Worcestershire / Re: Confused by Pardoe family of Ombersley - were there two Hannahs?
« on: Yesterday at 21:35 »
I've followed this thread with great interest but so far can't find the connection with my own Pardoes of Ombersley.  There must be one somewhere waiting to be uncovered!
I definitely have no Woodwards in my tree.
I'll keep looking.
Thanks for all the information which will be there if ever found to be relevant to my lot.

Doesn't directly help, but FamilySearch has a record  for the death in 1859 of Jane Devine aged 1, daughter of Charles Devine and Jane Smillie; she died in Glasgow.

Oh OK, since you posted
'expats working in East Pakistan in the 1950s–60s' I was looking at the wrong dates.
Back to the drawing board!

May I ask how you know he went to work in Bangladesh?
If he was in Tranmere around 1950 and back in Birkenhead to marry in 1955, his stay was not very long.

Ancestry can't add up at all.   ;D
I got a 'hint' yesterday via email.

We found hints for you in our new and updated collections.

There is a Thomas Kennedy in Knock on the 1901 census


Residents of a house 25 in Meeltran (Knock North, Mayo)

Cannon   Julia   45   Female   Head of Family   Roman Catholice  Dressmaker
Kenny   Thomas   48   Male    Brother   Roman Catholice Mason
Kennedy   Thomas   19   Male    Nephew   Roman Catholice Farm Labourer
Kenny   Lizzie   10   Female   Niece   Roman Catholice  Scholar

Thomas senior is a widower.

May be a red herring, of course.

Have you seen the Wiki entry?
