Armed Forces / Re: Forces births in The Curragh 1890's

Thank you so much for that, I was really becoming frustrated because I have the rest of the family all tied down, just couldn't find these two births.

Incidentally, Frank and Ralph died within 9 days of each other. Ralph near Ypres and Frank when he fell from an aircraft over Perham Down in Wiltshire.

Thanks again, very much appreciated.

Armed Forces / Forces births in The Curragh 1890's
« on: Monday 27 January 25 15:28 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I have searched in all the common places including GRO Forces Births and cannot trace the births of two ancestors in The Curragh 1895 and 1897

Father: JOHN THOMAS RICHARDSON East Yorkshire Regiment
Mother: Ellen Richardson (nee Mitchell)
Child 1: FRANK ARNOLD RICHARDSON Born Nov 1895
Child 2: RALPH CYRIL RICHARDSON Born CIRCA 1897

Both boys became East Yorkshire Regiment and both died in WW1

I would appreciate any guidance in respect of finding their births

Many thanks
Ian

Lancashire / Lancashire Nicknames
« on: Tuesday 29 November 22 13:28 GMT (UK)  »
Whilst researching my Lancashire heritage circa late 1800's particularly around the Farnworth / Kearsley / Ringley area I have come across a nickname used to describe a family member, 'Owd Peff'. The 'Owd' I get but 'Peff' is something I am familiar with. His name was David if that helps? Has anyone come across this before and could shed any light?

Lincolnshire / Re: Danes Passage? Lincoln

Hi,
Whilst researching my Grandfather William Clayton who was killed in action in Loos France in 1915 and dealing with his father Henry Clayton 1846 to 1892 I came across this post which is now several years old but we share a Great Great Grandfather. I have just registered with Roots Chat today in order to be able to message you but not really sure whether it will work. Ian Berry son of Ronald Berry (deceased) whose mother was Ethel May Clayton daughter of William Clayton of Lincoln. Thanks
