Derry (Londonderry) / Re: PICKERING/PICKERAM and WILSON
« on: Wednesday 25 June 14 17:49 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I have Pickering ancestors from the same area too.

Foxglove, I am wondering if your Frances Pickering is a brother of my greatx4 grandfather Benjamin Pickering? He is listed living with his brothers Frances and George Pickering in the griffiths valuation. His son George also moved to Scotland.

Land5, George is the brother of your great great grandfather Henry Pickering. Georges son Samuel used Henry and Isabella as his contactable address in Ireland when he lived in Scotland :)

I am interested to share more and find out more about the Pickerings

Yeah, I have his death, he was shot in the leg in the war on the horse artillery in WW1, crazy that you could die from that back then!
Im not sure his sisters year of birth, but I believe she did move to Scotland at some point, but I couldn't say when, it was at a different time to William, as he went alone with his grandfather, to family in Scotland. I assume that she is younger and went after William went.

Hi Rosie,
Thanks for getting back to me and for having a look, yes that is the right William, I have him once he has moved to Scotland, and married to Mary, but really struggling to find anything on him before he crossed the waters from South Africa.

South Africa / William Broughton
« on: Thursday 12 June 14 14:03 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I am looking for any information on my great great grandfather William Broughton.
I am pretty new to searching South Africa's records, and can find no trace of him so far.

He was born 1869 in Cape Town, however it is possible that it was either Port Elizabeth or Durban.
He immigrated to Scotland around 1890 with his grandfather, James (unsure if James was a Broughton or a McKnight) He also had a sister called Margaret.
Any help with finding him or their line would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Yes, I had a good look round on the burial and baptisms indexes, and it all matches up pretty fluidly. Thanks for linking me to there  :)

Wow,thanks, really appreciated!
Are the parish registers only on microfiche and CD? Thats all I seem to be able to find of where they are. Its the first time I'm really delving into parish records, so just getting my head around them a bit more.

Cambridgeshire Lookup Requests / Peggy Tilbrook nee Bacon - Isleham - Completed, Thanks
« on: Thursday 20 March 14 12:50 GMT (UK)  »
Hello, Im new on here and am looking for the Tilbrook line in Isleham.
Namely, right now I am looking for help to find the death of Peggy Tilbrook,
born Peggy Bacon, married William Tilbrook (b 1794) in 1816, their last child, Jane was born in 1824  in Isleham. She then disappears and what I can only assume to be the same William Tilbrook is married again in 1841 and has had his first child, George with a lady called Susan in 1829.
I believe she died between 1824 and 1829 in Isleham or surrounding area, yet there seems to be no record of her death. If anyone is able to shed some light on this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
