Completed Census Requests / Re: To locate a street in 1841 Census (Hart St, Bloomsbury, London)
« on: Sunday 23 November 08 23:46 GMT (UK)  »
My goodness!
I did not expect such a rapid response!
Thank you so much, Gadget and Carol!

I am reasonably sure that it was Hart Street at or around Hanover Square.
I shall go check out the references you gave to see if they fit.

Completed Census Requests / (COMPLETED) To locate a street in 1841 Census (Hart St, Bloomsbury, London)
« on: Sunday 23 November 08 23:19 GMT (UK)  »
Hello.
I have spent hours trying to locate Hart Street, in Bloomsbury, London, 1841 Census, using Ancestry.com, to no avail.
If there is anyone with a street index who is willing to locate the reference for the census page/s in which Hart Street is located, I will be eternally grateful.

I apologise in advance if this is the wrong section for this request...

..... Steven.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Lookup Request 1841 Census - ROBINS
« on: Monday 24 March 08 13:46 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you so very much, Bryant.
Despite repeatedly scouring for them, I had indeed missed these two examples.
I cannot think how I missed the latter, as I have searched on Robins, Robin, etc, etc.
Cornelius, however, I missed because I had thought that Robin'SON' was not used until much later in the family history.
You have taught me an extremely valuable lesson - NOT to assume anything and to consider everything.

I shall digest the details you have so kindly unearthed for me and see what new  avenues they might open!

Again, I sincerely thank you...
..... Steven.


P.S. - I cannot help but wonder what, if any, connections you might have to the above.
I wonder because Bryant is a branch of my family (connected via Wileman through to my mother).

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / 1871 Census Lookup Request in Cheshunt
« on: Wednesday 17 May 06 19:12 BST (UK)  »
I have been searching the 1871 Census in Cheshunt for Sarah Elizabeth Howlett, possibly with her son William (born 1864) and daughter Sarah Elizabeth (born 1865).

I use Ancestry.co.uk, and have searched every district in Cheshunt except for District 4, which is not listed in Ancestry.co.uk, for whatever mysterious reason.

If there is anyone who is able and willing to lookup Cheshunt District 4 for Sarah, I would be very grateful indeed.

Thank you for your interest and assistance...

Completed Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / Re: MARRIAGE LOOKUP REQUEST at CASTOR/PETERBRO' (Christiana Charlotte Wright)

I shall send for the Marriage Certificate immediately!

Yes, Maurice was married several times, I'm told.
Some people are gluttons for punishment! :)

Thank you again, Daisy.
You've been wonderful.

Completed Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / Re: MARRIAGE LOOKUP REQUEST at CASTOR/PETERBRO' (Christiana Charlotte Wright)
« on: Thursday 11 May 06 19:39 BST (UK)  »
Thank you so very much for your time and effort, Daisy!

I know her marriage age from her age at the 1851 Census.
The ages of her children were exact in both censuses in which they are mentioned, so I leaned to the belief that her age was also accurate (though by no means a certainty).

I much prefer 'your' Charlotte, as it is very unlikely that there were two Christiana Charlotte Wrights born in Castor during the same relatively short window of time.

Again I thank you, Daisy!
<Hugs you until your face turns blue>

Completed Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / COMPLETED - Marriage Lookup Request (Christiana Charlotte Wright)
« on: Thursday 11 May 06 17:35 BST (UK)  »
In 1842, at the age of 25, Christiana Charlotte Wright (Charlotte Wright was her most used name), born at Castor, married my GGGgrandfather, Maurice Wileman at Peterborough.

I found her on the 1841 Census at the address of John & Rebecca Freeman.
It caused me to wonder if she had married before (could be John's relative, and therefore a 'Freeman', or was Rebecca's relative and therefore a 'Wright').

If her birth surname was Freeman, then she must have married a Mr Wright (forgive the pun), and to help eliminate possibilities, I wondered if there might be someone willing and able to do a lookup for such a marriage at Castor and Peterborough before 1837, either as Charlotte Freeman or as Christiana Freeman.

Thank you for your interest and assistance in this matter...
..... Steven.
