Yorkshire (West Riding) Completed Requests / Re: 1891 and/or 1901 census lookup please - Blythe Fletcher, Goole
« on: Monday 26 January 09 11:06 GMT (UK)  »
Wow - thank you!  Blythe was my partner's grandfather.  He came to New Zealand in 1911 and became an artist, but he never ever talked about his family.  We had no idea he had siblings.

I've found mention of Blythe Fletcher in Goole in 1891, aged 4 and 1901, aged 14. 

Looking for the rest of his household - parents, siblings

Anything would be more information than we have!

... and this would appear to be his wife - except that it refers to him as 'the late' and his burial isn't until much later.  Hmmmmm ...

Hoping you still check in here, since this posting is so old!

I'm a New Zealand Roscoe, although I don't think we're connected to your line.

I think I have found your grandfather though;  he's buried in the Waikumete Cemetery in Auckland, where some of my relatives are:

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Look up request - Joseph Roscoe

Thank you!  I thought I was going bonkers.  The very helpful Mr Mancurian did point me in the right direction, and the right link appeared for me this time.

If only the rest of my Roscoe information would appear magically like that.

Hi Jane  - thank you for your message to me - I have hunted and can't find any way to reply to it privately!  I thought I was reasonably techno-savvy, but my internet guru husband can't find a way to message you either.

Maybe we need to club together and order a birth certificate!

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Look up request - Joseph Roscoe
« on: Thursday 22 January 09 05:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hello!  I'm descended from Joseph Roscoe and Isabella Glover, and I've been working on finding Joseph's parents - now I can go searching for John and Anne/Margaret, thank you!  Have you found any further information?

I've found several earlier Roscoe family trees from a similar area, but can't find any which seem to tie into our one.

My line comes down from Joseph, to his son Joseph, to Edward who emigrated to New Zealand, to James, by his first wife, who was my grandfather.
