Find Ancestors

As I had so much help with some of my research... I'm happy to help others...
please give all the known info... and what you are seeking to achieve...

Hello Diane

I would like to take you up ion your kind offer if I may please.

I am looking for Jane Long born Doncaster 1828 -1831 depending which census age you believe!

I am sorry I don't have a lot more info as she is one of my brick walls. I have her on census from 1861 to 1901 but in her married name which was Ward, and all in York.
However on all censuses she has consistently put Doncaster as her place of birth.

Only 2 children that I know of Bessy/Betsy ( could be short for Elizabeth?) and Ellen in case this shows as a mother's name.

So sorry this is turning into war and peace but I wanted to give you as much info as possible.

thanks you

Christine

any good?

From memory Ansty isn't too far from Doncaster?

Have searched all Janes born in Doncaster in 1841, and none jump out as mis-transcriptions for Long.....

guess this is one for the experts on the Records Office board if you don't think the Ansty one is right...

sorry :(

thank you Diane for looking,

I don't think somehow think she's mine.

Have googled and there isn't an Ansty near Doncaster

I do appreciate you looking though :)

Could I be cheeky and ask you to check the 1851 for me if it's not too much trouble

many thanks

christine

think we need to find what area Doncaster came under back in those days...
There are several options in 1851, none of which are immediately obvious..

Hi Diane

Sorry I have just looked on Genuki and there are so many areas around Doncaster.

I realise I have set you an impossible task with so little information.
This is a problem family!!

I really appreciate the time you have spent and perhaps I may post again if I can narrow the area down a little?

thanks again

Christine :)

Hi Diane, I am looking for my great great grandfather Charles Hopkins, born 1805 In Dumbleton, Gloucester marriage date. I know he married an Elizabeth but dont know her maiden name. Im thinking it will be in the Pallot index marriage for 1760 -1837. I also dont know where Elizabeth was born either. Thank you so much for any help you are able to give me.

Kind regards.

Patricia

Sorry, nothing on Pallot index, but this is mostly London.

On familysearch.org there is a marriage of Charles Hopkins to Elizabeth Harris on 01/08/1827 at Longney, Gloucs...

is that any help?

don't know if either of these 2 deaths are possible...
I haven't found them on censuses either..

Deaths Mar 1864 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHIRLEY Edward Maidstone 2a 395

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deaths Mar 1865 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHIRLEY Edward Walsall 6b 434

There are many deaths of Elizabeth Shirley in the 5 year period, none specifically Bermondsey.

I've been looking for a John Gibbard and a Mary born 1866 (unknown) John was born in London.I can't find them in the census's .Their first child was also a John Gibbard born 1888/89 they lived in London Holborn area./I've been looking for many years with no luck .may-be you can find something ,I'm even beginning to wonder if they were married in Ireland.
THANKS k

Di - I had actually asked for information elsewhere, but after I copied it into my records, I got the dates all mixed up - and wasn't sure which which census I was typing up - so am starting all over again.

Parents Robert T Smith & Laura Ann (nee Burgess)
Children
Robert Chas Smith
Kate B Smith
William Hy Smith
Edith F Smith
Thomas Jas Smith

They were living in Cheltenham, Glos, and parents were married in 1872, so children followed thereafter.

I'm looking for Census 1881, 1891 & 1901.

Parents were born (approx) 1851 & 1845 respectively)

Hope you can help
Judy

Kath,

where was Thomas born ? are you sure you are looking at the same person if the birth dates are 10 years apart?

If you give me at least the county he was under in the 1841 census I will see what I can do, if you haven't already had the answer....

Doreen,

I've found the marriage... if you order the certificate (from the GRO website £7) with the information below, you will be able to get info on Beatrice's father etc. There were several Beatrice Woodheads born in W Yorks in 1894 so you wouldn't know which to pick otherwise.

Oct/Dec Qtr, 1923. Huddersfield district, Volume 9a, page 707.

Good luck!

Patricia,
Happy to help when I have a few mins... sadly I got interrupted soon after I put this post up!
