Hi All

I have been researching the Dawkins family tree from Wales for about a year and a half now, and I am at a point where I think I can go no further.

I no I have in the past asked for help on this site, so I hope it is okay to do so again.

I have managed to get my family back to a generation of :-

Henry Dawkins who died 111.10.1745 In Bosherston, he was married to a Sarah who died 07.05.1743 also in Bosherston. They have children Lewis 1694, Henry 1695 (my family line) Alice 1707 and Richard 1709.
Now I can not seem to find any more information on either Henry or Sarah and I was just wondering if there is any way of me finding out this information online as I am 7 hours away from Pembroke. I am however coming to Pembroke Dock in May for a week, and am hoping to get to record office/cemeteries/churches to see if I can find any information that.

Sorry long post, my question is do any of you know where or if it is going to be possible to find out any further information on this family i.e. birth marriage, parents.

My Dawkins all seem to use Bosherston Church, Stackpole, St Petrox, church.

I am looking forward to your response, and thanks in advance for any help on this.

(Hope I have made it clear)

Thanks

Hi All

I am researching the Jackson family that come from orginiated by the looks of it from Northumberland, but they moved around through chester le street, hartlepool and Middlesbrough.

I was just wondering if anyone else was researching a Jackson family that seemed to come from any of these locations.

My husbands Gran was a Jackson before she married into the Hall family.

So far I have got back to John Jackson 1715-1763 who married Eleanor Wood 1724-1812 in 1740.

Hope this is Okay to post, and I look forward to hearing from someone soon hopefully.

Thanks
Kelly

Hello,

I am asking another favor off you all, I think one of my husbands relatives ran the above pub and he remembers it burning down, he believes it was a Christmas eve, but other then that he has no further memories on it.
So I was just wondering if anyone does know anything about this pub, and if they do, do they have a date for when it did burn down, so i could go to the gazette and see if they have an issue archived (you can do this can't you?)

Also any photographs of this pub would be great.

Many Thanks, hope someone can help
Regards

Hello All,

(I have also posted this in the Durham section)

I am looking up the Dawkins family and have come to a stubbling point on some parts of my family history.

1) I have a William Dawkins born 1881 witton park durham, dad is believed to be George Dawkins 1855 Wales.. but we do not have a mam for William -- this is something I would like
2) George Dawkins born 1855/1856 in Wales, has gone missing on the 1881 census -- Any reference for this would help
3) Margaret Dawkins born 1879 found living at home aged 2 in 1881 but then vanishes.. any info on her would be great

Also if anyone has any more information that may help that would be great.

Many Thanks
Kelly x
