 Hi Everyone

I am desperately seeking a look up for a James Dunn parents names Andrew Dunn and Catharine Reid.

His marriage certificate states he was 43 in 1897 when he married Agnes Elizabeth Davy in Tasmania Australia, and stated his birthplace as London.

From Census records i have found he and sister Sophia Dunn where both born in England where the other siblings were born in Scotland.  I am keen to buy the birth certificate but not having any luck pin pointing the right one.

Sophia was christened in Hadlow, Kent if that is any help.

Look froward to hearing from you all
TIA

Hi Everyone,

I am hoping that someone may be able to shed some light on a major problem l have of finding a death for a "James Mather Milne Henderson", he was still alive in July 1899 at the death of his wife Elizabeth Malcolm Henderson nee Mackenzie, McKenzie as he was the informant on her death certificate.  But after this he seems to have diminished into thin air. His occupation is a Plumber.

He had 4 children, James McKenzie Henderson born 1883 Aberdeen Scotland, William Gordon born 1891 Aberdeen Scotland, Jane Simpson Henderson born 1893 London, Charles Phillip Henderson born 1897 London. James McKenzie lived in Aberdeen with his maternal grandparents and Jane Simpson is also there in 1901 census, but there's a family story there as to how she got there. the other two boys are with the SIMPSON family and the census records are recorded as adopted William Gordon is not in the 1901 census but is there in 1911 census with his brother Charles Philip.

James marries as "James Mather Henderson in 1892 London to Elizabeth Malcolm Mackenzie.

He joined the navy in 1885 and signed up for 12 years, but what l believe he bought his way out in 1891, and that's all the record showed.

So why are the boys adopted and where is there father James?

I would love if some one could help me find a death for James, and thank you all for any assistance that you can offer.

Kind regards

Hi Everyone

I am hoping that someone is able to offer some assistance with a look up for a birth of William or William Henry Brown between 1830 and 1845 with parents name William or William Henry Brown and Charlotte Ball, his marriage certificate says he was born Manchester England.

Hello everyone

I am hoping someone might be able to find my William Brown, all i know is he was born in London in 1824.  He was transported for 7 years for stealing in 1884 he left and arrived in Australia, he was tried in London in 1840.  He married another convict Jane Montgomery in 1849 in Tasmania, Australia.

I would dearly love to find out his parents names and find where he was in the 1841 census records.

Also where was he and what was he doing in the 4 years before he was transported to Australia.

Look forward to hearing from you all

Kind regards

Jennifer
