Ireland / Some General Advice reguired Please
« on: Friday 29 April 05 14:18 BST (UK)  »
On 17th June 1900 a great aunt of mine, Victoria Posner, married a chap called Henry Morris.  From verbal family history I know they had at least one child, Irlene/Irene Morris after they moved to Ireland.

The English wedding certificate simply states Henry’s birth place as “Ireland”, and his father as an Engineer called Ralph Morris.  Again family verbal history indicates he may have worked for “Browns” and that Irlene/Irene married a “Brown”.

Given that I have no idea of county of origin, can anybody suggest how I may be able to find anymore information?

Any ehlp grateful received as I am at a dead end!!

Staffordshire completed Look up Requests / Blakeman
« on: Friday 29 April 05 14:11 BST (UK)  »
I would be very grateful for some help for look up in 1871 or 1861 please.

I have a family Parent Richard Blakeman born Blyth Marsh, Stafford, England abt 1847 married to a Cicely Blakeman (nee Salt) born Lightwood, Staffordshire, England, abt 1846.

I believe they had four children, three were born post 1871, but the first Cicely also appears to have been born in abt 1870.  In 1881 she is shown as born in Cocknage, Stafford, England, but in 1891 as Blyth Marsh, Dilhorne, Staffordshire, England. 

I would be interested to know how close these areas are and if there is any reference to the family in 1871 or 1861 as I have not yet started to find details about Richard or Cicely (mothers) origins.

Any help much apprecaited

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Re: 1861/51 lookup request - Hawkins

Rick

I wanted to thank you for both the information and the lookup. 

You will have guessed this is the first time I have used this site, and certainly didn’t anticipate such a quick or helpful response.  I had no information on the other family members and this is a great help.

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / 1861/51 lookup request - Hawkins
« on: Tuesday 01 March 05 18:29 GMT (UK)  »
Would someone be kind enough to look up Emma Hawkins (father believed to be William), born circa 1841.

The 1871 census shows her as born in Albury Herts
The 1881 census shows her as born in Berkhamsted
On 20 Jan 1864 she lived at Red Lion Yard Berkhamsted, when her illegitimate son William James was born

Any help much appreciated
