Hi Donna

I've tried to view your tree on Ancestry but it's private.  Are you able to change it to public?

Kind regards
Debbie  :)

Sligo / William LENEHAN (looking for birth record & parents)
« on: Wednesday 27 February 19 09:29 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all

Can anyone please help me find a birth record for my great great grandfather, William Lenehan, and his parents' names and if possible marriage record? He emigrated to New South Wales, departing Liverpool 24 April 1841 & arriving Sydney 23 Aug 1841. He was 19 years old and occupation was Joiner, religion Roman Catholic. He had 3 brothers that also emigrated to New South Wales previous to him, their names were Michael, Andrew & Edward.

William served time in prison for theft and died in an asylum in Sydney, both records list his birthplace as County Sligo, and his age on admission to prison and then the asylum indicate he was born either 1822 or 1825.

Many thanks
Debbie

Canada Lookup Request / Re: Birth request for Sylvia Elaine Chisholm, Toronto

Thanks aghadowey.  Her life in Australia is well documented, no mysteries there.  I'm hoping to find out more about her first 20 years of life, from her birth in 1880 up to 1900.

Canada Lookup Request / Birth request for Sylvia Elaine Chisholm, Toronto
« on: Saturday 30 January 16 08:34 GMT (UK)  »
Requesting help to find the birth record of my great grandmother, Sylvia Elaine Chisholm.  Her Australian marriage cert lists her birth date as 1 January 1880.  Her parents on her marriage cert are Walter Robert Chisholm and Elaine Sylvia Gibson (don't know where they were from originally or where/when married either).

Her Australian childrens' birth certificates both list her birthplace as Toronto, Canada.

Many thanks!

Hi CT
That's ok, thanks for sharing that info.  Does the marriage certificate say where his parents come from, or his father's occupation?

Hello CT

I'm also researching Francis Langford Lane.  Did you find out who his parents were and his birth date and birth place from the marriage certificate you ordered?

Thanks
Debbie

At this stage I am going with info from family members, which is a bit sketchy!  My husband's grandmother is Grace Monica Webb who was definitely born in 1921.  Her birth registration online shows her mother's maiden name as Marchant.  We have been told her father's name was Charles Webb but then also Arthur Webb!  So I'm not sure if it is one or the other, or maybe he was a Charles Arthur or an Arthur Charles.  I may indeed be wrong in thinking her father is this Arthur C Webb born 1899.  We discovered him on the 1901 census and there was a Walter Marchant listed in the same house (uncle to Arthur).  It seemed to me that this must be Grace's father as already here was a family connection with the Marchants.
