Find Ancestors

Hi Marion have now also seen image on FreeBMD and that is 1907 if you want to see what you think

>>>>>LESLIE, Agnes F Servant Single F 35 1856 Domestic Servant Cook Keeth Scotland

The F stands for FEMALE Lolly I think,not a middle name soz... :-P

Back to cleaning up after Mr Hurricanes departure and to try and sort out youngest son.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Jan.
No, the image isn´t available on Ancestry, Just the index.
Something a bit odd there. Wouldn´t have thought the year would be mistranscribed.
After a bit more digging, have found what looks like Agnes´s brother & his wife in Wandsworth in 1901 with an 8 year old son Alfred.
George died in 1911 & his wife Georgina in 1910, leaving 18 year old Alfred on his own. Did Agnes move in with him?.
Off to do a bit more digging although there´s every chance it will be another dead end.

Hello Everyone,well today should be hospital and doctor free, even the nurse isnt calling today so I feel sort of normal for a change. Ron is quite bright and ate his breakfast porridge.
The thread is very busy at the moment but Diane still seems well hidden.
Once again let me say Thank You so much to all of you kind people that are helping to trace Dianes roots (she must have had some) though it is obvious she didnt want us to know about them, there must be a reason for this, just wish I could remember some little thing that would solve the riddle.
Lovely sunny day here in the island though it is quite cold.
Must remember to put the clock back tonight.it will be nice to have a lay in in the morning,
Much love to you all my friends
Evelyn XX <3

Trouble is, by the time I've posted everything, I forget where it all links in....I sometimes have to have two tabs open on this thread so that I don't repeat myself.... :-S :-D

Just checked again to make sure I haven´t lost it completely.
Ancestry BMD´s give Agnes Anne Leslie B abt 1857 Died 4th quarter 1914 Wandswoth 1d 307

I followed up the Agnes Leslie living with the White family because she was born in Scotland.
The other one was born in England.
Scottish Agnes had been with the Whites for a long time.(Since 1881 at least)
Her parents appear to be George Leslie & Margaret Dow, married 24.1.1851 St Bartholemew the Great, London.
In 1851 George was in Stornoway, a seaman aged 27 living with his mother Susan aged 55 born England & 2 sisters, Eliza aged 20 & Barbara aged 14.
Father must have died pre 1841)
Still plodding on.

Following up on Wisechilds - Agnes Annie Leslie I had a look at the 1911 but failed in finding her.

She is no longer in the White household at 86 Marine Parade Brighton

There is a death for An Agnes Leslie aged 54 Brighton Sept Q 1911.

On the 1891 she is Agnes F Leslie at 86 marine parade Brighton and her
birthplace is transcribed as Keeth Scotland, this maybe Keith I am not so good on Scottish place names the F looks good in the original.

I will have a look for the Agnes living in Wandsworth

Message from the Oracle!!!

She is wading through some family probs at the mo but is keeping an eye on things here. Her suggestion is that we explore more of the 'Leslie' route.

There you are wisechild.......go for the Leslie's as and when you can :-D

Just to add Cynthia.
George Leslie married Margaret Dow 24.11.1851 St Bartholemew the Great London.
Can´t find birth reg for Agnes.
Think George may have been marriesd previously because in 1871 Margaret is a widow & there are 2 much older children, George 18 & Frances 16 plus Agnes 14, Margaret 12, Halton 10,Jane 5 & Thomas 3 & Margaret´s mother Agnes Dow.
Sorry I can´t do more. Am a bit restricted because I don´t have broadband, so everything takes forever to download. otherwise I´d be happy to follow it up.
Marion

Not that I know of wisechild.......anyone who is good at census up for it please?



I have received the following from the Hebridean Archives....

*****
I've checked with the Nicolson and sadly the admission registers for the primary department have not survived. They checked the secondary admissions based upon the information we were able to give, including that there was a question mark over her name, but similarly had no luck. I have also checked with Stornoway, Laxdale and Sandwickhill schools but none have surviving admission registers for that period.

*****


and, I have also received this info from my friendly Archivist in Wandsworth....

*****
Thank you for your email. I've checked the Terrapin Road address for you from 1926-1929 (the 1927 register for Balham and Tooting is sadly missing). Diane was not listed at the address but some MacLeods were. Their names were Patrick Macfarlane MacLeod and Nora Douthwitt Maude MacLeod.

It may help if you kind folk could say on here what you are willing to search for in order to save others doubling up on efforts. :-D
