There are births of twin girls Catherine and Mary Elizabeth to George Jenkins (Wire worker) and Bridget Collins in Lurgan in 1910

I'd normally check the census at this point but it's not working today.

Yes thanks these are 2 of their daughters. I've found the death for Catherine in 1910 but not Mary.

On my husbands grandfathers birth cert in Scotland his parents have stated that they were married in 1896 in Maid Street Chapel in Dublin. The child was given his fathers surname but then there is a corrected entry and the child is given his mothers surname. I'm wondering if the parents weren't married at all. Does anyone know if Maid Street Chapel existed? Thanks.

Hi, I have just joined the site while looking for information on my paternal great grandparents and it looks like my great grandparents George Jenkins and Bridget Collins also state they were married in Maid Street Chapel, Dublin 3rd March 1896.    My grandfather was Michael Jenkins (b.1897) married to Mary Ann McGuire  in 1916 in Greenock and then remarried to my grandmother Catherine Tinney in 1928.

Thanks for reading


Hi I've messaged you

World War One / Worcestershire Regiment 1st Battalion cause of death

I'm trying to find the cause of death for Private Arthur John Vaughan Reg No 21440 who died 11th March 1916. Does anyone know if this would be recorded anywhere please? I've had a quick google and it looks like the battalion were on the march to Vimy Ridge during this time. Many thanks for any help.

Unfortunately I've not been able to find out anything about James Nevin of Upper Harley Street so I'm not able to confirm whether or not he was indeed a Surgeon. Thanks for your replies.

The only criteria was that the References had to be from "men of good character and upstanding citizens"

Thankyou. I wonder how they established that.

Warsaw Place

I don't think there was ever a Warsaw Place in London. Might it be Warwick Place?

That might be why I've never been able to find it. Thanks I'll have a look at Warwick Place.

My 3x great grandfather joined the Police Marylebone Division in 1846. On his records it states that he was recommended by 2 men. Was there a criteria as to who could recommend someone to the Police to enable them to join? I'm trying to find information on the 2 men, James P Nevin of Upper Harley Streeet and Thomas ?well of Warsaw Place. Thanks.

Thankyou for that suggestion, I hadn't thought of that. I know he worked at Devonport Dockyards so I'll contact their heritage centre and ask.
