Dublin / Horatio Folliott Nelson / John Nelson / Finglas, 1700s
« on: Sunday 21 October 18 23:39 BST (UK)  »
Hello all,
I am trying to trace the nelson name, which is my father's surname.

My 5th great grandfather is a man named Horatio Folliott Nelson, born abt. 1776 in Finglas, Dublin. He died 16th July 1822.

He married a Maria Walker in 1814

I have his father down as John Nelson and mother as Jane Nash
I have managed to trace a bit on the Nash side

But my main concern is I am stuck on John Nelson.

I would really love to go as far back as I can on the Nelsons.

All I know is that John Nelson was born around 1750 in Dublin, married Jane Nash 17th May 1776 in Dublin and he died 13th august 1808.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !! :) :)

Hi everyone,

I am trying to locate Henry Smith's (my 5th great grandfather) mother and father.

He was born about 1811 in Fressingfield, he married Mary Ann Smith who was born abt 1811 in  Creetingham.

They had a daughter named Mahala, born abt 1844 and she married John Owen Buck
does anyone know the origin of the name Mahala in the UK?

thanks!

Cheshire / Cheshire Families Buck & Elliott
« on: Thursday 26 July 18 14:34 BST (UK)  »
Hello!

My name is Georgia and I am struggling to find my great grandparents' parents.

My granddad was Philip J Slack (b. 20 dec 1947 in wilmslow, d. aug 2007 in stockport)
His father: Bernard H Slack (b. 27 nov 1913 in Bucklow, d. sep 1976 in Manchester)
His mother: Elsie Buck (b. 13 aug 1915 / 1917? in Stalybridge, d. unknown?)

Bernard and elsie married in dec 1936 in Bucklow, Cheshire.

After looking at Bernard's birth record, his mother's maiden name is Hood. I can't find her first name or even locate her. Again I cannot locate his father either.

The same with Elsie. I was looking on CheshireBMD and noticed there was a record that said her mother's maiden name was Elliott. No surname or forename of her father and no forename for her mother.

I can't locate a marriage for an Elliott and a Buck, so this leads me to believe Elsie was illegitimate?

I really need help with these matters because I am stuck :(
Thank you
