Albert Dowling born April 1837, who married Isabella Bird, is the furthest back definite ancestor that I know of.

If I may offer some advice...........don't jump around from generation to generation,

Start from today....and work back systematically, one step at a time. proving everything as you go, by acquiring documents to back up all your findings.

As far as I can tell, you are actually not even sure that the chap who married Elizabeth Lambert is your ancestor...........or have I misunderstood?

Do you have the marriage cert for Alfred and Isabella?

If so....what are the details on it about Alfred's father.

Calm down everyone, its not the end of the world. I certainly haven't got the hump with anyone.....I am just chuffed that you all seem to be so willing to help me!

Roy........

1881 census is FREE.........look for her there, when she should be with parents

Kay

I didn't ask Roy to delete anything.......in fact I was just posting advice to him NOT to, when the thread disappeared

Frankly, I couldn't make head or tail of your instructions, Kay........let alone someone who hadn't any previous experience of these boards.

Now trying to find the names of the parents of Emily Dowling born London circa 1874 and possibly the niece of Alfred Dowling born 1837. I found her name in the 1891 Census

Wasnt he demand to delete todays thread,!


Yes !! I belive he was,

I advised to compare ,take notes from any new information from each thread and delete one or the other.

To be strictly accurate, Roy isn't a new member - he is new to using the boards

What is the cheapest way to buy a marriage certificate? Is it possible to buy it in downloadable format...ie a scanned version?

Roy has now deleted the whole of today's thread............thanks to some very confusing instructions he was given about how to deal with his threads...................

now I just have one thread...sorry about the second one...that I have now deleted.

I think Roy has explained,

He is a new member and hasnt got to grips with the site and its confusing layout. yet.

To keep up with duplicate thread

Roy

Suggest you purchase the marriage cert for Alfred and Isabella - to find out ACCURATELY who his father was

Why did you start a new thread today.....without even mentioning all the info which had been found for you?

Duplicate postings are not allowed

This is a duplicate to work going on on your other thread.
Could you combine the information and delete one of the threads?
Thanks

Thanks for your help so far. In answer to your question, yes I do believe Alfred Dowling born c1838 (and married to Isabella Mary Bird) is the son of Alfred Dowling born around 1810-1816
