Find Ancestors

Hi Lorraine,

Thanks so much for the offer, it is much appreciated.

I believe this family emigrated around 1880 - 1882 I've found the husband in 1910 with two children and no wife although it states he was married, but I don't know what happened to his wife or the other children.

The emigrated to Pennsylvania USA

Cornelius Baker b 1850 Staffordshire Uk
Lydia Baker b 1850 Wales, UK
Sarah Baker b 1870 Wales UK
Arthur Baker b 1872 Wales UK
Mary A Baker b 1874 Wales UK
Harriet B 1880 Sussex UK

In 1910 there are another two children, Edward and Bessie; both born Pennsylvania USA.

Anything you can find would be brilliant.

Thanks a lot, Regards, LOu

Re TILLIM
Thank you for looking-much appreciated !

Hello Loraine, Many thanks for your efforts, much appreciated. It looks as though the info about Frank Heselton will be correct. I (his niece) was led by my sister to believe that he was in England and served in the first world war. But as our mother would not know much about her brother if this corrrect, she being born 1900, I think my sister has bveen having a dream (not unusual).
As for Asa Robinson all we know is hearsay from relatives. He was definitely in England in 1901. They thought he had married, not found a Marriage in England but said they got letters from Canada. We wonder if he went to America first, then moved over the border.


Regards, Bernard & Kathleen

Hi Lorraine,

Thanks very much. The info you have given has helped a lot. I've discovered it co-incides with his father's death.

You said you'd have another look for me, which I appreciate very much.

Could I also ask for another look up. With the info you have given me I was wondering if his other son would have returned for his burial. I don't know whether your offer would cover this area , so don't worry if it doesn't it is a long shot.

William Henry Baker b 1857 India returning to England in 1897 / 1898, he might have his wife and children with him. Her name was Helena born in Singapore. They may have resided in Bedforshire. I

Thanks again, it is really apprecaited.

Regards, Lou

Hi Lorraine,
are you able to check the US census for me please? I have a Mark Goldstein who was born in Poland around 1870. He emigrated to the US in 1912 - I have seen him on a ships list. He went to New York, but after that I don't know where. It is possible he went on to Canada. He was married to Ethel (nee Blyth).
Thanks,
Estelle

i cant find him on a later census do you know ethels date of birth and where she was born

lorraie

Hi Lorraine, that's really useful. Ethel was born Ethel Eliza Blyth in 1880 in Southampton. She married Mark in 1904. Mark is the one you mention in the ships list, but I have no idea what happened to Ethel.
Thanks for all your help.
Estelle

Hi Lorraine,

Could you please have a look in London Baptism Records for me?

I'm looking for children of Arthur and Emily James baptised in the Peckham/Camberwell area between 1898 and 1906. The first two children found should be Stanley Arthur (c1899) and Ethel Mary (c1900). Father's Occupation: Train Driver. Address in 1901: 61 Kimpton Road, Camberwell, London (Surrey).

Many thanks, Karen

(Her sister's children were baptised at St Andrew's, Stockwell Green, in case that helps!)

Hi Lorraine

Before I ask for any names can I just ask if you have any records for Allegheny in Pennsylvania at all, or do you have a database that covers all of that state?

Thanks

Ben
