The Common Room / Re: Leeds look up please

Thank you Lizzie for your help. All Im really trying to find out is he has the same father as a friend of mine, but their mothers are different. We know that Leslie John F Palmer married a Grace Cartwright and had one child but wondered if this was another. My friend has a different mother, but same father and hoped that David Palmer would be a half brother

Im trying to find the fathers full name of David W Palmer b 1946 in Leeds. Mothers maiden name is Cartwright. GRO Ref is 9b 823 2Q 1946. Also if this is the same David W Palmer who married in 3Q -1968 to Margaret Crossland in Hemsworth GRO ref 2b 1634. The fathers name would be on the marriage cert also. This could be a possible half brother of a friend but I dont want to send for certs in case it isnt. Any help appreciated, thanks

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Re: 93 Sydney Street Chelsea/Kensington 1930

Thanks very much for your help.  The marriage certainly seems to fit as does other things that you have mentioned, except that the birth certificate states George Wm Chubb 1884 was definitely born in Chelsea. Also on his marriage cert in 1911 to Florence May Archer, his father Henry/Harry is stated as deceased.  Its so annoying that lots of things seem to fit but then theres seems to be something saying otherwise.  Im really grateful for the trouble you have taken finding this info and will certainly keep checking into it.

Hi

Im trying to research 93 Robert Street, Chelsea which I believe may have been changed to Sydney Street. On a birth certificate for George William Chubb, born at 93 Robert Street it states his father Harry or Henry was a plumber. On 1891 census 93 is shown as a workshop but with no names attached. No 93 doesnt appear on any other census. I cannot seem to find this family on any census apart from GW Chubb on 1911.  When I googled Robert Street Chelsea, Thomas Crappers biolgraphy came up as being an apprentice for a plumber on Robert St and then starting his own business in Marlborough Works, Chelsea in 1861. So I thought maybe Harry/Henry Chubb may have been employed by him and therefore lived nearby.  If anyone has access to electoral rolls from 1884 to 1904 when he died and could find them I would be extremely grateful. He is Harry/Henry Chubb (birth date not known) and wife Elizabeth Jane Chubb (formerly Kingston) birth date not known. George William Chubb born 1884
