One Name Studies: T to Z / Re: Vinten family Kent and London photographs
« on: Tuesday 02 June 15 16:19 BST (UK)  »
Hi Joel,

It is very difficult when starting out to know how to find any thing about a family however, I have several Vinten members who came from Maidstone but not one with the name of Frederick B however if you can give me further details for instance rough age, second nae, brothers or sisters  I will try to find him and see if he fits into my tree. I can also send you a print out on the Vintens from Kent.  I notice that on some occasions the name was spelt as Vinton.

Hi Genewizard,

I wonder if we can exchange some information on the Vintens in Maidstone I have an Richard  marrying Sarah, they had Thomas, Sarah, John, Robert, Ambrose, Harriet, Charles, Richard and Mary Ann.  My main interest has been the descendants of Ambrose.

I have a lot more information on all the children if you or anyone else would like to contact me again, we can exchange information.

Hi

thanks so much for your message, at the moment I have not found any Vintens in my tree for the Bridge or Ewell area mine seem to have come from Maidstone and then moved to Chingford Essex.  Is the Ewell you are talking about in Kent as there is one near me in Surrey.

If I find any more information or link I will be in touch and please do the same for me.

kind regards,

Lesley

Norfolk / Martha Elizabeth Self 1876 Lavenham Suffolk
« on: Monday 21 February 11 12:21 GMT (UK)  »
I have posted this on the Norfolk site and also the Suffolk site as I last found her in Garboldisham Norfolk but she was born in Lavensham, Suffolk.

Born 4 Feb 1876 in Lavenham Suffolk to John and Elizabeth Self.  John married Elizabeth Clark on 17 Feb 1871 in Hopton Suffolk, she died in Sept 1879 Lavenham.  In 1881 and 1891 Martha is living with grandparents John and Jemima Self in Garboldisham, Norfolk.

Her father John was in Clitheroe on 1881 Census and then married in 1885.  I have traced this family even obtaining his will when he died in 1933 and certainly no sign of Martha.

Martha seems to have disappeared after the 1891, in 1901 Census Jemima is a widow living with another son.

I wondered if anyone could find a marriage, death or emigration for her.

Thanks

Lesley

Hi genesresearcher,

as in my message from July 07 I have several Vinten members in my tree, as they too were born in Maidstone I feel there must be a connection.  I haven't done much research on this family for a long time so will try and find some more information.

US Completed Requests / Yvone Joan Willebeek Le Mair
« on: Monday 15 September 08 18:30 BST (UK)  »
:)

I wonder if anyone with USA records could find details of this person she was born Yvonne Joan Moody on 6 Dec 1922 in Brixton, London, England.  She travelled to New York in 1950 known as Yvonne Le Meir on passenger list with son Ian. Birth Cert of Ian Willebeek Le Mair born 1946 in Birmingham England gives husband as Martinus Willebeek Le Mair (no sign of marriage record for England).

Details of Martinus Le Mair born 12 Feb 1923 California.

Any details of his parents, their wedding, further boat journeys,  birth of (I think) two more children and any information on US Census would be gratefully received.  I believe they have lived in New York for a long time and she is alive but he died a few years ago.

Thanks again.
