Would someone with access be able to copy the info from a census in Guelph, Wellington, Canada West of Charles Chase, born in England and being around 63 in 1861 please? He's on at least that and the 1871 census too.

Any help is appreciated

Immigrants & Emigrants - General / emigration from England to Germany in 1860s
« on: Wednesday 22 July 15 11:15 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm looking for the passenger lists from people living in Suffolk in the early 1860s. They moved to Magdeburg Germany before 1865/6. It was a business called Garratt's of Leiston and a lot of their workers moved. Some of the families included a Ralph (surname) and Furrongton/Farrington/Ferrington. Would anybody be able to help in finding any extra info on their journey please?

Family History Beginners Board / Any German's able to translate this please??
« on: Tuesday 11 November 08 13:38 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I have 6 birth certificates from my ancestors in Germany and would like to know what they say and have tried writing them down and doing a translation but it is difficult to do it as there is umlauts.

Sorry for the bad quality but I don't have a scanner and had to take a photograph of it.

Thank you for your help

Ben

Sorry it is so small, if anyone can do it PM me and I will email you the copy that is bigger but is too big to fit on here.

Europe / Ralph's To/From Germany
« on: Saturday 01 November 08 23:11 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I'm new to this site and have took a quick look around and found it very helpful.

I am looking for my 3 X great Grandfather who was born Suffolk in 1837 and in about 1866 moved over to Magdeburg Germany with a company called Garrett's Of Leiston along with his future wife (and my future (or past) 3 X great Grandmother) Gertrude Elizabeth Farrington/Furrington/Ferrington (1845) and her father Lazarus (1820) and her mother Maria Coleman (1820) and all her brother's and sister's (Thomas (1844), George Herbert (1848), James (1848), Ellen James (1854) & Harry (1857)).

My 2 X great Grandfather was born in Magdeburg Germany in 1880 and had seven brother's and sister's (Alfred John (1870), Alice Gertrude (1871), Robert William (1873), Arthur Charles (AKA Karl, 1878), Lucy (1883), Edwin (no info), Maurice (No info) & Herbert (No info)) and he came over in about 1898 along with Arthur Charles (AKA Karl) and they lived in the same area of Leeds as each other, just down the road from where I live now. They are both on the 1901 Census and Arthur Charles is down as Karl and there was a rumor of Karl being killed in WWI for cowardice but we have been in contact with his daughter Elsie (1919) and she gave us all the info on Walter & Karl's brother's & sister's and why the family moved to Germany but she isn't replying to our emails anymore. The youngest sibling, Lucy, came over to Germany in about 1903 and married a Harry Lazenby (1883) and we have got all the info about her as we have contacted her 2 X great grandchild.

But on Walter's marriage certificate to Eliza/Ann Eliza/Annie Eliza Ashbridge in 1905 it has Karl as a witness and says as fathers name Moses Ralph, Carpenter, Diseased so we know he died before 1903 but we don't know anything about any other brother or sister and why only they came over.

Could anyone help, does anyone have the Germany (is it Worldwide) Ancestry or have access to the German Census and be able to look it up for us about Moses and/or the rest of the people please??


Thank you so much for your help.

Ben
