London and Middlesex / Help Finding a London Freedom of City Admission Paper
« on: Sunday 02 February 14 16:02 GMT (UK)  »
Apparently, according to his two son's admission papers in the London Freedom of City Admission papers collection on Ancestry, my grandfather George Cremer was made a freeman on 15 Dec 1779 (in book L).  He belonged to the company of Fishmongers.

However when I did a search for George I found nothing.  I tried to look manually--lots of the transcriptions aren't transcribed very well and the papers themselves are out of order. So no luck yet. 

I was wondering if any of you could help me find the record?  I'd like to know for sure who George's father is and his occupation.

I did find a record on British Origins London Apprenticeship abstracts that has a George Creamer apprenticing to James Cripps of the Fishmongers on 27 Nov 1772 which I guess would make sense if he was admitted 7 years later. 

Thanks for your help!  Laverdiere

Derbyshire / Nathaniel Pembroke of Bakewell
« on: Thursday 09 August 12 14:02 BST (UK)  »
I have a maybe ancestor named Nathaniel Pembroke who married in London in 1782 and said he was from Bakewell, Derby.  Can someone look him up for me?  I've looked but no luck so far in Bakewell.

Thanks, Laverdiere

Pembrokeshire / Robert Pembroke of Pembrokshire
« on: Thursday 09 August 12 02:12 BST (UK)  »
I have a Robert Pembroke/Pembrook, clerk in the dockyard, having a child baptized at St Mary's church in Pembroke, Pembrokshire in 1817.  I think this is the same family as the one I have in Deal, Kent before and after this date. The Deal family has a ten-year gap in kids.  Anyway I was wondering if anyone could tell me more about this Robert Pembroke to help me verify if it is the same as my Kent family.  (The Robert Pembroke of Kent was also a clerk in the dockyard and married to a Mary).

Thank you for your help!  Laverdiere

Cheshire Lookup Requests / Wistaston Monumental Inscription look up please
« on: Saturday 28 April 12 12:59 BST (UK)  »
If anyone has access to the monumental inscriptions for St Mary Wistaston could they look up any inscriptions for Robinson and Perrin please? (Specifically John Robinson buried 1825 and Randle Perrin buried 1826). I found their burials there in the Cheshire records on FindmyPast and am interested if they had any inscriptions.

Thank you!

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Towse family of Heckfield
« on: Monday 02 April 12 23:50 BST (UK)  »
On the 3 Sept 1747 John Towse (or Touse) married Sarah Burgiss in Heckfield, Hampshire.  According to IGI and transcriptions at FindmyPast they had nine children: John (1748), Katherine (1750), Joseph (1752), Mary (1755), William (1757-1757), James (1758-1839), Elizabeth (1761), Sarah (1764-1850) and Fanny (1767-1787).

Sarah married Tryal Englefield and became my xtimes grandmother.  She seems to have named her daughters after her sisters.

But I'm wondering what happened to her siblings.  Does anyone know how I can find out?

Thanks! Laverdiere
