Dublin / Irish relative
« on: Wednesday 02 November 11 03:12 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Guys

I am from Australia and trying to research my ancestry.  I am stuck on a Frederick Rougier who was born in Ireland and lived in Donnybrook in the early 1800's.  He later moved to Scotland.


I know it is very speculative but I was hoping someone might know someone who may be researching the Rougier family or who may direct me as to where I might be able to find further information.

I was hoping to holiday in Ireland (amongst other things) and visit some of my relatives haunts.

Thanks
Scott

Bedfordshire / John Walker Shefford
« on: Tuesday 01 November 11 12:11 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Guys

I am visiting London in November from Australia and am a direct ancestor of John Walker born in Shefford 1804, baptised in Campton on 13th December 1804.  I would like to visit Shefford and hopefully look through sites of significance to John.

I have worked out that potentially that John's father was also a John and his mother a Mary.  John's son, George moved to Australia from where I came about.

John moved to London and married in 1827 to a Emily Atkins (St John the Baptist Finsbury).  Following this John married a Selina Sibley in 1834 (St Anns Aldergate) and had son George.  I look forward to visiting these churchs and hope they are still standing.

There is a witness on the marriage certificate of John and Emily which refers to a Elizabeth Walker, potentially a sister of John's.

If anyone could assist with further details of John Walker or his ancestors in Shefford including sites of potential significant in Shefford it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Scott Walker
