Family History Beginners Board / Re: Stuck - gg grandad missing after 1912
« on: Monday 21 June 10 13:39 BST (UK)  »
I am back!!! Not got much further. I got all the birth certificates I could get hold of. Also discovered that my grandfather (his son) was not living with his father at the time of the census in 1911. However, the problem with this is that we were led to beleive this didnt happen until after the great grandfather had disappeared. So this adds extra mystery.  I think we should try and locate all of our grandads brothers and sisters desendants and write to them, see if they know any more rumour that we could piece together.

Dawn, I no longer have your email address following a disastrous computer update by my husband!!!

THank you. I think the bankruptcy is definately the son as my family were still around that area in 1930 and so it wouldn't make sense if he was still around. But, the executor of DanielFrusher (yes it is his father) may be the write one. I will look into getting information about the will which might give me a bit more of a clue.

I use the gazette at work but had not really thought of using it for this!

Family History Beginners Board / Stuck - gg grandad missing after 1912
« on: Tuesday 06 November 07 19:50 GMT (UK)  »
My great great grandad was Philip Daniel Frusher, born in Whitechapel in 1876. He went on to marry Beatrice Hutchinson and had 9 children. THe last was William born in 1912 in Pancras.

Thats when the trail stops. He disappeared. We know he went away and left his wife and children. Rumour has it that it was to do with a scandal but its all rumours. I have heard that he went to Australia and also heard that he ran off with a waitress from Kings Cross. I have no idea whether they are true.

I would love to know what happened to him. I have tried searching for a death here and in Australia and not managed to find anything.

I am about to order William's birth certificate to see if it gives me any further clues.

Has anyone else got any ideas of where I can go next?

Thanks for that. Why is this so addictive. Interesting that the house they lived at, number 1, isn't listed, but 2 and 3 are. I may have to go and investigate the original records at some point to satisfy my curiosity!

Family History Beginners Board / Street index for census
« on: Friday 02 November 07 20:00 GMT (UK)  »
I am aware that you can search a census by street, but I haven't come across this yet. I have a birth certificate in 1876 that has a full address of West Street in Spitalfields. For 1871 and 1881 census they lived elsewhere but I would like to find out more about the road they lived at in 1876. I thought if I looked up the street index in say 1881 it would give me more info about the road.

All the online searches I can find are just by name.

Can anyone shed any more light on this for me?

Thanks
