Ireland / James Stephenson Thompson
« on: Sunday 19 February 23 09:08 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

We are trying to trace my son's grandfather, probably born in 1931.

We know very little about him except his name, (even that is sometimes spelt James Stevenson Thompson and sometimes James Stephenson Thompson).

We have the M/C to my son's grandmother on 19/11/1955 at The Register Office, Eton, Buckinghamshire, England. No father is named.

His last child was born in 1958 and I believe that he deserted the family, possibly while his wife was pregnant with this child. 

We believe him to be Irish, (probably from NI). Was probably living in London in the 1960s.

His former wife remarried early in 1962 so there must have been a divorce at some point. I think that we have traced his death, registered in Q1 2009 in Wandsworth, London and have ordered the certificate.     Hopefully that may provide a few more details.

Whilst we are awaiting receipt of this has anyone any further suggestions or recommendations for help in tracing his birth details?. 

Kind regards,

Coreen

Isle of Man Lookup Requests / William Jefferson

Hi,

I am trying to confirm if the William Jefferson who died 23/06/1961, address 4, Bay View Terrace, Laxey, Isle of Man, is my relation. I can't trace an age so unsure. He was born on 21/10/1895 in Elton, Lancashire. He married Christiana Nuttall in 1917 and the couple went on to have a daughter, Marjorie, in 1920. Christina died in 1924 and I think William married Alice McNeil in 1925 in Manchester. I can see from the probate records that the William Jefferson who died in 1961 left his assets to his widow, Alice, and wondered if this could be my relation.   Any advice or information gratefully received.

Kind regards,

Coreen

Hi,

I think that is the couple living at 71, Dupont Road, Raynes Park Bushey Mead Wimbledon, Surrey in 1911 but that George Evans is born in Brixton, London.

Kind regards,

Coreen

Hi Pauline,

Good thinking! I have checked the witness signature for George Evans on the M/C for George's sister, Rose Mary Ann to Edmund Palmer on 25/12/1879, and on the M/C for brother Charles to Jessie Fisher on 25/12/1888, and they both look pretty much the same so probably the signature of George senior as George Thomas would have been aged only 17 in 1879, (still possible i guess?). 

Kind regards,

Coreen

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / George Thomas Evans
« on: Sunday 29 May 22 10:34 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

This is a bit of a long shot but am looking for a George Thomas Evans whose birth was registered in Q3 1862 in Mile End Old Town, (born in Bethnal Green).

His parents were George Evans, (born 1833), a House Painter/Plumber/Glazier/Sign Writer, and Louisa Mary Ann Evans, (born 1837, maiden name also Evans).

I have traced George Thomas in 1871, when he is living with his parents, but have been unable to trace him from 1881 onwards, although in 1881, is possibly, the George Evans, aged 19, aboard the 'Mosquito', Royal Navy, Vessels, a boat mate. 

Was possibly a witness at brother, Charles', marriage in 1888 but this could also have been George Evans senior.   

Is definitely not the George Thomas Evans who married Louisa Jane Livett in 1882 as I have looked into this. There is another couple named George and Louisa Mary Ann, (sometimes Mary Ann Louisa), Evans who live in Bethnal Green. That George is a wood porter and this not the correct couple.

Kind regards,

Coreen
