Suffolk / James Alsop abt 1715-1786 Wheelwright
« on: Thursday 08 December 16 12:02 GMT (UK) »
James might have been born Suffolk. My first trace of him is in 1743 when as he married a widow in Great Oakley,Essex. He married twice more,died & was buried in Gt Oakley. Was he baptised in the Nayland area? There were Allsops there at the time. One of his descendants Daniel Allsop moved to the Cock at Polstead when he retired & died there 29 May 1901. Not a common name, but he has been a brickwall for too long. Any ideas?

The Common Room / Frank William Cunningham born at sea 19 Oct 1875
« on: Wednesday 23 November 16 13:37 GMT (UK) »
Frank was on board the "Howard" reg 37150. He was baptised 06 March 1876 at Great Holland, Essex, son of William Cunningham, mariner & Sarah Ann. His death was registered in the third quarter of 1876 at Greenwich. His grandfather was possibly Thomas Cunningham 1807-1901 of Gt Holland,my grut,grut grandfather. What I can't trace is where William the mariner fits in my tree. The Howard is not in the list of barges. Any ideas?

George was a wheelwright, his wife Sarah was born in Boxford,Suffolk in 1811. Their first son, Charles, was born in Lawford,Essex in 1832. Can anyone find their marriage (which I guess was in Suffolk) for me please.

A friend has several photos of british soldiers with a belgian boy 'Gussie', who befriended them. He might still be alive & I'm trying to trace him. Any ideas of the best way to go about this apart from Facebook?
