Margaret do you have any census info on him maybe the 1861 1871 so it is easier to trace back as I cannot find one born in Greetland ~ and am I right in thinking Greetland is near or in Halifax? If you don't have them I can help you find them! Zoe

Hello Zoe thank you for your offer I have William Fletcher b 1843 greetland yorkshire father henry mother unknown would it be possible to find him on the 1851 cencus please Margaret

Anita Hi Sorry found him in the first post you put Charles William ~ oops Only one I could find but wife Elizabeth 1901 3 Pitfield Street Head is a Coach Finisher Joseph is a Pipe Maker Elizabeth Downing abt 1880 Netherton Dudley, Worcestershire, England Wife Dudley Worcestershire William Downing abt 1876 Dudley, Worcestershire, England Head Dudley Worcestershire Hannah Hughes abt 1881 Woodside Dudley, Worcestershire, England Sister-in-law Dudley Worcestershire Joseph Hughes abt 1882 Netherton Dudley, Worcestershire, England Brother-in-law Dudley Worcestershire ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Looks like his birth Name: DOWNING, William Charles Record Type: Births Quarter: March Year: 1876 District: Dudley County: Staffordshire Worcestershire Volume: 6c Page: 185 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Looks like his marriage Name: Downing, William Charles Record Type: Marriages Quarter: December Year: 1896 District: Dudley County: Staffordshire Worcestershire Volume: 6c Page: 24a Do you know the names of any of the children and when they were born as it is easier to track backwards than forwards but you need certificates to ensure that the information you collect is correct Zoe

Hi again Zoe, Thanks very much for all your time and trouble doing my lookup, I must take in Thomas Collins came over to England on his own from Ireland. thanks again. Betty

Betty Neither of the Thomas' in Durham had a father with them ~ sorry Zoe

Anita No Charles Downing born Dudley and cannot find Edith Drain do you have any more info at all. Are you presuming Dudley as they were married there or something? Zoe

Thanks so much for my Lee look-up. Best wishes, Steph xx

Hello Tracey, What year was he born in Sussex. Betty

PLEASE COULD SOMEONE HELP WITH FINDING A THOMAS FREEMAN BORN IN SUSSEX WE THINK

Hi Zoe, I am so, so sorry, I just checked my information and Thomas Collins and Mary A Duffy didn't get married untill 1866 so they couldn't be in the census as a married family anyway. I am not sure which one of the Thomas Collins's you have would have been mine but if any of them also has a father called Thomas Collins from Ireland then that would be the one. Is there anyway you can look and check for me please. I have not got that far yet, it would be a great help if I found out his mothers name too.. thank you!!! Betty

Pamela Do you have the address which was on the marriage cert? As she maybe at that address in 1901 and then we can be sure of parents ages ect Just having a look at 1891 Zoe

Betty There are 17 Thomas collins b1841 +/- 2 born Ireland and 2 in the Durham area, But obviously you will not know the correct one and it maybe neither of them Thomas Collins abt 1839 Ireland Son Bishopwearmouth Durham Thomas Collins abt 1843 Ireland Boarder Monkwearmouth Durham Do you have his marriage cert to his wife as this would be real handy now for his fathers name Zoe

Ancestry is playing up at the moment will do the request's once I can get back on Zoe

THANKS Zoe they are the right people :-) Adam

Hi Zoe, Did you have a chance to look for my Thomas Collins in the 1861 census please. Betty

Hi Zoe, I wonder if you can find this family for me in 1861, I have them here in 1871, Not sure if Thomas Collins (Head) came over from Ireland earlier but as son Peter was born in 1869 he must have. I also want to check Mary A (wife) birth place on all other census it said she was born in Scotland, not Berwick- Upon -Tweed. Thanks for your help. Betty 1871 Mary A Collins abt abt 1844 Berwick-Upon-Tweed Wife Durham Peter Collins abt abt 1869 Benfieldside, Durham, England Son Durham Phillip Collins abt abt 1870 Benfieldside, Durham, England Son Durham Thomas Collins abt abt 1841 Ireland Head Durham Margaret Tracy abt abt 1849 Tyrone, Ireland Lodger
