Susan Strange (b. 1874) is the daughter of John Strange (b. 1842).  John's parents were Priscilla Bray and Richard Strange and this is the line of my ancestors.

T Dog - i think Priscilla is my g g g grandmother too, through the Strange family - Susan Strange

Trish - I haven't any of that information youve provided, thanks, though I must admit I haven't looked at my family tree for a few years now.

I think that is her, thank you so much, unusual christian name and she definitely married into the Strange family at St Pancras.  I am a direct descendant from her.  What is your link?

again thank you for posting a reply.

The Lighter Side / Re: Spooky experiences while researching

My spooky experience happened about six months ago.  I was sitting in the dining room searching through various records on the internet trying to find out more about my gt gt grandparents - Simeon Bassick and his wife Harriet (Creswell).  After a good couple of hours searching I was talking out loud to myself saying where are you Simeon and Harriet, I just can't find you!

In the corner of the room is a cabinet with some ornaments in and one of the ornaments is a coin set in the middle of a piece of wood, well this coin fell out of the piece of wood onto the shelf spinning - nothing extraordinary there you might think but its very difficult to get the coin into the hole, as its wedged tight, so how did it just fall out?

About half an hour later I went into the kitchen to wash up the dishes from lunch when the lid on one of the saucepans moved and I saw it move.

A good friend of mine who is a psychic said it was Simeon in the dining room and Harriet in the kitchen making themselves known.  Well I wish they would make themselves known as bit more as I'm still searching for more information on them!

Essex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: House address 1901 census lookup please

I was very interested to read your postings, although none of you family names are connected to mine at present, my gt grandmother and her family came from St Osyth, living in Mill Street.  The names connected to me are German(y), Cook, Gilbert, Pooley, Beales, and Gentry.  I still have distant relations living there.

Do contact Phil Hendy of the historical society, i did, and she gave me some great information as she has access to the archives.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / 1871 census look up please
« on: Thursday 24 November 05 21:52 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find the father of Henry and William Bartlett, both born Bethnal Green in 1873 and 1871 respectively.  Their mother's name is Emma.  On the 1881 census Emma is widowed and living with her parents and children at 9 South Street, Bethnal Green.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Elaine
