Nottingham Completed Lookup Requests / Toton and Attenborough Nottinghamshire
« on: Saturday 13 March 21 08:14 GMT (UK)  »
I'm searching for the Wilmott/Willmott/Wilmot family. My gg grandmother gave both Toton and Attenborough, Nottingham on the 1851 and 1861 Census. I don't know who her family are. She was born 1775/1780. Ann wasn't in Nottinghamshire. She was in Leicestershire on all the census records.

Australia / charles douglas
« on: Sunday 05 July 15 13:34 BST (UK)  »
Looking for information regarding Charles Douglas or Dougal, could also have been James. He died in 1913. At one point lived with people by the name of Gates, in Trumpeter Street, Battery Point. Would really appreciate any help at all related to him, also how he got to Tasmania. Was he a convict or free? Thanks Britt

Europe / Sweden Place Name
« on: Monday 12 September 11 11:03 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help with a place in Sweden?
The groom was born  around 1840 in Karls Krole, Sweden. It may no longer exist or the place may have been renamed or the spelling may be incorrect. It could be that the Minister who was English / Australian phonetically spelt what he thought he heard. The groom was a firm confidant writer, when he signed the certificate.

I've just received a marriage certificate, where the groom states he was born in Carls Knole, about 1840. Can anyone help me with the name of this place?

I'm hoping that someone out there can help me.
My ancestor was a Hairdresser in the 1780 - 1800+. He was in the London are & then Finchley. Does anyone know where the Apprenticeship papers are for this particular trade? Two of his sons were also Barbers.

Thanks Britt

Midlothian / Cemetery records

Can anyone help with "The New Ground" Cemetery records at South Leith? I'm hoping the Headstones have been transcribed & are available. 

On Scotland's people, it has recorded that this is where John Johnstone was buried, even to who is buried next to him.
