London and Middlesex / Mabel May Burrough

« on: Thursday 01 September 22 02:08 BST (UK) »

I am having a tough time trying to trace Mabel and need some help please.
Mabel was born 18 Jun 1889 Chiswick and baptised 2 Feb 1890.. Her parents were Richard Burrough and Emily Frances Haynes nee Horton.
1891 Chiswick- Mabel 1890 Chiswick with Richard and Emily and siblings
1901 Hammersmith- Mabel 1890 Chiswick with parents and siblings
1911Wandsworth- Mabel 1890 Chiswick, servant
The only marriage that may be her is registered Jun 1933 Paddington to Frederick W Lewis. I checked the 1939 register using Burrough and Lewis but no joy.

Lancashire / John McCarthy - Manchester Police Constable

« on: Thursday 25 August 22 02:15 BST (UK) »

I am having trouble tracing John after 1911.
He seems to be born abt 1861 in Ireland. In Oct/Dec 1888 Chorlton he married Emily Hatchett. John and Emily and family are shown as living in Hulme, Manchester in 1891, 1901 and 1911. I believe that Emily death is registered Jan/Mar 1915 Chorlton. I did not see John showing in the 1939 register

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Annie Thompson nee Crowther

« on: Tuesday 16 August 22 12:51 BST (UK) »

I would like to find what became of Annie if possible.
Her birth was registered Oct/Dec 1882 Huddersfield and her parents were William Crowther and Sarah Tyes. In 1891 Dalton she is shown as born 1883 Hanging Heaton. In 1901 Dalton she is shown as born 1883 Kirkheaton. Annie married Fred Thompson 7 Jun 1908 Huddersfield. In 1911 Battyeford she is shown as being born 1884 Kirkheaton. Fred Thompson death registered Oct/Dec 1924 Dewsbury( daughter Elsie married 1930 Battyeford and father deceased).
I can not find Annie in 1939 nor does there seem to be a death post 1911. There are a number of Annie Thompson marriages recorded in Dewsbury 1925-39 but I was able to find most couples on the 1939 register and none seem to be her.
Help required please.

United States of America / Mary Ann Teska parents

« on: Saturday 18 June 22 02:48 BST (UK) »

Mary Ann(1932-2008) married Robert Vester 30 Apr 1952 Cuyahoga Co, Ohio. The marriage cert shows her parents as Frank Vester and Emily Doskocil. Frank is correct but I believe her mother is Emily Willet as per 15 Aug 1931 Cuyahoga marriage. Emily and Frank separate and Emily marries Alfred John Widman(1907-1953) 29 Oct 1949.Cook Co, Illinois.
In 1950 Mary Ann and sister Delores are living in Cleveland with their grandmother Anna Doskeel. In 1940 they are with their father Frank (1910) and he is shown as divorced.
Tracing Frank is a problem because I can not reconcile the records. When Frank married Emily his parents were shown as John Teska and Anna Landstein and when Anna died her father was shown as Lonstein.
In 1930 Cleveland Frank is living with Anna who is shown as a widow. John Teska died 5 Sep 1926 and Anna remarried 15 Jul 1933 to Fred Doskocil. Anna parents shown as Joseph Landstein and Bertha Masek.
In 1920 Cleveland Frank(1912) is with his parents John and Anna and siblings James and Anna.
I can not decide if this family shows up in 1900/10 with a daughter Rose. A Rose Teska died 1913 Cleveland. Also there is a 15 Feb 1897 Cuyahoga marriage for John and Annie but she is not Landstein. I am wondering if there is more than one John and Annie Teska family with similar children ie James and Anna. Last but not least I can not find a death for Frank.

US Lookup Requests / June Lawlor - Michigan

« on: Friday 15 April 22 22:49 BST (UK) »

I am having a hard time tracing June after her marriage to Henry Aubert. They were married 13 Jun 1942 in Detroit. Henry died 19 Oct 1964.
I wonder if someone could have a look for an obituary for either a sibling or her mother? Hopefully one turns up and June is mentioned.
Mother Gladys Lawlor died 26 Nov 1977 in Cadillac, Michigan
Sister Shirley Sylvia Walters died 23 Apr 1997 in Cadillac
Brother Larry Edward Lawlor died 10 Dec 1973 Detroit
