Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: Richard Roffey of Surrey

Richard born 1786 in Godstone is not on any of the Roffey trees I have (I have my own and sight of two passed to me by other Roffey researchers.  However he has to fit in somewhere.

Do you have any other information about him that might help to track him down?  I presume you don't have his baptism?

No baptism, although other Ancestry trees suggest August 1875. Census records from 1851 give Godstone as his place of birth.

He married Hannah Elllis in Godstone on April 7th 1807, and moved to London by 1812. He was a bricklayer.

Dorset Lookup Requests / Re: Retreat Place, Parkstone.

Hi Jo.

The 1891 ref is RG12/1639 page 12.  The family listed at No 10 were my rellies.  Harry, head, was my gt. grandfather and his son Mark my grandfather.
I was curious as to where they lived. The family originated in Cranborne. When Harry and Tamar married they moved to Constitution Hill and then to Retreat Place. In the 1898/9s the family moved to Camberley in Surrey this being a developing town. Both Harry and Mark had business as builders employing about twenty men.
I was curious as to where they were living, but if the place no longer exists
is not worth visiting.
Thanks for your help. Dud.


Hi, seem we are cousins of some kind as Harry/Tamar are my my great great grandparents via their daughter Clara, who died when I was two.

I would be very interested in any information you have on them - I only have what I've managed to track down from census records online.

BTW, 10 Retreat TERRACE Parkstone is where I beive my grandfather was born, perhaps Clara inherited it?
