John SMITH married Mary SUISTED

[Beg Clonrode...]

Hi again...

Does anyone mind if I link to the US board for advice on searching in New York. I know it's heading away from "start with what you know" but I'm curious to see if Adolf and Eliza lead somewhere. Would be handy if Adolf turned out to be a maternal uncle to John SMITH (1856-1930)

Apparently this Eliza's Will is part of US Case Law (Thompson v. Seastedt 1875). Wonder how you could get to see a copy of the Will, assuming it still existed.

Here is the case.... http://www.forgottenbooks.com/readbook_text/The_New_York_Supreme_Court_Reports_1876_v6_1000083151/99

Hi Ian...

It really is amazing what can be found online if you look hard enough. This internet thingy must surely rate up there with the invention of the wheel :-)

Am assuming the "niece by marriage" is Ellen ROSE.

Here's my thread on the US board asking for New York advice. Seems Adolph was from Stockholm. Bit of a nuisance.

Just for the record, FreeBMD mentions an Edward Valentine SMITH born 1861 Q1 in Marylebone, London. Would be nice to find out the names of his parents. This Edward doesn't seem to be on FreeCen 1861 or 1871 but that may simply be because he has yet to be transcribed.

Hi
I understand that, but I think it is strange that the name Suisted stated on the marriage certificate is not in some way connected to the Suisteds in New Zealand. I do believe there to be a connection anyway.

As part of that search, I have Charles Suisted's petition for naturalization, purchased from the National Archives UK. May be of interest to others researching this family, if nothing else. Unfortunately, it's too big to upload here but happy to send to anyone interested.

Hello Ian...

Ooops...I most likely edited my post and didn't notice your following post. Sorry about that :-)

How did you find them in the Household register. I saw Götgatan mentioned in the birth register but couldn't see it in the index page of the Household register (at the front of the book). And I still can't see the family on page 161 of Katarina AI:108-109 (1856)

My eyes must be going. Time for bed :-)

Hi Beg,

It says on the birth record that they lived in Wägaren Quarter.

Sofia is a widow and her name is Roos not Sjöstedt. They are about half way down on page 161.
