Other Countries / john Lawson or John Hamilton lawson

« on: Monday 25 May 20 17:06 BST (UK) »

Hi

i Have currently restarted my research on the lawson family in Jamaica and finding it partically difficult as expected, l would be most gratefully for any help or guidance in my search.

My search if for information on a John Lawson Born around 1800 unsure if he was born in Jamaica or whether he went there at a later date.

records show that he had 2 spouse over a period of time Antionette maiden name unknown and my direct link Amelia Giles. John Lawson and Amelia giles seem to have 3 Daughters Ann Hall Lawson born 1839, Clara Matilda Lawson born 1856 ( My Direct link) and Martha Flueme Lawson born 1854 all in Jamaica. I found that on a baptism record for Ann Hall Lawson in 1843 it states parents John and Amelias abode is recorded as montego bay and Johns occupation was a carpenter.

Any help locating information of them would be very mush appreciated

Thank you
Nadine

Hi
I have posted before concerning this family but have found some additional information which l would be grateful for any help with please , on my previous post l was looking for any information on a john Lawson born around 1829 at a guess that he may have been around the same age as his wife Antoinette from her death record on family search , which also stated she was the widow of john Lawson giving his death before 1899 the time of Antoinette's death and also that john was a dispenser of medicine but unable to confirm his death as can't not find a death record for him at the moment, Johns Daughter Clara Lawson who l also struggled to find her birth record as at first l presumed that Clara's mother was Antoinette but after a lengthy search l found a birth for a Clara Matilda Lawson born 1851 jamaica parents john Lawson and wife Amelia . there was also a record for another daughter Martha Flueme Lawson born 1850 jamaica on family search both of these records state fathers occupation 'Druggist' , There is also a record for a daughter Ann Hall Lawson born 1843 Jamaica unfortunately there is no image l can view for this daughter but does give Amelia's surname as Giles , other then this l can not find any other information on John Lawson or his wife Amelia Giles to help me move any further ,Any help with this however small would be very much appreciated .

Thank you

Europe / william evans france british subject

« on: Thursday 03 September 15 14:39 BST (UK) »

Hi

l am researching my family name of Evans in wales and came across my distant grandfather William Evans Born around 1813 and wife Sarah and Children, l have them in the 1851 living in welshpool wales ,1861 living Newtown wales ,and 1881 Census living Newtown Wales but can not find William Evans and his wife sarah in any other or at all which l thought wouldn't be difficult as the Three census I have it states that William Evans was Born in France and was a British Subject.

Williams Birth place has also become a problem as there is a slight clue on where in France he was born on the 1861 Census the area is there but think it has been transcribed incorrectly and is Transcribed as (Telcancenos France) but l can not find such place connected to France.

Any help with finding the missing Census for William would be most appreciated or indeed any information on him also any suggestions of sites connected to France that l may find helpful will be Very Welcome.

Thank you

Other Countries / Morrison and Allen family jamaica help needed please

« on: Friday 12 September 14 13:28 BST (UK) »

Hi all

l am researching my fathers family tree and would really appreciate some help please as seem to be going round in circles and still not use to searching Jamaican Records,

l am researching a Alexander Morrison who lived and died in Mocho mount Valley Jamaica,
Alexanders death record on familysearch.org it says he died on the 14 April 1954 Mocho Jamaica Spouse Imogene Morrison it is recorded that his age at time of death is 70 giving his birth date as around 1884.

l also found the marriage record on familysearch which show the marriage as being on 18 Feb 1932 but know that Alexander and Imogene had children before marriage one being my grandfather born 1918 the childrens birth records do have Alexander Morrison as being present but the children records show imogenes surname Allen rather then Morrison maybe as at that time they were not married and Alexander is recorded as occupier mount Valley Clarendon, The marriage records states that Alexander is cultivator ? and that Alexander morrisons father is a Edward Morrison and that Imogene Allens father is a David Allen also that Alexander was a bachelor and Imogene a spinster although l have been told that Imogene did have a child before she met Alexander from a previous relation, l have searched for both Alexanders and imogenes births but can not find even possible match although l have found records for other births with a Edward Morrison and a David Allen as fathers but can not seem to link any of them to my Alexander and Imogene.

Any help with locating or linking a Edward Morrison or David Allen to my family would be much appreciated or any suggestion of where to look for them would be amazing.

Kind Regards
