Find Ancestors

Hi Maureen,

I am glad I am not alone on this !!

I am happy that what we have found all fits together and may well all be correct BUT, I still cannot be certain that it is the correct info for SS!

Don't want to be a 'wet blanket' but I always like to 'prove' everything before I accept it as correct !!

Alas,Dea------Wondering the same thing!

Where the bleep are George and Henry/Harry in 1891???

I was hoping for someone with more refined eyesight than mine (ie -your nose and the computer screen don't have to be touching each other) to have a look at the signatures from the London marriages for Emily. Is she (the witness) a sister or the mother?. Either way....the handwriting could be a bit of help:

I would still like to see that cert though.

I am happy with what we have found but I, personally, would like to see a bit more 'proof' that we are right.

Thanks Ja....x for 'pulling together' what we have found !!

brilliant! i now after searching for most of my 60 years have 2 sets Grandfather/Grandmother-Grt Grandfather & Grt Grandmother

i cant believe you found all this out in such a short time,in fact it took hours rather than years

Thank you so very much!

i posted this on history then noticed it said do not add so ive left comment here ,hope this is ok

im away to add to the tree...sooooo exited ,

Hi Jax ile look now ..i keep getting cut off but found the reason/culprit this am , it's the dam dog T-Jay chewing threw the wire...
Maureen yes i have Leonards B.M.D certs ..Chris brilliant site i found it ..Angus Scotland is included on it as well but confusing unless ye have buckets o cash for credits as ancestors on my side were nearly all called john stephen so not sure whos who and so on

ok going to history for a wee peek,,yeeeehaaaa!

The great thing about deceasedonline.com is that you can get the names and burial dates of all those buried in the lair. This is useful as not everyone buried in the lair may be named of the headstone (if there is one). I found one on there where only the wife was named on the headstone but there were 6 family members in the same grave.

Hello SS, yes, Lilly F was another daughter...she is with Stephen and Margaret (and other siblings) on page 2 of this thread :-)

You can find Deceased Online on google, credits need to be bought in order to view scanned copies of Burial Register.

The Letter of Administration means there wasn't a Will made...a copy can be got, but will have no other info. on it, other than what is already posted.

Chris :)

edits to say, it's lookin' good Jax over on History...Well Done :-))

Looks good,jax.

One belated question to SS.... do you actually have the birth cert for Leonard Reginald Prescott?? (I may have missed that in all this!). Sorry.
