Surrey Completed Look up Requests / William MAY of Lambeth Help
« on: Monday 02 July 07 13:01 BST (UK)  »
Hi all

I have got a bit stuck and rquire some assistance in where to go next.

I have a family living in Lambeth in the 1841, 51 and 61 census.  my line is William May born 1835 to a William and Jane, there are many children but i am unable to find Janes maiden name, i have searched all the marriages that i can and nothing apart from maybe a Jane Furneaux.  I have tried to locate the birth cert for any of the other children but not being great maybe i am doing it wrong.  Thing is in the 51 and 61 census Jane May was a widow but we can not find his death cert either, odd.

Details of children of William and Jane May are

Sarah    Born around 1828   1841 Census
Mary   Born around  1832   “
James   Born around 1831   “
William   Born around 1835   “
Jane   Born around 1839   “
Nancy    Born around 1848   1851 Census
Eliza but Elizabeth on 1861 Census   Born around 1847   “

All children were born in lambeth (according to census returns)

Ahhh driving me mad

Thanks for any help

« on: Thursday 23 March 06 10:13 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I have grind to a halt on part of my tree and a bit stucik, so i was wondering if anyone could help me.

I have a birth of a William May born 1835 to a William and Jane May in Lambeth.  I have picked up a Jane May in 51 and 61 census returns with what looks like is our William (dates match up and Job matches up).  However i cant prove this.  On this census return it says that Jane also had other chilren who i should be able to look up their brith certs, i cant find them anywhere.

Possible children are:
Eliza May born in lambeth 1849 (from census renturn got age) - found her death i think so i know she exists.
Nancy May born 1850 (again approx age from census return)

I am quite happy to order any certificate necessary but just cant find it, any help would really be appreciated.

Hi hope you can help.

I am looking for a John Brentnall living in Ashton under Lyne, i think he died about 1856 at sea so can not pick him up in the 1861 census.  Can you look up him in 1851, his wife was called Ruth, by then not sure if any children.

Any help would be much appreciated

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Lambeth 1851 or Look up - MAY
« on: Wednesday 16 March 05 15:55 GMT (UK)  »
Hi having great problems the MAY family in Lambeth, a common name it seems.

i am after a William May married to a Jane. I know that they had one son (called william) in 1835 in Lambeth, tracked him down no probs,just his mother and father are the problem (william and jane).

I have found a Jane May widowed in the 1861 census and also found a william May who died in 1859, i have yet to tie them together.  Would be great if anyone could look up 1851 to see if William and jane were living together as they should have been (in lambeth).  Jane was born on Southwark approx 1813 therefore in 1851 she would ahve been 37 or so (if it is the same one)

Hope that makes sense, thank you in advance this has been a great problem thus far but i know you clever lot can help.

Regards

Berkshire / Joyce Family - Thatcham
« on: Thursday 17 February 05 10:10 GMT (UK)  »
HI, new to this site, brilliant by the way.

I am after some info on the Joyce family who lived and worded in Thatcham in the early to late 1800's (1800 - approx 18690).

I was wondering if there were any other Joyce's out there with some info, here is some info i have gathered so far.

John Joyce (1780) Married Amy ? had Aaron and william in Bucklebury
Aaron Joyce (1805) married harreit  ? had 6 children, my line is Thomas who married Sarah Hayward (both born in thatcham)

Anyway if anyone can shed some info on this that would be great, i do not know berkshire very well so not sure where these places are, planning a visit soon.

Regards

Matthew JOYCE
