Good morning

I'm trying to trace the birth of  Ivy Ellen Power believed born in India  c. 1916 in Rawlpindi.  Her parents:

William and Ellen (maiden name not known).  William worked for British Farms Commission.

Later in her life Ivy married in 1936, indicating that she was in India for some time:

GRO Index of Army Marriages 1881-1955

Carew  Roy P H       Power        Peshawar   1936 (page) 254
Power Ivy E        Carew        Peshawar   1936 (page) 254


I'm a little out of my depth in India .... can anyone help?

Many thanks

David

Hi all

Does anyone have access to the American Genealogical Database Index and can help me find as much information on the Hallowell lineage in Boston, town of Hallowell, Massachusetts and Maine.  This is the family

William Hallowell, wife unknown, had a son Benjamin Hallowell. 
 
Benjamin Hallowell married Mary Stocker.  They had the following children:
 
Benjamin born 1699 (Ship builder) Boston

Mary born 1695

William born 1700

Joseph born 1702

Sarah born 1705

Samuel born 1707

Benjamin Hallowell (Shipbuilder) married Rebecca Briggs, Their children and who they married in brackets are:

Rebecca (Edward Blake)
Benjamin Hallowell (the commissioner) (Mary Boylston whose father was the father of immunisation)) b. 1724 / d. 1799.
Sarah born in 1727. She died in 1809 (Samuel Vaughan)),
Anne 1751 (Gould PASTON)
Briggs (Hannah Gardiner???)
Joseph
Mary (Thomas Laurences)
Samuel
Robert (Hannah)

I am also looking for immigration information concerning the Hallowells into the New England Area 1620-1670 to fit this family.  The only event I can find (not sure how likely though) is:

Hugh Hallowell is a passenger on the Mathew (Master Googladd) in 1635 from London to St Christopher (now known as St Kitts)

 I am really grateful for any help I can get

Afternoon All

I'm getting a bit stuck on tracing back Thomas Henry Masters born in St Cleer, Cornwall in 1872.  I've got him on the 1911 census in St Cleer and his marriage in Sep Q 1898 Liskeard.  Unfortuanately my firewall prevents me searching the 1901 census and I can't find him anywhere else.

Can some kind soul help out?

Thank you

David

Evening All

Having real problems getting started on this one.  We know that Ellen Carter was born in 1923 in Kent and her parents were Amy Pilcher and Mac Carter also we believe from the same area.  Ellen was one of lots - about 11area we think (names of siblings that come to mind are jim, Elsie and Arthur).

We would be grateful for any bmd and census information.

Kind regards

David
