	1861 census on FMP. RG09 Piece:4438 Folio:29 Page:13 RG09 Piece:4441 Folio:248 Page:2 I found a possible death in Rye but I don't think it's him as there is a Henry Bridger born in Rye bout the correct time. I'm just googling for newspapers for the Lambeth area to see if there was a report of his death. Von

Member Since: March 2009 Posts: 719 Send Message	Hi This post is from quite a while ago - I have obtained the Seaman's death certificate for Henry Charles Bridger - he was age 50 when he died (so born approx 1825) and was aboard the Adria when he unfortunately drowned. Just wanted to update everyone who helped and to say a big thanks again xx

Member Since: March 2009 Posts: 719 Send Message	Hi Still trying to trace my relative Henry Charles Bridger, I haven't got a subscription to Find My Past, this seems to indicate there may have been a will for him between 1875 and 1876 but am unable to view, I have a subscription to Ancestry and would be willing to look up anything on there as a swap if someone wouldn't mind looking on Find My Past for me. Many Thanks

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 38 Send Message	Joseph Banor born 1919 Prestwich Manchester, mother was Fanny Goldberg c 1887 registered birth was 123 Crescent Road, think its a workhouse poor law. Could also be Joseph Banov as this was common mistake with the r and v.
