closetearl, you need to make a couple more posts (just do smileys on two postings) and then you can do a private message (pm) to Baz who is online at the moment.

The scroll underneath a persons name indicates whether they are online, bright green = online.
Click on a name to see an option to send that person a pm.

Hi closetearl, I'm sorry I don't have any information about Emma Dixey other than she appears on the 1881 census with my gg grandmother Caroline Dixey, I was under the assumption that all of the Dixey's in the workhouse at this time would have been in some way related although that may not be the case. Do you know if there was a connection between Emma and the other Dixey's?
Regards Barry.

Cookham is near Maidenhead.  One of my ancestors was born there. It is a lovely little village on the bank of the river Thames.  There is one church which has modern and old graves. The warden allowed us to have a wander around.

I was in Berkshire record office which incidently is a nightmare to find and there are good records for Cookham there.

Please bear in mind that at the period you are researching many Maidenhead births were recorded as in Cookham registration district (and others in Bray) because Maidenhead itself did not become a registration district until 1896. If someone was born in Maidenhead then that is most probably what would be shown in the census, even if the birth is formally recorded in Cookham registration district. That being the case it would make sense to look carefully at the Dixons found by SandraC.

Hi bit of a shot in the dark but my Dixies mainly come from around Southwark and Bermondsey but I have hit a brickwall with my 4th x grandfather - Levit Dixie who was married to Susannah Jerry in 1810.  Wondered if you had come across him at all in your research.

Theres a burial of Levit Dixie born 1784 for 29 Dec 1850   Bermondsey,​ Surrey,​ England
the levit/susanna marriage and a marriage for Levit Dixie 04 Nov Westminster (also as Fleet) 1751 to Hannah May which I would say is a good guess for his parents or grandparents maybe?

Only just found this, apologies.

Emma Dixey is my Grandmother. She married Albert Edward FREWIN on 13th January 1892 in the Parish Church Crowmarsh Gifford.

She went on to have 5 children and died on 13 November 1921 aged 47 years.
