Kent / Pembroke Place, CHATHAM, in 1871
« on: Monday 31 January 11 09:31 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to find Pembroke Place in the 1871 census of Chatham. Can anyone help, please?
In 1861 it can be found through an address search on FindMyPast, but not in later censuses. I have an ancestor living there in 1874 so it was still in existence. It was off New Road.
Many thanks

Kent Lookup Requests / Re: Greenwich 1861 census lookup

Hi
Thanks for looking.
Jane's parents, I believe, were Arnold (aka John) Adams and Maria Ann. They were both born (1831/2) and married (1852) in Cambridgshire, but they don't obviously turn up in the census until 1881. Maria Ann is in Bristol and Arnold is visiting her sister in Westminster. Arnold also sometimes used a middle name, Arnold Hall Adams.
Jane Adams married Walter A. Fryer in Bristol in 1878. Their daughter Elizabeth Alice was living with her grandmother Maria Ann Adams in 1881.
I'm thinking that if I can find Jane in 1861/1871 I may find others of the family.
Appreciate any help

Looking for family of Jane Adams, b. 1856/7 in Rotherhithe or Greenwich. Her mother was Maria.
If someone could check the 1861 census for me, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks

Aberdeenshire Lookup Requests / New Deer Kirk Sessions
« on: Monday 06 July 09 12:19 BST (UK) »
Hi
My wife's great grandfather Alexander Gibson was christened in New Deer, Aberdeenshire, on 5 February 1851. His mother Janet Gordon brought him forth "in fornication" to Alex Gibson in Peterhead.
I would very much like to know if the New Deer Kirk Sessions gives any further information, particularly on his father. Living in London I don't know if I can get to Edinburgh for some time. If some kind person is able to look this up for me, I would be immensely grateful.
Very happy to a do London look up in exchange.
Many thanks

England / Marriage of John WILSONand Sophia LONGHURST
« on: Wednesday 26 November 08 17:03 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I've been trying for a long time to find the marriage of John WILSON and Sophia LONGHURST sometime between 1810 and 1818. They were living in Brighton, Sussex, from 1818 to John's death in 1834.
There is no entry in the Sussex Marriage Index and I've tried several other indexes without luck.
John WILSON was born about 1778/9, but I don't know where. Sophia LONGHURST was christened in Ashburnham, Sussex, in 1788.
John may have been connected with the army and is described both as a "forage master" and a "barrack clerk".
I'd be very grateful for any help
