The Lighter Side / Re: family bible mystery - help please!!!!
« on: Friday 08 July 05 10:07 BST (UK)  »
I'm afraid I can't find any links yet  but have some possible marriages of Bartons (who seem to be from Portsmouth according to IGI extracted records:

A Fanny Rebecca Barton married Willian Charles Johnson 1852 in Alverstone (IGI) +  Alverstoke    2b   689 sep 1852 (freeBMD)

Elizabeth Agnew Barton married Hiram Edwin Mildred 1859 St. Thomas Portsmouth,  (Portsea I.    2b   650 sep 1859)
(They are at rg9 643 in 1861 and RG 11/1145 f46 in 1881. In 1881 there is a 9 year old Augusta Hogsflesh visiting)

There is also in the IGI a marriage of a George Barton to a Jane Colenutt in 1821 Portsea which could be the George and Jane from the bible?

Don't know if any of these additional names might help you find a link....

Hi Nikki,

Are the Allens the ones from Chichester, Sussex?
I found in the IGI records for the christenings of William and Harriet there.

There is also a user-submitted entry (so we don't know the accuracy) of a marriage of a :
Peter Allen b. 1767 Chichester to a Harriet Grover in 1790 in Lewes Sussex

Do you know what the connection is between the Allens and the Bartons? It doesn't seem immediately obvious from the names that you listed. Not that it will help with finding the connection to your Croxson's necessarily, but you never know.

Best regards,

Emily

And Adeliza and Samuel are living on the Loughborough Rd, Quorndon, Leicester in 1881 with several children....he is a "gentleman".

Also in St Peters on the IGI there looks to be the marriage of Agnes's sister Addiza/Adeliza to a
 SAMUEL B. W. D. Q. W. WOODROFFE in 1861.

Pobably you can have another challenge to try and find out all his middle names :)

Hi Holly,

The IGI has an extracted record for the baptism of:

Agnes Pratt parents William and Eliza
5 May 1839, St Peters, Nottingham

Theres also a John William christened to the same parents in 1837 and an Adeliza in 1840

So it looks like William and Eliza are her grandparents rather than Aunt/Uncle

Hi Findo,

There is a maybe possible Brooks family at RG9/160 in Hackney at 1861 (I don't have access to the full data, but I'm sure someone else will be happy to supply it.)

Sarah's birthplace looks a bit out though. And Alfred is somehow an Arthur....but they seem otherwise very similar to the ones you are looking for.

John Wm Brooks Head bn c.1827 XX, Essex living Hackney, Middlesex
Sarah A Brooks bn c. 1831 XX, Kent, England living ""
Thomas Brooks son bn 1856 Hackney, Middlesex ""
Arthur Brooks son bn 1860 ""


With the 1851 and 1841 censuses it is likely going to be quite difficult to find your Brooks' and East's unless you have some idea of an address maybe (as they aren't completely indexed I believe)

Maybe you will have some luck if someone can give you the 1861 address for the above, and if you have an address from the wedding cert from 1853 or from the birth cert. of one of the sons maybe?

Best regards,

Emily
