Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: DAWSON - 1901 index Scarborough
« on: Saturday 25 June 16 07:47 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I have some information about about a Harry Dawson living in Scarborough c 1900's. He was captain of the Nelson Street Cricket Club. Their headquarters were on the corner with Trafalgar Street West opposite Davison's Coal Office ( an old Wesleyan Sunday School ). I think that this may be the sames Harry Dawson given on the 1901 census as a boot & shoe maker living in Bow Street and married to Edith Mary Dawson.  Living in Prospect Road on the 1911 census.

Hi,

I am researching a Victorian CDV photograph album and there is a photograph of a lady with the name Alice Clara Acworth written on the back. A lot of the photographers are in Croydon, Surrey. There are also two photos from Brisbane, Australia.

Census and Resource Discussion / Re: Theory about Philip Reeves plausible?
« on: Tuesday 29 September 15 09:51 BST (UK)  »
Hi, Thank you for posting the photograph of Ethel. I am sure that she would be delighted to get in touch with you. She did not have any information about her mothers Reeves family other than her mother Una Frances Lydia was born in Croydon. I ordered her mothers birth certificate and have been able to trace the family back on the census from her grandmother Constance.   As you know before the 1891 census it gets a bit difficult. Which of the Reeves daughters is your grandmother ?. She can remember as a child being taken to Sheffield to visit her mums's aunts and uncles who had moved there from Croydon. Ken.

Hi, I am researching the Reeves family for a friend and seem to have gone the same route as you have. Can not find her great grandfather Philip Thomas Reeves on the 1851 census. Very frustrating.   she is the granddaughter of Constance Reeves ( born Croydon ).  Who lived at 93, Old Town, Croydon. Do you have any old Reeves family photographs ?. Ken.
