Limerick / Crecora church - can you help?
« on: Sunday 25 March 07 15:09 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Does anyone live near to Crecora Church? I have just found out that both of my paternal grandparents are buried side by side in the graveyard at Crecora and I wondered if anyone local would be able to see if they can find their gravestones and send me the details?

Any help would be greatfully received.

Their names are Michael and Alice (nee Devaney) Kennedy. Michael died in 1980, Alice died before this but I am not sure of the exact year.

Many thanks

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Ada Mary Duncan Dives c1875 - Brick Wall !!!
« on: Thursday 24 August 06 16:52 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Hoping someone can help me with a brick wall that I have come across with the above lady.

Details I have are:

14th November 1900

Ada married Henry Sudbury in Gorleston, Norfolk. Ada's age is shown as 25. Residence at time of marriage Islington. Father's name and occupation - George Dives.  Distiller.

1901 census

Ada and Henry living in Gorleston with Henry's son Frederick from previous marriage (to Ellen Vandervoren).  Henry was born in Cloat Lane, London.  Ada's place of birth is simply listed as London.


***

So far I have found no other trace of Ada [or her father] in any other census or in the GRO indexes for her birth.

Is anyone able to suggest a next move ? Any help would be appreciated.

Dorset / Austin and Griffen Families, Great Canford
« on: Thursday 20 July 06 09:51 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Looking for any information on the Dorset branch of my family tree!

GEORGE AUSTIN (born about 1809 in Ashington) married
ANN GRIFFEN (born 1814 in Corfe Mullen) in March 1831 in Great Canford.

I have found the family living in Great Canford in the 1841 and 1851 census, and then Ann living in Wimborne Minster (as a widow) in 1861.

Ann's parents were JOHN and SARAH GRIFFEN, but this is all I have so far.

Any information anyone can pass on would be most appreciated.

Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / George Cousens of Burghclere???
« on: Monday 03 July 06 10:16 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Can anyone help me find another elusive relative?

I'm trying to find baptism records of GEORGE COUSENS born about 1845.  Herein lies my problem:

In the 1901 census it says he was born in Barrick, Wiltshire
In the 1891 census it says Wiltshire
In the 1881 census it says Newbury, Berkshire
In the 1871 census it says Newbury, Berkshire
In the 1861 census it says Burghclere, Hampshire
In the 1851 census it says Burghclere, Hampshire

So far I have obtained a certificate for a George Cousens in Newbury, Berkshire born around that time but it wasn't him.  I have also tried Wiltshire but no luck so far.

Does anyone have access to the Burghclere parish registers that could do a look up for me?

I have tried the Kingsclere website and can't find him on their either.

It appears that his family moved around a lot.  He has brothers that were born in Gloucester, more in Berwick Basset and finally a sister born in St Mary Extra.

His father was Richard Collier Cousens and his mother was Elizabeth Ann Digweed.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

Can anyone help me find marriage details for the above person.  The info I have on him is as follows:

Born 13 jul 1788 in Sandhurst, Kent

Father = John Dunk
Mother = Elizabeth (Mary) Weller

George married either MARJORIE or MARYANNE (different sources have different names) in approximately 1818 in Etchingham ??

They had 2 children that I know of, Agnes Paulina Dunk and Louisa Dunk. They were both christened 24 Jan 1819 in Etchingham.

Any help or advice would be greatfully appreciated.
