Other Countries / Miller - Nairobi - 1949

« on: Saturday 12 May 18 05:57 BST (UK) »

Hello,

I am seeking details about the death and marriage of Benjamin Baskerville Miller (born 1910 Kidderminster England). He served in Kenya during WW2 and returned to marry/live with a local woman of which I have no further details. I located a notice in a Nairobi Government Gazette declaring him an Inspector of Works for the Dept of Agriculture (D.A.R.A.) 18/03/49.

Cumberland / Ancient HARRISSON line

« on: Sunday 12 February 17 21:07 GMT (UK) »

Dear Forum,

I have looked on this forum and cannot see any posts. Sorry if I am bringing up this old chestnut but what is the oldest record of the HARRISON/HARRISSON family line for the area. There are numerous online references to the "Harrison Castle" parchment regarding an ancient lineage which derives from the Cumberland Family and thus Lord HARRISSON of Conquering times . Has anyone ever seen a copy of the parchment or researched with the College of Arms (UK & Ireland) to confirm details. Regards

Dorset Lookup Requests / "Hide" Farm - Steeple Dorset

« on: Saturday 30 July 16 08:55 BST (UK) »

Hello, 1841 Steeple census records Thomas COOPER and family at "Hide". I have read information about "Hide" at http://www.opcdorset.org/SteepleFiles/SteepleHutchins.htm

Looking on google maps I see a small cottage to the east of Blackmanston Farm. Is this the cottage for "Hide"? is there a name for the farm occupying "Hide"? regards Jason

Leicestershire Lookup Requests / HARRISON, Thomas abt 1728 All Saints????

« on: Sunday 24 July 16 10:10 BST (UK) »

Dear Forum,

Me again, I have enjoyed great success in the past with requests. It's been a while and just wondering if anyone can assist in making a find/connection with my Thomas HARRISON married

16.03.1744 • Wymeswold, Leicestershire, England, witness/relative: Walter Cox (due to age of Thomas 16)

So Thomas born abt 1728 but no Baptism record at Loughborough, wondering if All Saints Leicester shows any details. I note a marriage at All Saints on 01/09/1678, Thomas HARRISON to Sarah BIRSTALL (This Thomas HARRISON having come from Birmingham) perhaps a connection

Any information much appreciated, regards Jason
