Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Re: The Silver Hatchet Gang?
« on: Wednesday 05 November 08 22:36 GMT (UK)  »
They met in a back room of one of Hull's pubs in Hull. A colleage at work was told that they only allowed children in to serve them (less chance of overhearing something they should'ent!) - one of which was a relative who told him about them. Story goes they were effectively wiped out in the first world war.

I'll ask him tomorrow see if I can find more out

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) Lookup Requests / Re: Thomas Jameson Hull 1840ish

Thanks,

I scanned IGI many times but seem to have completely missed this one!!! Unfortunatly, I have some evidence his fathers name is Joseph (born 1789 don't know where), possibly with a brother called William. Still, there are many twists and turns so you never know. I have no location info apart from:

Eleanor (Thomas's wife) born York
Mary (William's wife - possible brother / uncle) born Durham
Thomas and Eleanor married Rotherham
All died in Hull

Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: Eleanor Wise Marriage York?
« on: Sunday 14 September 08 19:34 BST (UK)  »
Many thanks to all, Got the marriage certificate and 99% sure it is correct. Thomas has a profession of coachsmith - which I know is correct - and Eleanor Wise (or Ellen on the certificate) has a father named John which was my best guess based on Wise families in York at the correct date. The problem it gives me is Thomas's father is Joseph. I had no leading contenders for the father based on census / igi etc. But i have very few Josephs around. Still one step at a time. Really need a lead on the location and father now....back to the drawing board!!

thanks again for the help

Thanks,

Thomas is born in the country. I have sent an e-mail to the registrar in Rotherham but the Rotherham district looks quite big and split up - depending on where in the district they were married, the records could be in Sheffield or Rotherham - still its a start! I have several references to Eleanor born in York and there is a family that "fits the bill" but can't be sure! Fathers name could be John Wise and Mother Charlotte.

Ultimitly I am after identifying the right family for Thomas - there are a number of near possibilities in Hull but nothing fits well - I suspect he is from elsewhere (I suspect Nth Yorkshire or Durham)

Wow,

where did you find this? No links to Rotherham that I know of but i do know the Jamesons travelled quite a bit (know almost nothing about the Wise')

any suggestions to follow-up?

thanks again

Hi,

Looking for Eleanor Wise (christened St Dennis York 1818) marriage to Thomas Jameson, living in Hull 1841 with child <1 year old. Can't find any reference to the mariage on BMD and Thomas Jameson died before 1851 census so no clues to his birthplace.

any help appreciated

Durham Lookup Requests / Link between Durham Jamesons and Hull?
« on: Friday 15 August 08 00:46 BST (UK)  »
I wonder if anybody can help? I have traced back to Thomas Jameson born approx 1817 (don't know where). He was married to Eleanor Wise, probably between 1838 and 1841. She is from York. In 1841 they are living with their first born (William) in Hull with William and Mary Jameson and other siblings. Temptation is to assume this is Thomas's parents. He died (i think) in 1847 and Eleanor remarried - I have all the info on the family from there on. Researching William and Mary is difficult because William is also missing (resume died) from 1851 census. Mary is however from Darlington (Durham).

Just to complicate more in 1851 Mary is living with Jane Balmer who is noted as daughter (I believe this is Jane Bulmer married in Hull). Jane is not howeve on the 1841 census in Hull but could be in Kirkby Fleetham living with a Thomas and Elizabeth Jameson!!

Any leads would be helpful

Ok, easiest is to wait for John to come back on. I Will post my inquiries separately - also looking for anything Nordass as all Nordasses are directly related and I have some connections to make I can't currently be sure of. One group around around Beeford, Atwick area, another further South! - still will post these separately when I can get my head around the right questions to ask!

thanks for all the help

John
