Hello there. I have a document in front of me saying that a lady called Sarah Elizabeth Smith, formerley Meeklenburgh is the mother of a Eliza Charlotte Smith in 1867 (the year of the childs birth). I am looking for ant record of anyone with the same surname as Meeklenburgh. What other forms of this name should I look under??

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?


And a lot of work done on it.

stick any forename with Mecklenburg and you'll find some!!!

groan..........................................................!!!!

Wow thanks. I have been sitting here for ages trying to swap the letters around. If it helps, she was married to a Charles Smith. The birth of her daughter was registered in Maldon in Essex in 1867, so I assume the Chelmsford or Whitham areas are the best bet. Thanks, you are brill.

I believe the idea was that you were going to order the birth certificate of

Name: Eliza Charlotte Smith
Year of Registration: 1867
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Maldon (1837-1972)
County: Essex
Volume: 4a
Page: 223

which will give you the name of her mother, the one whose surname was M*burg in some form.

Oh - is that the "document" you have in front of you?

I thought we were waiting for you to bring that info back to the existing thread.
