Shetland / Shetland Historical Records

« on: Saturday 06 December 14 18:01 GMT (UK) »

Hi

I am looking into Shetland names and was wondering if anybody has come across any historical records from the time frame 1100 to early 15th century which lists many names of individuals living on Shetland Islands. This would be things like Tax rolls, court records, assize rolls etc. The more names included the better.

Thank You

Cambridgeshire / Cambridgeshire Parish Records

« on: Friday 20 December 13 13:45 GMT (UK) »

Hi There,

We are currently completing a marriage sample across the country between 1600-1625 of all the grooms surnames.

In Cambridgeshire 125 parishes have been completed, the following 43 have not been completed:
Ashley, Barton, Cambridge Holy Trinity, Cambridge St Clement, Cambridge St Mary the Less, Childerley, Chippenham, Ely Holy Trinity, Ely St Mary, Fen Ditton, Fordham, Foxton, Great Abington, Harlton, Kennett, Kneesworth, Landbeach, Leverington, Little Abington, Little Eversden, March, Mepal, Newton, Outwell, Sawston, Shingay, Snailwell, Stetchworth, Stretham, Swaffham Bulbeck, Trumpington, Tydd St Giles, Waterbeach, Wentworth, West Wratting, Weston Colville, Westwick, Whittlesey St Andrew, Whittlesey St Mary, Wicken, Wisbech St Peter, Witcham, Witchford.

Does anybody know where a database or a list of the marriages in any of these parishes can be found online or alternatively where image of the original records exist online? FamilySearch.Org has been exhausted. Websites like FreeReg and FindMyPast are not useful as the surname field is required to be inputted and therefore the complete sample cannot be transcribed.

Due to the size of the sample, paying for CD's of parish records is out of the question.

Any help at all would be appreciated.

Thank You.

Essex Completed Lookup Requests / Surrage/Burridge problems

« on: Sunday 24 November 13 16:07 GMT (UK) »

I'm having problems with Surrage being mis-copied as Burridge or Burrage.

I'm looking for Alice Surrage, daug. of Richard John Surrage and believe I have found them on the 1891 census:

Richard Burridge abt 1835    Limehouse, Middlesex, England    West Ham , Essex
Alice Burridge      abt 1842    Ipswich, Suffolk, England      West Ham , Essex
John Burridge      abt 1866    West Ham , Essex, England    West Ham , Essex
Frances Burridge abt 1869    West Ham , Essex, England    West Ham , Essex
Alice Burridge abt 1875    West Ham , Essex, England    West Ham , Essex
Florence Burridge abt 1878    West Ham , Essex, England    West Ham , Essex
Lilian Burridge abt 1880    West Ham , Essex, England    West Ham , Essex

and again on 1881 census:

Richard Burridge    abt 1835    West Ham, Essex, England    Head    West Ham, Essex
Alice Burridge     abt 1842    West Ham, Essex, England    Wife    West Ham, Essex
Martha Burridge    abt 1864    West Ham, Essex, England    Daughter    West Ham, Essex
John Burridge       abt 1866    West Ham, Essex, England    Son      West Ham, Essex
Francis Burridge      abt 1869    West Ham, Essex, England    Son    West Ham, Essex
Alice Burridge      abt 1875    West Ham, Essex, England    Daughter    West Ham, Essex
Florence Burridge    abt 1878    West Ham, Essex, England    Daughter    West Ham, Essex
Lilian Burridge         West Ham, Essex, England    Daughter    West Ham, Essex

and in 1871:

Alice Burridge     abt 1832    Ipswich, Suffolk, England     Wife    West Ham, Essex
Richard Burridge    abt 1835    Limehouse, Middlesex, England    Head    West Ham, Essex
Martha Burridge    abt 1864    West Ham, Essex, England     Daughter    West Ham, Essex
John Burridge     abt 1866    West Ham, Essex, England    Son    West Ham, Essex
Frances Burridge    abt 1869    West Ham, Essex, England    Son    West Ham, Essex

and Richard is here in 1851:

Richard Burridge    abt 1810    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Head    Limehouse, Middlesex
Caroline Burridge    abt 1811    Rotherhite, Surrey, England Wife    Limehouse, Middlesex
William Burridge abt 1833    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Son    Limehouse, Middlesex
Richard Burridge       abt 1835    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Son    Limehouse, Middlesex
Thomas Burridge   abt 1837    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Son    Limehouse, Middlesex
Caroline Burridge   abt 1840    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Daughter    Limehouse, Middlesex
Henry Burridge       abt 1845    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Son    Limehouse, Middlesex
John Burridge       abt 1848    Limehouse, Middlesex, England Son    Limehouse, Middlesex

Is this a mis-copying error or is this the wrong family?

Berkshire Completed Look ups / 1911 census lookup Reading

« on: Thursday 07 November 13 19:32 GMT (UK) »

Hi I was wondering if any of you could check the 1911 census for Reading for 'William Frances Davis'. He was born abt 1886 in St. Giles, London and is a 'Warehouse Man' and a 'boarder'. I would like to know who he is living with and if there is any obvious relations living with him.

Thank You.
