Europe / Re: German Pork Butchers in Britain
« on: Sunday 02 October 11 22:12 BST (UK)  »
Dear Histres,
Are you aware of the immigration routes taken by our Pork Butcher ancestors.  Can you tell us more of what the journey would have been like in the 1850s?
Thanks.

The researcher in Germany, Erika Lanz, found it in a Family Book in the village of Niedernhall.  She sent me several jpegs but the resolution isn't great and neither is my German.

Hello All,
First post in this thread.

I learned that Frederike Roger, sister of Karl Friedrich died in infancy from a friend who did some research for me in Germany and I have passed that information on as fact.

Is it possible that I have reported an error and that Frederike did NOT die as reported?

I wonder if someone might be able to check to see if Christiane Friedrike Röger (born 23 MAY 1858 in Niedernhall, sister of Karl Friedrich Ernst Röger and daughter of Christian Karl Röger and Christina Friederike Dünger) did in fact die 10 JUL 1859 or might she be Frederike of Ulverston?

Thanks.

Glen

I don't think the Frederike Roger you mention is a sister of Karl F.E. & Frederick C Roger. They were 2 of a family of 10 Rogers from Niedernhall but  Frederike is not listed (source Glen Roger). The 1891 Census records Fred Rogers (Frederick C) servant working for a family named Howson in Barrow in Furness. He was a porkbutcher and married to a Sophie Weber (Bradford 1993). They had 6 children 3 of whom had died at the time of the 1911 census. Thanks to Swissgirl I now have 3 of their daughters, Florence born in  Birmingham, Maude bn in Biddulp and Winifred in Barrow in Furness. So far I have had no success in tracing these 3 children. There appears to have been a number of Roger(s) familys in Barrow in Furness so without ordering a lot of marriage certs I can't progress. Anybody any ideas?

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Barrow in Furness in 1871 census

I appreciate your responses.  Some German pork butchers (Roger, Diez) lived there in 1878... and I was hoping that they might have been there in 1871.  There was a German pork butcher (Ramhold Thomalla) in 1881 but, alas, No Diez or Roger.

I gather that the civil parish in 1871 is not Barrow but Ulverton?

Thanks again.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Barrow in Furness in 1871 census
« on: Saturday 10 July 10 01:53 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I'm trying to find out who lived at 36 Cavendish Street in 1871.  Using the Ancentry.com website's census browse feature I am able to enter the county of Lancashire and find Barrow in Furness in the next drop down menu in 1881.  However,  in 1871 the town is not listed as a civil parish under the Lancashire dropdown menu.

Help???

Thanks.
Glen
