Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / please help with both addresses
« on: Monday 18 June 12 21:10 BST (UK)  »
hi there

i am hoping you lovely people who have helped me before will be able to to transcribe the addresses on this marriage certificate for me please.

I am trying to trace the grooms family as i have no idea where he was originally born or what his mothers name was. I think my best bet is to find the addresses in 1901 and 1911 and see if there were anyone with a familiar name living there.

I can see the groom was a seaman and his father was a stoker. (not sure on brides occupation or her fathers)

has anyone else have any better ideas to start tracing his family and anything else they can transcribe for me?

Thanking you in advance.
Emma

Hi there

can anyone help me decipher what the fathers and groom profession is for the first marriage on the top left?
It wont let me save it to computer and then chop off the section i want people to look at so the only option i have is to post the link and hope people who have ancestry accounts can help.

Its the Henry Carter and Catherine Mary Ellis marriage.

Thanks in advance.

The Common Room / help to find a business property
« on: Sunday 25 September 11 19:24 BST (UK)  »
Hi there

Firstly i hope im putting this in the right section but apologies if not and i will put in correct section if advised.

I am hoping someone can help me find out where my ancestors business might have been and what it might have been called.

My 2x great grandfather has been listed on my great grandmothers wedding certificate as being a laundry proprieter.  He has previously been listed on census's as being a laundryman master . My mum  vaguely remembers that there was a laundry business in the family but doesn't know who inherited it etc.

How would i find the business and where it would have been?

My 2x great grandfather was called Henry Carter and it was 1910 when he had a business.

His family moved around the Banstead street, Astbury Road and Ivydale Rd are in Peckham throughout his and his  daughters life.

Im really unsure as to how to find this out so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / name help to unlock my tree
« on: Monday 27 June 11 22:54 BST (UK)  »
Hi there

very new to this and was hoping that someone could help me find out a name. My 2x great grandmothers name is preventing me from going any further with her side of the tree. Her marriage certificate says Betsy Ryland (her maiden name), her census in 1901 says B King, and her 1911 census says Bessie king and her death certificate says Bessie King.

Yet when i do a search for either a Betsy Ryland or Bessie Ryland for rotherhithe areas for her birth i come up with nothing. I know her father is called Thomas Ryland as he is on the marriage certficate.

I feel this census with the most complete name for her is my biggest clue but i cant tell what it says.

She is third from the top underneath her husband George KIng

Can anyone help me with this??
