Lancashire Lookup Requests / Possible headstone at St Paul, Skelmersdale
« on: Friday 07 April 17 10:21 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone.

I was just wondering if it is possible, if anyone may be visiting said church, if they could possibly look to see if there is a headstone for Edward & Elllen Ashcroft. Unfortunately I live in Norwich and can't visit :(

Edward died 01 Jun 1950 and was buried 05 Jun 1950, and Ellen died 29 Dec 1955 and was buried 31 Dec 1955. On their burial records on Ancestry, there is the number '1018' in a circle beside their records, I'm assuming this could possibly refer to their burial plot? I'm not sure.

Thank you :)

Norfolk / Agatha Olley, Skeyton
« on: Friday 06 January 17 17:55 GMT (UK)  »
Hello everyone.

I'm trying to find records for my ancestor Agatha Olley.

She was born in 1870 in Skeyton to James William Olley & Frances Whitwood. In 1871 she is living with her parents in Skeyton, then again in 1881 but the family have moved to Banningham.

After that she dissappears.

I don't know if I've been looking to hard and missed something obvious  ::) It would be great to see if a fresh pair of eyes can spot something

Thank you

Hi guys.

Would I be right in thinking that the second from bottom line says "Progressing in spite of treatment" ?

Thanks in advance.

Norfolk / Lunacy Asylum, Colney?
« on: Tuesday 19 January 16 20:29 GMT (UK)  »
Hello.

I have recently come across a lunacy asylum record for my relation, Rose Murrell.  It says the following ...

Name: Rose Murell
Gender: Female
Admission Date: 4 Jan 1879
Institution: Colney
Intitution Place: Norfolk, England
Death Date: 13 Feb 1909
Death Place: Norfolk, England

Does anyone know where the Colney Institution was/is? I've tried to google it but didn't get anywhere.

I know she was living in Hellesdon, so I wonder if she may of died in Hellesdon Hospital?

Thank you.

I've found a marriage via Ancestry for a Bridget Landemore to a "Henry Shar..." on 09 Feb 1730, in Ixworth. I was wondering if anyone could please shed some light on what his surname is meant to be.

Thank you :)

Hello.

I'm trying to find the death of Elias Barker, born 1825 in Pemberton. I've found him up until the 1901 Census where he is living in Leigh. His name was transcribed as 'Louis' on his marriage in 1849.

Thank you

Norfolk Lookup Requests / James Bushell 1802 Norwich
« on: Friday 19 June 15 20:48 BST (UK)  »
Hello.

I'm trying to find the baptism of James Bushell. He was born in Norwich around 1802. He married Susanna Sadler 4 Jun 1821 at St Martin at Oak, Norwich, and died in St Faiths Workhouse 22 Mar 1850.

My mum has been doing her family tree for decades, I've only recently started looking at her side of the tree. She has put on their that his parents were James Bushell and Mary Daniels, she said that my granddad when he was alive found this information, but she's not sure where.

Also, we can't find anything for his father James Bushell, born in Norwich around 1779. He married Mary Daniels in 1802, and died in Ringland, 1854.

Hope that all makes sense.

Here's hoping a fresh pair of eyes might be able to help!

Thanks in advance :)

Kirsty
