How annoying! I could only see the non image ones when I searched. Have just found them now though. Thanks for letting me know.  :)

Thanks Susan, that's good to know. I will email Holy Trinity Cathedral and see what they say.

i know this is an old thread,

but if you go on the non conformist registers site, you can search for the baptisms. i found my ancestor with 2 entries, a year ago. i thought they were the same image, like ancestry does sometimes. so i only downloaded 1 page. it was the basic register information.

then 2day i decided to get the other image, and it was the admission register. it gave the names of the wives, their husbands names and occupations, her due dates, when the baby was born and christened, plus its name. and when the mother was discharged. it also gave the name of the person who recommende her to the hospital.

and this is 1801. so i think you could luck if you didnt try that site!!

Brilliant - thanks for this. Really useful. Ancestry has an index only record and we all know how accurate they can be, so it was great to be able to look at the actual entry, especially the admission register. My relative was bought in already in labour, which seems to be quite unusual.

Hi Suzannah,

Any chance you could look up the address Lenville, 147 Island Wall Whitstable for me in the first two? Or perhaps Lenville, West Beach? Not sure if they are the same place or not.

Many thanks
Jo

Hi Valnan

Did you get anywhere with your search for residents of 41 Colebrooke Row? I've just started looking again. Were Islington Library able to help?

Many thanks
Jo

Yes, thanks I had. There seem to be so few sites about Trinidad, which is a shame. But reading through one of those pages, the lack of conservation effort surrounding the old registers I guess I am not surprised there is nothing digitalised. I was just hoping that one of the churches might have done something independently with their records, or one of the newspapers perhaps.

I have a family mystery that I am trying to solve. My 2 x Great Grandmother, Mary Ann Bradfield emigrated to Trinidad sometime between 1901 and 1915 to be with her brother Arthur Bradfield who had moved out at the turn of the century.

She was there when her daughter was married at Port of Spain Cathedral in 1917, by which time she herself had married Jack Robinson Palmer, an analytical chemist possibly in the sugar cane business. I would love to know the details of her wedding or her time in Trinidad. All I know is that she lived in Cipriani Boulevard in the Port of Spain.

Is there any way I can find out about her life in Trinidad or any record of her life? I have found some of the ships records for Mary and Arthur but that is all.

Many thanks, Jo  :)

Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Stone nr Dartford Lookups

Hi my Grandfather was William Henry Thomas Gaiger, he worked at the Blue Circle Kent Works cement plant at Stone for 44 years and retired in Oct 1967. He lived in the Old Rectory St. Mary's road Stone.

My Mother was Constance Ada Blanche Sutton, nee Gaiger

All the names you mention are in my family tree.

I used to lived in St. Mary's Road, Stone, 2 aunts and uncles also lived there.

Hi
I have quite a bit of information about your ancestors that I am happy to share if you would like?

I am just curious to know why your mother does not appear in my database of Gaigers! Was she born in Kent? I only have a marriage for William Henry Thomas Gaiger at the age of 48 to Olive E Barnden. Was that your mother's mother or was William married previous to that marriage?

Thanks, Jo
