Staffordshire / how to find relatives on census
« on: Sunday 12 March 06 11:50 GMT (UK)  »
Bekahsgran found my ancestors on a census, but I'm wondering how you do it in case it's spelt wrong, one of the spellings she found them under was Hsley!! I have typed in Illsley, Ilsley, Issley, Isley but how would you come up with Hsley? Is there anything I can type in that will find all kinds of spellings remotely connected to the name? I can't seem to find this one person any earlier than about 1871!! It's really frustrating and I'm wondering if there is an easier way, thanks in advance

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / 1851/61 census Illsley please
« on: Thursday 02 March 06 11:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, thanks to Bekahsgran on here she found a possible match for my Henry Illsley, born 1867 in Staffs, it said Issley on the 1881 and 1871 census but this morning the marriage certificate of Henry came through and it lists his dad as Francis Illsley, which is the name mentioned on the 1871 census so I'm even more convinced it is him! Could someone have a look at the 1851 and 1861 census please? Francis was born in 1845 in Leicestershire, his dad is Robert, but is listed as a widow in 1871 so I can't find Robert's wife. I'm really new to this and not sure how else I can find out Robert's wife, I suppose if I found Francis' birth I could then send off for his certificate..... any help much appreciated, ta x

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Tamworth area

Hi, I have my great great grandad, Henry Illsley, born 1867 unsure where, but he died in 1894 in Tamworth, I got this from a bit of card amongst my grandad's things when he died. I've looked online and can find his death, but not his birth, I found his marriage to Annie Lloyd in 1891 and their son's birth in 1893, I've checked out the census and I think it's the 1891 census shows a Henry Illsley but it says he is Head but also son! I'm really confused, why can't I find out the right one? I've ordered his marriage certificate which will give me his father's name, so I'm hoping I might find out more then but can anyone help at all? Thanks

Warwickshire Lookup Requests / confused, name change

I'm new to these boards, but wondered if anyone can shed any light on something for me. My great great grandma was Annie Lloyd, I have found her on several census, she married Henry Illsley in 1891 but he died in Tamworth in 1894, she then married William Horne in 1895 and they eventually lived in Stockingford in Nuneaton, on the 1901 census she is listed as Annie Horne and I remember my Grandad talking of her and telling me her name was Annie, however my auntie says her grave says Sarah Jane Horne, the birthdate and death is the same and she remembers her dying when she (my aunt) was only 14, would her real name be Sarah Jane and she was called Annie and was able to put this on all the census? Please can anyone help? Thanks
