Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / Winterburn, whitby birth 1903

« on: Saturday 28 January 12 12:13 GMT (UK) »

Hi, I am looking for the parents names of Jessie Winterburn born July qtr 1903 in Whitby. I am hoping she is the daughter of Thomas Winterburn and Susanna Gibson Tose.
I cannot find any info on this family after 1901. I have reason to think that they ended up in Aberdeen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Carolyn

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Little Conard census 1861

« on: Saturday 17 December 11 16:47 GMT (UK) »

Hi, I have a strange request. I have been looking for a family who, in 1871 are in Ipswich and are called Fennings, Elizabeth the Head is Unmarried.
Looking for them in 1861 has proved difficult but I found a family that fit on Ancestry with the name Root: They are living in Little Conard.
Alfred 1821 Ipswich
Elizabeth 1828 Ipswich
George 1851 Bedford
Alfred 1854 Cambridge
Sarah Ann 1860 Essex
The names and places of birth fit. The problem is that the image for them is missing so I cannot check the name. Would anyone be kind and check the name for me.
Regards
Carolyn

Suffolk / John MOWLE born c1730 Eye

« on: Monday 03 October 11 15:31 BST (UK) »

Hi,
On Ancestry trees I have found 2 alternative parents for John, neither have any source. On one he is said to have been born in Erwarton Suffolk which is quite a distance from Eye. Another was born in Stoke Ash which is close but the wrong year. Does anyone have access to the Eye records to see if he was actually born there I have a date of 5th Sept 1730.
Thanking you in advance

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Gorleston births

« on: Thursday 26 May 11 11:16 BST (UK) »

Hi,
I have come to a brickwall and need to find the birth of Robert Stanton born around 1742 (according to the settlement certificate that I have for him and his wife Miriam Riggs). Gorleston does not seem to have been documented online until 1891 so I wondered if there is any kind person out there who could look it up for me.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Photo from a glass plate Date and if possible restoration please

« on: Saturday 14 May 11 09:43 BST (UK) »

Hi,
I believe this photo to be of two brothers born around 1853. The glass plate was cracked and this is an emailed image which was scanned. It appears to have been taken in a church? Possibly a wedding, I don´t know.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Photo date please

« on: Friday 13 May 11 21:09 BST (UK) »

Hi
My Mother had this photo on her wall as long as I remember, She said it was my 3xGt Grandmother and was taken in 1894 when she was 97 years old. I have since found that my ancestor actually died in 1846 at the age of 59.
I have no idea who she is. I know it was taken in Hales Norfolk which was rural, and in fact was the area that my ancestors lived in. If I could date the photo it would be a help.
A lovely picture, I think.

Suffolk / CRAIGE Family, Southwold

« on: Friday 25 March 11 16:43 GMT (UK) »

Hi,
I have found the birth of William Cragie (sometimes Craggie) christened 29th April 1798 in Southwold. The parents are John and Mary Nethlin. I can find no Mary of this name and am inclined to think it is Neslen but have no proof as I have no Marriage record to check against. Does anyone have access to the Southwold births and can have a look at her surname for me, also any other children born to these parents.
Thank you
Carolyn

Norfolk / looking for Norton Subcourse

Hi, does anyone know where I can find the records for Norton Subcourse on the Family search parish records for Norfolk. I think it may be Norwich but there are lots of Parishes there.

Suffolk / Gisleham parish records

« on: Friday 15 October 10 12:02 BST (UK) »

Hi, does anyone have access to the Gisleham records or know of a site that has them. I am looking for info on the Armes family. Specifically Sarah born 1769 and her ancestors. Her father was Edward and he married Ann Fairweather Jan 10 1766. Sarah had an illegitimate child, William born 1790, christened in Kessingland which is all I can find about the family.
Thanks
Carolyn
