Thank you so much for that Valda, I will make sure that I phone them and tell them of my visit and what I would like to acsess.

I have been in discussions with ancestry over Abigails Death certificate and we discussed the 1841 census where she was put as Independant, they said that usually means someone on their own seperated, that is why I presumed they were living apart as otherwise they would have her down as married.

I am intending to visit the archives and the museum and I believe it is the priory that holds all the information and pictures of the Bargemen, I am going in October mid month and arming myself with all the information I want to find.

Many thanks for your help

Hertfordshire / JOHNSON - Ware - Help Please.

I am researching my 3 grt Grandfathers family of Johnson in Herts Ware.
I have the Census for 1841 & 1851 his name was:
Joseph Johnson, his wife was Abigail johnson
They were married on 1.11.1816 in Ware the church I am not sure of.
Joseph died of Renal Abscess in 1846 and was buried in St mary the virgin in ware.
I have his death certificate and have emailed the church who have said as he died in the Union workhouse he will have no head stone as he had no money.
He was a Bargeman in his working life and I am awaiting a reply from the proiry museum concerning the bargemen.
I am planning a visit to Ware in mid October for a week to do some research and visit the places such as Crib street where they lived. Also to visit the church and the local archives, my problem is I have searched the surname lists and find him nowhere, as I cannot get an index number I cannot order a certificate of their marriage. I cannot order the childrens birth certs as the records only start from 1837, so I am hoping that a visit to herts will uncover some information for me.
There is no trace of Joseph in the census before or after 1841 and I can only think that he and Abigail lived apart.

Can you tell me if there are any records held at the church or are they all at the local History library, I have found a marriage database online but it only takes credit cards and not debit cards so I cannot acsess it.
I would be extremely  gratefulany advice you could give me.

many thanks

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Family Of Pope
« on: Friday 29 June 07 00:24 BST (UK)  »

Hi Everyone I am back after a long time away, still been doing a bit of seaching but what with PC problems and illness those times have been far and few between.
But I have just met up with a cousin after 41 years our parents were born in Bermondsey eston Street and I am wondering if anyone here has come across the name or maybe searching the same family, my grandfather was Edward Pope and my Grandmother Emma, they lived in Bermondsey all their lives. Patrish and Pat hope you are both well
