Find Ancestors

(well just trying to make that easier to read!)...

(although I'm not sure on reference 'dame family' and 'Wright Family Tree', and how they relate, or where this all is!) (if Cambs. think I better get the 'pill bottle' out ready, lol)

I have both certificates for Henry / Harry Blunt Thompson his name on these is Harry Blunt Thompson father down as Charles Blunt Thompson

list of Charles and Mary Ann's children as follows out of a bible I have.

also have a print out from ancestry for a Wright family tree

dame family William is at the top it's so small he is either 1810 or 22 not sure wife's name can't make out but I think she married again as next to her is Shearsmith

I think Booth hope this helps it is of use

So these look to be some of the births- Just putting these for my own reference. I'm at work today, but will take a look later.

Do you have any of the children's marriage certificates or birth certificates? Where is it listed that Charles BLUNT Thompson is their father?

"William was Father of Charles" (would that be a William Blunt then?)


Taken from a Bible, are there no dates?...

(awaits George, lol)

Chris :)

Nope- did wonder about this one:

THOMPSON, ALICE mmn:THOMPSON
GRO Reference: 1878 D Quarter in NORTHAMPTON UNION Volume 03B Page 59

But if George has details from certificates, maybe he can share the details. Until we know where his information has come from, it's a bit of a guessing game.

Alice might be in the index under Thompson -mmn Iliffe or under surname Iliffe, but I can imagine Iliffe could be mistranscribed quite easily!

I'm done for today- got an early start tomorrow, but I'll take a look in the afternoon.

Has Alice Birth been found?...(apologies if above somewhere!)

(1881 says Burton Latimer, 1891 says Rugby)

Chris :)

I wonder where George's friend got the name Charles Blunt Thompson.

George, was it from Alice's marriage?

Did wonder the same 'Blunt' theory...

Chris :)

(Birthplace 'Fen', not giving a lot away, big area that covers Cambs. lol!)

(and looking for Mary Ann Iliffe (variants) Birth, Mother Maiden name Louth/Lowth (variants)

This needs some serious sorting. If the Henry in 1911 posted by Sylvia is the same Henry/ Harry, then this looks to be his marriage:

Thompson Harry B Hull 9d 534

But I wonder if he'd been married before:

Brindley Mary Burton 6b 432
Fox Thomas Burton 6b 432
Iliff Mary Ann Burton 6b 432 <<<<<<<<<<<<

But this would appear to be this couple 1891:

Name: Mary A Thompson
Age: 48
Estimated birth year: abt 1843
Relation: Wife
Spouse's Name: William Thompson
Gender: Female
Where born: Uppingham, Rutland, England
Civil Parish: Horninglow

So the above birth reg for Harry is not the Henry we are looking for.

(could be Shirley, out today, so having to go!, hope something turns up, lol)
