[rcuser]

Hi,

I am doing a one name study of the Rossiter family and am looking for information please about the parents, grandparents, siblings and children of Boaz Rossiter who was born in the Dudley area circa 1845.

Any information would be greatly appreciated please. TIA.

Best wishes

Hi lizdb,

Many thanks for that.

I did a search on FreeBMD before posting and found the same thing.

I was hoping to find Boaz's parents in the census to see if they could be found in both areas to prove that they had moved from one area to the other.

Is it possible to post details of any of the Rossiters in that area please? I have a sizeable database and its possible I have their ancestors in it but am missing the vital link.

Best wishes

Sorry? Do we know who Boazs parents are then?

If you tell me their names, ages etc I'll have a look in 1851

Or are you just wanting any Rossiters in Wigan? Dont know the area myself, so wont pick up on those round about (what county is Wigan in?)

Hi lizdb / jamajo,

Unfortunately, I don't know Boaz's parents.

I do have some Wigan Rossiters but don't know if they are related.

I recognise Ellen with son Ralph but am not sure about Joseph the moulder.

I have Solomon & Eliza in my database and have them listed with 2 children but don't know who their parents are or if there are any descendants from sons Solomon and William ( born 1842 - not listed)

The name Boaz seems to come from Somerset and I wonder if a member of a Somerset Rossiter family moved to Dudley to set up a family. Boaz could be a son of that family member.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes

You only course of action is to get Boaz's birth cert.
