Checking again to see if anyone can help with the search for details on my Grandad harry,s brother .

Ernest was in the Royal Horse Artillery around 1924 .We know that Ernest lived in Peacock Street Norwich in the 1970,s but thats all we have .With out breaking privacy laws I would love to find a relative of ernest and hopefully try to fill in some gaps on our history .

Staffordshire / Harry gilbert
« on: Sunday 14 November 10 09:48 GMT (UK)  »
My grandad was born in york in 1903 ,went to Ireland then in 1919 back to York and he lived there until 1930,before moving to surrey .Grandad had an older brother ernest as well as younger sisters .
I have little info on who my great grandparents were,apart from thier names.Harry gilbert and lizzy (Fitzsimmons) .I cannot  trace where Harry originated from however Lizzie came from dublin Ireland .I am hoping that Harry snr or ernest came from staffordshire? By the way ernest was born in 1897 somewhere in england.I know its not much ,but im stuck!!

Please can anyone point me in a direction?

Wexford / Lizzie Fitzsimmons
« on: Sunday 14 November 10 08:50 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find any information of my great grandmother Lizzie Fitzsimmons who we have as mother to my grandad Harry Gilbert.
We think there is a chance that Lizzie died in 1916 in Wexford during child birth with daughter Irene ,she would have been about 35 .Our great grandad was Harry Gilbert ,and we are starting to think that Lizzie and Harry snr were not married! because there is just nothing in England or Ireland of their marriage .
If we can find a link here we can move on and solve the mystery!
 :D



Thank you

Dublin / fitzsimmons or Gilberts
« on: Tuesday 26 October 10 09:26 BST (UK)  »
My grandad harry Gilbert was living in 3  Pembroke lane dublin as of 1911 ,he was born somewhere in england ,my grandad was 6 years old .I know for sure he was born in York England .
The family then moved again back to York ,grandad left home in 1924 to join the army .
My great grandad Harry was born in England in 1875, My great nana was Lizzie Fitzsimmons born 1881 in Ireland .I cannot fathom why they moved from england to ireland after the birth of grandads sister Lilly  in 1907 and then why go back to england after the birth of another sister in Ireland a few years later?
I have been told great grandad was a driver in the lord mayors office in dublin .Where did lizzie originate from and where did her husband Harry originate from ?

I am tracking the family history of my great grandad,frank ollinton.
All I know is that grandad came from castlebar and also his wife ellen ralph .They moved to scotland in the early or mid 1920,s.
I have been succesfull with the ralph side of the family but the ollingtons remain a mystery.
