Evening Queenie

Does the Yorkshire Monumental Inscriptions database include plots numbers/locations?

I ask as I have family who live local to the cemetery so this opens up the chance for them to visit/photograph.

Thanks for the reply emeltom. It looks as though that is a mystery that will last until after Summer!

Thanks Queenie and emeltom

I am running without a subscription at the moment as I am supposed to be winding down the family tree research in readiness for the lighter nights and better weather! However, I must confess, that the sudden news of a researched "new" branch and the potential to link it to my own tree has caught my enthusiasm.

emelton - did you view the entry. Did it on its transcribed version offer the name of the fathers of William and Phillis (married in 1759). I think I could sleep better knowing this! Temptation may yet get the better of me to go looking further  :-[

hanes teulu - thank you! Now that I have dates for Beatrice, it opens up many options.

Queenie - I did not know that. Every day is a school day!

Queenie - however did you find this information?

I have identified other Callears buried in the same Haugh Road Municipal Cemetery. Do you have access to some form of master list?

Either way - big thank you! I am excited to pass on the good news!

Many years ago, I traced my Callear family tree back to a William Calliears* who married a Phillis Calliear** in Feb 4 1759? I am sure that I found a connection to a Robert [who would then be William's father] but can not find it amongst my paper records [I'm trying to thin them out]

Can you help to find parents/siblings for William Callear m. Feb 4 1759?

I ask as I am trying to connect my tree to another tree - the holder of which has managed to trace back to a Robert (b. 1715) who is known to have had three sons: William, John and Thomas.

* The spelling varies a lot.
** Interesting to know if Phillis was actually a Callear too!

I have recently made contact with another Callear who is the grand-daughter of a John Callear who married Beatrice M Antell.

We are trying to find her connection to the Callear family tree that I have assembled. Unfortunately, she does not know much about her grandad. The most likely candidate on my tree is a John Callear who was born in 1922 (d. 1988) but without proof we cannot go further.

Can anyone help to prove or disprove this connection?

I have found living children of John on Facebook but have not been able to make contact with them.

FYI - Beatrice was born Parker then married a Leslie E Antell in 1941.

United States of America / Re: Emigration to US: Gabriel Gallear (1887) - Records for Alberta shipping company?

Thank you to those that have responded - much appreciated!  :)

The 1900 US census says 1887, whilst the 1920 US census says 1886.

The passenger list from the SS Nevada looks good but I'm concerned about the profession shown as "jeweller". He is recorded in the 1861 UK census as being a coal miner [the family trade!] and as a farmer in the 1900 US census. It is interesting that there is a "Jones" listed before and after him as his wife's maiden name was Jones - I have yet to research her past so maybe one of these is connected.

The passenger list from the Wisconsin looks good for his wife, Caroline (right year of birth) and kids names match - albeit I originally listed their four eldest including Sarah Florence Voilet Gallear [born 1888!] and not William (who is shown on the list)
