I'll let this one drop out of sight now then if people are going to post on Lynda's thread instead, no point having two threads the same.

my grandfather divorced my grandmother but cant find out when,there names were
Malcolm bonner morgan married Helen Tyler in 1892
in St Silas penton street
Cleckenwell London,also can,t find out when Helen died
Dutch

I have never noticed before, and often wondered how anyone could have had relatives removed from their trees.
The other day I went into my tree to add a few new people... and found that I too had relatives missing!
I had to first add them
(AGAIN) so that I could put my new finds in!
How could that happen?

I have not noticed that happen Deanna, but have to say I have not studied my tree closely lately on here. Perhaps I should !!!!


Joyce, are they together in the 1901?

Picking up on Glenda's query, have you got the deaths of Robert and Phoebe and if post 1881 have you found them on the 1881?

My subscription for emerald ancestors will run out soon so if anyone wants a look up let me know. ( Northern Ireland ) Please go on to the site first and use the search engine and if you see one you think is yours then I will extract further details...... Then it is up to you to send for the certificate which will give even more details.

I found my ancestors divorce on A2
You can search on there. Records are held at Kew, I couldn't get there so e mailed them for a quote, and they emailed back saying about £7 so I went for it. Will try and find the addy for you

http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/familyhistory/divorce/



wasn't A2 it documents online via the National archive site

Joyce

Want some news??????



They divorced in 1904. Malcolm divorced Helen.



See this page.



You won't see any information on there tho. Email National archives and they'll give you a quote for a copy of the divorce papers. I can't recall exactly what they charged me but defo under £10 am sure it was about £7.

If you need any help om me

Hi

I have had a success story recently with my great, great gran who was born illegitimate in Dec 1863 but whose mother Mary Ann Walder wed Thomas Roberts, a servant, just under 7 months later in July 1864. Thomas admitted fatherhood by baptising the child as his just after he wed the mother. I found that while the mother was pregnant, Thomas was still married and his wife had TB and died just 6 weeks before the birth, which explains everything.

Her death cert said "Phthisis, years certified". That would have given Thomas every chance to have an affair if his wife was laid up dying. They suddenly moved to London from Sussex after the birth.

Ben

Ben, well done on that success.

All
I have PMd Shelli to get her to change the post that is causing problems.
