Bedfordshire / Records in Bedford
« on: Tuesday 17 February 09 21:32 GMT (UK)  »
Where do I have to go in Bedford to find if someone was married there? Could I look through the records myself? Also how much would it cost me? Any information and advice welcome.

Thanks

Somerset Lookup Requests / WILLIAMS Family Bath
« on: Friday 06 February 09 11:50 GMT (UK)  »
I am mainly looking for the baptism of Emilie Adrienne Williams born about 1828 in Bath. She was married in Pierrepont Place Chapel in Bath in 1853 which is Roman Catholic. Her father was Joseph Williams. I would also really like to find her mother's name. Could anyone help me?

Thank you

Census and Resource Discussion / Military Original Page Problem - 1911 census
« on: Monday 02 February 09 08:54 GMT (UK)  »
I've been searching for my great-grandfather, William Thomas Craven born 1887, on the 1911 census. I have seen the transcript but cannot access the original page. He was in the military based near Aldershot, so there is no reason it should not be avaliable. Are many other military records like this? Has find my past said anything about it?

Occupation Interests / Can't read this occupation
« on: Sunday 02 November 08 18:16 GMT (UK)  »
I got a marriage certificate but cannot read the occupation of the bride. Can anyone help? I thought it might be dressmaker, especially as her husband was a tailor. But it does not really look like dressmaker. Any suggestions welcome.

Somerset Lookup Requests / Emilie Adrienne WILLIAMS born Bath 1828
« on: Thursday 23 October 08 16:58 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find one of my antecedents Emilie Adrienne Williams born about 1828 in Bath, Somerset and married George Stewart. I'm afraid this is the extent of my knowledge. I'm very interested in finding her parents, especially her mother. Any advice or information very welcomed.

I am having a lot of trouble finding when my great grandfather was born. Could I access a voting register for him from the 30s or 40s and what would it tell me? Any information very welcome

Worcestershire / Ann Ponsonby born about 1793
« on: Wednesday 27 August 08 12:41 BST (UK)  »
I have found an antecedent named Ann. I believe her maiden name to be Ponsonby as her son had it as his middle name. She was born about 1793 in either Ledbury or Grafton Flyford (I have found two conflicting census records ???). Any information or advice very welcome.

Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Martello Tower in Dover?
« on: Friday 15 August 08 22:47 BST (UK)  »
I've found some ancestors who I believe lived in a Martello Tower because their address was 1 Martello Tower. Their neighbours lived at 2 Martello Tower but the rest of the neighbours lived on Tower Hill. Was/Is there a Martello Tower in Dover?
Any information welcomed

Thanks

Somerset / Hat and Feather's Court/Yard, Bath
« on: Friday 15 August 08 22:40 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to find information about the Hat and Feather's Court in Walcot also in the parish of St. Swithin's, Bath. I have found it mentioned in the censuses of 1841, 51 and 61. Does anyone have any information or come across it before?
