Dees Second Chance Scavenger Hunt. Everyone Welcome To Join In.

I sat down this morning and thought about all this. I decided to order the birth certificate of Sarah Ann Redwood 1852 Kingston as the first step. I decided against getting the birth certificate of John James at this stage in case the Sarah Ann one is the wrong one.

And this is what I will do.....but plans have been interrupted by a phone call telling me I now have a dogsitter and can go visit my new grandaughter on 15th May. Yippeeeeeeeeeeee

But any certificate ordered now would not be here before I go, so I shall wait until I arrive back home again.

In the mean time I shall email SAGHS here in South Australia and see what they have in the way of Devon records. As I'm a member, I can have an hour's research done for me for 22 AUD.

I do need to find out how to order the stuff from the Somerset Archives though, because that's on my list too.

I haven't got far trying to find any more info on the George Redwood, footballer for West Ham in 1910. Maybe I'll post a thread on here....but I'll ask on the ToT football thread first. There's a few who go on there who are fairly kowledgeable in this area.

Don't know that there is much more we can do at this stage. Any more bits and pieces will be gratefully received of course.


Thank you good friends......you've done a great job!

Thanks, Lesanne and Gadget.

So I know that at least he wasn't the dreaded George Sampson Redwood.....     

But it doesn't look like he's mine....

Hi,

I see that you are researching the name of Collings. I am interested in the name as Anthony Palmer Collings married  as a second husband an ancestor of mine called Joanna Stratton from Bristol,UK. I am descended from the first husband a John Clark of Bristol. I am trying to find out if there are other people researching the descendants of Anthony Palmer Collings and Joanna Stratton. I have a great deal of information about the Joanna's first marriage,

Regards,

Christopher
