I've now traced him through 1891 and 1901 too. A brick wall down I never even knew I had.

Just to deviate off topic for a mo, we had an excellent lecture about the Christchurch Workhouse by members of our Archaeological Society who have done all sorts of research into it's history.
Linky removed due to dodginess  - they have a great  website with loads of info which can be found by googling "Christchurch workhouse."

Just found all four Grandparents on the first search - no big surprises but nice to see my Gdad George Pettigrove in print as Pettigrove and not Frost. Also found my GGGDad Thomas Lee again- after no trace in 1901. Found one error with an age and that's on my first night. Will we be sharing
"leftovers" on the site?

Hello. I did try to contact you before but am new to this. My Grand Mother (Paternal) was Druscilla Pettigrove daughter of Richard Pettigrove and sister of Patience, Mariah (Riah) etc. I think we may be related and wondered if you had more information that we have in common. I keep getting stuck, Have so far found that Mariah married Jacob Rossiter (Coco). Am I on the right lines? Thanks for any help.

Hi Vonni

My family also lived on both banks of the Tees so I too am frustrated and green with envy for all the happy brick wall breakers.  And I cannot resist the temptation to fritter away my beautiful credits on the OH's relatives down South.

Grrrrrr

Hi Gobbo

My other half is from East Riding of Yorks - so no luck there for me  - and none of them seem to have been on trips away either - and just when you need them to skip town as well
