BallyaltikilliganG,
Thank you for replying to my post and for all the information. I will have to check it all out.
I've just put the basic information I have on my Costley family in the hopes that someone else with an interest in this line might one day see it and get in touch.
It's through posts submitted by rootschatters that I connected with relatives on other branches so hoping to do the same here.
I should have thought of the
Tithes Applotment Books and
Griffiths Valuation. I've been using and cross-referencing information from the Census Records & Civil Records (BMD) and should think about broadening my resources.
I am stuck with some of John & Eliza's children (
Catherine,
Eliza Ann & 1
unknown). The 1911 census mentions 8 "living" children.
Would you say that's an 8? (see document attached)
I initially thought this migth not be accurate and that some of them might have died at birth or during childhood but information concerning other children has been relatively accurate.
I've tried first & last name variants, maiden names of mothers during relevant timeframes, immigration records, canadian & usa census records (obviously limited as I don't know their married names if they had one before immigrating)...they don't show up on other family members records (present at birth/death, marriage witnesses, next of kin, etc).
Would you have any other suggestions on where or how to look? Thanks again,
SJ
