New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Please find birth mother

Thank you so much for removing details from the site and for your help.
I would not wish to cause any embarrassment to birth mother or any of her family

New Zealand Completed Requests / Please find birth mother COMPLETED
« on: Friday 08 November 13 17:22 GMT (UK)  »
I have now got my birth/adoption records, having previously thought they were unavailable and have a fair bit of information, but as my birth father was from USA and my birth mother from New Zealand. I was born 1965 at St Mary Abbots Hospital, London and named Joanna Sampson.
 
I am not able to access births, deaths and marriages in NZ as not a NZ citizen and the births, deaths and marriages I think we may need to search are less that the 80 or 100 years required for me to gain access. My mother would now be 72 yrs old, if still living, and NZ privacy laws do not allow access.

Any help would be most appreciated

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: DNA tests
« on: Sunday 04 May 08 20:12 BST (UK)  »
Thank you for your help.  For my maternal line I am sure I read that the DNA sample is stored for 10 - 20 years during which time further information can be be extracted as technology allows and that it was hoped that soon a test for maternal fathers line would be available.

My father's DNA is is important to me as I have come to a dead end.
His male line stops in 1803 when Henry Harrison was baseborn. His mother was Dinnis Everett. Her forename appears in parish registers as Dinnis Dainey Denny.
As she does not appear to have married a Harrison and Henry through Parish and census records appears always Harrison and not Everett I can only presume his father was a Harrison.
  As I can not prove Harrison was the surname before 1803 I do not think I can join a Harrison DNA project.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / DNA tests
« on: Tuesday 29 April 08 20:13 BST (UK)  »

My husband has had both maternal & paternal DNA tests recently performed. (His parents are dead)
I want to find out my DNA group.
    Being female I know I have to obtain my father's DNA for the male line,
but for the female line is it better to obtain my own or my mother's DNA just incase in the future they can use her stored DNA to obtain her father's line as well as her mother's?
As the tests are expensive I want to get it right.

Thank you for replying
There are no Amelia Taylor's deaths registered for Herefordshire but there is one Amelia in Oxfordshire and one in Worcestershire which may be on route from Hertfordshire.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / London burials

Hello
I would be grateful if anyone could help me.
For many years I have been looking for the death of Amelia wife of Joseph Taylor.
She was living in Hitchin, Hertfordshire when the 1851 & 1861 census was taken.
In 1861 she was 41 years old living with husband Joseph a Drover. She had 4 living children the youngest being only 1 month old.
In 1871 her widowed husband was at a Beer House & Common Lodging house in Hitchin - Drover out of work.
I can only find her youngest child now living with Joseph's sister.
Amelia was the daughter of George Curtis a Farmer. I do not know where he lived.
I believe Drover's wives moved around with their husbands from cattle market to cattle market and wondered if she died on route. There are no Hitchin deaths or burials for Amelia or her children.
As the GRO Index does not give age of deaths for the following 5 entries I am unable to rule them out. The 6th Amelia was the correct age but was she wife of Joseph Taylor, Drover?

GRO Deaths

Dec 1862      Taylor    Amelia       St Giles          1b   305   LND
Jun 1863     Taylor    Amelia       Brentford          3a   41   MDX
Dec 1863      Taylor    Amelia       Pancras          1b   24   LND
Dec 1864                 Taylor    Amelia       Newington      1d   151   LND
Jun 1865      Taylor    Amelia       Bethnal Gn      1c   205   LND
Jun 1866      Taylor    Amelia    45    Lambeth           1d   244   LND

Any help would be gratefully received.

Hertfordshire / Re: Maternity Hospitals in Hitchin around 1933
« on: Tuesday 25 September 07 18:29 BST (UK)  »
My mother was born at the Maples Maternity Hospital, Bedford Road, Hitchin in 1933
It was pulled down a few years ago and although had not been used as maternity home for many years it was still used by NHS (as administration offices I think). The Maples stopped being used when the North Herts Maternity Hospital was opened next door. I think this was used until 1980 when it was transferred to Stevenage
