Bristol Record Office
« on: Thursday 08 April 04 09:16 BST (UK) »
Is  any one going to the bristol records office in the near future at the main library on college green
I would love a quick look up on the 1950's electoral register
I have the address and people names, but i know there was a person in the same house whos surname i do not know, need to check if they were a realtive , to complete a branch of my tree
Thnaks in anticipation

people lving there, were Arthur Frederick Pippard his wife Linda gerturde mollie Pippard and two children, Michael Pippard and Judith Pippard, there was also a lady called May (honory aunt) i need to know her surname to see if she was a real relative of my husband

Hope this gets you before you leave,

Hi Angela
Thanks for looking, I cannot remember where i phoned  , i thought it was the record officeat college green.

If you do go again , i would still be very grateful.
wished i had started the family history when we lived in Bristol.
I now live in Lancashire, so if you need anything up this way just let me know.

Thanks again

Rose Pippard

p.s. whats the weather like down there, starting to look grey up here , they are promising bad weather coming from the south

ANGELA,

you are a real star, we now know who Auntie May  was, yes she was a real aunt on Frederick Pippard's side , i think his mothers's sister(his maiden  aunt)

I cannot thank you enough, this has cleared up a brick wall, that has been niggling me.

hope you are feeling better with your teeth,
 Thanks again rosie Pip
