« on: Saturday 01 November 14 16:15 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for relatives of my grandfather, his name was Frederick George Kelsey born 1893 in Clewer Berkshire. I dont have much to go on. I know his father was Frederick William Kelsey . I have been on ancestors and got as much info as poss but would love to hear from anyone with any idea of relatives or if you are relatives

Hi AJ Kelsey

Welcome to Rootschat  ;D

We can't help with finding living releatives as Rootschat is a forum for finding our ancestors and we have a 'no living people' policy here.

New members are encouraged to read the 'guidelines for posting' here

http://www.rootschat.com/help/posting_guide.php

where there are links to hints and tips for finding living relatives.

I would suggest that you take a look at our surname interests table, the link is at the bottom of the screen in the brown area and add your name there.

So that we don't duplicate what you already know, have you found the family in the censuses?

Hi AJ Kelsey

I don't want to appear rude, but please try to type without having the 'caps lock' on.

If you can, please take a moment to click the modify button on your last post and edit your reply so that it it written in sentance case.

In internet language, using all capitals looks like you're shouting.

If you're looking for more help going backwards, please post details of the 1841 and 1851 censuses. I'm sure there will be people here willing to give it a go for you.

Hi AJ, not sure if you're still active on here, but i may have some answers for you.

FG Kelsey was my great grandad and i know a little of what happened to him. He was the first of the Clewer Kelsey's to settle in Essex. He was stationed at Shoeburyness Barracks along the Thames i believe in the gunner station. Subsequently met his wife and married in Westcliff-on-sea, Essex. I live around the area that he settled and building history around the family - slowly but surely. You may have the key to more of it by the sounds of it.

I would welcome contact to maybe help each other close some gaps.
