Devon / Hutchings
« on: Tuesday 18 June 13 18:52 BST (UK)  »
Never very sure where to put a request for look ups, so if this is the wrong area, sorry.

I am trying to trace William Hutchings born in Culmstock Devon in 1802.  I believe he married in 1833 to a Sarah Hart.  They soon moved to Sydenham Kent and further generations where born and lived out their lives there.  I would dearly like to get further back, so could anyone do a look up for me please to establish parents and siblings.  Many thanks, in advance.

The Common Room / Clifford Cutforth Walton
« on: Friday 17 August 12 17:46 BST (UK)  »
I expect I've got the wrong forum, but does anyone have any information on this person.  He was born in 1901 at 39 Greengates, Eccleshill Yorkshire and baptised at Eccleshill St John in 1902.  He lived with his stepfather and mother (1911 census) in Corton near Wakefield (their surname was Burrill).  He died in 1977 in the Wharfedale district of Yorkshire.  I would dearly like to establish whether or not he married and if so, to whom.  There are quite a few Clifford Waltons and I cannot afford to get all the certificates!!!!!  Does anyone have any information?

Hello there,

Is there anyone who could find any information relating to William Matthews born 1890 and married to Emily Jones.  They had a son, also William Matthews, born January 1917.  I have the son's birth certificate which tells me that at the time of his birth William and Emily lived at 22 Lower Canal Walk Southampton; father William was a Private in the 5th Hants Regiment and is working as a Dock Labourer.  I am unable to find William seniors father/mother/siblings, so cannot get any further with family history.  Also I am unable to trace the marriage of William and Emily.  There are links with 36 Onslow Road Southampton as a medal was sent there in 1923.  I would be grateful for any information (unfortunately I'm unable to offer payment :(

Is there anyone who could possible check for the birth of Jane Dobson about 1816 in Escrick Yorkshire please?  I live way down in Suffolk.  I can only find her on the 1851 amd 1816 censuses for Riccal Yorkshire.  She has a son, William but the census shows her as being unmarried rather than widowed.  If you can help, I would be grateful, sorry cannot afford to pay though!!:'(

Hello everyone,  I expect I'm in the wrong forum, if so, apologies.

Is there anyone out there who knows of Harry Walton s/o George and Florence (nee Farnish), born in July of 1914?  I cannot seem to find a marriage or a death.  He was born in the Bradford area, his parents having been married in the local church at Greengates.

Are there any of you who are Waltons?

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Mills in Bradford

Hi there,

I am trying to find which mill was owned by James Alexander Rennie in or around 1920's onwards.  My grandfather worked for him as a mechanic and used to be allowed to take cars home on some occasions.  I have drawn a blank so far and was hoping someone might be able to help me.  Thanks.  Philippa

Just wanted to add that my grandfather was Clarence Walton (1893-1972) and lived in Farsley.  Perhaps someone reading this is related.
