Thanks heaps Cass

Found a couple. It is always great to find pieces of someone’s story, not just their family tree.

Thanks again,

Looking to find information on children living in foster care with Ella and Wally BRIESE at Wattle Park Jindera around 1945 to 1960. Particularly looking for Patricia Witt.

Thanks heaps David,

I really appreciate the hints on how to find people in www.freereg.org.uk.

I am now a member of the Yahoo Hundred group and can't wait to get started searching.

Thanks again,

Thanks again Claire,

www.freereg.org.uk is fantastic for checking records, but I haven't found a way to get a list of all children born to same parents. You seem to have to know they exist first?

Took a bit to work out how to use the somerset website, but finally found the Fussells.
 
Pity the records aren't available to view online.

I'll keep on searching
Thanks again,
Karen

Hi Claire,

Sorry for the lack of reply. Forgot that 'enter' didn't post reply

Thanks heaps for that.
Lots of info I didn't know.

As there were no census' prior to 1841, is there another way of finding family groups? 
Or do we just have to randomly find them individually?
(I am in Australia so can't get to the Somerset area to look for records, I have to rely on the internet)

Thanks Again,
Karen

Somerset / Finding FUSSELLS
« on: Sunday 06 November 11 02:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I keep finding Fussells but none seem to be mine. 

The furthest Fussell back that I am definitely related to is Henry Fussell who married Sarah Bachelor. They married in Holborn 4th November 1851

I believe Henry was born in Hinton Blewett & then baptised 22 July 1827.

His parents are listed as Joseph and Ann Fussell and he apparently had siblings: Hester b abt 1816, Mary Ann b abt 1817 and John b abt 1820.

So far I have been unable to find more info about Joseph and Ann or their daughters.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Karen

Thanks to all for continuing the search.

The Gaelic can make things quite confusing. Thanks for the help with that.

Not sure about Eca, in Victoria, but will check it out. Echuca does make sense though!

Recently found out (through Robert) that Alexander's brother Lewis was also in 'Sidney" Australia 1853.
Another interesting link to follow.

Thanks Everyone,
Carna, aka Karen
