« on: Wednesday 01 July 09 20:45 BST (UK)  »
I am on the trail of an ancestor who arrived at Southampton from Burma in 1939.  The Destination Address was given as ENDERLAY or ENDERLEY, PEEBLES.
Please can anyone say if the address could refer to a village near Peebles, an area of Peebles or perhaps a house name in Peebles?
Thank You

Canada / PURTON Family in Canada after 1894
« on: Friday 29 May 09 04:11 BST (UK)  »
Trying to locate the records of Sarah Isabella born UK 1875 and Maurice H PURTON born UK 1866 in Canada.
Sarah Isabella ne SANDERSON gave birth to Maurice Joseph PURTON 1904 at Bradbourne Alberta.  Husband  Maurice H PURTON was listed as a widower in 1911 Canadian Census and was a hired hand in BC. There may have been other children after 1904. I do know that Maurice Joseph was back in the UK by the UK 1911 census being cared for by an aunt.
Any advice gratefully received.

Ireland / KELLY family possibly Co Cavan?
« on: Thursday 28 May 09 10:34 BST (UK)  »
I am just beginning to search for  William KELLY who I believe Married Mary SMITH sometime before 1835. The only clue I have is a census reference to the  Co Cavan birthplace of his son James.
Any ideas as to sources etc. would be most welcome.
Many Thanks
