Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: 4% Gujarati DNA
« on: Tuesday 30 December 25 12:02 GMT (UK)  »
Many thanks for your replies.  I have contacted my friend, all her ancestors in the 1800s (1820 onwards) all appear to have been industrial labourers apart from one who became a professional footballer in 1898,  they hailed from Lancashire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.  There doesn't appear to be anyone with a military or romany background.

Once again thank you
Simon

I have a friend whose father has 4% Gujarati DNA, how far are we going back in time, she has traced the main branches of her tree to approx 1820s and no one appears to have indian roots

Thank you

Canada has no BMD index as you do in the UK. Canada also has very strict privacy laws which can make it difficult to trace unless we can find newspaper reports , obituaries etc.,

Thank you Sandra, I didn't realise Canada doesn't have a BMD index

Kind regards

I think the reason the two brothers were mentioned in Alan's obituary was that they were still alive. Christopher dying in 1968 and Wilfred in 1969

I would like to thank everyone for their help.  I'm now wondering why there appears to be no death record for Thomas Septimus, why there was no mention of him in his brothers obituary, but his brothers in England were mentioned

Thank you once again

Simon

P.S.  Anymore idea's would be greatly appreciated

Canada Lookup Request / Death of Former Soccer Player Thomas Septimus Dickinson
« on: Tuesday 23 September 25 00:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi, the historian of my local soccer/footbball club has asked if I can find the death of a former player.  His name was Thomas Septimus Dickinson (he used his middle name), born 1890 in Lancashire, England.  Apparently he married in Ontario 11 Nov 1919.  As we can't find a death in the UK, we think he might of died in Canada, If anyone can help, it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you, Simon

I have recieved a digital copy of the death cert.

Jeffrey was hit by a passenger engine at Hawes Junction on 18 Mar 1915.  The death was registered by the Coroner at Skipton
