Gloucestershire / Re: Robert Weare

Hello, he is a relative on my wifes side of the family. The research for Bristol revovles around the Thomas, Barnes and the Weare's. I have only recently found the information on him, it shows he had a poor start to his life as he was kicked out to work at the age of 9. Apparently his parents were some of the poorest in St Pauls in Bristol. He self educated himself to speak and teach French. His talents are quite amazing considering his start in life. The information I am in need of is his children as I am stumped after 1910. Any leads would be gratefully acknowledged.

Gloucestershire / Robert Weare

I am researching a Robert Weare born 3 August 1857 at 4 Rosemary Street, St Pauls, Bristol. He was involved with the Socialist movement in Bristol and set up the Bristol Socialist Society among other organisations. He worked for the Schweppes Company from the age of 12 as a bottle washer and label sticker. He enventually moved to Liverpool for Schweppes as a foreman, where he retired and later died in Birkenhead on the 14 July 1920. I am interested in information on his children and possible descendents. The children are Lily, Robert, Alfred, Ellen, Winnie and Miriam. Any information would be gratefully recieved.

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Re: 1851 Hertfordshire (Bishop's Stortford/Hockerill)

Hello Tigger, I notice that you are researching the Riders of Hockerill/Bishops Stortford. My wifes family are descendents of this branch. I would be more than happy to share what I have.

My wifes link is with John Douglas Rider and his daughter Blanche (Gardie) Rider, who married into the Tinsley family.

In anticipation,

Clive
