Clackmannanshire / Re: Where in Scotland was Great Grandfather born
« on: Saturday 17 February 24 14:28 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you again for your replies, so helpful.   I have found a James Walker on the 1881 census in Sandiacre Derbyshire aged 20, a moulder born Scotland. I am puzzled to why he gave different locations in Scotland.  I am going to continue researching with the hints you have given me.

All Saints was part of Birmingham West.  Ladywood is Birmingham. 384 in 1921 was Ladywood Birmingham

George. 1893
Isabelle 1895 my grandmother
Florrie 1897
Kate 1900 (Kate Hannigan was informant on James Walker death cert)

Clackmannanshire / Where in Scotland was Great Grandfather born
« on: Friday 16 February 24 16:21 GMT (UK)  »
On my grandmothers birth certificate her father is named as James Walker.
 The 1891 census (RG12/2437 Aston Manor district 62) states born Scotland.
I know this is him because he was living as a lodger with Elizabeth Lyndon and her family. Their first child was born in 1891. I can find no marriage certificate.

On the 1901 census (RG13/2847 All Saints district 11) he states born Scotland Edinburgh.
On the 1911 census (Ladywood 384/19/18007) he states born Scotland NB
On the 1921 census (384/1/37) he states born Scotland Clackmannanshire

He died in 1928.

Can anyone please suggest where I should start researching for his birth as there are different locations given on the census's.

Thank you so much for your offer of help.
My father was Raymond Dodd DOB 26.12.1916 . His service number is JX224522.

His P&V record states he was DEMS Liverpool 12.01.1945-22.01.1945
                                           SS Atlantic        22.01.1945-21.06.1945
                                           DEMS New York 21.06.1945-05.08.1945

World War Two / SS Atlantic 1945
« on: Friday 21 July 23 19:37 BST (UK)  »
In my fathers Royal Navy service records payment and victualling section it states he served on SS Atlantic between 23 January 1945 -21 June 1945.  (From 22 June 1945 he was D.E.M.S New York).  Can anyone direct me to where I can find information and movement cards of SS Atlantic between the dates Dad served on her.  Research comes up with the Atlantic that sank in 1870. 
Thank you

Warwickshire / Retail Brewer
« on: Sunday 06 June 21 18:28 BST (UK)  »
On the 1851 census my ancestor aged 21 describes himself as a retail brewer.  He lived at 66 Dartmouth Street, Aston.  Does anyone know if this means he sold beer from his home ?
Thank you
