Hi , You kindly found some information for me on a samuel stevens in Chelmsford, but I have just got the dreaded wedding certificate that says his father was Henry Stevens and not Robert Stevens. I know this is a bit of a cheek but would you be able to see if maybe Henry Stevens is on the census. I am wondering if there was an military base near Chelmsford and if he was there. On Samuels wedding certificate it says Henry was a veterinary surgeon. Thanks for all your help

Hi Robyn Do you have an index for ESSEX? If so I'd be grateful if you could look for a CHARLES FLEWERS/FLOWERS/FLUERS/FLUWERS aged about 10. I have found two possible candidates in London in 1851, one was born Epping and the other in Grays. Many thanks Lyla

jeremiah land The closest i have is a 50 year old ag lab sarah 50 sarah ann 20 pulham st mary the virgin area of suffolk

Hi Robyne, I feel a bit bad about asking this as I already made a request elsewhere with no real result. Hope you don't mind. I'm looking for GILLATT ARRAND aged about 12 born in East Butterwick, Lincs. I think he would be with his mother Ann Arrand (aged about 40), maybe still in East Butterwick. His mother's maiden name was Gillatt (Gillott) and I think there may be other Gillatts in East Butterwick. If he's on the index Gillatt Arrand should be easy to find - I'm pretty sure there was no-one else with that name then!! Thank you Anne

George Shattock 60 Carpenter sarah 52 Robert 21 Ag Lab john 20 ag lab ann 11 Thomas Shattock 20 ag lab no other household members

Charles Clarke - There are 31 Charles Clarkes in the Suffolk area of the similar age. None are Wiston so i cant narrow it down by doing that. (19 between 5-10) If you manage to get any more info please give me a shout

john gagen - There are 2 in Norfolk with the right age. this one has a wife charlotte but the children are different. John 45 Farmer Charlotte 40 Elizabeth 22 george 20 jane 16 I have searched Daniel and he isnt there at all.

William March - There are several William's of all ages. all the adults seemed to be Ag Labs and the childrens dads werent Cabinet makers. If you have any kind of info about parishes that might help narrow it down

Apologies for the delay again Richard White - There are 4 Richard Whites of the right age in Derby but none in the specific area. The areas i have are Calver, Five Walls, Brailsford and Hazleford. there are a couple on their own and a couple with parents. Def none with mary so they werent married by that time

Thankyou very much.

Robyne Thank you for your offer. I would be most grateful for your help. I'm looking for George Shattock born c 1781 Norton Fitzwarren Somerset and Thomas Shattock c 1820 Norton Fitzwarren Somerset. John

Hi Robyne. That's great, thank you very much for your help. Nicky

I would appreciate it if you could look up GAGENs in Norfolk In particular - John gagen born 1795 - birthplace Norfolk spouse Charlotte Gagen 0 born 1801 - born Norfolk or Ireland - information keeps changing on where she was born. children include John bradshaw Gagen - born 1827 and Daniel Gagen - born 1836 both children were born in Norfolk. Any additional information that may be available would be helpful. When you have the time, if you find any other Gagen's in the Norfolk area, could you please include the information as they may all be related Thank you Penny

Hi Robyne, Thanks for the offer. I would be greatful for any info on a William March from Gloustershire. He was possibly a cabinetmaker. This is the only info I have to date on this person. I am trying to track his son down Frederick March born 1855 Bristol. Thanks Pete.

Thanks very much Robyne, Rick.

Have you looked for their marriage on Ancestry? I sent you a PM about a Henry Clark marrying a Jane in 1840, but that marriage was in Middlesex so probably isnt the right one

Robyne, The piece of paper is nearly falling to bits, it's so old. Some bits of it tie up, some bits are slightly confused. Henry Clark RN married Harriott Jessie Godden - I have marriage details so that is correct. Apparently, this couple had 2 sons George Godden and Henry. It is this Henry that she states married Jane Wingf (writing goes off end of page :-/ ) She notes that this couple had 3 sons, Bertie, Charles and ..... and also Flora and Jessie. 1861 census agress most of this - there is Harriott Jessie, Florence and also Stephen. I have assumed that maybe the other 2 sons had left home. I have tried a fuzzy WINGF* search but am still drawing a blank. Next stage send for Harriott Jessie birth cert, but have spent far too much on this already this month! Any other ideas? Sally

Thanks Robyne I don't have any clue about Mary Hemming's mom or family but at least i know they are in Stourbridge then Jayne

HI Sally I have had a good look and cant find anything that is similar to Jane Wingfield. Do you have a scanner? If so you can always email it over to me and i will take a look Robyne
