US Lookup Requests / New York Passenger Lists
« on: Wednesday 26 November 08 17:36 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for Swainson Spencer Rawstron , born 1863, left England for New York and returned a few years later.
I would be grateful for a lookup in the New York Passenger Lists.
It would be interesting to see how long he was in the US.
I wonder why he returned.
He was back in England by 1894, which was the date of his marriage.
Thanks

I saw the offer for Marriage lookups for the St Helens area.
I am looking for the marriage of Walter Littler and Mildred Tyrer, it was probably about 1916-1918, probably in Haydock.

Completed Census Requests / Census Lookup - Pre 1901
« on: Sunday 26 March 06 11:20 BST (UK)  »
Please could SKS see if they could find this JEHU family in any census before 1901.
I have tried many variations of the JEHU name, but cannot find them.

Living at the Mill, Llangedwyn, West Denbighshire at the time of the 1901 census
Edmund JEHU age 44 Corn Miller, born Newtown, Montgomeryshire
Alice JEHU age 42
Margaret Alice JEHU age 17
Edward Llewelyn JEHU age 16
Stanley JEHU age 14
Elizabeth Ann JEHU age 13
Percival JEHU age 12
Sarah Jane JEHU age 10
George Edgar JEHU age 8
Mary Emily GEHU age 5
 
The majority of my family originate from Lancashire, but I have just found from the marriage certificate of Percy JEHU (he was married in Oldham), that his father was Edmund JEHU, occupation Corn Miller, this JEHU family seems to fit the bill, but I cannot seem to find them any earlier
Thanks

Fermanagh / CARROLL / CAROLAN family - Fermanagh
« on: Monday 06 March 06 15:02 GMT (UK)  »
Francis CAROLAN was baptised at Sacred Heart Church, Clones 30 Mar 1909
He was the son of Francis CAROLAN and Margaret SMYTH
His father Francis was born 1879 in Doones (that's what it looks like!!) in Lisnaskea, Fermanagh, son of Bernard CARROLL and Mary Anne LYNCH

Somewhere along the line the name changed from CARROLL to CAROLAN.

This is my first attempt at tracing this Irish line and I am uncertain as to what resources are available.

I would be grateful for any help to get me started.

Thanks
