Australia Lookups completed / Re: HERMAN VON BECKERATH-Passenger list
« on: Tuesday 27 June 06 05:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi There

I have a copy of the passenger list for the Hermann von Beckerath and I am trying to put together the stories of what happened to these immigrants to South Australia. All contributions gratefully received.

The Stengerts were listed as: STENGERT    Gottlieb (30), Caroline (23), Pauline (3), Ottilie (2), from Winsen.

cheers
John Volkman

I have found the same Andrew Baxter in the 1851 census. He was then 72 and a pauper at the Union Workhouse, Isle of Thanet. His birthplace is given as Rinaarding, Scotland so I have got a solid clue to follow up now.

Hello Carol

This is very helpful. The details for Jane seem to match. I have noted from some Rootsweb posts of a few years ago that there is a link between the Freemen and Baxter families.

I have found John in the 1851 and later census returns and noted that he married Sarah Fuller.

To confirm that this is the right Andrew, I'll have to check the parish records.

many thanks

Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Kent 1841 Look-up BAXTER
« on: Thursday 09 February 06 01:59 GMT (UK)  »
Could someone please do a look-up of the 1841 Kent census for me? I am looking for Jane Baxter, born about 1815 whose father was Andrew Baxter, gardener. The location is either Ramsgate or Minster in Thanet. The IGI has a possible family: parents Andrew and Mary Baxter with children Mary, Edward, Jane and John all christened on 8/Oct/1815 at Minster on Thanet.

Thanks

Hello Angie

I have an Esther Pritchard in my family tree, but what little I know has only come from census returns and IGI. Esther was born about 1799 in Colva and died May 28, 1880. She married John Price on Oct 5, 1820 and they lived on Gwernilla farm, Colva. She may have had a brother William Pritchard born about 1803 in Colva (visitor on census return).

Any links to your Pritchards?

Montgomeryshire Lookup Requests / Re: Research RALPH and BRUMWELL name Llandyssil, Montgomeryshire

Hello Gwendoline

I have a David Ralph in my family tree. He was born about 1830 in Churchstoke and married an Ann who I had guessed may be Ann Stephens. One of David and Ann's 7 children was Jane who was the second wife of Richard Price. I have only started researching this line since my connection is from my wife to Richard's first wife Annie Pryce. I have put together information from the census returns (1851-1901) about David and Ann which I can e-mail.
I would love to exchange information.



all the best
John

Hello Carol

The fact that no Pattersons were still living in Woodnesborough in 1851 is useful information. I have learned that Theophilus and Ann Patteson died in the 1840s and their son James had moved to Poplar by 1849. However, they had another son William who I had thought was still living in the area. It may be that he is the "William Pattison" who is buried in Woodnesborough (1858), but was living in Upper Walmer.  There is another Theophilus Patterson (aged 20) living with Ann in 1841, but he seems to have vanished from the records.

all the best and thanks
John
