Find Ancestors

Hi Debbie, Would you be able to check for one of my more elusive ancestors please? His name was ALLEN RIGDEN born c1844 in Kent, probalbly Whitstable. He married a girl called EMILY (Surname unknown) who was a lot younger than himself. I have found them in 1881, Allen (37 and an Oyster Dredger) and Emily (25) were living with their children Annie (10), Henry (4) and William (2). By 1891 Annie had left home. In 1901 I can only find Henry and William (my 2xG Grandfather). Would you be able to check if you can find a birth for Allen c1844 and/or a marriage to Emily c1870 in Kent. Any info would be greatfully received as he is a mystery before 1881!!! Cheers Kay

Thanks a lot Debbie Kay

Hi Deborah, if you have time, I would really appreciate it if you could look for Edward & Mary Livick and daughter Sarah (age 5) in Cumberland or Lancs. He was born Penrith and she was born Lancs about 1850, I cannot find them on LDS site. Thanks

Hi Deborah, could you please lookup the birth/baptism of Thomas Richmond born Darlington cir 1812 and Jane Davison born Lincoln city cir 1807. Any info would be appreciated. Kind regards. Martin

Hi Debbie, I posted a request to you on 24th November but have not had a reply. Did you send me an e-mail? . Another GC member sent me an e-mail which I didn't receive and I'm wondering if the same has happened with yours. If it's just that you've been busy and haven't had the time to do the lookup, I apologise for troubling you. Lilian

Dear Deborah I have to admit to being a bit ignorant still as I'm not really sure what the BVRI contains and what you would need to help you do a search. If you ever have time to help me I would be very grateful. I want any info on George Cooper born Lambeth c1824. He married his cousin Mary Cooper, born Kennington 17/11/1822. The first child, Elizabeth was born Marylebone,1871. Thanks Rosemary Alderson Oz

Morning Deborah, I've e-mailed you my request, and thanks very much for the offer of help. All the best - Vanda

Jane Wallbank on her marriage cert: in 1856 she has full spinster father George Spencer. feel her mother prob: died in childbirth. She was born 1836 Penwortham Lancs. but all records were destroyed in fire. in 1841 census think I have found her living with presume Uncle James she was 6 years. If you could knock down this brick wall, I would really appreciate it. Look forward in hearing from you. If it is after Christmas. Merry Christmas to you. Sally.

Deborah thank you for your offer. I am curious about the 1881 census disc and wonder if it differs from the online version? I have William FAIRY born Hunts in 1848 and his wife Martha Ellen 1847 who seem to be on the online version as William HENRY a leather bag maker. Can you tell me if the discs can identify them more positively? Very grateful Marlene

Hi Deb, I am looking for a marriage between John Johnson and Eliza Baker about 1867 possibly in Kent or Bethnal Green area. Also I have Eliza parents as Thomas Baker and Hannah but dont know her surname. Eliza was born 1843 ish so would presume that to be an estimated date for their wedding. Any help please. Gloria
