Stirlingshire / James Dobbins
« on: Tuesday 08 March 11 14:47 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find out more about the family of James Dobbins, born Bannockburn in 1920.  I know that his father was also James and that his mother was Jane (nee Johnston).  I believe that Jane died when her son, James, was quite young and that he and his elder brother were put into an orphanage.

Any information on James and his forebears would be much appreciated.

Thank you
Lesley

Monmouthshire Lookup Requests / Ynysddu Church Records
« on: Monday 13 December 10 12:45 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I wonder if anyone can help with baptism records for Anne Williams (born around 1852 in Ynysddu) and her father Henry Williams, a collier who may also have been born in Ynysddu?

Also, I believe Anne had an illegitimate daughte, Sarah Jane, born around 1870 and I would be most grateful for any information on her baptism as well.

I understand that Ynysddu now comes under Glamorganshire, but presume I am correct in posting this in Monmouthshire as this was correct at the time of these births.

Many thanks

Lesley

Hi Peter

Thank you, I did mean to post it in Monmouthshire!!  I will do so now in Glamorganshire, as suggested.

Thanks again

Thanks for that!

As I live in the "not so sunny at the moment" south of England, I was rather hoping someone in the Ynysddu area might have access to the church records.

Thank you anyway and Merry Christmas!!

Can anyone help please?

I am trying to find the baptism record for Anne Williams, daughter of Henry Williams (a collier), born in Ynysddu around 1852.

It would appear that Anne had an illegitimate daughter, Sarah Jane, around 1870 in Ynysddu so presumably her baptism would also be recorded in the local church.

I would be most grateful for any information.

With thanks

Thanks again, Shirl.

I did try the Jon Baker e-mail, but with the same result!

When I have a bit more time, I will see what I can find via Google.

Hi Shirl100

Thank you so much for that.  Edwin and Mary are actually Florence's parents, so that is really great!  Unfortunately, the e-mail addresses on the OPC website no longer seem to be valid.  Any ideas?!!

I would be most grateful for any help you may be able to offer.

With thanks
Lesley
