Somerset Lookup Requests / Place:Somerton surname:Ashley
« on: Tuesday 16 January 07 13:51 GMT (UK)  »
Please can any one help? ::)

My 3rd Great grandfather is a VILE ASHLEY born:1818/1825 Somerton (obviously dates vary with census's & marriage cert)
who I have found in the 1861,1871,1881, & his death in 1889.

according to his marriage certificate in 1853 Somerton, his father is ROBERT ASHLEY who is a labourer

I was wondering if anyone would possibly try & locate a possible VILE & ROBERT in the 1841 & or 1851

and/or Somerton's Parish Records.

the only other confusing factor is that VILE's eldest daughter
(my 2nd Great Grandmother) MARY JANE ASHLEY b:1855 is on the 1861 census with her maternal Grandparents & states her birthplace as IRELAND (I lose her in 1871) then she gets married & in 1901 she states IRELAND as her birthplace, yet all her siblings have theirs as SOMERTON

Many thanks

Family History Beginners Board / Falkland Island

Hi
I was wondering if anyone could possibly help me.
 
My Cousins father wants to research his family history.
 
He knows that his Grandfather was a Leslie John Johnson born 1904 Hill Cove, Falkland Islands.
The fathers name is Edward Johnson, mothers name Elizabeth (nee White) born in Watergore, Somerset.
 
He would like to obtain a copy of Leslie's birth certificate & feels it maybe registered in Port Stanley, & also details of Edward ie: his date of birth, along with parents names.
 
As he is not on the internet, is there any way he could send of for the above information or is there a website that I may be able to research the information for him.
 
Thank you for your time

Maria

Devon / Martha GUPPY mother of Robert b1822
« on: Sunday 06 February 05 02:15 GMT (UK)  »
Have hit a brickwall   ???

I have a Martha Guppy listed as mother for a Robert Guppy:

Vital records index FHL Film 1279500
Gender:Male
Christening date: 31 march 1822
Recorded in: Hawkchurch, Dorset
Mother: Martha

after contacting the OPC for Hawkchurch, she was able to determine that Martha was an unmarried mother, but could not locate any record of Marthas birth,marriage, death etc.

So if anyone has come across this Martha born early 1800's (presumably)
Any info would be much appreciated 
Thanks   ;D
