Herefordshire Lookup Requests / Annie Lewis b1888 Herefordshire
« on: Sunday 13 October 19 18:06 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help me finding a birth for Annie.

From her marriage to Alfred Siddons in 1911 she states her father as Albert Lewis, upholsterer (deceased at time of marriage.

States place of birth as Herefordshire in the 1911 & 1939 census, but lived in Dorset.

She seems to be nowhere before this.

Dorset / Residents of Dorset Boys Industrial School 1891
« on: Saturday 30 March 13 15:38 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyway to find further information on a 'resident' at the Dorset Boys Industrial School, in Milborne. I think one of the boys is connected, but can't really find out any information other than a census transcript for 1891 when he was there. His parents both died, older siblings living with an Aunt, but can't find where the he and the younger ones have gone.

Information if anyone could help is:
Charles J Hunt bc 1876, Weymouth, Dorset. Parents James Hunt (1847-1880) and Louisa Day (1841- 1882) listed in the school 1891 census.

England / Charles James Hunt
« on: Saturday 10 March 12 11:55 GMT (UK)  »
I'm struggling with this man  >:(
The only information I have is from his marriage and daughters birth cert.
Born about 1875
He was in the Royal Navy, as a ships cook. Located at HMS Illustrious, Portland at time of marriage in 1907, to Bessie Ada Chard. In the Weymouth Registry Office.
When his daughter was born he was an Officers Cook. There are no rank numbers. The address at her birth was 58 Newstead Rd, Weymouth.  However on the 1911 census Charles is not there, but Bessie is married.

He has his father as James Hunt. Occ. Drayman on marriage cert.

The only James Hunt, a Drayman (or related) I can find on the census was born in Hampshire, Bessie married but Charles not there, he does appear on the later electoral rolls.

Not sure if this is the correct place, but I am looking for information about Leslie Norman Ferrett born 1914 Hendon, Middlesex and something I've come across suggests he may have emigrated.
He could be on the lists as Leslie Horman Ferret.
