Hi Jennifer,

She died in the Lambeth registration district in 1990. She was aged 41.

Hi everyone,

Could I please ask a big favour and ask if some kind sole would look up the following person on the electoral registers.

I am looking for a J P P J Shaw (born around 1945 in Ireland). He was living in the Stockwell area of Lambeth in the 1970's and 80's.

He was married to a May Shaw. They had 2 children that would have been eligible to vote in the 90's.

1. Removed
2. Removed

I believe the wife May died in 1990.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as a friend is trying to trace her father.


Thanks,

Linda

Thanks everyone.

The information that I gave previously is all that I know, so I think applying for his records is probably the way forward.

Thank you Nanny Jan,

I was wondering if there was a way of discovering what section of the RA he would have been in just by the number, but looking around on the internet I don't think that is possible.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to find out the Regiment or part of the Royal Artillery someone served in if you have their soldier number?

I found this out from the RA records on Ancestry.

Arnold George Revell Soldier number: 1708145

I know he was in Italy. I think he was on the AKAK guns.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Shropshire Lookup Requests / Re: Marriage in Stanton Lacy Please
« on: Sunday 18 May 14 14:47 BST (UK)  »
Just a quick update.

I noticed that they have put lots of Shropshire records onto Find My Past. I have taken out a months subscription and have now found another possible marriage.

The one mentioned previously in 1827 to Mary Hughes. Both first time married. .... and the second

in Stanton Lacy in 1831 to Mary Watkins. Both widows.

So how do I choose which one if either?  ???

Edward was born Stanton Lacy. The 2nd marriage details state that they were both from Stanton Lacy.

The Children seen to have been born nearer Ludlow though.

Any Ideas?

Hi Trish & Garstonite,

If you start looking at children it all starts to get rather complicated.

My direct ancestor was Richard Humphreys. He was born in Ludford in 1835. I have his baptism record confirmed and his parents were living at Saltmore. Now after extensive research I believe the Ludford baptism to be his even though it gives the father's name as Richard. I think this may have been a clerical error.

I too thought that Elizabeth (1832) could be the one in Richard's Castle as it's 1.2 miles from Ludford. I have not been able to find Ellen's baptism.

In 1841 they are in Cold Weston. In 1851 Edward is still in Cold Weston living next door but one to Richard (his son's) future family (the Medlicotts).

Unfortunately, this still doesn't get me any closer to finding Edward and Mary's marriage.  :'(

There is a possible marriage in Ludlow in 1827 to a Mary Hughes, but how can I find out if this is the right one?

Hi Trish,

Edward was born around 1801 in Stanton Lacy according to the 1861 census return.
They lived in Cold Weston according to the 1841 & 1851 census'. Unfortunately I don't know where Mary was from, as in the 1851 census return it just gives their place of birth as Salop, and by 1861 Edward was a widow. The 1851 shows Mary as being 7 years older than Edward.

All 3 of their children were born before General registration, so unable to make use of any birth certificates.  :(

Thanks for your time,


Linda
