Hello!
Am excited to find this post as this photo has been in my family for ages and I was told that it was my  Grandfather,  Richard Bishop ( of lifeboat lodge  Mablethorpe) would be good to get in touch as I believe we have quite a few Bishops in common, from  Sheringham and later Grimsby.

Thank you Dathai.
Could you tell me please if the electoral rolls show only people over voting age or would children be on there too? I have a Philomena turned up and I am trying to find out if she is the same person the family knew as Phyllis! Thank you for any help.

Thank you Ellenmai, George married Ethel Jessie Mary Bunn on the 13th November 1917. His birth year working back from that would have been 1889 but I don't know exact date of birth I'm afraid. His address on the marriage cert is Westfield avenue, Selby.

Thank you for your help, that's amazing. How do I go about getting his service record now? I am not sure which of those numbers to look under and nothing is coming up on Ancestry.

Thank you both, I know he fathered a child in 1920 but that's all.

Is there a trades directory or similar for Dublin that I could look up a tailors ( Murphy) in please, I am also looking for cloth retailers who may have supplied tailors in the 1950's. Thanks for any help.

Any help,please, finding my grandfather, George Henry Wood  living in Selby Yorkshire. I have this on his marriage cert in 1917." 397735 Sapper Royal Engineers Foreman on Railway" but I have been unable to find an army record for that number. Thank you.

Family History Beginners Board / Blue coat schools
« on: Saturday 09 April 16 20:41 BST (UK)  »
Hello from a newbie! From the 1911 census I have found my grandmother Ethel Jessie Mary Bunn at the Blue coat school Birmingham. Can you tell me if I can find registers for these schools for other years, I would like to know how long she was there, is there a website or a book I can research from? Thank you.
