Kirsty Can find a marriage about the right time for a james Shinn and a Susan , but not Leggit. sorry jess

Thanks SO much Jess, the names you gave me are a help. You deserve a medal for all the help you give folks. Take care Ann x

Hi Jess This is all very new to me! Im trying to trace information on my Grd-mother FLOSSIE ELIZA BARTLETT born on 30th June, we are not sure of the year but think around the late 1880's or early 1890's in KINGSBRIDGE, DEVON. Her mothers name we underdstand was BELLE, it thought that BELLE had been married twice & the names ATKINS & WRIGHT have cropped up. Belle is thought to have had two sister's ELSIE (DURE) & MABLE (CLYNE). FLOSSIE married my Grd-father LEONARD CHARLES BOOTY, they lived in the Goodmayes, Ilford & Romford area's. Please help i am pulling my hair out with this one!! Jill

Hi Jess If possible could you find me the marriage between Susan Leggit born Norfolk about 1830(thats on 1881 census) and James Shinn born Ashill Norfolk 1830 about. I would love to confirm as well James Shinn parents as William Shinn and Mary Ann Ripper ( from Family search) I checked on 1837 and couldn't find them for 1865 - 1869 which is when i believe their first child may have been born, Many Thanks Kirsty :)

Claire- I cant actually find it again.Where was their first childs birth registered?

for jean Edward and Ellen Fowler (nee Driscoll) married in St. Stephens, Bermondsey in Oct. 1870. Both addresses shown as 18 Clarendon Street. Both shown as full age. Edward a costermonger (on later census a hawker as was Ellen). Edward Fowler born between July, 1844 and April, 1848 when he was baptised. (His parents did them in batches). *** Ellen Driscoll was born around 1846 Both in Southwark. I think they may have had 1/2 children by the time they married. Edward born about 1869 and John in 1870/1871.

Well they had they had Thomas in 1852 i think their first child was born 1848c so i guess before then anytime between earliest 1841 and then unless they got married after they had children. If you dont want to look it up i will understand i know i am being a big pain in the backside today

ann, cant find a single woodriff or woodruff called James born at all (can't find his birth reg either) all the woodriff's that show on 1901 Charles Woodriff abt 1877 Leeds, Yorkshire, England P;v Harrogate Yorkshire Edwin Woodriff abt 1849 Welsford, Wiltshire, England Boarder Burbage Wiltshire Francis Woodriff abt 1856 Leeds Patient Leeds Yorkshire Mary A Woodriff abt 1883 Darlington, Durham, England Inmate York Yorkshire William Woodriff abt 1881 Leeds, Yorkshire, England Boarder Leeds Yorkshire !

claire..GGGrrrrr when abouts did they marry - i'll guess kent , but when (pre 1871 I guess)

Hi Jess Could you please look up 1901 census..LEEDS, Yorkshire for a James Woodriff................born 1889. The address+ occupants would be VERY useful, if that is possible. Many thanks Ann

Jess you are going to hate me now. Im so sorry, A few weeks ago (dont think it was longer ago than that) you found a load of info for me and i cannot find it anywhere just wondered if it would be possible if you could look it up for me one more time im so sorry If you can it will be great you found the marriage between Thomas Simmons and Ann Medhurst they were both born around the 1820s im pretty sure Thomas was born 1821 and Ann 1824 in Kent Thomas Penshurst and Ann im not sure possibly Kemsing. Is there any chance you can find it again i really am so sorry Jess Thanks

Thanks for looking Jess its all a bit confusing with Mary isnt it ill keep looking and see what i come up with and if it matches anything you have found.

Hi Jess Thank you for the Napier information. James was in the Royal Artillery so was perhaps at the barracks or away somewhere. The 1881 census on LDS site shows them at the same address thanks for finding that they were next door.I will have to look up Jackson Street maybe it was Army houses Thanks Deborah
