Look Up ,Please - poss Guernsey
« on: Monday 28 March 05 23:38 BST (UK) »
My multiple great grandmother was Ann HAVELOCK and I have never been able to find her birth/parentage to date.  The Census returns have her listed as born inf France twice (British subject) but one has Guernsey.  Her age didn't change to match the census years - she didn't always age ten years from to another! SO it is hard to judge when she was born but probably between 1795-1810ish...

She may well have been from a military family - according to oral tradition she was closely related to Charles, Henry and William HAVELOCK - all distinguished army officers -but this may be wishful thinking on some ancestors part.
