Find Ancestors

Hi I have a Frederick Rosier Mitchell as the father of Frederick William Mitchell on a marriage certificate. His occupation is down as Gentleman. I have found the death of a Frederick Rosier Mitchell in March 1909 age 64. This would make his birth 1845 which fits in with what we know. His son F W Mitchell was born in 1870. However i cannot seem to find any other trace of F R Mitchell. I am looking for a marriage or record of his birth. I think it may be the Colchester area. Can anyone help? Karen

Where was the son born? Rose

when did his son FW marry?Whi did he marry? have you found them on 1901 census (I mean FW married) Mitchell is one of my 'Main line' names and they are piggies!! jess x

I thought it worthwhile posting 1881..........so we have full details to simplify searches...................... I'm assuming this is the family as there are no birthplace details in the request Frederick R. MITCHELL Head Male 36 St James Clerkenwell Railway Clerk Annie MITCHELL Wife Female 33 Aylesbury, Buckingham, England Frederick W. MITCHELL Son Male 14 Aberdare, Wales Scholar Annie R. MITCHELL Daur Female 16 Aylesbury, Buckingham, England Scholar Emma F. MITCHELL Daur Female 10 Aberdare, Wales Scholar Harry MITCHELL Son Male 7 Stoney Stratford, Buckingham, England Scholar Francis D. MITCHELL Daur Female 5 Castlethorpe, Buckingham, England Scholar Margaret R. MITCHELL Daur Female 3 Old Bradwell, Buckingham, England Scholar Rupert R. MITCHELL Son Male 1 Old Bradwell, Buckingham, England Rose

Rose- where does Colchester fit in? would have assumed Aberdare 1871 but they are hiding! Jess x

POSSIBLY Fred snr in 1861............ Record Frederick Mitchell abt 1845 Clerkenwell, Jamaica Son Aylesbury Buckinghamshire View Record Joseph Mitchell abt 1818 Bermondsey, Surrey, England Head Aylesbury Buckinghamshire Rose

Jess..............Not a clue! Of course, I may not have the right lot in 1881......we won't know till Karen gets back to us. Rose

Just to throw a spanner in the pot , there is this Frederick Combo too from 1881: Fredrick R. MITCHELL Head M Male 34 Chippenham, Wiltshire, England Railway Porter Caroline MITCHELL Wife M Female 27 Bermuda, West Indies Wife Of Porter Ellen MITCHELL Daur Female 8 Bermuda, West Indies Scholar Fredrick MITCHELL Son Male 6 Bermuda, West Indies Scholar Carry MITCHELL Daur Female 4 Manchester, Lancashire, England Scholar Flora MITCHELL Daur Female 3 Manchester, Lancashire, England Scholar Edith MITCHELL Daur Female Burrow, Leicester, England Source Information: Dwelling Burrow Road Census Place Burrough, Leicester, England Family History Library Film 1341759 Public Records Office Reference RG11 Piece / Folio 318

Mmmmmmmmmm Thomas H Fisher abt 1858 Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England Brother-in-law Aberdare Glamorgan Fredk R Matchell abt 1845 Clerkenwell, Middlesex, England Head Aberdare Glamorgan Annie (wife ) could be nee fisher then

Frederick William Mitchell married a Maria Welham 1891ish (my dad has certificate) in colchester. They had children 1893,1896,1897. Have found Maria in 1901 but not F W but believe he was a soldier 61/61 Norfolk Reg on marriage cert. But cannot find F R Mitchell - most of the people i have on this side seem to come from colchester Karen

I take it this is the death your working from: Deaths Mar 1909 MITCHELL Frederick Rosier 64 Chertsey 2a 56 Chertsey is in SURREY and covers these areas: Bisley, Byfleet, Chertsey, Chobham, Horsell, Pyrford, Thorpe (from 1895), Walton upon Thames, Weybridge, Windlesham.

so we now have Wales, Jamaca and Bermuda...!! Colchester we want isn't it? Lol

Karen Could we have some feedback about the various census records posted on here...........so we know if we have the right people. No point following through if not. Rose

Karen Where is it that F W was born? Do you have his BC? If so Mothers name?

Looks like Dec QTR 1891 - Rats!!That is the marriage, not the birth

1901 census JUST INCASE IT HELPS: Ethel Mitchell abt 1893 Colchester, Essex, England Daughter Colchester Essex Frederick Mitchell abt 1896 Leyton, Essex, England Son Colchester Essex Gertrude Mitchell abt 1897 Leyton, Essex, England Daughter Colchester Essex Maria Mitchell abt 1871 Colchester, Essex, England Head Colchester Essex

I'm leaving this one now............till Karen gives us some feedback..... Rose

Is this FW in 1901: Name: Frederick Mitchell Age: 34 Estimated birth year: abt 1867 Relation: Soldier Household: View other family members Gender: Male Where born: Aberdare, Glamorgan, Wales Civil parish: Little Warley Ecclesiatical parish: Little Warley St Peter County/Island: Essex Country: England Source information: RG13/1665 Registration district: Billericay Sub-registration district: Brentwood ED, institution, or vessel: Warley Barracks Folio: 95 Page: 17 (click to see others on page) Household schedule number: 1 If soooooooooo then the info Rose found on the 1881 census is FR !!

THUS here is FR in 1901 Annie Mitchell abt 1847 Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England Wife Finchley Middlesex Beatrice Mitchell abt 1885 Stoke Newington, London, England Daughter Finchley Middlesex Frederick Mitchell abt 1845 Clerkenwell, London, England Head Finchley Middlesex Margaret Mitchell abt 1878 Bradwell, Buckinghamshire, England Daughter Finchley Middlesex Roland Mitchell abt 1882 Bradwell, Buckinghamshire, England Son Finchley Middlesex Henrietta Welch abt 1878 Hoxton, London, England Servant Finchley Middlesex PLUS he is recorded as LIVING ON HIS OWN MEANS qualifying him to be a Gentleman!!!

Which leads me to think this F R and his Dad in 1861: George Higgs abt 1835 Dunstable, Bedfordshire, England Boarder Aylesbury Buckinghamshire Frederick Mitchell abt 1845 Clerkenwell, Jamaica Son Aylesbury Buckinghamshire Joseph Mitchell abt 1818 Bermondsey, Surrey, England Head Aylesbury Buckinghamshire Living in the Market Sq of Aylesbury......... Joseph is a Pawnbroker and Frederick his assistant Gawd knows where the transcription of JAMAICA came from as it clearly says JAMES
