Allen Family.
« on: Monday 22 May 06 15:52 BST (UK) »
Hello again,

Further to my last posting looking for John Henry Allen 1909 from Berkshire.....

I am now trying to find his father, Arthur Thomas Allen believed to be from the Wokingham area.
He would have been born circa 1880 and was a Domestic Gardener at some stage in his life.
Any help much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Pilandray

With the information provided then you should be able to come up with some candidates yourself.

I'd suggest these resources.
1901 (Index only)
http://www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk/search.asp?wci=person_search

BMd indexes:
http://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/rectype/vital/freebmd/bmd.aspx

and of course the 1881 census:
www.ancestry.co.uk

All the above are free to search.

Thank you Cookie, you're a star! With bit of luck I should be able to find out a bit more now. I am doing this for a friend who is poorly and I know he will be delighted.

Thank you once again.

Kind regards,

We believe we have a John Allen in the family we are researching.  Can you possibly give me a few more details.  Our Allen family lived on a farm in the Crookham Common Area of Newbury.  My Father Frank Allen was born to John and Bessie Cope (nee Allen)  in 1907.  It is a slight possibility that they are related.
