Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: JONES, James & Elizabeth, Streatham, Surrey
« on: Sunday 06 September 09 04:07 BST (UK)  »
I am writing to you through the Roots Chat line.  I have wrtitten to you directly
to your personal e-mail address and I have not received a reply.  If you do not
wish to persue the connection that's OK but one of the advice pages suggests
that we should persevere and write again just in case the first message has
gone astray.  So this is what I am doing.

I believe that I have discovered Albert Nutting's  sister through the later censuses,
have you found this too? Fanny is the one I mean.

I am also interested in Mary Monington.  I have been thinking about having a DNA
test done sometime and at present she is the farthest back on my female line that
I have.

I hope you and your sister Jennifer are having a fun time with your research and
that you are getting great results.  Regards, Anne

I saw your message about Albert Nutting Jones.  He is my 2xgreat grandfather
through his oldest daughter Mary Jane Jones.  Thankgoodness for his
distinctive middle name!  If you are descended from his oldest son who
travelled to the US in the 1880s there are two researchers, one on the east
coast and one on the west who have done a lot of work.

If only James had lived until the 1851 census it would have made it so much
easier to track him.  When I was new to this I did not bother to try for Jane
Jones since I thought that would be impossible to trace.

Jane Jones married Robert Chard on 25 December 1870 and you can trace her
through the UK census from her birth in 1851 to the 1901 census. She died in 1908.

Her daughter, Rosina Louise, was my grandmother.  Her daughter, Rosina
Elizabeth Aslen, was my mother.

I see you posted in January and I only found it today.  I hope you have had
other responses.  I would really like to hear what you have been able to
discover and I have more information to share with you.

Best wishes  and Happy Hunting,

Anne
