Antrim / Re: Ballymoney, Antrim, N. Ireland - Campbell - Lamont
« on: Monday 09 October 06 21:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi Chris:

I did look at the Ballymoney site quite awhile ago but alas I still have not been able to find my Campbell/Lamont family in Ireland (or Scotland).  I've had a bit of a dry spell so am hoping that when I pick it up again, there may be more on the web.

If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears.  Thanks for your interest and your email!  Sharron

Norfolk Lookup Requests / Re: 1851 Census for Norfolk
« on: Sunday 28 August 05 00:14 BST (UK)  »
I have the 1861 census showing the individuals plus two other sons, Robert  born aprox 1855 and Thomas born approx 1857.  The shows the Registration District as West Ham; the Sub District and Parish , Walthamstow and the Ecclesiastical District, St. James.

I also have the 1841 Census showing A David married to Caroline with 3 daughters being Emily, Emma and Harriett aged 1 month.  This census shows its for the parish of Moulton (Molton)

The 2 families seem to be the same and I'm hoping the 1851 census will confirm that fact.

Thanks,

Thank you so much for your email.  I actually came across this census through the 1837 online.com site and it's a very good bet this is the person I am looking for.

I have slowed my research for the summer so haven't had a chance to verify my information.

Thanks again, Sharron

Hi Angela & Casalguidi

Yes it is a mystery!  It might very well be spelled be Moulton - the information was taken  by someone doing the census in Kent, they may not have know how to spell it... I think that's a good possibility.  I've found numerous misspellings of place and individual's name over the course of my research.

I will continue the search for information that may help to unravel this piece of the puzzel.

Appreciate your help.

Regards, Sharron

Hi Angela:

Thank you for taking the time to research this!  When I wrote my request, I had viewed the 1871 written census record and the name of the town wasn't clear.  But I have since found the 1881 census  and other information which clearly shows Hariett's birth place as Molton, Norfolk, England or simply Norfolk, England.

I'm at a bit of a loss unfortunately... I have tried to locate a Molton, Norfolk, England as well but without success.  I don't know what to think.

Thanks for your help in any case.  Regards, Sharron

Antrim / Ballymoney, Antrim, N. Ireland - Campbell - Lamont
« on: Sunday 13 March 05 19:53 GMT (UK)  »
Hello:

I am researching ancestors from N Ireland as follows:
Charles Campbell - b. abt 1781 married to
Margaret Lamon(t)

They emigrated to Canada in 1830 bringing 7 children with them.

Children born in Ireland are:  Andrew, John, Mary, James, Grace, Charles & Martha.

According to the Commemorative Biographical Record of Kent County Ontario Canada, Charles was of Scottish ancestry but a native of Northern Ireland where he grew up and married.

Any information or offer of volunteer research of this family would be greatly appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.  Sharron (Toronto, Canada)

Hi All:

I am new to this forum and am looking for info on an ancestor from Norfolk, Molton, England.

Harriet Smith (about as common a name as you can get it seems!)

I found her on the 1871 and 1881 census records of Woolwich, Kent - info as follows:

Age in 1881 - 39 (born abt 1842)
From Molton, Norfolk, England

Married to John Stark abt 1863 (possibly earlier).

I appreciate any information that might be provided.

Sharron (Toronto, Canada)
