Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Jenner family in Kent

« on: Thursday 13 September 07 10:25 BST (UK) »

Hi
I am very stuck with my husband's family who came from Kent. Caroline Frances Jenner was age 22 when she married Edward Percival Benson in 1888. Her father was called Thomas Little Jenner and he was a carman. I can only find them on the 1871 census where she is living in Southwark, London.
It says Caroline was age 5 and born in Middlesex but her father, Thomas, was born in Bredgar, Kent. Her mother, Matilda, was born in Herne. I can find no other trace of them in the census returns. I have done an IGI search and found a George Jenner & Mary Fisher with several children including a Thomas born 1839, all born in Bredgar. There is also a daughter Caroline and another called Frances which led me to believe that this was the right family but an IGI search for marriages shows a George Jenner married to a Mary Little in 1816 in Rochester and that makes me think is that Thomas's parents because his middle name is given as little.

Can anyone help? Would be really grateful

Durham / Windle family in Sunderland/Boldon/South Shields

« on: Monday 23 April 07 09:32 BST (UK) »

Hi
Trying to find the W(h)indle family.
In 1841 census I have Richard Whindle age 10 living in Sunderland (New Street) with possibly his sister Ann age 4 and George & Elizabeth Webster. George is a cord wainer. I am interested in RIchard W(h)indle.
in 1851 he is living with his wife Sarah and his inlaws Robert & Elizabeth Alder. He is working as a bootmaker, living in Hendon Road Bishop Wearmouth.
1861 still in B. Wearmouth, shoemaker living with wife Sarah and 3 children
1871 he has 4 children and 1881 3 of his children are still at home.
I was wondering whether anyone knew why he was living with the Websters in 1841 and if they have any knowledge of his parents.
Any help greatly appreciated

Essex Completed Lookup Requests / Warricker family

« on: Monday 23 April 07 09:16 BST (UK) »

I am looking for any info on the Warricker family. Hannah Warricker was born in 1829, Great Leighs, married George Searles in 1850 and she died in 1906. I know that she is the daughter of Robert Warricker c1797 and Mary Smith c1802 but can't get any further back. Robert is possibly the son of Arthur Woraker but not sure.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Benson family, Richmond/Ripon

« on: Tuesday 10 April 07 10:07 BST (UK) »

Trying to find the Benson family. Originally I thought they were from Richmond, Surrey but now believe it to be Richmond, Yorkshire. Robert Benson born about 1806 was born in Richmond. On the 1871 census, Surrey had been added later. However the 1841 census sees Robert living in Surrey and according to the census he was not born in the county. His son, Robert Benson was born about 1833 and I later find him in one of the census as being born in Ripon.
I have access to the census returns but i am looking for baptism/marriage dates etc. I believe Robert senior married Elizabeth ? and Robert junior married Sophia Dumbarton in 1858 ( he was living in London by then).
Any help greatly appreciated

I am looking for any info on the Brooker family born in Liverpool. My husband's X4 great Grandfather, James Brooker, was born in 1815, Liverpool, the son of William Brooker & Esther Gorton. We know that James moved to Cumberland and was a well known ship carver, winning a medal at the 1851 Great Exhibition.
