Berkshire Lookup Requests / Sellwood Thomas and John Sonning
« on: Thursday 27 October 05 23:38 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
If anyone is going to the Berks Record Office I would be grateful if they could look up for the baptisms of Thomas Sellwood 1792 and John Sellwood 1791.  According to all the other info that I have they were brothers  born in Sonning Berks (which covers a multitude of sins).  They are not on the Sonning Parish Fiche from OXFHS so I am stuck as to their parents or siblings which would help me connect them with my other Sellwoods from that area.  Suggestions as to other close parishes to look in would also be useful.
Regards
Vicki

« on: Wednesday 26 October 05 11:03 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
Could someone please do a look up for  John (b about 1852 Lyndhurst)  and Emily Jane Hiscock (born about 1849 Bramshaw) in the 1891 census.  In 1881 they were at Pikes Hill Lyndhurst with 2 children but I need to know whether there were any more children born after then.  Thanks

Norfolk / Scott and Dack
« on: Tuesday 13 September 05 05:04 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
For several years I have been trying to connect my mother's Dack family from Norfolk in with a Scott family from Norfolk with no luck.  Reason: on the 1881 census when the Dacks were in Deptford London they had a nephew living with them called James Scott.  Robert Dack was born in Booten and Emma was born in Thurgarton.  They married in Norwich, had a couple of children before moving to Newcastle, a few more children, and from there to London where 2 more were born.  Is anyone able to help me make this connection? This is the only reference that I have.

Oxfordshire / Sellwood Greenough
« on: Tuesday 13 September 05 04:34 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I have a big gap in my 20th century tree and there is now no one left in my family to ask.  Can anyone advise as to how I might fill this gap, bearing in mind the privacy of individuals which hampers viewing of primary records?
The story is that in 1918 my Father, Albert Edward Sellwood, was born in Burghfield, the youngest son of Henry (Harry) Sellwood, farm labourer,  and Gertrude Austin.  Some time between than and 1933 I have lost them.
I know that in 1933 my aunt Ada Sellwood was in Little Wittenham with my father, where my cousin Walter was born and died in 1936, and then on to Worton Cassington and Ducklington where I was born.  In between time my father's sister Ivy got married to a George Greenough, but where and when I have no idea. I think, from what I was told as a youngster that it would have been about 1940.   Finding her marriage might help pinpoint where my Sellwoods were at that time, but where to look?  They were an extremely mobile family, never in one place much longer than a few years.   My father's elder brother was brought up by his uncle Walter Sellwood in the Shiplake/Dunsden area, effectively causing a life long split amongst the siblings, but I am at a loss to know where to look for my grandparents and aunts, Ivy, Ada,  and Alma  Sellwood between 1918 and 1933.

Berkshire Lookup Requests / Sellwood Chieveley Parish Records
« on: Monday 12 September 05 22:41 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I would be grateful if it is at all possible for a look up for the marriage and/or baptisms  of a Sellwood family who according to the Mormon familysearch were from Chieveley as follows:-


  Stephen Sellwood AFN 1WLK S7N
born abt 1704 England
Wife
Elizabeth Chapman AFN 1WLK S8V
born abt 1708 England

Children
James born abt 1730 England
Stephen born abt 1732 of Thatcham Berks
Died 2 Jan 1795 Chieveley
William born 1744 England
Died 1814

At the moment it is Stephen senior's christening and the children of this couple in whom I am interested, particularly William who  married a Jane Harding in Kingsclere Hants in 1768.  It is generally accepted by other Sellwood researchers that Elizabeth, wife of Stephen above was in fact christened in 1816 in Trowbridge so I might be looking in the wrong County for the marriage.  Stephen was my 5th great grandfather by all accounts.
Regards
Vicki

Berkshire / Solomon Willis of Caversham
« on: Monday 12 September 05 17:24 BST (UK)  »
I am not sure if I should be posting this here because Caversham is really in Oxfordshire.  However, there may be records of the Willis family in Reading RO so:-
I am trying to find out who Solomon Willis b 1817 Rotherfield Peppard first married and when she died. Her Christian name was Mary Ann.  In 1871 Solomon  married Fanny Gyngell from St Pancras which is proved by the 1881 census.  However, before that he had 9 children christened in Caversham with wife Mary Ann

Jane 1858-1858
