Family History Beginners Board / Re: Stevens Family History

Many thanks for all your posts guys. All very useful info especially the military.
Abraham Stevens and Esther Eliza Stevens ties in with the marriage certificate. I don't understand why his middle name is referred to as Alywin when it is documented as Alfred at his son's wedding in 1918.
I am pretty sure he served in the army in WW1 according to family anecdotes and this is verified on his wedding certificate. A Donald John Stevens died in the March quarter of 1982 in Exeter and his birth is recorded on 15 Dec 1891. This fits with him being 27 on his wedding day 19 Dec 1918. However there is a military naval record of a Donald Stevens born in Peterborough on 15 Dec 1891 who served on the HMS Impregnable. This seems to be too much of coincidence.

I'm researching my great uncle Donald John Stevens and would appreciate any help or advice.
I have a copy of his wedding certificate which states that on 19 Dec 1918 he was married to Dorothy Annie Pack in Winchester. The stated age at the time of marriage is 27 and he was a soldier cadet. The stated name of his father is Abraham Alfred Stevens (Jeweller) and a witness at the wedding is Esther E Stevens (presumably Donald's mother?)

Thanks again DS.  An unexpected find.  I have looked for him on the 1881 census but never thought to try Pice!!  Got him now.

Any joy with 1891?

Cheers

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Re: Hunt family lookup

Thanks for the info Trish.

James and Joseph were born in Coseley Staffs and they and their siblings were all christened in Sedgley except Mary.

James was married in Tipton in 1836 and Joseph was married in Dudley in 1847.

James and his son Henry were living with Joseph and his family in Dudley during the 1851 census.

I have Joseph and his family in Birmingham on the 1861 census but I can't trace any of the other Hunts.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Hunt family lookup

I would appreciate any info on the parents and siblings of:

Joseph Hunt and his brother James Hunt.  They were both born in Coseley Staffs and christened in Sedgley according to 1841/51/61 census.

James was christened on 24 April 1812
Joseph was christened on 14 April 1822

I think their parents were Richard and Elizabeth (Fellows) married 11 Dec 1810 at St Thomas Dudley but I could be wrong.

Thanks

Brian
