Northumberland / Re: Place Names and the Family Grieves
« on: Sunday 12 July 15 04:04 BST (UK)  »
thank you so much guys. I am definitely going to look into the James & Hannah family for him.
I did look at the 1911 census for Thomas and it has him Born 1841 Newcastle. Married. Hammerman/Blacksmith. It says he is a Lodger with the family he is with but it is actually his daughter and son-in-laws family Alice and Albert Jones.
I was looking at google maps and Jarrow and South Shields are so close together. and maybe it is just me here in Australia having a different idea on distances but Newcastle seems very close too.
Kay if Thomas was born at sea - how would I look into that? 
I had a look at some of the public trees with James (sibling) having parents James and Hannah. Weird that on all of them, they have only William, James and Adam as the children despite it clearly having Thomas, Mary A, and Elizabeth on the census's as well.
I also found on the 1871 Census of Thomas and Susan and family that the middle name of one of the children (John) is Millingen. That sounds like a surname to me. But I haven't been able to find anything to link that name.
Key you are amazing finding Hannah and James's marriage - I would never have found that!

Chempat - yes my Thomas did marry Susan and Emma - Susan died in 1884. He married Emma in 1886. Thank you for those points of Northumberland I'll check those out.
Kay99 - that is actually really helpful, I hadn't been able to find them for 1871.

Northumberland / Place Names and the Family Grieves
« on: Saturday 11 July 15 07:11 BST (UK)  »
I have an ancestor named Thomas Grieves he was born in 1842 or 1844 (according to the 1881, 1891, 1901 census records) but the locations on the census records I cannot find and as an Aussie I have no idea if they exist or how to find where they might be.
On the 1881 census it says he was born Joully Point, Northumberland. On the 1891 census it says he was born in Wechley Point, Northumberland. I know that Thomas was a Blacksmith - this is on all the census records I have and hiss marriage certificate.
I have his father as being James Grieves a Labourer - on Thomas's marriage certificate in 1863 London.
I have found a Thomas Grieves born in Meldon 1842 with a father James, but in all the census records for this meldon Thomas - it has him as a agri labourer. HELP! I am so confused with this one

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / William Stallard c1800 - Islington, help please
« on: Saturday 06 June 15 07:08 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

I have a William Stallard that I am hoping to find parents for.
I have him born 1800 Islington - according to the 1841 census and his burial record. He was a Fishmonger/Costamonger by trade.
He married 16/3/1817 St Brides, London to Elizabeth Chapman.
He died 14 July 1850 at Greenmans Lane Islington and was buried 21/7/1850 New Bunhill Fields Burial Ground - Lower Grounds.
But I can't find a birth record, preferably with his parents on it for him.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Australia / GOODE FAMILY - looking to connect with GOODE's from Sydney
« on: Friday 09 January 15 11:06 GMT (UK)  »
Hi everyone, I am trying to find members or links to the "GOODE" family in Sydney. My great grandfather was Amos Ashley Goode born in 1906 Rockdale, Sydney. He was one of 13. I have photos of his family and his parents who were Amos Goode and Lydia Maria Maude Heard. I would love to find someone who has them in their tree. I have not been able to put any names to the photos apart from my great grandfather and his wife, Emmeline Ikin. All I know from my grandmother before she died is that Amos and Emmeline were something of the black sheep of the family, they didn't have much contact with the family. I'd love to know more. I have managed to put together a fairly decent file of names and dates. I've been able to trace the Goodes back to Warwickshire in the 1790's. But as I've said it would be so nice to find some descendants of them, and my cousins. I have no one in my famly who is alive that remembers any of the Goodes or information about them anymore. thanks
I think the photo was taken about 1924

« on: Sunday 04 May 14 09:33 BST (UK)  »
Hi
I'm not sure if there is a lookup available for such an old record.
I have found a marriage for a John Henry Heskett to an Ann 1 Jan 1642 in Dacre, Cumberland.
I would really love to find her surname but so far I've drawn a blank.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks

thanks Pat
