Hi Stewart
Thank you so much just what I had hoped for and a starting point for my search (Having met him only once in the 50,s he was allways a mistery figure in the family ) Do you have anything like Gores or Kelly,s directories over there with addresses and occupations ( I would think there are not that many G.Hightons over there so at least it is narrowed down to Jersey once again Stewart Thank you
Regards George

Hi I wonder if anyone can help me my Uncle (Dads eldest brother ) was evidently the black sheep of the family he ran away from home to join the army first the South Wales Borderers then must have been reconsiled with the family (I have a Portrait of him with his mum & dad in uniform )and then his fathers regiment the Kings Liverpool reg. was injured in the first war and we lost sight of him between the wars rumour has it he lived in the Channel Isles between the wars and was big in Tomatoes had to leave when ww2 broke out and moved to London , when his first wife died he came back home for a cousins wedding then moved back to London (Don,t know if he returned to the Channel Isles after the second war Could anyone spot him between the two wars in any of the Cannel Isles Please

Sorry this has been so long but I would like to fill in the gaps

Regards George

Longford / Re: Doherty & Seery Mariage 1800s

Hi Christopher
Don,t know what religeon they were Just asuming they were Protestants, but they could have been anything as it seems my Gr Grandmother had a torrid time worked in the mills of lancashire had a child before marrying my Gr. Grandfather (as Catherine Dougherty ) can,t find her son William who took the name Highton/Huyton
only on the 1871 Prescot census did they say born in Longford but I believe that Alice was an unusual first name in Longford Just going on census ages John would be b.1810/12 Alice 1809/11 the first child recorded John b.1835
so I,m asuming a marriage about 1832/6 so needle and haystack springs to mind the sad part they both died in the Prescot workhouse
Regards George
