« on: Wednesday 04 October 06 10:11 BST (UK)  »
Looking for info on Harriet Redstone born 1811 Quebec Canada.

Her mother would be Margaret Redstone or Buckley.

They returned to England and can be found on the 1841 Census.

No father listed in 1841, Margaret is a widow.

Harriet married before  1837 so no marriage certificate available.

Any help welcome.

Hi can anyone find this lady for me?

Harriet Buckley born 1811 Quebec Canada ( Mother will be Margaret Buckley born 1791 Portsmouth Hampshire UK).

The mothers surname could be any variation on Buckley as it is very hard to read on the census transcripts.

Devon Lookup Requests / DAW(E) - Petrockstow
« on: Friday 01 September 06 10:10 BST (UK)  »
I need help from anyone with parish records for Petrockstow!

I have Thomas Dawe born 1818 Petrockstow but he is married by 1841 and living in East Worlington with his wife.

I did a search for Dawe's in Petrockstow 1841 and Found John (birth 1785) Dawe and his wife Grace (birth 1785) still living there. (also a son John born 1831)

My Thomas Dawe names one child Grace which makes me think that there may be a link. Also named one child John, but john is too common anyway.

Can anyone please verify this for me. Are they mine or not ???

And if they are, who are his siblings?

Thanks in anticipation ;D

« on: Tuesday 29 August 06 18:41 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find info about these two ships which were in service during 1861.

Photos type of ship etc.

Intrepid was in Beirut at the time of the 1861 Census
Encounter was in Yokohama Japan.

Brothers Edwin Griffiths and Henry Grifiiths were on these two boats during 1861, I wanted to find more background on these two ships for my records.

Suggestions or help appreciated. Not very up on the Military I'm afraid.

Devon Lookup Requests / Yealmpton Marriage/Kingcombe
« on: Tuesday 01 August 06 09:31 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to find out who Robert Kingcombe married!

He appears with either Catherine or Caroline (possibly a transcription error) on the 1841/51/61 census.

First child born Yealmpton about 1833.

Two of the children have the middle name of Martin which makes me think she was Catherine Martin but I have no proof.

Help please anyone.... ::)
