Thanks Jim.  We had seen this family once before and couldn't, at that stage, rule them out.  Appreciate your help.  Sue

Henrietta's marriage certificate shows her parents as Henry Jackson and Frances Herbert.
Death certificate shows Herz Jackson and Frances Sinclair.
Her eldest daughter's birth certificate and her husband death certificate show her as Frances Henrietta Jackson but all the other certificates show her as just Henrietta and her birth date ranges from 1838 to 1841.  All certificates show she is from Leicester.
We haven't been able to find her birth either and wonder if perhaps her surname wasn't Jackson at all!
She certainly is a mystery.  Sue

Hi Jim
We have Henrietta Frances Jackson born ? Leicester 1839-41 parents Henry (or Herz) & Fanny Jackson (nee Sinclair or Herbert).  Henrietta Frances arrived in Australia on the Stebonheath in 1858.  Her parents at that time were deceased.  The family myth was she was from a well-to-do family but the shipping record shows she was 19yr old housemaid!!  Thanks for your help.

Thanks for all your help.  I guess this rules out this family as my connection.  Our Fanny Jackson (or Henrietta Jackson) remains a mystery.  She travelled to Australia in 1858 but we can't find any trace of her birth.  So I'm trying to check out all possibilities.  Many thanks once again.

Can someone look at the marriage of Henry Jackson to Frances Evans in Kidderminster 1838 and any children they had.  I believe they had a daughter Fanny born Jun 1840 and am trying to establish if this is correct and what may have happened to her.
Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have ancestors:  Elizabeth Livesey (died 8/10/1757) m William Gregson (bap 7/5/1698,) on 3/9/1718 at Penwortham.  They had 7 children - Raphe, Robert, Ellin, Margaret, Ann, Richard & Jane.  Is this the right family?  If so, I have more details I can send you.

Hi Clare

Could you send me the details on the certificate:
1870 Euphemia - Robert Nichol and Douglas Miller.  I may also have a connection to the Hume's listed but not sure yet!

Many thanks

Dorset Completed Look up Requests / Re: Ford family 1851 PLEASE!
« on: Wednesday 19 July 06 10:22 BST (UK)  »
Hi

I am related to the Ford family through John (born 1831).  My grandmother was Annie Muir (nee Ford).  I have quite a lot of information on the Ford family, also have some brickwalls, of course!!  Would love to hear from you. :) :)
