I have a Henry George Moore born 1904 in England and his brother Leonard born 1907 in England.  I know both of their parents died in the Durban area and both Leonard and Henry George married.  Henry 1926 to Adele Esther Thole in Greytown Natal and Leonard 1937 to Winifred Ansell in  Durban Natal.   I am wondering what became of them.  Did they stay in South Africa, are there any deaths registered of them as I cannot find anything more.  I would be grateful if anybody has any information.

I have a family of George Bishop b1871 in Thakeham Sussex.  In 1895 in Armagh He married Mary Gillen b1876 in Armagh whilst he was in the British army.  They had six children together in Ireland. Francis Henry 1895, Mary 1897, Josephine Elizabeth 1904, Vincent George 1906,  Patrick Edward 1909 and John Joseph 1913.  All born in Armagh.  I have the 1901 and 1911 census.  Is anybody able to tell me where this family ended up. George died 1941 and Mary 1934 but I can't remember where I got that info from or where they died.

I have tried for over fifteen years to get back further than my gt. grandfather John William Dyer frustratingly so. He was born about 1843 and on the census says birth Devon sometimes putting Blagdon and another Bishops Hull.  I won't go into to much detail with my searches but today I found a Blagdon village Haines Hill Middleway Taunton and it is near Bishops Hull.  Looking into it there is a church named St Andrews.  Does anybody have any idea as to whether there are any baptism records for there. I haven't found him on the Bishops Hull baptisms which I looked at a few years ago. If there are baptisms for St Andrews I doubt as to whether I will find him there but it is worth a try.  This must be the area as my grandmother came from Taunton.  He may not have been baptised I know and looking at the registered births may not have been registered plus if he was without a middle name.  All this I have looked into.  Have I finally cracked where he originated !! I do hope so.

I have found a death of a Jack Methven in Scotland 1920 and it states St Clement R.D.  I know R.D. means rural district but cannot find where St Clement would have been.  Has anybody any idea please.

I have just found that James Edward Rabbitt who married in 1903 Leicestershire UK to an Ada either Barrowcliff or Marriott moved to New Zealand somewhere between 1903 and 1911. I haven't found any emigration records but have come across electoral records, city and area records and burial records but I would love to know if they had any children.  Is anybody able to help? They died in Karori Wellington and seem to have lived most of their lives in Wellington.

Maybe they never had any children but if they did it would be nice to know.
