Pembrokeshire / Re: Burial of William SMITH

My husband descends from Lucy Smith, daughter of William, and William Bowen.  Would love to share information.  Please let me know if you see this response and we can organise how to contact.  Pam

Europe / Re: Research in Palermo, Sicily
« on: Monday 20 July 15 09:24 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for your help.  I have been to the site you mention and performed a search - no luck with the name in that place however.  I was trying to put a request in the "Collaborative Assistance" section but it doesn't seem as though there is any assistance available for Italy.  A very interesting site though - will be back to check it out more carefully. :)

Europe / Research in Palermo, Sicily
« on: Thursday 16 July 15 02:44 BST (UK)  »
I am attempting to help a woman who has no knowledge of her birth father.  She has recently undergone DNA testing and we now believe that her father's ancestry would be a mix of Western European, Southern European and Middle Eastern.  We have found a DNA match and we are working on his family lines in the hope of identifying her father.  I am currently looking at a family from Carini, Palermo, Sicily.  While I have found some Sicilian info on Ancestry and Family Search, I cannot find the marriage of the particular couple I am looking for.  I also do not understand any Italian so research could be difficult.  Is there anyone who could point me in the right direction and offer suggestions of how to proceed?

One Name Studies: H to M / Re: HARRIS From Buckingham, Buckinghamshire, England
« on: Wednesday 17 June 15 07:33 BST (UK)  »
I have done my testing on Family Tree DNA but only autosomal.  I don't actually know any Harris family males who I could ask to be tested.  I am wondering if you could email me at
jcooperp@yahoo.com.au
so that we can discuss in more detail.
Cheers, Pam

I have HARRIS ancestry in Buckinghamshire.  My line goes back to a Henry Harris & Rachael nee Symonds who ran the Bull & Butcher pub at Ludgershall, Bucks.  I haven't found a James Harris married to Mary Spicer, however there could be a link further back in time.  I have done the Family Finder autosomal DNA test on Family Tree DNA.  Did your husband test with that company?

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Tatham baptism lookup please - Mary RICHARDSON
« on: Tuesday 19 May 15 09:11 BST (UK)  »
Thanks everyone!  At least I can now eliminate Tatham from my search.  The one in Lancaster is looking promising but I'm also looking at a Quaker birth around the right time.  I do have some Quakers in the next generation.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Tatham baptism lookup please - Mary RICHARDSON
« on: Saturday 16 May 15 08:12 BST (UK)  »
I am wondering if anyone has access to the Baptism records of Tatham.  I am looking for the baptism of MARY RICHARDSON circa 1690-1710.  Mary married John Bowker/Bouker/Booker at Tatham in 1729.  She was "of Tatham" when they married.  Would be very grateful for some help on this one.

Buckinghamshire Lookup Requests / Cublington lookup
« on: Saturday 04 October 14 08:26 BST (UK)  »
If someone has access to Cublington PRs, I would very much appreciate a lookup.  Thomas Harris married Mary Moles at Cublington on 22 April 1812.  I would like to know if they stayed in Cublington and had children baptised there subsequent to 1812.  I would also like to know if Mary Moles was baptised at Cublington circa 1785.
With thanks,
Pam Cooper, Queensland, Australia

Kent / 1816 Marriage at Lee, Kent
« on: Tuesday 26 August 14 09:51 BST (UK)  »
I am wondering if anyone has access to the Marriage Registers or BTs for Lee, Kent.  I believe my 3 x Great Grandparents married there on 26 August 1816.  They were ROBERT WALKER and HARRIET SWINDELLS.  I am hoping there will be some other information in the marriage entry which will prove or disprove this couple fit into my family.  Any lookup would be much appreciated.
