Hi John, there is this one for Laura,

Laura Maria Cummings 1908 Apr-May-Jun Chipping Norton Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire

James Henry Jarvis 1908 Apr-May-Jun Chipping Norton Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire

William George Keen 1908 Apr-May-Jun Chipping Norton Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire

Lilian Gertrude Patrick 1908 Apr-May-Jun Chipping Norton Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire

And this one for Mary, but it doesn't list a husband,

Mary Jane Cummings 1910 Apr-May-Jun Chipping Norton Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire

Could this be them?

Thanks

Vicky

Hi Vicky, thanks for your reply, ages on marriage cert are 24yrs for Thomas and 22 yrs for Elizabeth.

I think his birth would be Stockton or Durham, I have never been able to pin point it, his father is William Prest labourer and the witness's on Thomas's marriage cert are Jane prest and William Ayre, I think she is his sister, she marries William Ayre in june of 1900, I found them on the census, somebody got in touch and told me Jane married 6 times, but they havn't been back in touch.

Elizabeth Thompson's father was John Thompson, hope some of this is a help.

Thanks again Vicky

Thanks
John

Hi Sandra, can you give me approx ages and where born for Thomas and Elizabeth? I'll try different combinations to see if I can find them.

Thanks,

Vicky

Hi Vicky, my GGF Thomas Prest married Elizabeth Thompson in Feb 1900 in Middlesbrough.

Elizabeth had a child in 3rd qtr 1898 in Stockton Durham named

Ethel Gertrude Roberts Thompson

I cannot find any of them on the 1901 census.

I did find a Elizabeth Thompson with a Ethel Thompson, but Elizabeth was 10 yrs older than the one I want, plus she should have been using her married name, shouldnt she ???.

Any help would be much appreciated

Hi again Susan, here are the possibilities:

John Pickersgill 1919 Oct-Nov-Dec Gill Bolton Greater Manchester, Lancashire

Parents mrriage:

William E Pickersgill 1918 Jul-Aug-Sep Gill Bolton Greater Manchester, Lancashire
Elizabeth A Gill 1918 Jul-Aug-Sep Pickersgill Bolton Greater Manchester, Lancashire

This is the only John Pickersgill I could find, with the father definitely William.

Sorry I couldn't help more,

Vicky

Hi Joanne,

Here's what I could find. Is this Rose born 1904?

Rose Clayton 1904 Oct-Nov-Dec Chorlton Lancashire

There is also this birth which is in the same place as the below marriage:

Rose Clayton 1907 Oct-Nov-Dec Barton Upon Irwell (1850-1934) Lancashire


Her marriage:

Rose Clayton 1925 Oct-Nov-Dec Abraham Barton Upon Irwell (1850-1934) Lancashire

Her sister?

Amelia Clayton 1906 Jan-Feb-Mar Barton Upon Irwell (1850-1934) Lancashire

Rose's child?

Abraham Frederick T Clayton Barton I. 8c 882

I would suggest either getting her marriage cert which should state her Father's name, or her birth cert if you are sure it is her to see what both parents are called.

Sorry I couldn't help further,

Vicky

Hi Victoria,
John McCarthy/Mc Carthy was born in Horseleydown, surrey (now Southwark) in 1879. Hope this helps. Many Thanks Angie

Hello Victoria!

I am interested in the British Army WW1 Pensions.

Could you please tell me if there is any information on Albert George Fuller born c. 1897 in Felsted, Essex?

He was in WW1 and was gassed, sadly he died in 1926. He was my maternal grandfather.

He appears on the 1901 Census age 4.

I am also looking for his marriage to Annie Bentley in about 1920 in the Dunmow or Thaxted area of Essex.

With very best wishes

Norman

Hi Susan,

Don’t worry, I’ll cross reference the John Pickersgill’s born around 1918 with marriages of William Pickersgill to see if I can find a marriage with the same mother’s maiden name.

I’ll have a look this evening for you.

Vicky

Hi Victoria
Just wondering if you could help me please.
Im looking for my Grandmothers ancestors :

My mum Marjorie Rose Marsden nee Wilkins b 23 June 1950
Her mum Marjorie Rose Abraham b 1923 Eccles Salford Married Norman Arthur Wilkins
Her mum Rose Clayton b 1904 married John Abraham
I cant find Rose Claytons mother but i do know that she died in childbirth when having twins along with the second twin & think the surviving twin was Annie & some of her siblings were Amelia, Arthur & Rose.

Any info of any generations mentioned would be very much appreciated......

Hi Donna, could these be the sister's?

Gwendoline Thomas 1909 Jul-Aug-Sep Middlesbrough (1875-1968) Yorkshire - North Riding

Mabel Thomas 1911 Jul-Aug-Sep Holton Middlesbrough (1875-1968) Yorkshire - North Riding

I have found thi marriage between a Pollie Holton and a Evan Thomas:

Pollie Holton 1909 Jan-Feb-Mar Middlesbrough (1875-1968) Yorkshire - North Riding

Evan Thomas 1909 Jan-Feb-Mar Middlesbrough (1875-1968) Yorkshire - North Riding

Maybe Frances was known as Pollie or vice versa? I can not find a Polly/Pollie of Frances on 1901 census or birth regs.

Sorry I couldn't be more help,

Vicky

Dear Victoria, Many thanks for your kind offer I am looking for a Walter White born1876 in Old Windsor His father was named William I have had no joy in any leads so far Thank you again Jane

Hi Vicky

I hope you don't mind me asking if you could help me too. I need help trying to find out any information about my G Grandmother Frances Holton. My Nan, Louise Holton, was born 15.12.1906 but there is no mention of a father on the certificate and I can't seem to find Frances on any census'. They lived in Durham, Stockton on Tees i believe. There may also be two half sisters of Louise called Mabel and Gwen. Many, many thanks if you find anything for me....
Donna :o)
