Australia / William James THOMAS
« on: Tuesday 18 July 17 17:04 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone be able to do a lookup for me in Electoral Rolls for NSW between 1929&1932 ?
It's a long shot but I'd really love to know where my Grandparents lived in Australia so that I could visit next time I'm in Australia.
My Grandparents were married at St.James Church in Sydney in 1932 but no street address is given on the marriage certificate.
My Mum was born in Corrimalon19/1/1932 but I don't have a copy of her birth certificate and ( due to the 100 year rule) don't think that anyone would be able to look that up for me.
If any help my Grandfather was from South Wales and my Grandmother Mary was from Hamilton in Scotland ( maiden name Archibald)

Australia / Look up for Caroline Mabel Thomas born 1932
« on: Monday 08 September 14 22:26 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone be able to look up a Birth
Certificate for my Mother Caroline Mabel
Thomas born 19th January 1932?
Her parents were Mary ( nee Archibald) and
William James Thomas.
I believe she may have been born in Corrimal and
that her parents worked for James Packer
the Father of Kerry Packer.
What I'm really most interested in is an address
as I'm coming to Australia in November from the UK
and I'd love to be able to go to where my Mum
was born.
Hoping someone can help me with this !!

« on: Friday 12 April 13 16:48 BST (UK)  »
Would anybody be able to do a lookup for
a death certificate for this person in 1908
in Merthyr Tydfil please?
His parents were Mabel ( nee Davies)
andJames Lloyd Thomas possibly of 4 Bank
Street Merthyr Tydfil.
Apparently he died as a result of a road accident
so any other information e.g. Newspaper
Reports would also be great.

Library and FHS Lookups / Howells family of Hay and Swan Hotel
« on: Friday 12 April 13 12:05 BST (UK)  »
Looking for any information or anyone willing
to look up information regarding Mary
and Emily Howells.
I have a copy of 1881 census which shows
Mary Howells as hotel keeper at Swan Hotel
Hay Brecknockshire aged 60 and Emily
aged 26.
I would love to learn more about the family's
ownership ? of the Swan or maybe they
were just employed there ?
Any help would be great especially a look up
of 1871 census to see if they were there then.

Somerset / BRAINE family of Queen Camel.
« on: Monday 23 August 10 15:11 BST (UK)  »
 :would anyone be willing to do a look up for me for Benjamin Braine - b. 1792 in Queen Camel ?
I have a marriage record for him for 1812 when he married Jane Horsey and census records for 1841- 1871 but have been unable to find a birth record for either him or his son Hugh (b. 1816) would love to find parents and trace the family further back. According to family lore an ancestor fought alongside the Duke of Monmouth in the 1685 rebellion and I would love to know more about this. Does anyone know whether the museum in Taunton has lists ?

Monmouthshire Lookup Requests / Thomas Family Grosfaen.
« on: Tuesday 13 July 10 14:38 BST (UK)  »
Wonder whether anyone could do a lookup on Electoral Register for 1910- 1920 for me ?
I'm looking for James Lloyd Thomas and his wife Mabel believed to be living at 7 Grosfaen Terrace Bargoed during this time period - am especially interested in date and place of birth for Mabel.
1911 census merely states that she was born in Cardiganshire but no place name is given .
Hope someone can shed some light on this !!
Heather.

Somerset / Benjamin BRAINE Queen Camel
« on: Sunday 11 July 10 17:08 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone be able to help me with a lookup for this person ?
Benjamin Braine was born 1792 in Queen Camel - can't find any record of parents as yet.
He married Jane Horsey in 1812 at Chilton Cantelo and is listed as living at West Camel.
Census of 1841 shows him living in Queen Camel with various children and his occupation as Schoolmaster.
By 1851 He appears to have changed his occupation to that of Rule (Rate?) collector still at Queen Camel.
In 1861 and 1871 He appears to be living with his daughter Louisa Vincent and her husband in Salisbury and later Alderbury where he dies in 1875.
It would be wonderful if I could find out who his parents were and trace the Family even further back and also any records from Queen Camel School.

Monmouthshire Lookup Requests / Benjamin Braine
« on: Thursday 08 July 10 16:00 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone be able to do a lookup for me regarding Benjamin Braine ?
He was born in 1844 in Queen Camel Somerset but by 1871 he had moved to Aberstryth (?)
with his wife Elizabeth and daughter Lucy.
The 1881 Census shows the family living at 4 Butchers Court Bedwellty with several children.
By 1891 Elizabeth appears to have remarried to George Paul and is living at 9 Sebastopol Merthyr Tydfil so Benjamin must have died between 1881 and 1883.
I've tried in vain to find anything on this and would be most grateful for anything anyone could find.
Many Thanks
Heather Adams.
