New Zealand Completed Requests / Thomas James BILBE, in New Zealand 1952-1956
« on: Saturday 19 March 22 18:09 GMT (UK)  »
I have found from online records that he emigrated from England and arrived in Wellington in 1952.In 1956 he returned to England leaving from Auckland.
On his outward voyage from Glasgow in 1952 there was a passenger "Mary Louise Fiveash".They must have married in New Zealand and I believe in 1954 Mary returned to England with a 1 year old son.
I would be very interested in details of their marriage,and the birth record,or any other details of their time in New Zealand.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / WILLIAM BILBE 1856-1913
« on: Friday 18 March 22 17:39 GMT (UK)  »
I have found William with his wife Alice and family in the 1891 census living in Walthamstow,and again in the 1911 census still living in Walthamstow.
I cannot trace them in the 1901 census.
Would appreciate any help please.

Nottinghamshire / Re: Joseph DOBB (or Dobbs).born 1863 Hucknall.

That surprises me,I had assumed people gave honest answers in fear of some sort of comeback if found out they were not being truthful.
Looked on the web ,but little of any relevance.
Interesting.

Kloumann,ref your reply no 17 I have searched but cannot find any record in the 1891 census of his wife or three children.His declaration in that census that he is single and no family shown with him, all seems rather suspicious.
His grandfather a Joseph Dobbs was a bit of a lad, using an alias, Morton, and spending time in prison.

Thanks Kloumann.
Have been a bit dim there,although GRO record shows her birth as 1891,not 1888 as census.

Thanks for the reply Kloumann.
Ernest Rosier France's WW1 military record shows he married Lottie May Dobb in Plymouth,why middle name shown as William I don't know.
Of Joseph & Charlottes 8 children,6 followed him emigrating to the USA.
Another Sophia Dobb born 1896 died in 1897.
And the other ,May Dobb shown in the 1901 census as being born in 1888,I cannot find any record of.??

Working through all these Dobb siblings who emigrated to the USA.
Could somebody help with the following--
Lottie May Dobb,born 1891 Walsall.Found a marriage to a Ernest William France in Plymouth in 1909.In 1923 Lottie May France arrived in the USA on the "Albania" with husband Ernest Rosier France,this is my Lottie as parent in record is Joseph Dobb with the right address,and born in Walsall.
I cannot find a record of their marriage,if indeed this is a different marriage to the Plymouth marriage ??
Several other USA records of Lottie May and Ernest ROSIER France.
Would appreciate any help.
