Travelling People / Re: Can anyone help me with my gypsy ancestry?

Afternoon,

Did he marry again in 1917 to Lucy Williams?

This Cert has Sarah Ann Turner crossed out in the space for his Father, I wonder if it is his mother?

Kind regards
Amanda

Evening,

Am happy to help where I can.

Job 1871 was where I started this, so Polly is Mary Ann, she died in 1906 and yes he married Eliza Hedges but I haven't been able to place Eliza's parents yet among all the Hedges I have done.

Emily Webb is interesting, she could be one of mine, will have to check her out

Kind regards
Amanda

Evening,

That's a stunning bit of research John, very well done

I didn't have Ruth daughter of Henry but now I can fit her in, thank you

Henry and William are brothers among others, they all tended to name their children the same which is a bit of a nightmare for us especially when the children are not registered.

The Birth Cert would confirm Ruth's birth date but it is the same family although I still don't know what happened to Ruth the daughter of William and Emma!

Kind regards
Amanda

Evening,

I have done some research on the Gaskin family and have a Ruth Gaskin born about 1873, she is a sibling of Job Gaskin born about 1871 among other children.

Their parents are William Gaskin and Emma Maria Webb who married in Halsted Essex on 25 Dec 1858, if this is the same Ruth as the one you are looking for I can't say for sure but worth looking into.

All these travelling families are hard to follow up and complete any of them.

Kind regards

The Common Room / Re: Ireland Census Search Forms 1841 and 1851

It looks like he was living in England to me.
I tried putting just London in the "Applicants present address" search box and it brings up 412 results lots of which are the same address as you have found

Evening,

I am just glad to know that my upload from 30th March might actually be processed at some stage, I do understand that if folks have paid they should be given priority but it's a long time to wait!

Kind regards

Essex / Re: Essex Record Office collaboration with Ancestry
« on: Sunday 09 June 19 19:19 BST (UK)  »
Delighted to see this news, I have also made a breakthrough due to these records and as it is another unusual name I am confident he's mine

I can see it being worth another sub this year for me.

Kind Regards
Amanda

Northumberland / Re: New (relatively) GRO search for Births
« on: Monday 13 May 19 19:19 BST (UK)  »
Evening,

I had the same thing and the answer from the GRO after I had reported it twice, then to Customer Services or something along those lines, was a reply that said they couldn't help me as some of those records in the GRO Index have been entered in error and do not exist, apparently all the major companies that use the records are aware of it.
I was after the MMN as well but I can only assume now that a Death had been entered into the Births section, I didn't try ordering the Birth Cert as I manged to find the Baptism of the child

Regards
Amanda

Travelling People / Re: Grandmother- Anderson/Bibby
« on: Tuesday 08 January 19 19:40 GMT (UK)  »
Hi All,

I have found what I think is Walter, not with Rhoda in 1939 she is under Anderson but there is Walter Pierce in 1939 born 1865 which is very close in age in Mayland.

There is also a Burial in the same Parish for David Pearse in March 1943 aged 78 so I think that sorts this one out!


I have PDF's for two of their children's Birth but the MMN is Webb so there is another mystery to solve.


Happy to swop info with anyone who is searching and compare notes.


Kind regards
Amanda
