Thank you all for the information and help in such a short time, much appreciated. I've found the marriage of the parents of Bridget Webb. Charles Webb and Bridget Commerford married 18 Aug 1880 in Queenston,Ontario, Canada. Charles was 24 and the son of Alfred Webb and Jane who were also living in Canada.

It would be interesting to know where Charles was born in 1856 and where in England his parents Alfred and Jane married.
Are there Immigration records online? If Elizabeth Bowman was born in Germany her surname probably was Baumann in German but its complicated to research someone without knowing the name of place or county there were from

United States of America / Shaffer and Webb of Syracuse
« on: Monday 29 July 24 01:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I need help in finding the right ancestors of Charles F Shaffer and his wife Bridget Josephine Webb.
Charles Shaffer was born 25 March 1879 Syracuse, Onondaga County, New York, USA and died there 10 October 1951. Bridget was born 1 August 1883 New York and died 12 June 1963 Syracuse, Onondaga, New York, USA. The Information are from an online tree and i want to verify the information and need help to find their parents and grandparents. I know that Online trees are not always accurate, thats the reason why i'm reaching out for help.
The tree says that the parents of Charles were Jacob Shaffer from Germany and his wife Elizabeth born in Germany June 1849 and died in Syracuse 5 April 1920. Bridgets parents were Charles Webb born 1856 Brentford;England and Bridget Commerford. I'm interested in the Shaffer from Germany and Webb line from England to link them to my own tree and find a connection. I don't need Information on the Commerford family.
Can someone help me? I'm not familiar with research and Genealogy in the U.S
Jane

Hello,
I'm looking for the birth of Michael Francis NAUGHTON and his wife Agnes McTaggart, both are deceased(2009 and 2019). The Couple married in Hampstead in 1950, But I can't find their births in the UK. Agnes had a brother called Charlie McTaggart. Can someone help me? I'm interested to find out more about their origins and ancestors.
My Cousin is their granddaughter and asked me to do some research because she knows absolutely nothing. The surnames sounding Irish or Scottish to me

He may have been married twice. It would make sense because Mary was born in 1796 and Robert 11 years later 1807. Are there any other possible marriage in Berkshire or maybe Wiltshire/Oxfordshire between a William Hitchman and Elizabeth? The marriage 1783 in Wantage is still a possibility

Thank you Guys! I’ve also made a post about Mary Hitchman some time ago and I’m quite sure to habe the right baptism of Mary 1796 Wantage daughter of William and Elizabeth. https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=855149.9
Robert b. 1807 could also be a brother or maybe there were two couples named William and Elizabeth in Wantage at the time ?

Hi,
I have a marriage between William Hitchman and Elizabeth Tilling in Wantage 1783. I have them as the parents of Mary Hitchman born 1796 and possible brother Joseph born 1792 Wantage. Is this the right marriage for the couple ? I can not find any other children so is there another possible marriage in the area between William Hitchman and an Elizabeth?

Thank you so much Colin for your help, much appreciated Maybe William Stacy and Susanna Kimbel were born close to Chertsey but those parishes are not online or destroyed.
Thanks to the burial of Susanna Kimbel of Cropredy Oxfordshire I can eliminate this one too.
The name Kimbel seems rare in Surrey. I can see no other couple in Chertsey with the name Kimbel

Hey ,
I’m still looking for the baptisms of the above couple. Can someone help me ? There’s maybe one in Oxfordshire for Susanna Kimbell but I’m not sure because it’s not very close to Chertsey,Surrey where the couple lived
