Suffolk Lookup Requests / Baptism look up request pls, HINES in Hadleigh

« on: Tuesday 22 August 17 12:56 BST (UK) »

Dear Chatters,
I have a birth cert for James Hines, dob 10th May 1848, Hadleigh, reg district, Cosford.
Mother named as Rebecca, no address given,just Hadleigh and unfortunately no father named.
Now seeking details of any baptism for JH in the hope that it may at least give god parents names or an address in the hope that it will provide additional information as to mother's background

1851 Whatfield census : ref.HO107 1790/362 there is a Rebecca in the household of John Dunningham.
She is recorded as being a housekeeper age 46 along with a 3 year old James H and two older girls Marian H c 1828 and Sarah H c 1838 who may also belong to Rebecca, although there is a large age gap between the three.
This has been my starting point in the Suffolk area in order to find the correct JH although there are a few candidates born within a five year period of this one.

Regards and thanks in advance for any help provided

Ireland / Birth entry "struck Off " opinions welcome

« on: Sunday 11 September 16 13:30 BST (UK) »

I have a copy of a birth entry which for some unknown reason has been struck through.
The person in question does not appear to have a corrected birth entry. She was very much alive in 1901 and 1911 census records. I would welcome explanations if anyone else has come across this in the past.

Also trying to make out mother's maiden name, Horan or Moran ?

Have included a copy of the entry

Many thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I would be most grateful for an 1871 census look up for the following if possible.

Frederick Greenaway born Curbridge c 1862 and his father Albert c 1834 also from Curbridge.
It is my belief his mother may have been Mary ( Busby ) but that she died within a couple of years of his birth,would like to confirm at least her first name if recorded on census.

Any help appreciated

This is a BIG ask but would any of you wonderful roots chatters have or know of anyone who might have in their possession any old photos of O'Connell Street aka Tea Lane ,this would be prior to early fifties before it was demolished.
I am putting together a short account of my family who lived there before its demise and would love to be able to include a photograph.I have searched on line and there is only one to be found but this one is used on a regular basis and I am hoping to find one not in general use.

Regards to all on here
