that in the next year, so maybe they had already moved when the census was taken. Sam

Hi Lynda I don't think that the "Philpos" family in Rollo St is the Phillips that I'm looking for. My Phillips family were at that address by 1881, but in 1856 they were at 31 Great Wild St, South St Giles - could you possibly check that address too in 1871 (or even 1861)? Looking for head George, wife Elizabeth, son Frederick. Tugela Rd is from the 1881 transcription - probably it's been mistranscribed. Will check the image of the page and see if I can work out what it should be. Thanks once again, Richard

thank you im sure this is her my great grandmother thankyou and yes she was born in ireland

Lynda - Wonderful! Many thanks once again, that was a lot of useful information. Regards, Richard in Oz

Hi Lynda Following the Success of actually finding one of my Ringrow's last night, could you possibly lookup one more address for me please. I have this address off a birth certificate for a William Ringrow born November 1870. The address is 3 Westover Street, Mile End. I have actually found it on an old map now and is quite near St Dunstans so will probably come under Stepney. It runs parallel with Howard St and Westover Street then meets up with Ocean Street. Finger Crossed!!! Many Thanks Sharon

Hi Lynda You are a Star!!! Many thanks again, if there is anything you ever need looking up in Essex let me know and i will be more than happy to do it. I go to the Essex Record Office when i have gathered enough info on the hubby's family, I have actually done some lookups for other people today while i was there. I am going to order a birth certificate from 1861 tomorrow and hopefully will provide me with an address to search for John's brother. Many Many Thanks Lynda Sharon

Hi Please could you find any information on William Edgar Potter who was a carpenter. I know he was from London and he certainly had one son in 1878 but that is it.
