Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / My Dad and his brother
« on: Saturday 30 December 23 21:00 GMT (UK) »
Several years ago I was sent this photo (scan).
It is my father, (Frank, the tall one) uncle (Corrie), and their cousin (all deceased).
My Uncle was born in 1933 and died in 1945. This is the only photo the family has of Uncle Corrie.
It was taken in Amsterdam in winter.
Can I have some color as I know these photos come up great after a color.
Happy New Year
All the Best for 2024.
Thank you
Carol

Cork / Re: Thornhill and Moore Families Help!
« on: Thursday 28 December 23 20:11 GMT (UK) »
Many thanks, Jomot and heywood. This is great.
I have found the articles regarding Williams's death on 3rd January 1849. Williams's 3xgreat grandson was born on 3rd January 1951. He too is now deceased.
I did have William and Mary nee Roache as possible parents in 1994 when I started this line. Now I can confirm I am on the right track.
Thank you
Carol

Cork / Thornhill and Moore Families Help!
« on: Wednesday 27 December 23 23:36 GMT (UK) »
Looking for John Thornhill who according to his marriage certificate was full age, a bachelor living at Sunday Wells, Parish of St Mary Shandon, Cork City. He was a Writing Clerk and his father William was a Clerk Peace Office.
He married Margaret Moore of full age, a spinster living at Paul Street, Parish of St Paul's City of Cork.
She was a storekeeper as was her father John.
They married in the Register Office in Cork City on the 14th of July 1855. Witnesses were D.Connor and Mary O'Connor(who made her Mark)
Margaret and 3 children, William 1856, Annie 1859, and Louis 1859 came to New Zealand on the Asia in 1874.
To date, I can find no evidence of her husband John coming to New Zealand.
Many trees have a Johnson Thornhill as her husband. This man was born about 1816, was a miner from Ireland, and died in New Zealand in 1871. I can find no evidence to connect Johnson to John or Margaret.
Would like to know about John Moore and his family also William Thornhill's family.
What happens to John?
A New Year's miracle would be good.

Merry Christmas one and all.
Christmas Morning here.
A few friends have already texted their Christmas greetings.
Some have received a positive Covid test after feeling under the weather for a few days.
Not the ideal Christmas present but they are now changing plans for a quiet Christmas.
Christmas stops for no one so enjoy your day regardless of circumstances.
