Hi

Have found either children of my relation James George French who married Ellen Ricketts - however I can only find their births cannot seem to find them on the census when they are older, or any marriages or deaths.

They are:


William Benjamin Born 1879 Hackney
Mary Ann F Born 1881 St Giles
Louisa Born 1883 Strand
Ellen Born 1886 Strand
Robert T Born 1890 St Giles
Elizabeth Rose Born 6 December 1891 St Giles
Jane Maria Born 13 March 1897 Pancras
Charles Philip Born 5 June 1899Pancras

Their other son Janes Charles I have found his marriage, death and all his children it is just the ones above I am having trouble with.

Any help would be great

Thanks

My name is Julie in case you hadn't noticed

In your OP you say Quote :however I can only find their births cannot seem to find them on the census when they are older, or any marriages or deaths.: Unquote

Maybe you should have said what census you had them in also in none of your replies to Jax did you mention what census you had them in

Hi Julie

Really sorry if I have offended you - none was meant and I am sorry I didn't mention the census before.

Don't worry about looking anymore I really didn't want to upset anyone, I will look into the information you have all kindly found for me.

Sorry again and thanks for everyones help
