Looking for any further info on the following HOLLANDS OF HACKNEY Joseph Samuel Holland b. 1842, Shoreditch, Hackney.He was listed as being a general dealer in 1891 and owned a shop 1901. He married Sarah b.. 1839. Had Charles J.Holland b. 1869, hackney Rueben Francis Holland b. 1877, Hackney (died aged 20) Joseph Samuel Holland b. 1867 Hackney.He married Alice Emmerton.They had a child named Joseph Holland.(1889) He married Margory Kate haines from Calne, Wiltshire. Any further info from charles/Rubens/Josephs or any related to Emmerton would be fantastic. I have got back to the 1600's on the other branch of the family, but only as far as 1842 with the Hollands.

Janine - I think you now have two threads running don't you? If so, can you delete one of them as it is a definite no no to have two running - confuses people no end

Thanks
