Find Ancestors

Hi Tracey, Thanks for the kind offer. I´m looking for some info on two sisters. The first is Eleanor Ann Absolom, born 1858 Stoke Row, Oxon. I know where she was in 1871 (Stoke Row) but nothing after. Most likely she married but can´t find anything. Tha second is Mary Elizabeth Absolom, born 1863 Stoke Row, Oxon. Now I know she married James Joseph M Cross in 1882. Any chance you can find them in 1891 and 1901? I think they will be in the Reading(Berkshire) area or still living around Stoke Row. Many thanks Jane

If you find my late father inlaws birth, would be over the moon his name JAMES RICHARD ROWLAND LAWRENCE NEW? DATE OF BIRTH NOV 1908 OR 1910? WILTSHIRE thanks Annabel

Marriage Sep 1907 Absolom Eleanor Ann Reading 2c 888

Annabel, I'm confused. Was he called James New?

Sorry the surname is NEW he had four christian names James Richard Rowland Lawrence which over the years he used in any order its Lawrence James NEW on his death cert have tried all ways to trace his birth but hit a brick wall all the time. He had a brother Tom and a sister Hilda who also I can not trace their birth. Their parent could be William and Mary (nee Potter) NEW can not find a marriage for them ,they ended up living in Stanton St John Oxfordshire thanks Annabel

Annabel, I looked through Every New born Dec qtr 1908-1912 and these were the only possibles I could find... Birth Dec 1912 New Laurence W Marshman Portsmouth.2b 700 Birth Dec 1912 New James C Emerton Hendon.3a 718 Birth Dec 1911 New Richard L Riley Evesham.6c 519

I can't do that early. He might be on FreeBMD. If not, try the IGI. If he's not there, you will need Parish Records for that area.

Hi Tracy I am Looking for the birth and death of John Oliver poss 1849 Horton Kirby Kent according to census Thankyou for yor offer Jane.

Jane, 1. When, roughly, did he die? 2. Have you looked on FreeBMD for his birth? One maybe... Death Jun 1901 Oliver John 50 Maidstone.2a 437 anorth one... Death Dec 1908 Oliver John 57 Westbourne.2b 241 Death Dec 1913 Oliver John 65 Godstone.2a 273

Tracy In the 1841/1851 her name in Georgiana Chantler father George mother Maria Hall - confused. Then she married John Chantler - more confused. Then she married Peter Campbell. I think she was Maria Hall's daughter illegitimate because I found John Chantler's birth cert 1837 father George - so did Georgiana first marry her Stepbrother ?? before Peter. Linda

Frances... George Brough abt 1812 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Head Heanor Derbyshire Sarah Brough abt 1813 West Hallam, Derbyshire, England Wife Heanor Derbyshire Ann Brough abt 1846 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Daughter Heanor Derbyshire John Brough abt 1850 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Son Heanor Derbyshire George Brough abt 1852 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Son Heanor Derbyshire Charlotte Brough abt 1857 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Daughter Heanor Derbyshire William Sterland abt 1858 Heanor, Derbyshire, England Grandson Heanor Derbyshire George Phipps abt 1805 Nottinghamshire, England Boarder Heanor Derbyshire Did you see my last post about Thomas & Sarah?

Lin, so she was Georgiana Chantler, then married another Chantler, then married the Campbell?

There isn't one Frances. The one I gave you was the only one there is. Did they get that cert yet?

Lin, I think I need to start from the beginning with yours... Do you have the details of 1901?

She was Chantler m Chantler. On birth cert of her son she was Chantler nee Hall then Chantler m Campbell. Oh me head!

Hi Tracy Can you try and find Edward Moxom c1877 Bournemouth Dorset for me please. Because of the variations throught our family tree of the spelling of Moxom, I have not had much luck at all. It could be Moxham, Moxon, Moxen any old thing would do back then it would seem. He was married to a lady nee Judd-Chalk from the same area or Isle of Wight area but don't know her christian name. As I have been unable to find his son Edmund, can't get a birth certificate. thanks Lynne

Yes please Tracey, If you can find this one I will be amazed as so far I have just drawn blanks... James Ardrey definitely died before 3 August 1901 as daughters marriage cert lists him as deceased !!! born abt. 1855 Allington Kent (son of Richard Ardrey & Elizabeth Manley). no sign of him on 1891 census or 1901. 3 of his children are in the local workhouse Maidstone Kent! wife living in someone elses house with other 2 children but she is listed as married in 1891. I have no idea if he was in the forces or not. Any trace of him will be helpful. Thanks Annette

Annette, I Think he must be in the army. I can't find any record of him.

Hi Tracy, On a photo of a gravestone I have a death date of March 16th 1914 for Annie Rodgers aged 32 years and her son Frank of 5 days on March 18th 1914. We think it could be either Sheffield or London area. Is it possible to tell me in which district these were recorded in please? Margaret

Hi Tracy, Could you please see if you can find the birth registration of a PHINEAS BODILY in 1911/1912 either in the registration district of Northampton, Towcester or Daventry. Any help you can give is very appreciated. thanks kaz
