Find Ancestors

No. Didn't realise it would bring it to the top of the boards..sorry! Was just remembering what a great help this Kate was...sorry!!

Is there a reason why you have bought this to the top of the boards after nearly 6 years? Are you looking for more help?

:) :-)

Oh great! There I was thinking it was the wrong one. I'm so glad they turned out to have a Jane after all! Kate.

Hello everyone!!!!! I've found that they had another daughter a JANE SMITH!!! woohoo! Looks like he married her!!!!!!!!!! Thankyou Kate xXx xXx xXx

Hiya I'm back form being out now, yes that is true about the Ellen!! I was hoping that he was married 2 one of the daughters I know about and a Jane no I don't know of a Jane hummm Mark the brother married a Jane also...hummmmm I'll start doing some more searching now I'm in,Thanks anyway you've all been a great help on trying to solve this!.Pippa

This could be the marriage, but you don't have a Jane on your list either! Marriages Sep 1878 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Moore Samuel Winchester 2c 154 SMITH Jane Winchester 2c 154 Kate.

And just because I keep forgetting their details, this is the 1881 entry: View Record Name Estimated Birth Year Birthplace Relationship Residence View Image View Record Samuel Moor abt 1857 Romsey, Hampshire, England Son in Law Street End, North Baddesley, Hampshire, England View Record Mark Smith abt 1865 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Son Street End, North Baddesley, Hampshire, England View Record Sarah Smith abt 1822 Romsey, Hampshire, England Wife Street End, North Baddesley, Hampshire, England View Record William Smith abt 1820 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Head Street End, North Baddesley, Hampshire, England and the Smith family in 1871: Alice Smith abt 1863 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Daughter Baddesley Hampshire View Record Kate Smith abt 1860 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Daughter Baddesley Hampshire View Record Mark Smith abt 1865 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Son Baddesley Hampshire View Record Sarah Smith abt 1824 Ramsey, Hampshire, England Wife Baddesley Hampshire View Record William Smith abt 1820 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Head Baddesley Hampshire

Back now - don't forget that Ellen could be Samuel's second wife for all we know, not the Smith one. Kate.

Pippa - I think your Smith / Moor* just goes to prove that you can never assume anything with ancestors and census info needs to backed with certs.

oooh dear arn't our ancestors confusing! well it seems that maybe his mum was called sarah but my sarah seems to be the same one.....although she does change age a couple of years either side each census. looks like more searching for me

I think you need to trace Samuel Moor* back in the cenus - he MAY not have married a daughter Good luck Esta

1861 Census Samuel Moore abt 1826 Romsey, Hampshire, England Head St Mary Extra Hampshire Samuel Moore abt 1856 Romsey, Hampshire, England Son St Mary Extra Hampshire Sarah Moore abt 1829 Timobury, Hampshire, England Wife St Mary Extra Hampshire Sarah L Moore abt 1859 Romsey, Hampshire, England Daughter St Mary Extra Hampshire This suggests his mother was Sarah, although p.o.b. is not the same

hummm this is very confusing...I've never seen a Ellen erm and I do think that the Sarah is the same Sarah....well i hope!

Thanks Kate I'll try again x

I found him on the North Baddesley census.......heres the link, he's with the parents William Smith and Sarah Smith and their youngest son Mark:-http://homepage(.)ntlworld(.)com/sandra(.)s/1881Census(.)html remove brackets

Not sure this helps as you don't mention a daughter called Ellen - followed Samuel through the folowing census and I think this is him . 1891 - Possible Samuel Moor* Moore, Ellen abt 1864 Chilworth, Hampshire, England Wife Hursley Hampshire **Moore, Samuel abt 1856 Romsey, Hampshire, England Head Hursley Hampshire Moore, Samuel E E abt 1889 Baddesley, Hampshire, England Son Hursley Hampshire 1901 Ellen Moore abt 1865 Southampton, Hampshire, England Wife Chilworth Hampshire Ellen Moore abt 1894 Ampfield; Hursley, Hampshire, England Daughter Chilworth Hampshire Louise Moore abt 1899 North Stoneham, Hampshire, England Daughter Chilworth Hampshire Samuel Moore abt 1826 Romsey, Hampshire, England Boarder Chilworth Hampshire ** Samuel Moore abt 1856 Romsey, Hampshire, England Head Chilworth Hampshire Samuel Moore abt 1889 North Stoneham, Hampshire, England Son Chilworth Hampshire

Well, if you're certain that the wife is the same Sarah as in 1851, then all I can suggest is as I said before, search for the marriage in the surnames Moore and More as well as Moor, and also look for him on the 1891 and 1901 to see if his wife is with him on either of those. I'm afraid I haven't got time to help search just now as I have to go out. Good luck! I know how difficult Smiths can be to trace... Kate.

Hi yes I've tried searching him under different spellings but nothing came up and it says he is married and that he is 24, I miss-minused, my maths isn't the best! lol SORRY EVERYONE How silly am i?! I've corrected them now thanks everyone

1881 has him born 1857 not 1867 which is right ?
