Thanks Jennifer, for the lookup.
I have been dying for the 1841 to come out to try and attack a few brick walls. There's that idea down the drain. Grin..
Thanks anyway and happy hunting.

Hi Hackstaple,
Thanks for the prompt reply.   Well at least I know he is not necessarily Royal Navy. Any idea where to go from here....I have already tried A2A and documents online of course.....and do so periodically.
Many Thanks for your help

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Burials for London Lookup Please COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 13 May 06 10:14 BST (UK)  »
Hi Jane (aka Loverleylegs)
Thank you for the wonderful lookup offer. I'd like to take advantage of it in relation to  a rather irritating and elusive brickwall, that perhaps you can help me with.
I am looking for a burial for a James Thomas Worwood - there are three generations of James Thomas Worwoods (also spelt Warwood) in London.   The earliest one I do not have a birth for. His son James Thomas was born 1836 and buried 1897.
therefore the one I am most interested in would be born before 1816 based on being aged 20 at birth of his son James Thomas Worwood. I hope that makes sense.
Many thanks in advance
Cheers Jane

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / 1841 census Sackville street

Hello everyone,

I thought I would give one of my brickwalls a go on here.
Frances KEENE married in 1838 in St James Westminster. On the Parish Register,  her father was given as John Keene, Tailor and their address was 22 Sackville street.  I have been told this was a haven for Tailors at the time.  Could SKS check that address for me on the 1841 census please, to see if they were still there 3 years later.   I have never been able to crack this family.
Many thanks in advance

Armed Forces / marine engineer's machinist
« on: Saturday 13 May 06 09:06 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone,
My grandfather William James Hillier (born 1871, Deptford) was found on the  1891 census as a marine engineer's machinist.  His father William Hillier was listed as a marine boilermaker.   On the 1901 census William James Hillier is listed as a general engineer. 
Can I presume that a Marine engineer's machinist is Royal Navy?   
Would he have left the Navy - as a general engineer?
If so can anyone tell me where I may find their records? 
My dads maternal and paternal trees are short stumpy little things. Elusive  characters that they are, so any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers Pam

Sorry Celia I haven't been back for a while, new job and computer hassles. This was a reply originally. I am still getting the hang of this site, so hope I didn't do anything wrong.

Hi Biker,
Yes it is odd that I keep finding them around there. A few other things have occurred to me over the years I have been searching.
1. As I said james T Senior remarried after his Charlottes death.
2. It seems strange the John and Sarah Worwood had a daughter Charlotte Elizabeth worwood AND My James T married a Charlotte Elizabeth as well.
a. Charlotte Elizabeth had a child out of wedlock and the James Thomas named as parent, may have indeed been a cousin, brother etc. If so and she later married jonathon Fenton, then James T junior should be with her on the 1841 census aged 5. OR
b. Cousins married. Not unheard of by any stretch.
c. or they disappeared back up North and I haven't been able to locate them. Apparently family lore states came from up North......Staff and Warwick are a hotbed for Worwoods.
Either way they are making me bald......Grin ! Thanks again though, and if you trip over them anywhere......?????!!!!!!
Cheers Pam

Ps, How rude of me. Thankyou very much for checking Eves place 1841 for me Jennifer. I appreciate that very much. This is a brickwall that's coming down with a toothbrush and a lot of wishful thinking.
Cheers Pam
