Hi Dawn

Many thanks for the FH group details. 

I'm in Kent, UK, I'll check to see if I can add this going forward.

Thanks again for your help, really appreciated.

Hi Ciderdrinker
Many thanks for the info regarding William, please can you direct me to the site you used for the school info.  I have tried to trace Regal Street but nothing springs out, I can find the school in Frankham Street though.  It seems so strange that I can find no birth registered for William.  Was it fairly common for parents not to register their children then?

Hope to hear
Lex

Hi Ambly.

On the 1911 census the following children are listed
James Arthur   aged 12
Alice Elizabeth  aged 7
Constance Phyllis  aged 5
Gladys Caroline  aged 3

It states number of children born - 6
number living - 4

Alfred Hoyden died in 1904 aged 2.  I was assuming that the other death was for William, but now there is Edward Ernest born 1909 sadly died 1910.  I am curious to know how this is James and Alice's son as I can find no tie to them - please can you tell me?

Thank you so much for the help.

Kind regards
Lex

London and Middlesex / Help finding William Allam?

Would some kind person be able to take a look for William Allam - appears on census 1901 as 5 years old living with James Arthur and Alice Elizabeth Allam in Charlton London - by 1911 census he is no longer there, details from the census note that 2 children died.  I can find the death of his younger brother Alfred Hoyden but no mention of William.  In fact, I don't seem to be able to find his birth either, although he could be under his mothers maiden name of Dunkin as they were not married until 1897.  I have looked under all the possible names and places but finding nothing.  Any suggestions most welcome.
Thanks all
Lex ;)

Have been searching for my Australian connection for years and finally found it through DNA.  So now I am searching for any info regarding descendants of George Henry Thomas JONES, married to Ann Jones in Brisbane 1888, living in Nambour/Mooloolah/Beerwah/Caloundra.  Any help very welcome.

Hi Robert

I'm sure there must be records somewhere with the information I am seeking, I'm gradually chipping away, I'm sure I will eventually get there.
All the best with your searching
Kind regards
Lex

Sorry Robert, chatting away, I've just seen the time there - I'm keeping you from you beauty sleep.
Take care
