Find Living Relatives

Hello, I'm trying to find any living descendants of Edward Lacey b1859 Newark and Clara Adelaide Burch b1859 Ipswich.

They had 7 children :- Minna, Edward, Charles, Bertie (lost in Titanic disaster) Dorothy, Evelyn and May Clara.

Family lived in Southampton area in Hampshire.

I have what I believe are photographs of some of the family and would like to return them to the family.
They came to me via Dorothy who was my aunts mother-in-law.

Here's hoping! Thank you.

Have you looked to see if anyone has any of the parents or children in their trees on here, and then tried to make contact with the tree owner?

Yes I have but had either no luck or no response.

Thanks to everyone who've shared information. I do have the majority of the information on the immediate family and am working my way towards an actual relative. If all else fails I'll probably just contact a family history society in Southampton or there about to see if they can help.
In the meantime I'll just keep plodding along.

If you alter your heading to include 'Edward Lacey, 1859, Newark' then it should be picked up if anyone does a google search. That way people looking for him and his family may come across your posting on here and try to contact you directly - so keep your contact details on genes up-to-date.

May Clara appears to have married Frederick Stanley Hughes (from wills and administration on national probate for Clara Lacey)

Have you managed to trace their deaths and/or children?

May Clara dies in 1985 (Shirley, Southampton) - similarly look for wills etc

Evelyn was actually Evelyn Victoria?

Births Sep 1897
Lacey Evelyn Victoria S. Stoneham 2c 94

Is this Minna's birth?

Births Jun 1886
LACEY Minna Elizabeth Colchester 4a 513

Died unmarried?
Deaths Jun 1926
Lacey Minia E 39 Southampton 2c 64

I've altered the heading as suggested.

Yes its Evelyn Victoria.

I have May and Frederick Stanley Hughes, her probate but not his, although there's a 1978 death in Hampshire that may be his.

No I haven't found any children so far.

Thanks to all for you help so far.

:-)

Births Jun 1892 (>99%)

Lacey Bertie William Colchester 4a 596

if may clara married 1946 she would have been 44yrs old so perhaps had no children

Yes it looks like there were no children.
Thanks again folks, I'll keep on trying though.

I have now found Charles in the 1939 census.
He was married to Edith Street at the time and living with his parents, Edward and Clara.
No sign of children still.
Frustrating.

Would someone kindly do a census look-up for me.

I'm looking for Edward Lacey born 1859 in Newark Notts., hopefully with a sister who may be Laura? Elizabeth Lacey born in 1854. So the 1861 and/or 1871 would be great.

thanks

Do you have his Father's name from Edward's wedding certificate, and have you definitely identified his birth?
