Suffolk Lookup Requests / Susan Wing Mildenhall
« on: Saturday 07 October 17 07:54 BST (UK)  »
Hi I'm researching Susan Wing, born Mildenhall around 1807 according to a later census (1861 when she was married to a John Scrase in Hackney).  She married him in  1/12/1842 in Saint Bride Fleet St ,London her name given as Susan Wing.  They had 2 children Mary Ann and William, both born in Hackney Union (workhouse).

I haven't been able to find a Susan Wing born in Mildenhall at around that time so wondering if she married a Wing.  Have found 4 children with parents Susan and Charles Wing all born Mildenhall - between 1820 and 1831 (Family Search), but no luck finding a marriage.

If anyone could help with a marriage look up for Charles and Susan that would be great.  Alternatively Susan might have been born a Wing so a look up on that if the marriage doesn't pan out.

Thanks in advance
Rochelle

Armed Forces / Re: coastguard in 1840s Birling Gap

thanks,
I have wife/wedding details I believe married 1826 in Newhaven, her maiden name Ramsay first name Marion, they are a Newhaven fishing family as are many of my ancestors.  I can trace her family back but having trouble with Duncan, as there are several possibilities for a Duncan McInnes around that date of birth throughout Scotland. Looking at Maning tradition hasn't helped either... Was hoping coastguard records could help with more detail on birth date/place. Still Interesting to see the detail on his service records, thanks for that!

Armed Forces / coastguard in 1840s Birling Gap
« on: Thursday 24 August 17 08:17 BST (UK)  »
Hi I am researching an ancestor Duncan McInnes/McInnis/McInnish,  born in Scotland but served with The coastguard in England.  He is listed in 1841 census at Birling Gap with his family, and may have also served in Sholden,Kent as he has a daughter born there in 1833.  He had children born in Sussex in 1837 and 1841 at least. He returned to Scotland at some point and died of a fever in Newhaven in May 1848.  I have searched on the Genuki coastguards site but he isn't listed there.  I would like to know where he was born and date of birth if possible and any further information there is or how to find it.  I have had a look at the TNA stuff on Line but not sure where to start to find details on personnel.
On his death record he is called up as a seaman (C.G.S) which I assume is also coast guard service.

Any pointers gratefully received, I am in New Zealand so searching archives difficult.
