England / Re: George William Warner
« on: Thursday 01 January 15 14:22 GMT (UK)  »
It is now nearly seven years since I started my search for service records for George William Warner, married 1876 aged 29 years. He was a Sergeant in the Scots Greys, 2nd Dragoons. See previous correspondence dated 9 March 2008.  I am now having another go at finding information on this gentleman.  Any advice would be very gratefully received and acted upon.  also if anyone knows of whether there is someone at Kew who would do a lookup for me, again that would be great.  All I have is his marriage certificate, daughters birth certificate and his death certificate.  He is not on any census that I can find! 

Happy New Year to all,  epc

Hello Kevin

Your Violetta was the sister of my husbands  grandfather, Frederick Starkey.  Their father was John Starkey who was born in Germany about 1854.  John married Sophia Brown 1.4.1877at Worcester and they had 5 sons and 3 daughters. 

Do you know any more about John Starkey?

Is there any mention of Wallis's Yard in 1910 and 1912, please?

You are a genius!

Shaun again

Sorry just looked at your link.  I had read that piece when it was first posted, but didn't absorb the significance of it.  OK, I'm an idiot!

I will look at the 1911 to see if  that same family were still living there. 

Whilst on, can I search the 1911 census for an address only?

Bye for now

Wow!!!  Thanks  -  how did you find that out, I have been searching for ages!

Is there an easy way for me to find out who was living at 25 Buckingham Palace Road around 1909.  Back to trying to find a street index I suppose.  Also is it possible to search the 1901 and 1911 census for an address only.

Big thank again

Thank you for your reply Valda. 

On the 1901 census his parents, Henry and Florence Cullen, were living in Brighton.  Henry was a coachman (not domestic) - what would (not domestic) mean, please?

By 1911 they were living at Churchover, Rugby and Henry was still a "coachman".

On the birth certificate it states that Bob's father, Robert, was born on the 8.10.1909.  The date of Registration was 22.11.1909, which is more than six weeks by 3 days.

I have the school records for Churchover Parochial C of E School.  They state that Henry's oldest child started school 26.1.1910 and that his last school was St Peters, Eton Square. also listed as Lower Belgrave Street.  I cannot find any trace of them living in the Eton Square area, unfortunately.

I would still like to find out if there are any Street Directories around 1909 for the area around Wallis's Yard because I think that they were staying with  Henry's mother (Eliza Blanks) at that time.

Thank you for the interest that you have shown.

Regards epc
