Family History Beginners Board / Re: Investigating Chilean Ancestry
« on: Saturday 21 June 25 18:02 BST (UK)  »

Hi,

Welcome to RootsChat :)


Familysearch has some Chilean records, you have to make an account but it is free.

https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/location/south-america/chile

There are lots of BEHAR and BEJAR record to be found there.

Maybe Eli didn't want to live in Scotland with his mother and James BARRATT and hoped he could go and live with the WHEDON's. I wish we could find them in 1881, I'm wondering if Eliza left William rather than him leaving her.

I also found a newspaper picture of Eli WEBB after he went missing, how hard it must have been.

Hi,

I found this newspaper clipping which seeem to confirm all the information that has been found.

William WEBB's half-sister Eliza LANGLEY married Eli WHADON in 1862, this makes Eli WHADON Eli WEBB's uncle.

Lancashire / Re: where is William Jones ??
« on: Thursday 19 June 25 22:59 BST (UK)  »

Hi,

I realise that this is an old post and you mighht have found this already, but just in case  :)

In 1921 William JONES age 49, born Mold, Smiths Striker, is married to Ann and living in Liverpool. Both FindMyPast and Ancestry have transcribed his POB as Lincolnshire but the image clearly shows Mold, Flintshire.

Looking at electoral rolls William and Annie are living at the same address, 55 Coniston Street from 1918 to 1923, then Annie is there from 1924 until 1955. I wonder if William died in 1923/1924?

Hi,

An old post I know and you may have this info already, but just in case I found a marriage of Henry LENNOX to Sarah LENNOX in 1840, Armagh. It looks like your theory was right.

Hi,

An old post I know, so you might have found this already but just in case,


Marriage

England Roman Catholic Parish Marriages

05 Nov 1865  Parish:  Rotherhithe, St Peter & Guardian Angels

Elizabetha  CARROLL
Father:  Edmondi  CARROLL
Bride

Joannem  BUTLER
Father:  Jacob  BUTLERI

Diocese:  Southwark


This also shows that Elizabeth's father was Edward not John.


Looking at the 1861 Daniel DRISCOLL census both Ellen and Eliza were born in Ireland, if they were Elizabeth's sisters maybe she was born there too. Could Eliza be Elizabeth?
