Need Help looking up Ancestors
« on: Saturday 28 April 18 07:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am new to this group/forum and I was sent here by a fellow on Geni.com. I would like to ask for any insight that could help me, to include if anyone knows of my family or has them on their tree.

The information I do have is as,

I need help finding the ancestors for my great great grandfather George, born in 1847, married to a Hannah Smith, originally born Brooks. George's, father Henry was born in 1813 and married to Sarah born in 1821, his father John born unknown, married Mary. Most of what we have is my great great grandfather George being in Lancashire. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if you have a shared tree or family that would be amazing. Thank You for your time. Some records indicate Bickerstaffe.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
What is George's last name?
I am Australian, from all the lands I come (my ancestors, at least!)

Pine/Pyne, Dowdeswell, Kempster, Sando/Sandoe/Sandow, Nancarrow, Hounslow, Youatt, Richardson, Jarmyn, Oxlade, Coad, Kelsey, Crampton, Lindner, Pittaway, and too many others to name.
Devon, Dorset, Gloucs, Cornwall, Warwickshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire, Wilts, Germany, Sweden, and of course London, to name a few.

This site https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

shows John and George Owen with mother’s maiden name of Norcott. Is that right?

It is best if you post names known etc as you seem to know Henry’s parents.

Mary Ann b.1843, Mary b.1848, John b.1844, and George b.1847. George Married Hannah b.1846 and they had John b.1869 and Isabella. John married Emma Rose (born Bourdy) and had Charles, Viola, and Walter-My grandfather.

Unfortunately, I am unsure past my grandfather Henry. As well I do not know if Norcott is the maiden name of anyone in my family.
