Ok, I've just been on the National Archives website and by chance I typed in my 'original' name, Stuckgold. I got one hit which matches my great great uncle, John Stuckgold, and because it's such an unusual name I'm thinking it could be him. And when I saw what it was for I got a shock. 'John Stuckgold, Russian subject, convicted of bribery and sentenced to two months imprisonment, recommended for deportation'. Firstly could this be my John Stuckgold? He wasn't deported, and died in 1932 in England, this record is from 1918. He was a Polish Russian Subject on the 1901 census and he never married, which could explain why. Secondly how to do I order it? I'm so confused by the National Archive website, I feel quite silly. Would appreciate any input. Kirsten |

I've often wondered that, but that's her married name. Her husband Jacques Stuckgold could be. But I have no idea. |

Oh, it would be great to be related to a soprano, but such luck has never come my way! |
