Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Dunwich LU Request - BUTCHER
« on: Tuesday 28 September 10 13:13 BST (UK)  »
Hi folks,

Could anybody please search the parish records for me for the christening of John Butcher (b. 1791 ish) in Dunwich (or for any Baxters in that area I guess!). On the 1861 census John is living in Blundeston with wife Abigail (don't have any details about her either!) and daughter and son in law (Samuel Baxter).

Best wishes,

John

Hi Jenn,

Somebody has helped me find the reference for the certificate. Also, somebody sent me a transcription of the parish register. Would the certificate be the same as the parish register entry, or have different details. The parish entry does not give parents details or their places of birth.

Best wishes,

John

Hi Jenn,

Thanks for these. The couple did indeed have children before leaving NSW. I can't find the couples death. Do you think that the birth certs and marriage cert may have more information? If so, do you know how I could get them?

Best wishes,

John

Australia / Lookup John MASON and Catherine MURPHY
« on: Wednesday 01 September 10 12:47 BST (UK)  »
...Could anybody provide me with any information on John Mason or Catherine Murphy's families?

The two married in 1841 at St Marys in Sydney. John Mason was born about 1814 and Catherine 1822 but I don't know where (Australia or UK), were they a convict family or just ordinary emigrants? They were Roman catholic and left Sydney for Adelaide and had children: Mgt b.1845, Rose b. 1847, Susanne b. 1849, Eliza b.1850, Jane b.1852, Bridget b. 1854 among others.

Any information on these two families would be brilliant.

Many thanks,

Hi Hill,

I wondered if you could help me.

I'm looking for any details about my Scanlan/Scandlon/Scanderland/Scanlon (it's spelt a number of ways). They were in Saint Helier in Jersey (early 1800's). I am trying to find out if there are any marriages, baptisms, deaths or any other important information to be found amongst any records there. I joined the CIFHS and paid a researcher who couldn't find much - but I suspect that they may have overlooked things...

Best wishes,

John

Roscommon / Roscommon - Malone
« on: Friday 20 August 10 12:10 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

Can anyone help me. I'm trying to find any information relating to a Peter Malone or Maloney born circa 1839 in Roscommon. He was a private in the army serving with the 1st Royal Battalion which was a Scottish regiment. He signed up to the army in Edinburgh and was stationed for some time in Colchester.

I know that his father was a Thomas Malone, boot and shoemaker (presumably also from Roscommon).

Could anybody have a search for me for Peter's birth (he may also be known as Patrick) and anything in relation to Thomas Malone. I'm not sure what the connection to Edinburgh is but I know of some Malones who emigrated to Edinburgh from Roscommon. A lady I have spoken to has a William Malone born about 1828, father Thomas mother Bridget McHugh...can anybody locate this record?

Best wishes and thank you for your time.

John
