Armed Forces / Re: James Green 241129 East Lancs Regt Pension Document
« on: Tuesday 19 January 21 13:08 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks MaxD. James Green was discharged in 1918 and according to his pension/service records was first admitted to Netley, then the Lord Derby Hospital in Warrington, then finally the ‘asylum’ in Lancaster. Unfortunately the sheet that probably states his diagnosis is very difficult to read. He remained in Lancaster until his death in 1964 and is buried in Burnley. I will post that paper for you, I have edited it the best I can, in the hope you can shed some light. Many thanks

Michael perhaps  in 1901 Burnley is
in Massey Street as a boarder with son Arthur, perhaps the poster can confirm this

Yes that’s them. Brother Michael Thomas is at Laurel St Hostel Preston in 1901

Thanks Pennine. Massey St was in Burnley. The family ( except John) are at 7 Massey St, Burnley and in 1895 sibling Bernard Green burial at Burnley Cemetery states his abode as Massey St. Do you think ‘ Blackburn’ was written in error?

Lancashire / John Green b 1877 Burnley Help needed
« on: Thursday 31 December 20 13:16 GMT (UK)  »
Hi. Can anyone please help me find John Green. He was born in Burnley on the 20 March 1877 to Michael Green and Ann Donnelly. In 1881 he is living with his mother, who is lodging at 3 Pickup Court Burnley. In 1891 census the family are together at 19 Cow Lane. I have military service records, enlisted 21 May 1895 to the East Lancs Regiment. He was discharged in 1896 for ignorminy. That is where the trail ends, I can find no other information. I have checked Burnley Workhouse records, there is nothing relating to him. If anyone can help it would be really appreciated. Many thanks as always.

Unfortunately Irish registration didn’t start until after this period. I’ve checked parish records, but seeing as the family weren’t catholic, nothing is coming up. Out of all Elihu’s children, the only 2 Baptisms I can’t find are Walter, 1835 Newbridge and Calvin 1825. This leads me to believe that they are most likely to have been born in Ireland.

Thanks MaxD. His son Elihu was born 1827 at Fulford, York. However, his other son Calvin born abt 1825, I cannot find a baptism for. The other children’s births seem to tie in with my list of places.

Armed Forces / Elihu Moss 9th Lancers
« on: Thursday 25 June 20 16:42 BST (UK)  »
My 3x great grandfather, Elihu Moss, born Bristol 1795 was a soldier in the 9th Lancers from 1813 to 1841. I have a list of Barracks they stayed at during those years. My question, would anyone know if the whole regiment would move, or just fragments of it? I am trying to establish whether he was at Ballinrobe Barracks, Ireland in 1825/26. I have his record of service, it just says served at home. Back then Ireland was included in the UK. His son, Walter Moss born 1835 lists his place of birth as Newbridge, Ireland. The regiment were at Newbridge in 1835. Many thanks as always
