Hi All

I was wondering is there anywhere on line i could look at Marriages registered in Docking.

I am trying to ascertain who her father was and his occupation, as well as the date of marriage.

Can anyone advise please.

Hi All

A little input is needed please.

I am looking for information on Alexander James he was born 1919 Bristol RD and his death was registered in 1940 also at Bristol aged 21.

Now I have been talking to his nephew and he remembers when he was little (in the mid 1940's) going into his grandads attic and finding a load of caps (like the ones you are given when you are capped to play for England). They apparently belonged to Alexander.
I have tried googling the name but not much joy.
I have tried the name with Football & Cricket too again no joy as of yet.
His father Samuel Thomas James was welsh. His mother was Jane Scott.
They lived in the Littlehampton area.

any Ideas where else you would receive these sort of caps? private school?
Any ideas welcome, and I will try and pursue all suggestions.

Cheers
Kath

I need help please guys

As you all know i am not just concentrating on my Fewell's but all them  that are on the BMD indexes
I have a Fewell i need help with.

James Fewell (Fuell on 1851) (circa 1803-1813 Moreton End, Essex) and Mary Fletcher (circa 1822-1831 Laindon,Essex)
Children

Katharine Fewell 26/02/1845 Stock (Chelmsford Registration District)
Jeremiah Fewell 24/12/1846 Stock           "                  "             "
Ann Fewell J-M 1849 Chelmsford
James Fewell A-J 1851 Chelmsford
Lucy A Fewell/Fletcher circa 1861 (Stock,Essex according to census)
Mary Fletcher A-J 1853 Chelmsford
William Fewell/Fletcher circa 1854 (Ramsden, Essex according to census)
James Charles Fletcher A-J 1842 Chelmsford (Great Baddow, Essex according to census)

Now this is what is confusing me Mary Fletcher was James Fewell's housekeeper according to the 1851 census (HO107; 1775; 145; 30) she is down as being unmarried even though by this time there have been several children born,(but all listed on the 1851 census as Fletcher). So i ordered 2 of the childrens birth certificates (Jeremiah & Katharine), which came today.

Now because she (or James) states on the census that Mary is the unmarried housekeeper, i expected as they registered a few of the childrens names in Fewell that both parents would be on the birth cert, to make it look like they were married, which they have BUT!! on Katharines birth cert it states her father is James Fewell and her mother is Mary Fewell, late Kelly formally Fletcher.. Now i am assuming Fletcher is her maiden name and that she did indeed marry a mr Kelly (or would it be the other way round?), so why state on the census she is unmarried? IS it possible that Mr.Kelly didn't die and leave Mary a widow, but the marriage broke down and she reverted back to Mary Fletcher?

Then to top it all off on the 1861 census (RG9; 1078; 112; 14 )she states she is Mary Fletcher and is married and all the children appear as Fletcher even though she is still with James Fewell and i have some of the birth certs to say their births were registered as Fewell.

Throw some ideas or reasonings at me guys please, this family have really confused me and they also dissapear after James dies in 1877 (cant find them in 1871 census either) (am awaiting death cert to confirm it's correct James).
There is no marriage on the BMD for James Fewell to a Mary Fletcher or Mary Kelly, and if she did indeed marry a Mr.Kelly when? as the first child born (James Charles Fletcher) is in 1842!

Gis a hand guys please
Thanx

btw i think that James Fewell is the son of William Fewell & Frances Pavett, which would make James the grandson of William Fewell and MArgaret Twin(n)
