Find Ancestors

Hi

I wonder if anyone can find more about this lady than I have.

Ada Margaret Barbara Holmes born 1865 Burrows Lancashire to Henry Tuke Holmes and Mary Holmes.

The 3 infos I can find come with a variety of names but I know they are the right ones.

BIRTH: Ada Margaret Holme
1871: Ada B M Holmes living with parents in Wacton Norfolk
1891: Barbara Holmes staying with her Mothers sister, Annie Fowler, in Ecclesfield

That's all I can find. I would be grateful for any help.

Many thanks

Margaret

I see she is not with her Brother and widowed Father in 1881....

Hi

Just looked up a marriage for them found in Kendal 1899 added it to my tree, up popped another persons tree with them on but totally different family. of course the marriage reg. has her as Holme not Holmes. Perhaps the other tree is wrong but there are loads of family going back generations.

Hi Prickly Holly,

Thanks I do have this part of the family and also know what happened to the first 2 children but again can find no record of what happened to Joyce Maud Scott Holmes the youngest one. Can you help?
