Cornwall Lookup Requests / Lottie IVEY
« on: Tuesday 09 March 10 15:10 GMT (UK)  »
Lottie was my wife's great grandmother. She was born in Illogan Cornwall abt 1894. Parents were "Mary E" b1860 at Phillack and William H(Henry) Ivey b1853 d 1895? Wm H was born in Camborne to Wm and Mary A Ivey
Only record of family seems to be 1901 census..cant find any earlier trace of Mary E or Lottie's siblings (William, Laura, Emily, Albert, Henrietta and Lily). Any ideas most welcome

Kirkcudbrightshire / Black - Dornes
« on: Saturday 19 September 09 11:46 BST (UK)  »
Hi. I am researching my great grandparents and their parents. My GGp's were John Black and Isabella Dornes. John was a Palnackie-born mariner who was drowned in 1891 when his vessel was lost in a storm in the Solway. I have traced his ancestors for quite a way back, but have drawn a bit of a blank with Isabella. She married John in Liverpool in 1881 and they lived in Palnackie, where she died in 1897. Her death registration shows her parents as Matthew Dornes and Helen Ross. I have no idea where they came from and whilst there are quite a few Helen Ross's of the time (circa 1830), try as I may, I can't find a Matthew Dornes. I have tried every way of spelling his surname, without success. Has anyone out there any ideas, or matches
