Hello!
I am visiting Jersey with my husband and baby girl for a few days in June (can't wait!) We were also  hoping to be able to pay our respects to some of my husband's ancestors. Can anyone tell me how I could try and find out where they are buried before we come?  My husband's surname is Prout, he is descended from Edmund Prout who came to Nottingham (where we live) from Jersey around 1880. We would like to visit the graves of his parents: Thomas Prout who managed to die aged approx 44 of hyperthermia due to drunkeness in July 1865 (death recorded in November) and Elizabeth C Prout (photo attached) who died aged approx 69 in december 1894. They both lived in St Helier when they died.

Many thanks for any help

you beaut
The Robert you found has a mother and father called John and Ann and it seemed too much of  a coincidenec that the Robert I was looking for's first 2 children also had those names. So I have checked back my sources and there is a mistake on the 1871 census returns that I originally got my info from. On the summary page my Robert's year of birth is shown as 1834 but when I look at the actual image of the census he is 32 making him born 1839, and aged about 2 in 1841. It all fits and I have got back another generation. I am so grateful.

(Does a cartwheel!)
cheers Shelley

Thanks again for another lookup Cissellby, it's very kind of you to reply. I think he must be linked in some way so will keep with the rest of my notes.

Hello
I am trying to find my ggggrandfather Robert Waite on the 1841 Spitalfields or Bethnal Green census. He will have been around 7 or 8, born around 1834. I am hoping he'll be there with his parents so I can get another generation back as I have no idea who his parents were.

ANY leads would be massively appreciated.
thanks
Shelley

I was reading reviews of family historian on their website as am considering moving to it from FTM and I happened across their forum where someone had recommended this as a great site.  they were right!
