Yes, all of this is correct. I currently the names of three 'spouses': Annie Lilian Augusta Thomas, Ruth Davies, and Lucy Cooke. I need to get the names of the others from Pyramidical. These three...

Thanks for this. I have also been searching Canadian records. By the time Mahmoud Shafik took himself off to Canada he had assumed the name Richard Applejohn. His 'wife' Lucy followed in 1928...

Hi Arthur

Yes, we have seen this and it is a known family member who is also searching fr Patricia!

Unfortunately, there is at least one birth for a Patricia Johnson in the first quarter of 1923 so we certainly can't make any assumptions about the above death record for Patricia Johnson even though...

I have worked on this a bit with Pyramidical and the problem is we have no idea whether Patricia is living, dead, adopted, emigrated or anything else. Because of her age there is a vague possibility...

Thanks Peter!

Thanks Keith! It looks as though it may be worth doing then.

Would appreciate some advice please!

My father served in the Queen's Royal Regiment (West Surrey) during WWII. I understand he trained initially in Maidstone, then as a Bren Gun Carrier Driver at...

Would appreciate some advice please! Have just purchased a one month subscription for this site, hoping to find out the reason that an individual was awarded the DFC. Unfortunately, all it tells me...

Yes, most of the Aclands were Master Mariners or Seaman of various kinds. The exception was my great, great grandfather who was a carpenter.

Oh, this is brilliant! Thank you so much! I have got the marriage certificate of Emily and Albert already and had noted the witnesses name - but hadn't made the connection!

Would be very grateful for any thoughts about a birth certificate which I have, and which I find somewhat mystifying.

It is a return for a birth at sea.

Ah well, each to their own. Overall I prefer Ancestry and, as I can't afford subs for both Ancestry and FMP, I have to make do. At the end of the day, they both exist primarily to make money. I am...

Many thanks Paul. The images on Ancestry also provide most of that. The most important item for me is the sheet completed by the householder, which Ancestry has... albeit with the 'sensitive'...

Hmmmm... thanks!

Are they? I don't have a sub for FMP, but the 1911 images are still censored on Ancestry. :-(

Hi... apologies if this question has been asked before! It's been quite a while since I last logged on to the forum!

As the 1911 census is now almost 102 years old should we not now be able to...

Jason, thank you so much! It's amazing to know that you actually lived in 'our' house!! Our Walter Hungerford lived there in 1913, so way before you, and he probably wasn't there for very long. ...

Amazing to see how this thread keeps coming to the top of the pile! ;-)

Thanks so much everyone, but I think we've got Walter and Cold Blow sorted now! Really appreciated all the help though.

Ah, thanks Adele, that's helpful - although a bit disappointing! As the directory was about Oxfordshire, I was rather hoping that it was produced by one of my Oxfordshire Duttons rather than one of...

Hi

Would be very interested to hear from anyone researching the name of DUTTON in Cheshire who discovers that one of them has migrated to Oxfordshire.

I have a long line of Duttons in...

Hi

Would be very interested to hear from anyone researching the name of DUTTON in Oxfordshire who discovers that one of them has got roots from Cheshire.

Thanks!

I suspect this is probably a question for Geoffers! Please can anyone tell me more about:


Dutton, Allen & Co.'s Dir. Oxon. (1863)

I'm interested to know who the Dutton of Dutton & Allen was!...

Many thanks for looking Marie!

We've just returned from the Wiltshire archives with several very exciting (to us!) very old wills and inventories from the 1600's and 1700s. They are written in English and the copies are excellent...
