Trish, Geoff
It amazes me how quickly such comprehensive replies are posted. Many thanks. I have never purchased a birth cert from England before. What is the best way to go about that? (from New Zealand).
Cheers
Paul

Lincolnshire / Olson/Olsen at Tetney
« on: Saturday 21 November 09 04:51 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for any info on Frederick Olson (Olsen) born at Kingston upon Hull in 1810, possibly emigrated to New Zealand in the 1850s and, if so, died there in 1889. I would also like to connect him to Edward Olson (Olsen), born 1843 at Tetney, Lincolnshire who moved to New Zealand in the 1850s and died Nov 1893 in New Zealand. His brother was Harold.
Also posted in East Yorkshire forum.

Graham
Thanks for that (I think).
A little disappointing to see the connection to the Thornhills broken, but good to get things sorted. I was having difficulty tracking a birth for Dora Thornhill and relied (incorrectly) on her and her mother's wedding notices in the newspaper.

Oops
In my previous posts I should have written "Richard Sheppard Jr.", not Edward.
Hope this will spark something.

Huntingdonshire Lookup Requests / Re: Bryan Thornhill from Hemingford, Huntingdon
« on: Monday 12 October 09 18:25 BST (UK) »
Trish,
I had a look into the meaning of "No Cure of Souls" (next to your post for William Thornhill in 1851) and found the following:
"The man concerned was a cleric or clergyman of the Church of England. He
held the educational qualification of "Master of Arts" (A.M.; or today
often termed M.A.) and was therefore most likely a graduate of Oxford or
Cambridge University. "No Cure of souls" means that he was not at that time
appointed to a position in any parish; either as a Curate, Vicar etc. To
hold a "Cure of souls" is to have the care of souls - to be in spiritual
charge of parishioners."
http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/DEVON/1999-11/0942310772
The article then refers to some published alumni lists for Cambridge and sure enough it is online and I found William.

Has a lot of good info, including birth/death date, who he married etc.

Michael,
In 1871 he was in India, then he moved to NZ, so I guess he is only missing for 1861.
