Worcestershire / Re: Bastardy records - Cupper

Yeah, I wasn't holding out a lot of hope of finding anything, but I thought maybe if I could find a bastardy record there might be something. Seems not if they don't exist for this time, but ah well, that's nothing new.
Thanks for the tip about the registry office, I might do something along those lines.

Cheers for that info Mike, I didn't know that they were much more rare in the 20's than previously.
I have both the birth certificate and baptism record, but both fail to list the name of the father. As for the Worcestershire Family History Centre, I live in Australia so that's not really a possibility for me.
Ah well, hopefully something will come up.

Worcestershire / Bastardy records - Cupper
« on: Tuesday 13 December 11 12:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,

I have recently discovered that there is such a thing as bastardy records.
Does anyone know if there is any way to access bastardy records for Ombersley, Worcestershire online?
If not, would some soul be so kind as to do a look-up for me?

I am looking for the father of Florence Rose Cupper. She was born 20 Feb 1920 Hartlebury/Ombersley. She is the daughter of Rose Cupper, b. 18 Oct 1898, daughter of John and Florence Sarah Cupper.

I have no information as to who Florence's father is, other than a family legend that his last name was Green, but I have no proof of this.

Thanks,
CRodda.

Thankyou both for all your help :)
Suzard, can I ask, what does "transcribed age" mean? I don't quite understand.

Cheers,

London and Middlesex / PASCOE, DEACON parents
« on: Thursday 24 November 11 10:31 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm looking for information on the parents of William PASCOE and Mary Ann DEACON.

From 1851 and 61 census:
William: b. circa 1826, Bishopsgate London, shoemaker.
Also, his wife, Mary Ann born c. 1828, St. Luke's Middlesex.

From London marriage and banns:
William Pascoe shoemaker married Mary Ann Deacon 11 June 1848, Christchurch Spitalfields.
Both living in King Street, Mary at no 1, at time of marriage.
Her father Thomas Deacon, sailor. His father John Pascoe, blacksmith.

I haven't been able to get access to the 1841 census - I don't know if there is more information there. I have also tried Family Search and FreeBMD, but no luck.

I also have information from another person's family tree. I have been unable to contact the person and would like to verify the information, especially as some of it does not make sense.
From this site:
John Pascoe, father of William: born 1793, London. Married Mary Ann Melvin (born 1798 London) on 12 Feb 1822, Shoreditch, London.

Thanks for any and all help,
CRodda.

Australia / Re: Boer War enlisted overseas - HUTTON
« on: Saturday 22 October 11 11:04 BST (UK)  »
Wow! Thankyou all for your help :)
It would make sense that the A Hutton in Doyle's Australian Scounts is the one that I am looking for - I know that the family certainly settled in this area. Of course, this is not certain - but thankyou, this is further than I have got in a long time :)

Australia / Boer War enlisted overseas - HUTTON
« on: Friday 21 October 11 13:00 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm looking for any records on my great grandfather, Archibald Hutton. b. 20 Aug 1882, Collingwood VIC. Married Ellen Ing (b. 23 Feb 1891, Cowwar VIC) on 8 Jan 1813.

Specifically, I'm looking for his Boer War records. I believe that he left on board a ship transporting horses to the war, and he was looking after the horses. Once in South Africa, he lied about his age in order to enlist. He was in a light horse regiment, probably a Victorian one.

He doesn't seem to be on any of the records at the Victorian Records Office. Does anybody know if there are any records/ ways of finding records for those who did not enlist until they were already in South Africa??

Many thanks,
CRodda.
