Helping a friend find out more info on her great grandfather, Frank Samuel Charles PASSANT.     

Frank Passant bc 1881  New York. 
In 1910, Frank’s age computes to a 1884 birth date.
In 1910 and 1930 says his parents from France.
Frank Passant m. Leanna nee Lindsey and they lived in PA --  Newcastle. 
They are in the 1910, 1920 and 1930 census (Butler, PA) 
Thomas L.  b. 1903 is the 1st born child (see below)
Frank died in October 30, 1939 in Pittsburgh

Just this weekend found in a family cedar chest, grandfather’s birth cert (this would be the cert of son, Thomas Lindsey Passant b. 1903 )  which says his father (our subject, Frank Samuel  Passant)  was 22 yrs on April 30, 1903  and shows his birthplace was West Chester, NY.  It's a delayed birth certificate that the son signed as "true and correct".

Most is known after his marriage to Leanna.  However, before that nothing is known about him, his parents etc. 

Have not found Frank S.C. Passant in the 1900 census in NY or PA.
There is a WWI registration filed for him in Alleghany Co., PA
Newspaper archives have various mentions around the Newcastle, PA area for family events, business transactions, deaths of family members  but no further details on Frank found mentioned.  There are mentions of Leanna’s Lindsay side of the family.

There is a mention of Anthony Robert Passant (business transaction in PA) concerning either Frank S.C. or his son Frank S.C. b. 1905.  But no one knows who Anthony Robert is.

Appreciate any insights/information.  Have been looking and looking including various Americanized name derivatives and have found nothing

Thanks!!!

Hello,

Looking for help with the marriage of William FORD b. 1840 in Bucklebury to an Amelia  ? . 
Marriage around 1890-1891 likely to be in Bradfield, Bucklebury Berks

William’s parents are James Ford and Leticia nee Lavel.   
1881 William is unm, occ gardner, living with his elderly parents.  Parents die in 1888 and 1889. 
1891 William in Bucklebury now married to Amelia age 30  b. Gloucester  with “adopted son”  James  W F Ford age 1.
1901 William, Amelia, son James age 11  (transcription is blurred/mis transcribed)  and Richard H 7  Thomas G 2   are still living at The Foundry Cottage,  Bucklebury. 
1911 Amelia is a widow living w/ her 3 sons Near The Foundry Bucklebury
Only likely death on Free BMD 1901-1911 is William Ford age 71 Jun 1910

Only marriage I have found for a William Ford to an Amelia is Dec 1890 to Amelia BAINS in So. Shields, Durham but seems unlikely as Williams never appears to travel far from Bucklebury.

Many thanks!

Hello,  hoping a fresh outlook can help....

Mary King b. 1838 in Middle Claydon (often interchanged w/ Steeple Claydon)  Parents:  William and Sarah King

I have her w/her parents in 1841 and 1851.

Can't find her in 1861.

1871 Castle Street  Warwick Castle St. Mary Parish, Warwickshire
Mary Johnson 34  1837  Middle Clayton, Berkshire [ “Bucks” on actual]   Widow   Servant  - Laundry Maid

Then,   BMD
Mar Qtr 1873
George Henry Grubb  m.  Mary Johnson
District: Warwick  County: Warwickshire 
Volume: 6d  Page: 591

1881  41 Smith Street   St. Nicholas  Warwick

George Henry Grubb 59  b. Warwick   Occ:  Smith (Master)
Mary Grubb 43  b. 1838  Steeple Claydon, Buck   Married   Occupation: Laundress  
George's Children:
Agnes Mary Grubb 26 
Annie Foster Grubb 20 
Edward Walter Grubb
Grandson  John Harris Grubb 10    and
Neice  Mary Edith Blake 7  1874  b. Middle Claydon, Buck   Scholar

The niece Mary Edith Blake is the clincher because this is Mary King youngest sister (Marie King Blake's) child.

BUT really need the Marriage of Mary King to a Mr. Johnson sometime between 1851-1871 and to place Mary in 1861.     

(FYI,  I have a death for George Henry Grubb in 1882 in Warwick.   Mary joins her brother in the US in the 1890''s and dies in the US.)

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
