mary hallam from the above post reminded me as i have do not think its the same one but i will get back to you with details

sally w <3

Hello Mary..I have the Ockbrook Parish records........and there is no MARY HALLAM baptised there.......neither are her parents..though I have a possible marriage at Selston between JOHN HALLAM and ELIZA DICKS in 1857..........and another at Ockbrook to ELIZA MELLORS..but that is 1872???????

The 1881 Census has Mary Hallam from Ockbrook working as a servant at Rolleston, Burton-on-Trent...and in 1871 aged 5 daughter of John and Eliza (John is a Railway Labourer aged 34 from Burneston...Eliza is from Nottingham)
There are two other children Emma 1868 and William 1870.

Mary could well have come from Ockbrook but not baptised there..hjer father John was from Burneston which is in Derby......

I'll have a little dig around for you.

Derek.

Hi Derek

If your offer is still available, would you do a search for a birth for me please?

I am looking for a birth of Mary Hallam 1865 +/- 1 year - father's name John Hallam, occupation Plate Layer (or maybe similar?). POB from census given as Ockbrook, Derbyshire.

Many thanks in advance. :-)

Mary

Hello again Geraldine.......I think my usefulness to you will be limited.....see my message below......becasue the Lewins had only a fleeting flirtation with Derbyshire. They were in fact a Cambridgeshire family..and they were in Camberwell London by 1898 because their second child Priscilla was born there.

ARTHUR LEWIN was born in Stapleford Cambridgeshire in 1874..one of at least five children of Joseph and Anne
In 1881 Joseph is an Ag.Lab in Caxton Cambs He was born Caxton 1822 and his wife born East Hatley 1832..

In 1891 ARTHUR is with his brother boarding in Croydon cum Clapton Cambs. at 67 Village Street..they ate AgLabs.

1901 Arthur has been in Derby long enough to have his first child..but noyt his econd..He is a Horsekeeper on the Trams......!! little bit of social history for you!!

Hope this is ok for you...........there is no other connection with Derbyshire..unless someone else in his family moved there before he did.....

All the best

Derek

Hello Geraldine......

PERCY ARTHUR LEWIN baptised Derby 22.01.1896..

son of Arthur and Alice Lewin.

By 1901 the family have moved to the St. Jude area of Peckham/Camberwell in London.

cannot come any further forward than perhaps the 1911 Census...but I have the resources to go back quite a lon
g way..if that's your pleasure..
Let me know..

Derek
