Find Living Relatives

Looking for descendants of William Foster and Eliza Lukins, originally from Wells, Somerset and moved to Kingston-upon-Thames, Surrey sometime between 1853 and 1857; William was a Brushmaker. I think some of the family may still be in the Kingston area but have been unable to find them. I know of some of their son Charles’s descendants but have been unable to trace those of Henry (who I believe married a Mary Ann Heather). Is there anyone out there who has any information?

Can look some up for you no doubt.

Hang on a bit.

How do you know that they had any children?

Have you looked to see if anyone else on here has any of your family in their trees?

Have you found Henry and Mary Ann in the censuses?

I have details of all their children and am in touch with family who have details of Charles Foster's descendants. I have found Henry Foster and his wife, Mary Ann, on the 1911 census, along with their children, but have been unable to get any further.

Use freebmd to look for info

That is all that anyone else would do...................

When and where was Henry born........when do you think he married?

Shirley???????

Sorry - haven't been able to do much lately as been so busy. Thank you for the replies.

I have Henrys children and I'm sure Ada was married to William Dawes (and I think I have their children). However, I am interested to know if any of the Foster descendants are still living in the area. I know an aunt of mine talked of the Dawes family and I think she and my father might have had contact with them when I was small but I have been unable to find any trace. I thought it just possible that someone on Genes Reunited might have information.

Have you looked in 'search all trees'? Only a member actively researching the family would have info...........

Or the phone book?
