Orkney / Re: John Stuart Scarth and Napoleonic wars
« on: Friday 17 July 15 18:51 BST (UK)  »
John Stuart Scarth was my ggggrandfather. He was born in 1809 in Lisbon, Portugal.  His father was John Scarth also born in Orkney.  John Stuart Scarth lived in Liverpool as did William Baikie, in fact I think that perhaps all the Scarths in Liverpool are related to me!

Kent Lookup Requests / Re: 1851 census Sheerness HARRIS

Thankyou for looking, I had found him a long time ago now.  I cannot find his father Sampson, or mother Charlotte Augusta in 1851 however.  Children born in Sheerness in 1851 after the census but no sign of them.

Devon Lookup Requests / Re: Stoke Damerel HARRIS
« on: Saturday 23 November 13 21:51 GMT (UK)  »
I seem to have missed all these replies to my original request!  I have in the last few days found the marriage of Sampson to Charlotte, it has taken me thirteen years, which just goes to prove you should never give up!  They married in Jersey in 1837, more interestingly Sampson had also married in Jersey in 1833 and had a son called John Thomas in 1834 and a daughter called Sophia in 1835.  Sophia just seems to have disappeared. However the new information would help with the assumption that they are the children in the Hancock household and that Charlotte aged 2 is the mother wrongly transcribed.  Sarah had been born in Stoke Damerel and John not in Devon  (Jersey) so that fits.  On the marriage it says Charlotte was from Devon.  Thankyou to all those people who have helped.

Still looking for Sampson Harris in 1851.  I have gone through Sheerness house by house, no sign!
