Hi there. I am at the moment trying to trace this link in the family. Lady callled Eva Ada Casbolt, nee Bartlett born in Wickford in 1903. Her mother was Elizabeth Bartlett, married to a James. Elizabeths maiden name was Smith. Her mother maiden name was Michelinburg, Michleberg, something like this (not sure how it is spelled. I cannot get a grip on where to start. Can anyone throw me a lifeline?

Since Wickford is Ireland, I'm assuming, you may drown before any of us can help! ;)

Can you tell us why you're looking for her -- what is your connection, what do you know for absolute sure? The name/marriage of a child of hers maybe?

That's where you have to start: with what you know for sure. We might be able to help figure out how to go back from there!

Aha. A fact:

Ok Wickford in Essex, uk. My husbands family. I have spoken tonight to his aunt who told me that her mother was Eva, and Evas mother was German but the name is Michleburg. This was her maiden name.

Yes June, this is correct. I have this info. Eva was the oldest resident in Wickford when she died. A lovely lady. I am just wanting to put together the tree on this side. The Bartletts all came from Wickford/Dagenham areas. It is this German lady I want to trace. Elizabeth Bartlet had a sister called Mariah. So Smith is the maiden name. I am looking at the mo but nothing on it.

This looks like Eva in 1911:

BARTLETT EVA 1903 8 Billericay Essex

and the rest of her household:

BARTLETT JUR 1862 49 Billericay Essex
BARTLETT ELIZA 1867 44 Billericay Essex
BARTLETT ELIZABETH 1898 13 Billericay Essex
BARTLETT JAMES 1896 15 Billericay Essex

JUR, hm. Maybe "Jas"?

Teresa - you had that info. No one else did. For someone to try to assist in a search, we need all the info. Like the dates of birth, family members' names, etc. If you don't offer it, we have to go looking for it.

Thanks ladies. I have this info on the Bartletts already. With names of Moses and Herbert which I got tonight, they were the easy ones. Any ideas on the German lady??

Teresa, can you sort it out a bit?

You started by saying:

[Eva's] mother was Elizabeth Bartlett, married to a James.
Elizabeths maiden name was Smith.
Her mother maiden name was Michelinburg, Michleberg,

but now you have said:

Evas mother was German but the name is Michleburg.
This was her maiden name.


That's a contradiction.

Does it go like this?

Ms. Michelburg (sp) married Smith
was the mother of
Elizabeth Smith married Bartlett
was the mother of
Eva Ada Bartlett

?

Sorry Jayne. Yes that is correct. Eva Bartlett, maiden name, was daughter of Elizabeth Smith, maiden name. Elizabeths mother was Michelburg, maiden name.
Confusing myself.

Problem is ... there's no marriage in Essex of James Bartlett + Elizabeth Smith.

Do you have that info at all?

The dates I have on Eva are: born in Jan 1903 in Wickford
Elizabeth was 34 on 1901 census.
So goong back, she was born around 1868ish, so her mother would surely show on a census around 1870??
Wickford is also sometimes coming under Billericay in Essex, for registrations in that area

The first children of Elizabeth were born in 1890. There were James, Richard Lizzy and Eva was the youngest. I am positive they would have been married in Wickford

Well, I don't see her on the 1871! It's not that I hadn't looked ...

maybe marriage but elizabeth is not on the list
