Occupation Interests / Re: Do you have corkcutter ancestors?
« on: Monday 14 September 20 13:46 BST (UK)  »
I have a corkcutter ancestor (born about 1770) who lived and worked in York until sometime between 1807 and 1811 when the family then moved to Doncaster. He carried on working as a corkcutter in Doncaster and stayed there for at least another 20 years. He then moved back to York with his second wife and was recorded on the 1841 census as a corkcutter.

What I would like to know is why a corkcutter would move from York to Doncaster and then back to York. I'm intrigued.

Many thanks for checking that for me, I really didn't expect you to confirm John's age being 91. I've been doubting it for such a long time.

Cumberland Lookup Requests / John Caux burial at Dean details check request
« on: Tuesday 29 January 19 13:26 GMT (UK)  »
I have the following in a notebook of mine from the 1990s: "6-Feb-1762 John Caux of Righouse aged 91". That was a note about an entry in the Dean burial register but I have doubts about that impressive age of 91. It would be much appreciated if somebody could check the details for me. I'm now a long way from Carlisle.

Thanks,
Paul

Cheers David. I'd presumed those two had died before the census.

Completed Census Requests / (COMPLETED) 1851 census lookup - LAMMAS at Clophill

Hi,

Could somebody please lookup Thomas Lammas (b. abt 1794 Binfield Heath OXF) on the 1851 census for Clophill. He will probably be on the census as Thomas Lomas. The only address I have for him is from 1861 when he and family were living on Church Street. Thanks.

Hi,

Could somebody please lookup Catherine Odell (b. abt 1798 Edmonton) and daughter Susan Odell (b. 1837 Clophill). They were living together at the time, probably on High Street or Back Street. Thanks.

Paul
