Somerset / Rowland Southwood
« on: Saturday 02 April 16 05:14 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to see what age Martha Rowland Southwood is from a marriage certificate.
I have a copy of the Marriage license, but unfortunately it doesn't say on there.
I am trying to work out if its the mother, or daughter, who married John Simmons at St Martin in the Fields,London Jan qtr 1853.
Martha's maiden name was Martha Rowland, b approx 1795, she married John Southwood in Bridgwater Somerset in 1827, he was sent to Tasmania as convict in 1832.
I know my next step would be to apply for the marriage certificate, but it is costly, so any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Canada / William Benson Turner
« on: Saturday 20 August 11 15:56 BST (UK)  »
Could I ask if anyone has access to Ancestry, and would they be able to look up a Family Tree for William Benson Turner (Rogers's family)? I am trying to see who this family is.  I'm afraid I can't outlay the cost for the yearly access. William Benson Turner b. 1887, my Great Uncle, left Shropshire, UK, to go to Canada in approx 1911-1915. He signed up in 1915 for the Canadian Expeditionary Forces during the First World War. His Father was Thomas and Mother Mary Anne Turner.
Thank you,
Andrea :-)

I am trying to find any family relations of Claude George Cecil Ward.
Born 1899 in Newport, Shropshire. Married Phyllis Chapman, Dec 1924 in Ecclesall Bierlow. Had a brother Frank Thomas Coulton B. 1896, m. to Rosa Jillard 1917 in Willesdon, & sister Winifred Christina Harriet Ward (known as Christine), who married twice, 1. Charles Ernest Proctor 1915 Newport Shrop, 2. Benjamin Thomas Atkins 1939 Oldbury, West Bromich.
Christine died in 1973 in Oldbury. She researched her family (and mine) history back to 1396. I have a write up from a paper in 1953 re the history, but dont know where the research has been passed on to, as I dont think she had children.
I would be happy to find one of her relations.
Cheers

Perthshire / McNab
« on: Friday 30 October 09 13:31 GMT (UK)  »
Hi I have been searching for years and finally found where my ggrandfather came from in Scotland. I was just wondering if there is anyone researching this family as well, as I'm sure there are McNabs in the same area still. The spelling of some names is dubious as they always misspell one or the other.

Robert McNab…b. 1757 B. Perthshire.
Son:
Robert McNab…..b 1792 Blair Atholl, Perthshire, Scotland
Flesher(Butcher) in 1841 Fender Bridge Blair Atholl, later Agricultural Labourer.

Wife: Isabel McGlashan b. 1798 Blair Atholl.

Children:-

John Stewart McNab b. 1819

Robert McNab b. 1821

Peter McNab b. 1823  M. Catherine Robertson, children: Jane, George, John, Thomas & Christina, & Charlotte from previous marriage.

Isobal McNab b. 1825

Alexander McNab b. 1827

James McNab b. 1830

Chirstain McNab b. 1831

Thomas McNab b. 1833… a brother who maybe died.

Thomas McNab b. 1839,  Born Blair Athol, Perthshire, Scotland. Married Leonora Warner Clarke 1872 West Derby, Liverpool. . Died Aged 77, 1917 (from old age) Wallasey, UK.  (My ggrandfather).

I would be grateful for any information.
Cheers

Kent Lookup Requests / Lookup for 1901
« on: Tuesday 30 September 08 12:55 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find the family Ward as follows:
Edwin Ward, Labourer
His wife Cela Ward (nee Lee)
and possibly one child Minnie.
They had four children all born around that date and onwards.
Minnie, Nonnie, Rainy (31st July 1905) and Britannia.
Their address was 17 Garden Cottages, Lower Borough, Chislehurst, Kent ( also listed under Foots Cray)
I cant seem to find the marriage of Edwin and Cela, and I'm wondering if it would have been possible they weren't married, even if it is listed on the birth certificate of Rainy.
Could anyone help me please?
Regards
Andrea
