Hi All,

I am looking for any UK information about Michal/Michael Peter Cichon born 24 January 1915 Lapuszka Wielka Poland.

I have his WWII refugee/displaced person records from Arolsen Archive in Germany detailing his forced farm labour work in Schwabach and placement in refugee DP camps ending at Amberg and his subsequent resettlement to England in May 1948.

I know he married Nora Tromans at Kidderminster in 1953 (freeBMD has the entries as Cichon/Thomas and Tromans/Cichon and verified from Nora’s 1939 Register entry showing change of name from Tromans to Cichon).

Michael dies at Bristol in May 1987 aged 72 and Nora dies at Weston super Mare in February 2005 aged 85.

I haven’t been able to identify any children being registered, any electoral register entries (other than for Nora Cichon at Kidderminster 1955-7 and at Weston super Mare 2003-4, any newspaper references, any UK immigration paperwork, any naturalization details, or any probate entries for either of them.

Your help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

Hi All,

Eliza Hitchcock was baptised 7 March 1841 somewhere in Essex to Henry Hitchcock and Martha Lawrence; familysearch has this indexed as Eliza Hicthcock while Ancestry has it indexed as Eliza Hidneack but neither shows the actual place in Essex.

Firstly, I would like to know where this baptism took place as I am trying to link this Eliza Hitchcock to the one who married Joseph Gillam at St Pancras 22 Dec 1867 giving her father as Henry deceased.  She gives her place of birth in subsequent census as Braintree Essex.  And she is buried 5 March 1906 at the age of 65.

And secondly, I would like to know anything that can be found about Henry and Martha as this is the only reference to them that I can find at present anywhere.

Many thanks, Mirl

Hi All,

I am looking for any information regarding this man who has the same name and birth year as a person in my tree.

His wife would be Frances Emma Rebecca Kerry and they married March 1897 in Chelsea.  She says she is 20 when married but is actually 24 being born 1873.  I cannot locate any children born in UK.

I have Frances Partridge in 1901 and 1911 but Charles is not with her in either, nor can I find either of them after that.

Regards, Mirl.

Hi All,

Looking for the St Kilda address of Alfred Plumpton for the years 1879-1882 and the Fitzroy address for the years 1886-1890.

Not sure where he may have been 1883-1885.

Thanks, Mirl
