Suffolk / Re: Hill Crest Villas, Woodbridge
« on: Tuesday 29 June 21 09:45 BST (UK)  »
The "fields" on the 1939 map of Bredfield Road were actually orchards which were still there in the early 1960's when I was a child. In the early 1970's two housing estates were built off Bredfield Road - Orchard Close & Bury Hill.

On the 1939 register the enumerator is following the route out of Woodbridge towards the Bredfield Road/Woods Lane Melton crossroads. The houses you are looking for are still there on the right hand side of the road coming from Woodbridge. The previous entries are Bury Hill (House) which is still there and now surrounded by many houses, then New Inn which is also still there. Today, between New Inn & Hill Crest Villas is the entrance to Orchard Close.
You can see them as you "walk" along the road on Google Earth and just about make out the name plaque high up on the wall.

Hope this helps
Best wishes,
Kevin

Northumberland Lookup Requests / Re: Marriage look up - William WILSON & Margaret MCDOUGALD
« on: Sunday 27 September 20 13:10 BST (UK)  »
Hi Colin,

Thank you very much for taking time to look at this.

I have searched where I can online, but not been able to find a marriage either. I am hoping that somewhere there may be a record that has not yet been digitised. I too have been wondering whether Margaret's surname was McDougall rather than McDougald and Wilson (like my Scott family) is a very common surname in Northumberland.

One day hopefully, I may get to visit the Northumberland archives again, but they are quite a drive from Suffolk!

Regards,
Kevin

Northumberland Lookup Requests / Marriage look up - William WILSON & Margaret MCDOUGALD
« on: Wednesday 23 September 20 16:58 BST (UK)  »
I would be grateful if anyone could help find the marriage of my 4 x great grandparents, William WILSON & Margaret MCDOUGALD.

I know nothing about them except that they had three children baptised at the Chapel Street Presbyterian Chapel, Spittal, Berwick upon Tweed.
Eleanor WILSON (my 3 x great grandmother) in 1799
John WILSON 1801
Margaret WILSON 1804

They could, of course have been married over the border in Scotland.

Many thanks,
Kevin

Hi John,

I have uploaded my raw Ancestry DNA to Gedmatch. It looks like it usually takes a couple of days to activate. I hope it may help you as I'm struggling to understand the complexity of the website.

Hi , Yes I had my DNA done by Ancestry and it is linked to my tree. . However, I have to admit it is all still a bit of a mystery to me. I found one second cousin, but cannot find a link to many 4th-6th cousins!

Regards,
Kevin

Northamptonshire / Marriage of Edward Foster & Mary Pain 1790/1 *SOLVED*
« on: Saturday 16 May 20 17:19 BST (UK)  »
I have found the Bishop's Transcript record of the marriage of Edward Foster & Mary Pain on Ancestry. However it does not give the exact date, but only that the marriage took place between Lady Day 1790 & Lady Day 1791 in the parish of Greens Norton.

Would anyone have access the the parish register that gives a date for the marriage? Any other details would be a bonus.

Many thanks,
Kevin
