German Pork Butchers in Britain

The two other men who died beforehand were killed in an accident in June 1875, shortly before Andrew Raab met his fate.

They were Michael Russell aged 22 of 47 Chisenhale Street L'pool and Thomas McDonough aged 45 of 4 Wellington Street, L'pool.

I looked at your Fatalities' List but couldn't find them.

I will PM you with the details.

Hello! My wife is the great granddaughter of George Michael Weidner. His daughter, Beatrice Weidner, married a Thomas Henry Hibbert; their daughter, Beryl Christine, was my wife's mother - she married William Grimshaw. You'll find our full family tree on Ancestry.com - same profile, marklewis49. I'd love to make contact with anyone with information on the Weidners. Best wishes, Mark

Hello Mark

Welcome to the pork butchers!

There is a database for them on here and you will find that there are more members related to the Weidners.

BTW Christine Belschner was originally from Niederstetten. I had been researching George Michael Weidner together with Histres (also a member on here) and when I mailed him the 1911 census he said that it must be the birth place of Christine as George came from Enslingen.

I have visited your tree on Ancestry and will message you from there, as well, after looking at my notes to see if I have any extra information.

I'm sure Histres will be delighted to make your acquaintance.

Gill, thanks for your swift and positive response. I look forward to receiving your feedback on my Ancestry tree; and to meeting Histres via email. Best wishes, Mark

Hi
I have recently put some new names on the PB database but have now seen that I have inserted some addresses in the wrong place and would like to make amendments.  When I try to edit the amendments are not accepted.  Do I have to wait a while before I can edit?

Hello Limehouse,

I've just changed some of the source code for the database. Before I look into your problem, can you try again with your changes- maybe it has sorted itself out (I hope !!) but if it still doesn't work, pleas let me know the exact record with the fields you are trying to edit.

Thanks,
Bob

I have just found your discussion & would like to add that my husband is descended from Andrew Raab & Susan Gunn. His great grandmother was Margaret Raab who emigrated to Brisbane Australia & married Andrew Stewart. She died in 1944. We assumed he was born in Scotland & are really interested in this new info.
Thank you
