Hello Kay,
Thanks for your reply. Jane was a 31yo domestic servant and living in(I think)Blaina. Jeremiah was a 54yo night watchman in an iron forge and living in the same place. I think it says B but could be wrong. It has Bedwellty and Aberystruth on the top of the certificate. :-\

Hello,
I started a search for Jeremiah Gowen but gave up as I could not break down the brick wall. I have since found him as a witness on his daughter Jane's death certificate. Jane died in Monmouth, Wales in 1863. Jeremiah died in Wales the following year. I would like to find Jeremiah and Jane in the 1861 census if I can and discover who was the witness on Jeremiah's death certificate. It looks like Ami Gowen but hard to read.

thanks

Thank-you for your kindness and help. It is wonderful to have a brick wall crumble and Anthony lay-ed to rest.
many thanks

Hello Aghadowey,
I think you have hit the nail on the head and there are 2 Anthony Ferguson's born around the same year and living in Middlesbrough in the late 1800s. I have looked in freebmd and discovered Anthony Cooper Ferguson born in Sunderland in 1884 and Anthony Ferguson born in Leeds in 1884. I can not find an Anthony born in Middlesbrough. If I was to get Anthony from Leeds birth certificate and found he was the son of James and Margaret do you think I can 100% say this is the husband of Hannah or I need to find a will or Margaret living with Anthony and Hannah to be that sure?
grateful,
NellieG

Hello Aghadowey,
Thanks for your help. There are 2 trees on Ancestry for Anthony Ferguson. The 2ND Anthony was born in Durham in 1884 and has Anthony's father as Anthony with no mother. This Anthony has a brother John born in 1878. The 2ND tree for Anthony has him in the Gordon highlanders in WW1. WW1 records has Anthony married to Alice Moserop with daughters Ivy born 1907, Elsie born 1903 and Kathleen born 1901.
Is my Anthony a bigamist and has put his fathers name as James on his wedding certificate to Hannah to throw all of us off the trail.

Hello,
I am trying to find the birth, death and parents of Anthony Ferguson. The only thing I know about Anthony is he was married to Hannah Fletcher Saul on the 16.3.1908 in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire. His age is given as 23. Anthony is a foundryman and the son of deceased metal carrier James. The witnesses are John Ferguson and Pollie _rood.
Anthony is not living with Hannah and their son in 1911. I have found a John Ferguson in 1911. He is living with Margaret and John Collins as stepson. A Margaret Ferguson married John Collins in 1900 in Middlesbrough. How can I prove or disprove these people are Anthony's family?
cheers

Hello Karenlee,
Many thanks for your help. I am sure you have the right woman. Benjamin was a mariner so we may never find his death.
Thank-you for your kindness

Hello,
Ethlinda Josephine Harriet Ginder married Benjamin Benome Peat on the 13.10.1873 in Middlesex, England and then disappeared. Has anyone ever come across Ethlinda or Benjamin or can offer me suggestions on how I might find them.
Thanks
NellieG ???
