Where it says to be deported - maybe a red-herring -  is there a date 8  14  42 could be 14/8/1942 or just a reference number  ?

Sandra

This appears to be a reference number rather than a date.  The date would have been 1907.

Eileen - thank you.  I have the information about her children.

Can anyone help with this please?

Harriet Pike born 1882 in Gillingham married James Venemore on 23rd September 1906 at Gillingham.  I cannot find a birth record in England for James but the marriage record says his father, George was a Baker, as was James.

In 1907 Harriet and James travelled on the Tunisian to Montreal, Canada - their destination is Quebec.  There is a note next to their names 'To Be Deported'.  What would this mean?  Does it mean James was born in Canada or in the UK?

James was born c1880 and, presumably, died between 1909 (they had a son in 1909) and 1911.  There is a James Croxford Venemore with father George in Leighton Buzzard that fits with the birth and death dates but this appears to be a red herring.  James Croxford Venemore married Minnie Frost in 1902 and it appears that Minnie died in 1904 but Harriet's James is shown as a batchelor on the marriage record in 1906.

Harriet returned to the UK in 1910 with her two children but James was not with them and I have found no other record of him returning.  In the 1911 census Harriet is shown as a widow.

If anyone could help with James's birth and/or death records it would help a lot and I would be very grateful.

Could someone please explain to me how some anti-vaxxers can claim that ' all vaccinated people will be dead in three years'.

How can they possibly accept this when three years ago nobody had even heard of Covid let alone a vaccine for it.

Are your Hammonds any relation to the Hammonds in Albury, Herts one of the daughters married a Thomas Houghton and settled in Little Hallingbury- they were ag labs and farmers x

There is a good chance they were the same family.  Which daughter and what year would this be?  Some of my Hammonds ended up with Albury and the surrounding areas.

1841 Census was in June so it’s extremely feasible that as Agricultural Labours that they could be moving around for seasonal work.

Yes, agreed but you would still expect to find at least one of the four.

Was anything happening historically c1841?  I ask because I have a very similar situation in Sussex, two brothers and their brother in law are also all missing from home, wives and children are all enumerated as expected.  I’m inclined to think they’re drunk under the table at the nearby beer house 

That's funny - I thought the same thing with the Hammonds.
