Canada / Norman WAY born Toronto
« on: Sunday 11 December 11 20:33 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Everyone,

I have:

Susan Victoria WAY born 06/07/1887 Toronto West District, Ontario, Canada
Norman WAY born 02/11/1891 Toronto West District, Ontario, Canada
Both being the children of Samuel Sidney WAY and Martha WAY (nee MANORGAN)

Norman's second marriage was to Julia Pearl JACKSON 30/06/1923

They had a son Stanley WAY born c1924.

Norman, Julia and Stanley can be found on the 1930 New York (Bronx) census ...... then nothing.

Can someone please assist me to take this family forward?

Best wishes,
Derek WAY

Channel Islands Lookup Requests / Jersey look ups
« on: Friday 24 September 10 17:12 BST (UK)  »
Can SKS help me please?
I am looking for the marriage of Elias WAY born 1815 Tolpuddle Dorset to possibly Elizabeth Read SKINNER circa 1865
Also the baptism of James WAY born circa 1869 Jersey.

Can someone tell me. When a spinster gets married I'm told she keeps her maiden name, was that true, is that true now? Does she BOTH maiden name and husbands name?

In Tolpuddle church is a memorial to a Caroline Way Smith of Guernsey. Knowing she was baptised Caroline Way in Tolpuddle does is necessaryily mean she married a Smith on Jersey or Guernsey?

Best wishes,
Derek

Lancashire / DEARDENs in Haydock
« on: Tuesday 10 August 10 22:06 BST (UK)  »
I am helping an old couple with their family tree. They thought their ancestors were Londoners but I have traced them to Haydock in Lancashire. Is anyone researching DEARDENs there? Is there a working Rootsweb Lancashire mailing list?

Best wishes,

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / SPARROW Southsea/Portsea
« on: Friday 06 August 10 20:03 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

Anyone researching SPARROW in Hampshire at all?

I have a William Charles SPARROW born c1825 Southsea Hampshire, son of Charles SPARROW (No details known as yet) & UNKNOWN

Another researcher has James SPARROW born 1830 Portsea Hampshire, son of Charles SPARROW and Ann UNKNOWN

Distance Southsea to Portsea = 1.6 miles!

As my William joined the Royal Marines could be the reason I cannot find him on the 1841 census .... either that or I'm blind!

I think the Charles SPARROW is one and the same but cannot prove it.

Other than visit the Hampshire Archives and try and find baptisms etc .... Anyone got any ideas to help me on this?

Best Wishes,
Derek

On her marriage certificate it is stated she is a builder’s daughter and witnesses at the marriage were Nicholas Creerly, Amelia Creerly and Denis Maher.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Algernon William WAY
« on: Saturday 13 June 09 08:46 BST (UK)  »
Hi Everyone,
I hope SKS can help. I am tracking the above person who would be a close cousin. The WAY family split in two (For whatever reasons) and we have lost contact with the 'other side'.

Algernon was born 8/10/1904 in Battersea London and married twice. His first wife was Kate (Kit) Lilian MOORE (Married 1926) with whom he had at least one daughter. I/we know nothing of their children. His second wife was Elsie May BLAKE who he married late in life. Algernon died 18/4/1996 in Basingstoke Hospice.

Could SKS please visit the library/record office to see if there is an obituary please?

Does anyone know of Algernon or Elsie's family and can make contact?

Best Wishes,
Derek WAY
