Find Ancestors

Many thanks Julie for all you've done for me. The John you suggest is a relation of mine, (his grandmother is the Nancy in the family,her eldest brother Ira being my great grandfather), and he has got less details than I have. Again, many,many thanks

Hi Julia

What i would do is get intouch with the John on this site and see what he has worked out seeing as he has loads of the same names as you.

Take care Julie

PS should of said you need to go to the part where is says Search Trees

Hi Thomas - I think for my money, you are correct. Webster was a 'middle' name, peculiar to the Turner family. Also, Samuel's grandmother came from Colchester. So, not beyond the realms of possibility.I'm going to put a message out for descendants

Hi Julia.Difficult one really.Like I said,probably the wrong person.The one I found was a Baker in 1901,Lowestoft wife Eleanor but born Suffolk?Also wrong birth year.

I have researched two people in the past and their place and year of birth hvae been different through the Census info.Tom

Morning Julie
If you want to take up from hwere we left off yesterday that's fine, but if you want to leave it, that is equally fine. Many,many thanks - Julia

Got to sign of for now, the grandchildren are about to arrive for their tea, haven't seen them for a month, probably not been fed for that time either.Will speak to you tomorrow

That looks good for starters Wells and Webster was a name peculiar to this family. I've never been able to get my head round the Wells part but Webster was the maiden name of Williamb1840's mother, Eliza Webster, and several children were given it

Hi.This is probably wrong.but there's a Samuel Webster Turner who married in 1888,Tendring,Essex.

John married Emma Ashley in 1897, but I have thought of some thing else. The family had an aunt Emma Turner who went to keep house for two motherless neices in Newmarket. She was born 1836 and is on the 1881 as being there. Is it possible that she took in at least the girls who had become motherless from Whittlesey, and could appear in the 1891 as living there. Also living in the 1881 household is 10yr old Gertrude K Kerry, when she gets married to a Arthur Ranson, she gives her name of Gertrude K Turner. Is there anyway to find her parentage.

Did n't think but on here there is a John who has in his tree

Samuel, Eunice, Margaret (but born Whittlesey) Actually he has all the names have you been in touch with him

Oh Well heres Margaret/Eliza's birth

TURNER Margaret Eliza Wells Webster Oundle 3b 211

Many thanks for trying, it was just a hope. I can't find any deaths either - they could possibly have moved away, but I can't see any of William's daughters going into service. They were too posh for that

I have tried every possible way i know to look for those 3 and can't see anything..thought i found Eunice in the 1901 but it wasn't her

Yes please, and too save you time and trouble, I have the marriages of the other siblings of the family

But if Eliza is margaret then we need to look for her as Margaret too

Heres Ira

Marriages Mar 1886 (97%)
