Find Ancestors

Hi Tracy I think I have the answer. If you write the names Daniel and David with a pen in a scrawl like some did on the census, the names look the same. The n can be a v and the e joined to l would be the d in David- hope that makes sense. I dicovered that when I copied your information on a piece of paper, then tried to read it without glasses. Regards Bob.

Hi Tracy, Thank you so much for look up and image kind regards June

Tracey Thankyou so very much I can stop trawling the electoral registers now .Once again many thanks Susan

Susan, Death Dec 1911 Backhouse John age - 66 Blackburn 8e 444 and? Death Dec 1920 Backhouse Ellen age - 73 Blackburn 8e 392

Bob, still can't find him in 1901. I'm not convinced the one I gave you from 1881 is right. I keep going back and forth between different Harrys lol Do you want a Harry Ernest instead? :)

Hi Tracy Thanks a lot, at least I know where they were then. Much apprieciate you time and effort. Kindest regards Bob

Hi Tracey Is it possible to check 2 deaths for me between 1910 and 20 in Blackburn Lancashire for John Backhouse born 1845 and Ellen Backhouse I have lost them so assume they must have died during this period Thankyou Susan

Bob, I /finally/ found the marriage of Harry and Bertha lol Marriages Jun 1908 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hillier Bertha Mary E.Preston 2b 737 LAMBERT Harry E.

Or, there's this one in Massachusetts Arthur, head, 27, England, working at Paper Mill Helen, wife, 20, Massachusetts This Arthur emigrated 1913.

Hi Tracy Here we go! Harry Richard Lambert b1877 married Bertha Hillier date not know but first child born abt 1906- my mother was third b1910 that year on the birth cert Bertha was living in Newington,London. But that doesn't mean a thing as she used to moved houses every2=3 months. He joined the Sussex Regiment for the1914=1918 war but was killed in action in France. His fathers name was Daniel,although having seen your last info could be David. Honestly Tracy, there are so many stories about I coiuld go on and on.

Bob, what information do you have about him? do you have marriage, birth etc?

Thanks Tracy The plot thickens and I'm getting more confused. Still cant nail him to this one. Thanks for your time. Regards Bob

Bob, I'm an idiot. Didn't check 1891 properly lol Lambert, Daniel abt 1849 Brighton, Sussex, England Head Preston Sussex Lambert, Charlale abt 1849 Brighton, Sussex, England Wife Preston Sussex Lambert, Harry abt 1875 Brighton, Sussex, England Son Preston Sussex Does that look familiar? Hmm... in 1881, he's called David... David Lambert abt 1849 Brighton, Sussex, England Head 13 White Cross St, Brighton, Sussex, England Charlotte Lambert abt 1848 Brighton, Sussex, England Wife 13 White Cross St, Brighton, Sussex, England David Lambert abt 1875 Brighton, Sussex, England Son 13 White Cross St, Brighton, Sussex, England No wonder I couldn't find it.

Hi Tracy Sorry didnt come back but had to pop off to work. No I havnt got any details from any census. Even 1881,if you can find anything would be useful. I know he joined the Sussex Regiment 1914 and I believe you had to live in Sussex to do that. But I think,as the story goes, he moved down there for that reason. Could you try Daniel Lambert b1844 perhaps the 1851 onwards. Sorry to be a pain,and thanks again for your time. Regards Bob

Bob, I can't find him in Surrey or Sussex. Do you have any details of the 1881 or 1901 censuses?

Hi Tracy Another one for me please. Harry Richard Lambert b.1877 +1-1. Father Daniel, possibly Sussex or Surrey. Can you try the 1891 census. Thanks a lot for your time. Regards Bob.

Morning Jackie :) Here you go... Birth Mar 1918 Hughes John Newcombe Stockport 8a 81 Birth Sep 1915 Hughes Thomas Newcombe Stockport 8a 103 Birth Mar 1917 Hughes Ellen Hodkinson Stockport.8a 103

Sorry John, I can only do household lookups for the censuses. You need an Electoral Role lookup. I'm not sure where you get these from. Probably the local library.
