Hello Sharon Here you go, a lot to digest, but it looks like Jacob and Harriet were married twice. Have managed to trace Jacob back to 1861 showing his parents, but cant trace Harriet, if you apply for their marriage it should give their father's names and also should show Harriet's other surnames Hope it helps Regards Sue Jacob SMITH Record Type: Births Quarter: September Year: 1845 District: Tendring County: Essex Volume: 12 Page: 262 1901 Census RG13/1694 Folio 10 Page 11 594 Chapel Road, Beaumont with Moze, Essex (District of Tendering) Jacob Smith, Head, Married, 55, Farm Labourer, b.

Hi Susan, Can you please do a death look-up fo me. Father and son. Arthur Lewsley b. 1855. Pancras., Middlesex. He was still alive in 1900 but deceased in 1921. Also if you happen to come across a date of death for a George B. Lewsley, b. 1880, Islington it would be appreciated. B. could possibly stand for Beaumont as his mother was Louisa Beaumont. 'Fraid I have no other info on this one. He was recorded on 1891 census as living 7 Thorpdale Rd, Islington but I couldn't find him on 1901 census. Your help is muchly appreciated. Lynne

Thankyou Susan for the information on Amos Charles.

Hi Sue, Can you possibly find a William and Jane Yardley or Eardley on the 61 for me. I believe they should be in the Stone district of Staffordshire. William was born about 1799 in Norbury staffs. Many thanks. Julie

Hi Susan Thank you very much for taking the trouble to find Sylvia Careless on the 1901 census, Darlaston, very much appreciated! Ann (Dorothy)

Dear Sue, Thank you so much for trying to find my Rickard/Legge ancestors earlier. I'm finding it a real challenge getting anywhere with their trace. The only real information comes from my grandmothers birth certificate (she was born in Australia in 1900) which states her father's name as being Charles Rickard age 28yrs a fruit classer born in London and her mother being Isabella Cavanagh age 21yrs born in NSW Australia. From that information I obtained Charles and Isabella's wedding certificate which states Charles's (who states his age as 27yrs when he married in Sydney in 1896) parents were Charles Rickard who was a miner and Louisa Legge. Because Charles jnr was born in London (somewhere between 1869 and 1872) I'm assuming his parents came from London too. But I'm aware this may not be the case at all. Do you suggest that I trace a name variant like 'Richard' instead of 'Rickard' or do you think that would be a waste of time? Because I live in Australia and am fairly new to this I have no idea where to go from here. Sincere thanks for trying to find Charles and Louisa. Karen.
