That's the one! Can you tell me where to look for that? I'd like to see if he has any siblings with him. In particular Frederick Moody b 1853

United States of America / Message Boards for tracing American Ancestors
« on: Thursday 26 November 09 09:08 GMT (UK)  »
I've recently discovered my Oliver William Moody living in DuPage and/or Cook, Illinois and can trace him on US census 1900 - 1930. His daughter Minnie Moody married Herbert Grant Rosback in 1917 and they had two known children - Donald and Warren.
The other children of Oliver Moody were Florence, Leroy and Harry (or Henry). I've got death dates for Leroy and Harry, but nothing on Florence.
How can I find out more and possibly connect with living relatives?

Shropshire Lookup Requests / Shropshire Archives lookup please
« on: Wednesday 29 July 09 13:02 BST (UK)  »
If anyone is going to the archives, could they please check Church Stretton parish register marriages from 1812 to about 1816 - probably St Lawrence - for the marriage of George Lloyd to Mary or Mary Ann.
Many thanks

Linda

World War Two / French Army
« on: Sunday 05 July 09 21:25 BST (UK)  »
I have a one-page service record for my Dad in the French Army up to 1943 (which I knew about) but it starts again in the late 1950's saying he joined the Armee de-terre in Dakar as a resident of Nigeria. The final entry was 1961.

I know he was in Nigeria, but none of the family were aware of him rejoining the French Army. Does anyone have any ideas where I can get further information?

If anyone has access to baptisms in Pevensey I would really appreciate a lookup for Thomas French born about 1808.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Liverpool - trade directories

The childs name is Mary Ellen Reynolds. In 1891 she's in Birkenhead with Bernice S(o)utherland.

I found 15 Upper Pitt St on the 1881:
RG11/3615/5
Richard? Owen, 31; Annie Owen, 33 + son aged 1 day.

That was the address on the birth certificate, but doubt it housed Dr Dighton with housekeeper Mrs MacAlister and Servant Matilda Reynolds. I have found nothing on Matilda Reynolds!!

Thanks for that. At the moment I'm concentrating more on Allen Adair Dighton and trying to find out something of his background. I'd like to prove or otherwise that he was the father of a child born to a domestic servant living in or around 15 Upper Pitt St, Liverpool in January 1881. The child was raised by a foster mother in Birkenhead, but visited by top hatted, carriage driven gent who came bearing gifts...and cash. Of the mother, Matilda Reynolds, and baby there is no sign in the 1881 census.

Thanks for the replies. Historical directories don't have anything covering Liverpool at that time.

I've followed up Dr Dighton and his father, but haven't found them in Liverpool although they must have had some connection if found in Catherine St in 1913.
I'd like to place them in Liverpool around 1880....any ideas?
