Where are the Maycock's
« on: Wednesday 25 July 07 19:57 BST (UK) »
Can someone help me to find my grandparents William and Lucy  Maycock. William was born in 1876 and Lucy (nee Bowers) in 1892.  They were married in 1916 in Ramsey and the wedding certificate was witnessed by Arthur Bedford and Lily Bedford. I have been unable to find any trace of any of these people, or Lucy's twin brother Fred Bowers.

There is a William Maycock, son of Samuel and Elizabeth, in the 1881 and 1891 censuses, born and living in Ramsey.

Does this sound like your grandad?

Hi Mike
Yes that's him. I know he was still around in 1916 but it's after this date that  I completely lose trace.

If you tell us who their fathers were, who will be named on the marriage cert, we might be able to find them in censuses

Or are you looking for them since 1916, rather than going back in time?

You say on an earlier posting that he was a soldier. Have you checked on the CWGC site to see if he was killed in the war?

Do you have the birth cert of your father/mother, which will show where they were living at that time. Were there any uncles/aunts on this side of your family?

Jessie, Lucy and Fred were part of a large family living in Sutton St James, Lincs in 1901. Do you have these details?

Hello Tibby,  There was a Arthur Bedford age 6 born Ramsey on 1901 census.

Do you know where your parents were born ? & when ? - might help us pinpoint your grandparents.

Hi John.
Who did Jessie Bowers marry ?  I wonder if the  both families were living together in Ramsey and then set off for distant shores ?
