Thanks for the interest so far.

the poster on the left is advertising Lincoln Fair to br held 10th-12th April
the other poster appears to be headed Boot Repairs.
and there does appear to be a clock above what could be a jewellers shop.
I dont have access to the original Photo so cant enhance it.

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Lincolnshire Life Museum looking for help
« on: Thursday 03 July 14 12:40 BST (UK)  »
Thiis photo has been posted by the Museum of Lincolnshire Life in the hope that someone can identify the location. It was possibly taken in 1912-1913. So far there has been no luck in tracing the businesses in Lincolnshire. The poster is advertising Lincoln Fair. Having taken a closer, look the three motorcycles on the left all have registration plates with the prefix letter C. This was used in Yorkshire up to 1912.
Any ideas out there?

Thank you

Thanks for taking the time to look for me, I realise that it's a long shot it's just a shame the original records are no longer available.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Manchester inquest report Emma Annie Cooling 1909
« on: Monday 15 November 10 20:52 GMT (UK)  »
Is anyone able to help find information with regard to the inquest of Emma Annie Cooling held in Manchester on 17th March 1909. Annie died aged 36 on 13th March from pneumonia due to Coal Gas poisoning. The coroner. Ernest Gibson returned an open verdict. Emma died at home, the Wellington Hotel back Pocadilly. Emma's husband was William Kellett Cooling the licensee of the Wellington Hotel. I have been told that no inquest records for Manchester survive from this period and that the only possibility is to find a newspaper report of the inquest. I live in Lincoln and am unable to get over to Manchester in the forseeable future. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mary, Sorry I must have missed your message.

I am not entirely sure if there is a connection.

As the Hare family are not a blood line I have not done a great deal of research on them as yet.

I am really hoping that a close family member will find this posting so that the photos can be returned to the Hare family.

Keep searching if you find a definite link let me know.

Regards Steve

Norfolk / Re: George Fisher Norwich Prison 1841
« on: Tuesday 25 March 08 22:35 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Ev

Thanks for your interest.

All I have to go on is the fact that our George appears on the 1851 Census in Lincoln living at 71 Bailgate with his wife Harriet a local girl from Saxilby about 6 miles from Lincoln. On the census george gives his place of Birth as Barton Mills in Suffolk.

I have only been able to find one Fisher family in Barton Mills at this time, George & Frances (Ann).

I have a copy of our Georges Marriage Certificate dated 4th July 1848. George gives his fathers name as George Fisher and profession as a labourer.

Other than that I cannot confirm the relationship.

If someone can trace a birth or baptism for our George that would help confirm things.

I hope this information is of help.

Thanks again Steve

Norfolk / George Fisher Norwich Prison 1841
« on: Monday 24 March 08 20:46 GMT (UK)  »
Is anyone able to help?

I am Missing a George Fisher born C 1820 in Barton Mills Suffolk.

The only George I have been able to find is an inmate in the Castle prison Norwich.

Is there any way of finding out where this George fisher came from? Are the prison records available for this period?

His father George was born in Thompson Norfolk C1796 an the moved to Barton Mills where he and his family stayed.

The George I am looking for appears in Lincoln in the 1851 census working as a manservant & Groom.

He is the only member of the family that moved north his siblings eithe went to London or stayed around the Mildenhall area.

Thanks in anticipation

Steve

Thanks for your interest.
Samuel Hare & his wife Elizabeth (Cooling) lived at the Water Mill, Tattershall Thorpe which was unfortunately destroyed by fire some years ago. I remember it derelict as a child when my dad used to take me fishing in the Mill pond and along the river Bain. Happy memories.
