The Gell Family

[liverpool annie]

Hi Scott !

I just wanted to say ..... you're a very lucky person ...... ( wish I had  research in Durham !!  ) it's lovely to see ... when somebody goes out of their way to help !! hpool didn't get all that information on line ... sometimes you have to physically go to the records office and look up the information .... it can be very time consuming going through all those books .... though in the case of Rootschatters - ( the "girls" with their census ! ) we get much pleasure knocking somebody's socks off with the information we find .... nearly as much as if it were our own !!

Enjoy your family !

Don't I know it!!
The information has been flowing fast and furious. At times I have barely been able to keep up with it.
I would like to thank hpool and the Rootchatters and anyone else who took the time to help me out. This has
inspired loads of of my relatives to get involved and I've found a couple of long lost family as well!
Rootchatters...I like that.
Thank you all again!
Scott

Would one of the Rootchatter's be so kind as to check the 1841 Census for a
Edward and Dorothy Hill both I believe from Thornton Watlass, Yorks and both in their 60's at
about that time.

Thank you very much!
I wonder if Wilson Hill had died very young and they had another try.

Hello again.
Could someone please check to see what William and Mary Schofield were up to in 1851, 1861 and 1871?
I would also like to find out what Ann Gell, Robert's wife was doing in 1891 and 1901. In 1881 she is down as a 48 year old charwoman, living with my great grandmother (aged 10) in Holme.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Scott

You can find out quite a lot about the family by careful use of the advanced search features. http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,355239.0.html

In any event, the 1911 is pay-per-view for everyone - it is not available on any of the subscription sites. So anyone doing a look-up for you would have to pay for it!
