Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Whereabouts of Thomas Barrett in 1891
« on: Sunday 08 March 15 23:59 GMT (UK)  »
Would someone be kind enough to try and find Thomas Barrett in the 1891 census.  He was born out of wedlock in Kildwick, WRY in November 1885 to Elizabeth Hannah Barrett.  He wasn't at home in 1891 and may have been staying with other relatives or even with a family named Dawson.
Thank you.

roadrunner,  is this your picture?  I'm pretty certain it is but I can't find the thread it was on.  It wouldn't colour up too well for me so there's one in grayscale too.

Hi,

I'm looking for Hannah Lister, possibly living in Barnborough at the time of the 1841 census.  If she was there, I'd appreciate information about the household.

Thank you,
Ken

Armed Forces / Identification of uniform
« on: Wednesday 30 March 11 09:52 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

I've received a message from a distant relative and he says, "I have been told that my great great grandfather John Ogle (1856-1926) had a brother that served in the military and may have travelled to India.    I am attaching two possible photographs of his brother.  Do the photographs contain any clues about time period or branch of service."

I'm wondering if you can give me any help on this.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Which James?
« on: Wednesday 09 March 11 23:17 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,  I've been trying to find out which James Jolley is the father of my relatives.  Could someone please have a look in the 1901 census for a James Jolley, almost certainly in the Wigan area and aged about 34, with a son Harry aged about 2 and a son Elijah aged about 4.  Thanks in advance.

PS His wife's name is probably Alice.

Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Mystery place COMPLETED

Hi, in the 1851 census of Addingham, my great great great grandfather, Isaac Richardson, is shown as originating in Gilling, Surrey.

I have never heard of Gilling, nor can I find it in any Surrey maps, old or new.  I wondered if anyone knows if it ever existed in Surrey around the year 1811 or if anyone can suggest the correct name of the place.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Completed Requests / 1841 & 1851 look up COMPLETE
« on: Sunday 20 February 11 23:17 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, could anyone please look up my great great great grandfather Isaac Richardson.  Unfortunately, I don't have the address but I believe he lived in Addingham near Ilkley around the time of the 1841 and 1851 censuses.  If it's possible to find him without an address, I'd appreciate any information about where he came from, who he was living with, his occupation etc.  Many thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm looking for Jane Lister born about 1828 in Brinsworth, WRY.  I believe her father was John Lister and that there were connections in Barmbrough (Barnburgh), WRY.  If she was in Barmbrough in 1841, I'd be grateful for any info about the household.  Many thanks in advance.
