Find Ancestors

I don't think Valentine Lang is the man you are looking for. There is a Valentine Lang on the 1891 census living with his wife Amelia and their children. His occupation in 1901 and 1891 is shown as clerk.

Hi Alice in wonderland.

This is really bugging both of us!!

Thankyou all for being so helpfull.

Hi Dea

I have tired the suggeston you have made.But can not find Union Workhouse Edmonton.

It just gives the mans name John Roach??

Olive

Hi Barbara.

Valentine ling 1940 was born Hundon Suffolk

So I wouldnt think so ??

Thankyou anyway.
Olive

Looks like Barbara has found him but, if not, - you can get Union Workshouse Edmonton by putting in the search - John Henry Roach born 1854 Gloucestershire.

This will bring up page 1 of 36 for the Workhouse, then it's a case of trawling through I am afraid.

Hi Alice

Thankyou for looking.
But now my relation Linda says he was in the Work House when he died1902 so how do find him in there??

From Olive

Hi Alice,
Valentine died 4/3/1902 in Edmonton Union workhouse, why Emma is recorded as a widow I don't know. I suppose Valentine could have been in the workhouse during the 1901 census but I'm not sure how to find the census for it, although it must exist!
Valentine is also missing on the 1861 census, he would have been single, and the 1891 census, (no sign of any of the family). I've tried all combinations of name variants but to no avail.

Hi langdon Lass

So it looks as though Valentine Ling died 1902
where was he on the 1901 Census??
Thankyou
Olive

Hi

I have looked in vain for the Census containing =

Valentine Ling born 1840 Hundon Suffolk.died 1902
Valentine Ling 1840 married Emma Sams born1840.

Another member and myself are unable to find him on the 1891 and1901 Census.

So I wondered if someone would be kind enough to see if they can find him for me please.
