Thank you for the correction about Sandringham. I just quoted what was

The Common Room / Sandringham Castle August 1943
« on: Sunday 28 December 14 23:26 GMT (UK)  »
Hello

     I am looking for someone who may have access to old British newspapers from 1943.
I am looking for any articles regarding the Irish Regiment of Canada that guarded
the Royal Family at Sandringham. This took place approx. August 4, 1943.

Thank you in advance

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Wolstenholme Family of Heywood and/or Heap
« on: Saturday 27 December 14 21:55 GMT (UK)  »
Hello from Ontario, Canada

    My ggg grandfather was James Wolstenholme. He was born April 17, 1836 in
Mill Heywood and sometimes recorded as Heap. He married Mary Evans Aug 3 1857 in
Bury. I am trying to determine who James' and Mary's parents were. Any help on this
would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Alan, from what I have been able to find, when she married William, she said she was a widow which we know was not true.


Marriage on the 4th May 1863 Saint Peters Church Worcester
William Daniels aged 37 a Bachelor occupation Labourer living at Little Park Street Father Thomas Daniels a Labourer.
 Diana Haynes aged 44 a Widow living at Little Park Street Father Edward Spragg a Blacksmith
 Witnesses: Henry Jones (his mark x)  & Hannah Daniels (sister / mother?)
 William Daniels made his mark x Diana Haynes signed.

I do know that the son that appeared on the 1871 census is her son with James. His name was John and he was my great grandfather.

Where do you fit into the tree?

Hi Alan,

   In 1861 Diana was living in Worcester. She also went by
the first name of Ann. I am a descendant of James
Haynes. He died in 1897. I do have details of when and
where they (William and Diane)were married.
