Nottinghamshire / Re: Sumners of Nottingham

Thanks to you both for your help.
This is the kind of information I am unaware of!
I have ordered his death cert yes. The BMD states he died in 1875 in Bradford aged 64. Therefore if this is correct (and does this definitely have to be right or can there be discrepancies) he was born in 1810/1811. The census's never say where in Nottingham he was born. They just say Nottingham!
So do I need to look through Cromwell's christenings at Nottingham Library or is there another way to check them out?
Thanks again Chris
PS why is there a gap in the IGI? And is that just for Nottingham or country wide?

Hi Carol,
Thanks very much for that. If that age is correct then he can not be the John Sumners (summers) christened in 1807 in newark, it would be to early. But then no other possibilities appear on the IGI so not sure what to do next!!
Thanks for your time

Nottinghamshire / Sumners of Nottingham
« on: Tuesday 13 April 10 22:01 BST (UK) »
Hi all
I am tracing a Sumners line at present that has taken me to Bradford then back to Nottingham. the last 100% info I have is John Sumners marries Mary Wright 26th Nov 1832 in Cromwell Nottingham.
Can any one help with any information about Sumners from Nottingham in the late 1700/early 1800s.
I think Johns parents are William and Martha Sumners but the date of 1807 when John is born (IGI) does not tie in with census information!
Not sure where to go next for more information.
Thanks

World War One / Edward Rothwell WW1
« on: Sunday 03 January 10 17:34 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
After my help recently which you all gave I decided to rejoin ancestry and have found out loads of new information about my great grandad and wifes great grandad who both now have service records online which they didnt previously!! Brilliant!!
I do have various questions about their records but will post them at a later date.
What I am now looking at is my wifes other great grandand. He was Edward Rothwell born in 1899 in ramsbottom lancashire. I have all his census information about where he lived, jobs etc but I have a puzzleing thing on his sons birth certificate.
In 1918 on John Monks Rothwells birth certificate his rank/profrssion is stated as private in the 11th batt:suffolk regiment(cashier at a bleach works)
I have looked on ancestry and can only find one edward rothwell in the suffolk regiment No:37246.
My question is that all the information I have on him is in the ramsbottom/Bury area so how would he end up in the Suffolk Regiment? would it be his choice?
Also can I find any other information out about his service and war exploits.
Finally it is also thought that John Monks Rothwell was an officer in ww2 in the royal artillery. Can I find any information out about him ie his regiment number etc or would i just have to send off for his service record and pay the 30.00 with what little sketchy information we have and would this be worth it?
Thanks for having a look for me.

Occupation Interests / Conservative Agent
« on: Monday 16 March 09 18:27 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
I have some one who is a conservative agent in the 1901 census and a political agent in the 1911 census.
Can any one tell me what this is please? Is it an MP?
Also where would I go to find further information about him?
His name was John Monks B: abt 1867 in Shuttleworth Lancashire. In the 1911 census he is living in Shuttleworth also.
Thank you.
