Hi Sue

Is there any chance you could do a look up on the name Parker for me?

The name i'm interested is William Henry or Henry William Parker born c1854.  He lived in London, but not sure where.. possibly Fulham/Chiswick..

He is listed on my ggrandmothers wedding cert as being a lighterman and I'm not sure where to go from here??

Thanks v. much.

I need a look-up for a John Clarkson, a lighterman in London. He would have been apprenticed in the 1750's.

If his apprenticeship is found, do you know where I might look for further informtion?

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the reply, but what is the la? Is it the LMA? And if so, where do I look on their site? I can't find anything relevant to watermen/lightermen there.

Thanks.
