Morning Dave!
Oh!! How wonderful - thankyou so much  ;D I'm so excited by this development.... Dave, i'ts 4.46 a.m. as I write & I have tossed and turned and hardly slept a wink all night; my head was full of PEACE thoughts - (must have spent too much time on this yesterday)   One of my passing thoughts was "Must have a look in Nat Archives..."....though I'm not sure I would have remembered to actually do it - good job you did!

That's got to be him of the Census - and whatsmore,  it's got to be my Charles, surely! In combination. everything is spot on: the age, POB, the dates, the regiment . ;D ;D  Will definitely have to get the record now, to confirm it.

Hey Annie, isn't that great?   ;D Thanks again for the Census heads-up on that one! And for all the info, which means so much more, now that I'm pretty much convinced my "Charles woz there"- looks like he would have spent his 10 years service between Ireland and England only - all his chd with Ruth (born after 1852) were born in Sheffield.

Cheers
Happy AMBLY

Yip, I do believe that Charles is corralled  - have just sent of an estimate request for a digital copy of the entry in the WO97 document.....

Hi all!

Just an update - on Harvey W PEACE re some of the earlier parts of this meandering PEACE topic!

We got him!  And, once again - it's all down to that clever Liverpool Annie  ;D who found a random PEACE family  on a Manifest, which led  to an "unmatched 1841" census on my files - where he is listed quite clearly as "Henry"  - though he eventually had a younger brother named Henry). 

And now, thanks to Agnes1896 on this topic :
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=213679.new;topicseen#new
I have him, his parents and siblings in New York 1850, just abt 3 months after his Mother and younger children arrived in NY (Father and Harvey must have went a little ahead, though I don't have their arrival yet) .

And further more, I think this old Rootsweb topic does talk  about his sister
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/peace/2000-05/0958230542

I just go to work out where his father fit in now! But i'ts all good!
Thanks RC!
Cheers

Hello
I picked up your chat recently and thought maybe you would be interested to know that I am a Peace - my grandfather was John Peace (1847-1931) File Manufacturer of Sheffield. I can remember visiting the works as a young boy and as far as I recall the company was based in Algoma Works, Sheffield.
I have done a lot of family research and if I can help, please let me know. I intend visiting Sheffield this year to follow up my researches.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Jeff Peace

Hi there Jeff

Welcome to Rootschat  ;D
I have been away from Rootschat for quite some time - work & family, but your msg has lured me back in!

As far as I can work out, your Grandfather John must be my 2nd cousin, 4 times removed - that's if he is the one John PEACE, son of Samuel PEACE & Jane Maria HUKIN? Husband of Ann Clift HORNER?  If so I think that makes us 4th Cousins, twice removed .

I go back this way:
Referring to: Samuel PEACE (above) - his parents, John PEACE & Sarah WELLS.....
John's parents were Samuel PEACE & Ann DAWSON who are my 5x Gt Grandparents

I descend from another of Samuel PEACE & Ann DAWSON's sons:  George PEACE who married Sarah DARWIN, my 4x Gt Grandparents
One of Charles & Sarah's sons was: Charles PEACE (1822-1875) who married Ruth PEARSON (1826-1883), my 3xGt Grandparents

Of Charles & Ruth's children was:
Walter PEACE (1853-1915) who left Sheffield & eventually settled in Liverpool area, married Sarah Ann WORTHINGTON, my 2xGt Grandparents.

Walter & Ruth's daughter, Clara Florence Mabel Maud PEACE (1889-1937), was my Gt-Grandmother.

Look forward to hearing from you.  Once you have posted a couple more public messages like your one above, we can confer via Private Message!

Kind regards
AMBLY

Hi Cousin!
You've got it. My grandfather, John married Anna Clift Horner. I have all your ancestors in my family tree but do not know where the descendants are now. Am I right that you are based in New Zealand? I would be very interested to know of any Peaces in NZ. My sister emigrated to Australia so I have nephews & nieces there but I didn't know of any connection with NZ.
It's pretty late at night here so I'll get in touch again tomorrow.
With regards
Jeff P
