Find Ancestors

Hi Laurie, I am looking for a John MOSEDALE who died sometime between 1861-1871 when he dropped off the census records. He would probably be listed under West Derby District of Liverpool, any info you could provide to help me get details for the death certificate would be much appreciated. Thanks.

sorry Laurie, John MOSEDALE was born 1819 or 1820 in Sutton, Lancashire.

Thanks very much for looking. Never mind. Many thanks for taking the time and trouble.

Hello Laurie, Tricky one for you - it's Ireland, need I say more lol. Looking for great grandparents' family in Ballymena area in the '51 census, Racavan parish, villages of Ballygelly (not Ballygally), Buckna or Glenwhirry. Families are James Shaw (ag lab) and son Daniel (born ca 1840-45); and John McPeake (ag lab) and daughter Margaret (roughly same dates as Daniel). Sorry so vague, but it's worth a shot. Many thanks in advance for your kind offer Laurie, Gordon Fairbairn.

im kinda stuck and wondered if you could look up a sarah newbury born 1901 in portsmouth? also the names of her parents?? Thank you so much x

Laurie, Many thanks. Chris

HI LAURIE THANK YOU,I DONT THINK THEY ARE MY CARDERS BUT INTERESTING NETHER THE LESS BRIAN

Do you have 1871 Cardigan census? If you do can you look up Thomas Davies born in 1850 in Llandisilio Gogo, Cardigan and Sarah Jones born 1852 in Penbryn, Cardigan. After parents names on both sides and any brothers and sisters if possible and also marriage date for them. Any info much appreciated - Many thanks!

Wonder if you would be kind enough to have a look for a JOHN BLACKMORE in 1871 Census? Aged 56 (gives age as 66 years in the 1881 census). I have a copy of his marriage certificate to a Mary Ann Howchin in August 1858, which I think may be a second marriage. He also has 3 children by 1881 census, but the eldest is 22 which would make him 12 on the 1871 census, his name is also John. Really struggling to find anything concrete before this 1881 census apart from his marriage certificate 1858. He states that he was born in Gloucestershire, Cheltenham and his wife born in Essex, north Weald? Would really appreciate any help is you can spare the time, Many Thanks, Sheryl

My birth mother found me, her name is Moira Nixon born 1932 in Earl Shilton Leicestershire. My grandparents were Annie Elizabeth Brown (b. 1902)from Leicestershire who married George Nixon from Warwickshire. Annie had a sister called Mary McCoy-Brown who died at 2 yrs old of Diptheria and a brother called Lewis Brown. Then my great grandparents Charlotte (or Sophia) McCoy who was Irish who married Walter Brown. I guess birth year may be around 1875 give or take a few years? Somewhere in there is a William Nixon, father of George Nixon. Charlotte (or Sophia - they were sisters) later left her husband and emmigrated to New Zealand somewhere between 1905 and 1912. Can one get passenger lists and names of boats? Please, I am getting nowhere trying to find my ancestry.....

Hi Paul, The only death I have is for John Mosedale Dec quart 1865, Great Boughton, Cheshire Flintshire vol 8a page 263 Laurie

Hi Deborah, Sorry no luck with Sarah. Laurie

Hi laurie could you please please please have a look for a James FINCH on 1891 - I'm not sure of his wife's name (possibly Elizabeth, but equally possibly Selina!!) There should be a daughter Selina aged about 1 (assuming my other info is correct) - only problem is I'm not sure where I'm looking! It should be in Monmouth, and she should have sisters Sarah and Charlotte, but the 1901 census doesn't narrow it down any 'cos I can't find any of them on there (lots of James's, but none with daughters as named) I am seriously beginning to think this girl just appeared on her wedding day in 1910 and didn't exist prior to that! Any help gratefully appreciated! Thanks Sarah ps if it helps James is listed as 'Collier' on Selina's marriage cert!

Hi Could you please check the 1901 census for a James Rodgers or a Emma Mary Fitchett in the Hamstead, Willesden or Kilburn areas please Thanks Deb

Hi Janine, Not having much luck I'm afraid. These are the only Jones's born Penbryn: Edward 5yrs Martha 7yrs Richard 2yrs Sarah 10yrs All living Sycarth, Shropshire Nothing for Thomas on 1871 England or Wales census' Laurie

Hi Sheryl, Here they are: 1871 living (looks like Malden Rd) Kentish Town, St Pancras, London head John Blackmore 55yrs b Strand, Gloucs occ labourer wife Mary A 53yrs b North Weald, Essex daur Emma 3yrs b Camden, Middlesex son Henry 10yrs b Camden occ (unsure) son John 12yrs b Camden occ (unsure) daur Lydia 6yrs b Camden daur Mary Ann 1yr b Camden Laurie

Hi Sarah in Derby, I'm not having any luck either. Do you have ages of Selina's sisters at the time of the census'? There are a lot of James Collier's and Finch's appearing but none for Monmouth. Where is Monmouth? Do you know how old he might have been? that may help aswell. Laurie

Hi Deborah, 1901: boarder Herbert James Rodgers 26yrs b Waltoker, Cambs living Hampstead, London Sorry nothing for Emma in those areas. There are three on 1901 one 11yrs, 9yrs and 21yrs that are single. The one 21yrs is Lilian Emma b Oxford living St George, London Laurie

I'm sorry Laurie - I haven't a clue about his age, or the sisters - I'm struggling to find any info to be able to even start confirming dates. Monmouth is in Wales - Selina got married in 1910 in Tredegar, but I've a feeling she probably wasn't even born in Wales, 'cos I can't find any trace of her or James. Do you know where Western-Super-Mare is? I have some recollection that one of the sisters moved there, so I'm wondering if the FINCHs are from around that area. I also heard that Charlotte/Lottie was fostered out to another family member, but without knowing her year of birth I don't know if she would even show on 1891 :o(

laurie don;t know if you can help me looking for joshua pickles married a elizabeth bateman in halifax in 1816 thanks chris
