London and Middlesex / Re: Thomas John Volan
« on: Tuesday 24 January 23 16:56 GMT (UK) »
Thank you so much Christine.
I see the 1901 entry now and it is them - Thomas is a tramcar driver.
Strange that Ellen's family are mentioned and not Thomas's.
I have spent so much on certificates I was hoping to not to have to get another, but i think you're right.
Thank you again

London and Middlesex / Thomas John Volan

I am trying to find more about Thomas John Volan who married Ellen Bridgman in 1875 at Pancras, he and Ellen are shown on the 1881 census at St. Pancras Thomas gives his birthplace as Leeds are their ages are shown as 37/34
In 1891 Thomas is again stating his birthplace was Leeds, but their ages are now shown as 58/42
I can't find Thomas anywhere before his marriage, nor can I find him after the 1891 census.
Ellen died in 1909
I think it likely Thomas's surname had different spellings i e There are two Thomas Fallon's born at Leeds in 1844, mothers maiden names shown as Glinn and O'Brien, but I can't see marriages
I suppose it's possible the family came to England from Ireland due to the potato famine
I haven't as yet sent for the marriage certificate which hopefully would show Thomas's fathers Christian name, is there anywhere online I can get that information from.
Any advise/ ideas would be most welcome

Thank you so much Trish.
It certainly seems likely that William and Ann were Harriet's parents.
When writing up the tree I will insert their names with a note that they are likely but not proven.
I really appreciate your help

Staffordshire / Harriet Kemp
« on: Monday 26 December 22 15:22 GMT (UK) »
George Barlow married Harriet Kemp on 7th June 1829 at Hanley, Stoke on Trent.
From the 1851 census Harriet gives her birthplace as Fenton, and her year of birth c1808
Harriet died in 1857 aged 49 at Burslem which fits in with birth year being 1808.
I can't find a marriage record that shows her father's name nor can I find a relevant birth/baptism.
Is there any way I can find out who her parents were?

I can find the marriage record for Thomas Rigby on 11th Nov 1837 at St. John's Hanley, to Elizabeth Fox.
Thomas is shown as full age, his residence place Lichfield St, Shelton and his father as John Rigby.
I can't find Thomas and Elizabeth in the 1841 census nor can I find a record of baptism of Thomas
From the 1851 and 1861 census Thomas states his birthplace as Newcastle under Lyme, and from his age he was born c1817.
The only baptism in time scale and region is on 1st Jan 1817 at St. Giles Newcastle u Lyme but that is to William Rigby not John
Thomas died aged 52 in 1868 N u L
I have an Ancestry subscription and I have looked on Freereg and Family search without success, are there any other sites where I might find his birth/baptism record?
How can I find them in 1841 ?
Thank you
