Berkshire Lookup Requests / For Sam W and anyone else interested - Elizabeth Mary Henderson
« on: Wednesday 16 August 17 17:21 BST (UK)  »
This lady lived at Park Lodge, Castle Crescent, reading.  She died in November 1900 and is buried with her husband Charles in Reading Old Cemetery.  In her will she asks to be buried with him and "my little daughters" - the first I've heard of them - and so I'm keen to try to find her grave and any headstone details.  She had two sons - Charles Edward Turberville Henderson a successful lawyer (died 1917) the other Frederick Arlesey Turberville Henderson (died 1919) a bankrupt who was in and out of the workhouse for the last ten years of his life.  They may also be buried there and Charles was briefly married with his wife dying young, 24 in 1911.  Elizabeth refers to being buried in"our brick grave at Reading Cemetery".  Any info would be very welcomed.

US Completed Requests / Look up in San Francisco Call Database
« on: Monday 10 April 17 13:40 BST (UK)  »
My ancestor Fergus Ferguson Kennedy emigrated from Liverpool in March 1887 to begin a new life working for the Risdon Iron and Locomotive Company in San Francisco.  His family followed him a few months later.  By 1890 he was dead and his death is recorded on the SF Call database.  The reference I have is:
Fergus F Kennedy died 1890 D-3507
I wondered if this is a document someone would be able to look at and report back what it says - just to get an idea of what happened.  I know his wife and children had returned to Liverpool, England by 1891.

Thank you in anticipation.

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / Hanley - William and Penelope Savage
« on: Thursday 30 March 17 21:09 BST (UK)  »
I would be delighted to receive any information about William or Penelope Savage living in Hanbury around 1716.  They had a daughter Penelope born in Hanbury 1716 and I'm hoping there may be other children in parish records or on gravestones. Thank you to anyone taking the trouble to do a look up.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / 1891 and/or 1901 census Henderson, Wood Green COMPLETE THANK YOU ALL!
« on: Friday 07 March 08 20:38 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking (and failing miserably) to find:

Frederick Arlesley Talfourd Henderson born c 1867
His wife Mabel Mildred Henderson born c 1871 Married 1890 Islington
Their son Bertram Talfourd Henderson born 1891 (March Quarter) Wood Green, Edmonton
Their daughter, Mabel Kathleen E.M. (possibly Elizabeth Mary) Henderson, born 1892, Wood Green, Edmonton.

I can find Fredericks mother and brother in Reading, which is where he was born, but no sighn of this family.  Anything would be appreciated.

Roxburghshire / Robinson/Young in Greenlaw
« on: Friday 15 February 08 16:29 GMT (UK)  »
My mother remembers visiting family members who lived on the High Street, opposite the Town Hall? in Greenlaw.  We think they were Jock and Dot, and we think that Dot was previously a Young.  This was about 1980 and somebody out there may know something about Dot, who I imagine was about 65-70 at the time.  I think she moved south to live with her son (Sandy?) and we would love to know if she was a Young and if so, who her parents were so we can fit her into the right line.  Any info gratefully received.

« on: Monday 21 January 08 19:32 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone have access to Monumental Inscriptions for Nenthorn Old Cemetry?  I'm looking for any of the Young family buried 1850 onwards, in particular Isabella, a child buried around 1862, daughter of Willaim Currie Young and Elizabeth Black.
Thanks
