Thomas was a shoemaker, yes. I have copies of that Robert's service records. My father (whose father was Alexander - the youngest son of Thomas - known as Al Tsar Ray, was named for his Uncle...

Yes, but WHICH Ray is your wife descended from?? :)

Thank you so much!!!!! I was missing this! :) ~Debbie

William and Maria were Thomas' great-uncle and great-aunt (according to the 1851 census, which lists Thomas as William's nephew). Which means either Ellen was their niece and she was unmarried, or...

Oh, thank you!! Moses is likely the father of the children I've found! I have John and Margaret's entire line, and am in touch with some of their descendants, if you need any info...

In 1871, the residents of 2, Liverpool Street, St. Mary's, Southampton, Hampshire were:
James H. Wilson and his wife Jane C. Wilson;
Frederick Lashmer (or possibly Lashman), his wife Eliza, and...

It's possible her parents never came to England. You might want to research Laois County (Queens county), Ireland genealogy links to try to find either her birth record, or some record of her father...

Thanks so much! I'll put it in the next batch to send for and check it out!

If this is them, I found the marriage of John Knight and Maria Phillips in Poole, Dorset on 31 Oct 1829, as well as the baptisms of the two daughters, Maria, and Martha also in Poole. John's middle...

Not sure if this will be any help, but here goes:

1881 census: you have, Edward John age 36 born Lea Bridge, Essex, occ: turner E&M, wife Caroline born Bristol, Glos.
1871 census: you have,...

Who did she marry? There are a couple of marriages listed for a Sarah Kelly that year in Manchester - if you send for the certificate, it should have her father's name and occupation listed. Then...

Nope - no luck there. Anyone have access to Castlewellan records?

The 1901 census shows Sarah with children Neil and Catherine. Neil died without known issue, and Catherine may have been the C. Barr who signed her mother's death certificate. Sarah is listed as a...

Thanks, Mutley, I'll have a look!

Looking for information on a Stewart (Steward, Stuart, Steuart) McComb (McCombe) born around 1804 possibly in Castlewellan, County Down. There may also be an Edward (middle name? brother? father?)...

Wasn't it James, and not his father Neil, who was married to Sarah Boyd?

And it was his SON - Cameron Barr, born 4 Dec 1920 - who died in April 1987 in Philadelphia, NOT the Cameron who was married to Ann Sutherland!

I also found Cameron's draft registration card for WWII. Birth was 25 June 1884 in Greenock, Scotland. He was then living at 1346 E. Steinber Street, Philadelphia, Pa. Ann must have died, as he is...

Maud, I found some further information on Cameron Barr who emigrated to the US from Scotland... His petition for US citizenship! It was filed in Pennsylvania, and is #73136, and dated 4 November...

You definitely need Robert's marriage certificate! If his father is Thomas, then I have the wrong Robert in the 1841 census. If his father is William, then it's likely William and Thomas are...

Ruth, was Robert's father on the marriage listed as William, a builder, then?

Just want to be sure I'm not sending you down the wrong path!

So Elizabeth's last name was also Cheshire? Or did she assume it as a last name after the birth of Richard (you refer to her as a spinster)? I have a few in my own tree who have the same last name...

First, I found them in the 1851 census. Emma's mother Esther is living with them in Bristol. Then I looked in the 1841 census. I found Esther and her daughter Emma, aged 15, in Bristol. Emma,...

Jim, something you might consider... Some of those who landed in Virginia and Maryland in the 1700's were in fact transported from England as convicts. Not saying your lot was, but you might want...

Jim, I found a marriage for an Elizabeth Cheshire to John Sherelock on 30 Nov 1737 in Maryland - might she also be related? Perhaps a sister or cousin? The info is from the database: Maryland...
