Thanks Julie, I'll add a message to the Hobday board,and see if that get's any joy. Someone might have come across him even if he isn't their Hobday!

carole, i'm not too sure, i have subsciption to it, but dont know why i bother, havent really used it, doesnt give as much as you'd think, i guess this site spoils you, being able to contact members direct, i did have a thought though, ancesrty has message boards as well, have you tried there for info on joseph??? perhaps member will see it fingers crossed Julie

Julie is OWT only available to those who have delux package?

hiya carole, i had another look at OWT and i found another hobday, thomas, must be joes bro, this time, it has lots more info, I assume by this that the person in question is related to thomas, they even having 'living' rellies on there, no fore names just surnames, is for thomas hobday, 01 dec 1832 dob, have asquint cheers julie

Thanks for your interest Julie. I have several contacts on here but I have more than they do. One second cousin did tell me about Mary Bayliss, he sent an index but something didn't add up.That's why I asked who put it on OWT. It's a while since I looked at that so I'll have to go back there. I might e-mail my contacts to see if they have found a death for him but not added it to their tree yet. Thank you Carole

hiya carole, i can 'see' the O.W.T. info, but there is no contact details, i searched within One World Tree to find people interested in joseph but nothing, sorry, have you tried searching on here, for people with same names dates in their tree??? ie: search family trees on left of page ingreen column?? julie

Thank you Julie, I think he is Josephs twin brother. Josephs parents Joseph and Mary had several children and John was on the same census as Joseph in 1841 if I remember right. No wrong! Joseph who married Mary had a twin brother John! Their Joseph was b1827 and John 1836 So John who you just told me about could be John the elders son!

hiya carole, i'll have a look to see if i can find out, meanwhile i did find this, i know first name is wrong, but culd he have been called John? instead of joe? Name: John Hobday Birth Date: abt 1832 Year of Registration: 1887 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun Age at death: 55 District: Warwick County: Warwickshire Volume: 6d Page: 334 julie

Thank you Jean. That is too early 1811. He was born 1827 _ 1831 depends if census or marriage certificate is correct.

There's Joseph Hobley born 1811 died 1885 Mar qtr Warwick 6d 397

Do you know who put Joseph and Mary Bayliss on Ancestry one world tree please?

Thanks I had seen Joseph Hobday married Mary Bayliss before but not with Jane involved. So I didn't know if that was the correct surname for Josephs mother who was Mary!

hiya carole, the reason i asked was i found this on ancestry, did you know about this????? Name: Joseph Hobday Birth: 11 Feb 1827 - Stretton On Dunsmore, Warwickshire, England Parents: Joseph Hobday, Mary Bayliss Spouse: Jane is on ancestrys one world tree julie

I have his marriage cert. I know he was a carpenter as was his father and his oldest son. So I would be surprised if he suddenly changed his job to become a needle hardener as was on wrong death cert.

Hi the death cert was wrong as name of his widow was Sarah if I remember correctly, and his occupation was wrong.

Hi I'm a bit slow on here! Looked in 1837 on line. I have Acestry.co.uk so looked on full index. Looked for a burial on familyhistory on line, in Warwickshire and Lincolnshire.

hiya carole, do you have any other details on your gg grandad?? can i ask why was the death cert the wrong one? do you have a birth cert or christening record for him? if he born in 1831 you wouldnt geta cert Duh!!( me taling to myself) julie

This is spooky,i nearly asked the question just as Reggie asked. Glen

Carole You haven't answered the questions about where you have looked............. Reg

Glen and Reggie thanks for reply, yes I checked full index Carole
