[Chris Sell]

hi all
i've been on this all day trying to get a lead on john howlett in the 1881 or 1871 census, and i have nothing, think i've searched too much now and scrabbled my brain....
if anyone could give me a lead that would be great

John Howlett b:Bunwell c1951
married georgiana hardiman 1883
son Ernest howlett b1889 wood dalling
(also sons william c1885 & Alfred c1893)

thanks

Hi Tracy ,
There is no lead. There are too many possibilities.
Unfortunately to make sure we are following the right family line we all have to purchase certs.
I am in Australia and have had to do this for my English ancestry.

You need;
Ernests Birth Cert ( to confirm his parents names)
Then their Marriage Cert ( to find their Fathers names, occp etc)

Birth regs;
HOWLETT, Ernest, March 1889, Aylsham, 4b 79
There are also 2 others;
Ernest Robert
Ernest William
You can check this on Freebmd.

Once you have the cert come back with info and we will help again.
If you order the cert and specify Fathers name is John if the one you have purchased is wrong you will get a part refund.
As you have no second name for him I think the Aylsham one is a good bet.

My Grandfather was Alfred Howlett, Ernests brother.  I have a bit of information re John in that Georgana (known as Anna or Annie) died in 1922, he then married his house keeper Mrs Sadler.  John went to live at my grandfathers at 9 Gresham Road Norwich up until his death.  Kiffer

Hi, i am researching the Howlett family in Norfolk but am at a complete standstill, can anybody help?
I started with My great grandad Ernest Howlett b 1889 norfolk
(based on info from my dad) i purchased his marriage certifcate
...married Mabel May Fiddy 1915 Norwich Norfolk (aged 26)
Now the marriage certificate says the father is John Howlett,
       I have no age or birth year for him, but i found on 1901 census that he is married to Georgiana...
When it going back to the 1891 census i found the correct family as Ernest was 2 then... (but i don't have the details of this census)
       I cannot pinpoint the correct John Howlett in 1881 .. there are quite a few by this name in Norfolk.
Also there are a couple of listing for a John married to Georgiana (Georgeanna) 
all of similiar age....

I hope this makes sense
I hope someone can help

thanks
Tracy

Ernests brother Alfred was my Grandfather, I am currently researching family history, I have quite a bit of family history including a book written by my Mother.  I live close to Bunwell and Carlton Rode, have visited the church yards, John was a Methodist lay preacher I am in contact with the Methodist historian and also the Bunwell history society, who have also written a book, it would be good to contact as we are obviously related somewhere along the line and are researching the same family  -  thanks Kiffer
