US Lookup Requests / 3 Holmes Went to New York
« on: Monday 27 June 05 21:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi
I have 11 Holmes siblings
Three went to New York
Frederick (Fred) Holmes born 28 Apr 1848 Birmingham Warwickshire England
Alice Elizabeth Holmes born abt 1851 Birmingham Warwickshire England
Samuel Henry (Sam) Holmes born 21 Aug 1859 Birmingham Warwickshire England

I have no Census after 1861 for Fred and Alice, and none after 1871 for Sam.
I have an address at unknown date for Fred
51 Oak Street, Richmond Hill, New York, USA

I found a Fred Holmes in 1880 Census but he is with a Thomas Holmes, there are no Thomas Holmes that I know of in the family.

Parents are William Holmes and Caroline nee Whateley

I have tried what I have access to without success, incl Ellis Island.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Bob

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / 1841 & 1851 Census Holmfirth, Ann LEE
« on: Saturday 18 June 05 12:37 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone be kind enough to help me find more details about my great
grandmother, Ann Lee

According to her birth Certificate, Ann was born 08 Feb 1848 in Upper Mill,
Upper Thong, Holmfirth
Her father was John Lee, a shoemaker, and mother Mary Cook.
There are at least two siblings I have traced, there are probably several
more, in between.
Mary Ann Lee b 20 Feb 1834 and chr 30 Mar 1834 Holmfirth
Hannah Lee b 02 Jun 1836 and chr 10 Jun 1836 Holmfirth

I would dearly like to know from either 1841 or 1851 census further details
of parents, also siblings.
I have never managed to find Ann on 1861 census, nor her parents. The names
John and Mary Lee are not uncommon in those parts!
I wonder if the family were affected by the Holmfirth floods - I believe
they were about 1853.

Ann, married twice, lived in Derbyshire, Yorkshire again (married to a man
from Suffolk), remarried and Lived in Cheshire and Lancashire.
She died in Middlesex in 1940, mercifully before her grandson aged only 15,
followed by her son-in-law, who died within months

Any help would be gratefully appreciated,

Thanks

Bob

Cheshire Lookup Requests / Look up request Swindells 1841/1851
« on: Thursday 10 February 05 19:58 GMT (UK)  »
Hello

I would be extremely grateful if anyone is able to look up Swindells as a grocer in Macclesfield . The earliest I have is a widow Ellen Swindells at 364 Black Road, Macclesfield in 1871 , later at 92 Windmill Street.

If its shown in her husband's name, all the better.


Many Thanks

Regards

Bob
