Marriages Jun 1866

Crabtree Elizabeth Rochdale 8e 93

Kershaw Robert Rochdale 8e 93

Marriages Sep 1870
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Kershaw Robert Rochdale 8e 143
LORD Elizabeth Rochdale 8e 143

I Personally think its the Crabtree one due to Mary Ellen being born 1869 and her birth looks like 1868.

Hello -Could you possibly look on the full BMD index for me -I am looking for the birth of Thomas {W] Stonehouse for 1888-1889-1890-in Yorks could be Hull but I am not certain-if you could include the ref numbers [then I could send of for the certificate and ask to have a check on parents -there could be more than 1 as more come up on the census-Much appreciated Heather

you are a gem
cathy

Hi Lesley
thankyou
I had not seen the one you have found,and in fact it is the only one there seems to be!!

Had I asked you before to look for the 3 brothers in the army? if so I am sorry I had not remembered.

The info I was given today is very patchy but it stirred me to try to get help again to find frances.

thanks again
cathy

Catherine

Have you seen the I.Wight marriage -

Marriages Dec 1924 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Keegan Francis P Redstone I.Wight 2b 1584

Redstone Gabriales A R Keegan I.Wight 2b 1584

Think he was born too late for the WW1 - and I have searched for the brothers before in the WW1 Records.

Other than this you have a tall order on your hands. Its not possible to search every year and Keegan is a fairly common name.

Lesley

Hi Lesley
I wonder if you might try to find a record for me? I have tried everthing I can think of but no success.

my grt uncle Frances Patrick Keegan b.1907 Houghton le Spring,Co.Durham. apart from his birth record/cert there is no trace of him anywhere marriage or death !!

I have been told by an elderly relative that he went in the army and was posted to India with his brothers Joseph b.1901 and Michael b. 1904. between wars.

I know it`s very little to go on,but I am hoping you may be ble to pull something out of the bag !!
thankyou,cathy

I suggest your only option is to use the 1911 census. There is a child born 1910 in bermondsey and also a boy aged 7 in Lewisham. i would check whether any of these two had a father named Henry who was a labourer.

This is really your only option.

Lesley

Hi Lesley, As I live in OZ can you suggest a website for me to ask about the parents of Thomas Fishwick, thank's a lot, Ann

hi lesley

i think he was born in bermondsey of lewisham area south east london as that is where my father in law was brought up. at the time of his marriage he lived at 23 arnolds place bermondsey and the witnesses to the marriage were henry bell (deceased) and harry or henry florey sorry bad hand writing. george was a general laborer and his father was a laborer. they were married in the registry office the witness were T Robson there is another initial could be L or R or F.and H A Moore hope this helps

nikki

thanks for all yor help..your a star! x

Nichola

Do you know the date that George Bell died? Also do you have any idea in what area of London he was born. With a name like Bell ... well you know what I'm going to say lol

Also how about Witnesses names?


Lesley

hi lesley

was wondering if you could help me please i am rtrying to trace my father in laws family his name was john bell bell 10/3/1940 but cant find his birth registered anywhere. he had a sister hilda born 1933 in bermondsey london and an older brother george born 1931 he later died. there mother was a louisa florey and she married a george bell in 1930 in bermondsey london but i have manage to find louisa family but not george he was 25 when he married so he would have been born about 1905 on the marriage cert his father was named as henry (deceased) but we are not sure if his name was this or william and i have been searching for over a year now but know joy and my father in law cant help me at all so maybe you could
