That's good Lin.... as long as it's not all been wasted :-)

We don't like giving in that's the trouble!!!

And sometimes when people post Census and BMD details on a thread it's so that we can see all the information in one place and that helps everyone that's searching for Uncle Joe Bloggs or as in your case Josef....

I'm sure some of us will still keep looking for Josef so just nudge this thread up every now and again and who knows???

Kind regards,

Cathy

Sorry ladies not been at this very long the site points you to this area for Tips on how to find people which is why i did not continue on the other thread, but you have not wasted your time some very great stuff if indeed the family Geirer is them then this would help me look.
Still need to try to find when they came into England.

not quite Cathy

..... we did find some things that aren't on that other thread.


But I must say that it would have been better if Linda Jane had continued on the same thread so that we would not have wasted time duplicating the effort.

Kaye??? In the absence of any records coming up for Josef's entry into the country we are trying to find out when there are the earlist records for him in Britain.

If Linda has other information maybe she would like to post it on here so that we might be more able to help her....

Kind regards,

That was good spotting Sylvia....

This is how he's transcribed on Findmypast.

I notice on the original image of the 1911 Census under Nationality of

every person born in a foreign country, Josef just states Austria. He hasn't

stated the year of naturalisation.

Could it have been his wife?

Minnie Pooke 1906 Brighton Sussex, East Sussex

Josef Schenringer 1906 Brighton Sussex, East Sussex

Can't find anything about him coming into the country.....

The only other record I can find is his death record...

Name: Josef C Scheuringer
Death Registration Month/Year: 1941
Age at death (estimated): 59
Registration district: Hove
Inferred County: Sussex
Volume: 2b
Page: 769

Do you happen to know what the C stands for Linda?

Not that it will help much but you never know.....

Did he have a sister Minnie born 5 July 1880? Place of birth Brighton.

From the NA site...http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/

Enter Scheuringer into the search box and only one entry comes up....The one for Minnie.

You can then download, for free, her 'Female Enemy Alien-Exemption from Internment-Non Refugee' record.

Chris

*** Update***

Minnie was a married woman so maybe Josef 's sister in law???
