Cork / Re: Frederick Donnell Macdonald marriage in Mallow
« on: Sunday 07 September 25 15:43 BST (UK) »I can see his father Alexander died 1879 Frederick would have been quite young and maybe unsure of his father's occupation
Rosie
Quite true and within about 10 months Frederick and his younger brother Normanhad been bundled off to a paupers school which would have been confusing. He had a second brother, Douglas, (my grandfather) who managed to stay at home with his mother until he went in the army and trained at Mallow which is why the family seemed to end up there.

Thanks ever so much to both of you.
His father Alexander was the soldier Frederick was a dairy worker

Thats confusing, his father was Alexander but he never was a soldier, he was a tailer.

Sorry Rosie. I'd missed your second post while typing. I tried getting into the census but without any luck. Are you able to give me a link for that.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Cork / Frederick Donnell Macdonald marriage in Mallow
« on: Saturday 06 September 25 14:06 BST (UK) »
I have found a reference to a marriage in Mallow, Co Cork for a Frederick Donnell MacDonald in October 1908 but it gives the spouse name as 'unknown'. I know he lived in Mallow in 1901 and his younger brother Douglas William was demobbed at Mallow in 1902 but l have been unable to find anything on this even in Mallow or Fredericks area of London. Does anyone know any more of this please?

Watson -
Thanks for the follow up. That gives me a good idea of where they were. When the libraries open up again I'll have a couple of hours in Central Library and see what I can find.
Larkspur -
Thanks for that additional info, so far I have nine children for Alfred Cope and Elizabeth / Jane / Elizabeth Jane /Jane Elizabeth from census and BMDs.
Andrew is a new one, not having appeared on any census but an Andrews death recorded Nottingham 1865
Walter appears to have been born Q2 1876 so must have been a late baptism. Walter baptised 1863 appears to have been born Q4 1859 and to have died Q3 1864.

Thanks a lot for those replies.
Watson - I'm familiar with Barker Gate, presumably Rushtons Place was a residential part. and it's been rebuilt.
Larkspur - I'm assuming your info is from PRs. I haven't been able to find any of them 0on the web as and I said before I'm working from Family Search and they're not strong on giving exact locations for census listings. I do know that in 1881 & 1891 they lived on Harley St, Lenton.
Thanks again to you both

Thanks for replying Rosie99 but I found it on Family Search and don't think I can do that on that site, used to be able when they only had 1881.
