Hi all! 

Need another bit of help here, this time with a child by the name Franklin PARRY.

1851 Census:

Name:   Franklin Parry
Age:   1
Estimated Birth Year:    abt 1850
Relation:   Son
Father's Name:   John Parry
Mother's name:   Mary Parry
Gender:   Male
Where born:   Rhyl, Flintshire, Wales

I can't find Franklin Parry in the birth indexes for 1848-1850 but I can find a Thomas Franklin Middleton PARRY

Surname     Given Name     Age     District     Volume     Page
Births Dec 1849   
PARRY    Thomas Franklin Middleton        Asaph St    27   184

and a death in 1851

Surname     Given Name     Age     District     Volume     Page
Deaths Jun 1851
Parry   Thomas Franklin Middleton      St Asaph   XXVII   1_4

The only marriage I can see on FreeBMD for Franklin Parry is someone in 1905 with a different middle name.

Would you say these two are the same child

Hi all,

I know a wee bit about these two, and have it listed that they were married c. 1857 in Liverpool, but I can find nothing to prove this. I turn to you, dear Rootschatters, and ask if you can help me find anything concrete on the marriage.

I've had a letter from my Grandmother asking if I can find out as it's of interest to her too.

Thomas Eccles:
Born: 14 October 1832, Hoylake
Died: 21 September 1913, Hoylake

Son of Michael ECCLES and Margaret Ellen HOLMES

Worked as a lighthouse/telegraph keeper.

Sarah Aspinall:
Born: 1836, Liverpool, Lancs
Died: 19 November 1919, Hoylake

Daughter of James Samuel ASPINALL b. 1811
and Alice WRIGHT(?)

I have more info, if it's required I can post it.

Cheers all!

Hi all!

I can't read the first name of the four-year-old son, ______ Middleton Dodd. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi again 

I have a photo of my granddad, from either 1943 or 44 and one of his father, George, and would like them to have a bit of colour.

Grandad had relatively dark brown hair,  had tan skin, but not tooo tan.
As for his eyes, my dad has (quite light) blue eyes, so Grandad must have had them too.
His uniform is from the RAF.

George, I'm told had the same colouring as Grandad.

For the photo of George, I'm guessing he was in his late 20's maybe, so the late 1910s sometime? seeing as he was born in 1890. Would that fit? The photo is printed on a post card, but there's nothing written on the back so I don't know for sure

Thanks so much!

Back after quite a while away!

I've been looking in to my best friends’ tree for her and her mum & grandparents. I'm stuck on my friends’ great-grandmother, Constance Lee. I've sat down with my friends Nana and asked her a lot of questions about her mother but she doesn't know much, as she said she didn't worry about her family’s past because she was more worried about surviving in the war. Anyway, what we do know about Constance is as follows:

She was known as nana Connie.
She had no middle name
Believed to be born on the 9th of December, 1906, in Ireland possibly

She married one Cyril Horace J GRABHAM in September of 1926 in Croydon and she died in October 2002, aged 95.

She had 4 children, all of whom are alive, so I can't name them here.

We would really like to find anything more about Nana Connie and her side of the family as no one I've talked to seems to know much about her.

Oh, I've put this in the 'General' section as it would appear to involve both England and Ireland.
Cheers for any help!
