Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Kelshall
« on: Friday 21 November 08 00:08 GMT (UK)  »
Part of the problem is that Chapman is such a common name.  I have ordered 3 death certs and none has come back as my Samuel which is why i am hoping that someone can check the parish records for me. Kelshall was, and still is, a very tiny village and most of the Chapmans that lived there are in our family tree.

Maybe i need to convince other half that he really does need a weekend away to Herfordshire. ;)

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Burial - CHAPMAN - Kelshall
« on: Thursday 20 November 08 22:19 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyone out there who could check for a burial record in Kelshall parish records.  Looking for the death of Samuel Chapman who was born in Kelshall in approx 1819. We have him on the 1851 census but then we lose him completely. His son James Gibbons Chapman is living with grandparents on the 1861 census in Kelshall. Samuels wife Charlotte died in london in 1852 shortly after James was born and we believe he probably returned to Kelshall with his son and wonder if he died between then  and 1861 because we cannot find him on the 1861 census at all.

Thats not him. We'd already investigated that one to the extent of ordering a possible marriage cert from them but turned out to be a dead end.

Its only something i found on Genes Reunited.  It doesn't show folio numbers or anything and i don't have access to ancestry where it directs me to.

His daughter died after the 1851 census, his wife in 1852 and his son James is living in Kelshall Hertfordshire with grandparents on the 1861 but Samuel just seems to have disappeared. Cannot even find a death for him, well not without ordering loads of certificates!!!!

It was on Genes Reunited so it was a longshot that someone on here would be able to find it ??? ???

He is really causing us a puzzle.

Sorry no. But Kelshall is a tiny village (even now) in Hertfordshire so if the census shows his birth place i would be fairly sure of it being my ancestor

Is it possible for someone to check the 1861 census for a Samuel Chapman, born 1819 Kelshall Hertfordshire.  I have found an entry for man of the same name in the St. Faiths district of Middlesex.

Hope someone can help.
