Hi Sophie

I am trying to trace any desendants of my grandfathers brother Edward Gilbert Hassall (known as Gilbert)

Leslie charles was my grandfather. William frederick (1911) and Edward Gilbert (1908) were his brothers.

There father was called Charles or Charlie Hassall

There mothers maiden name was Mary Nevett.

The family moved from Wem in Shropshire to Crewe Cheshire for Work. Edward was born in Wem the other two in Crewe

Edward lost touch with the family and moved to London. I dont know where in London, as for when, my aunties only have a vague recolection of him and there aged between 60 and 55 so it could be around 45-50years ago.

I dont know any details of any spouse.

I would love to find out if he had any children

Hope you can help.

Hi Sophie.

If possible could you do two lookups for me.

1) Birth for Ellen Webster --- 1929 Aldershot (Fareham) Hampshire.

2) Marriage of Albert Charles Webster -- need to find out spouses surname first name is Ellen. Ellen born in 1900 their children were born in the 1920/30s
Have looked on freeBMD on Ancestry with no luck.

On marriage certificate of Ellen (b1929) Albert is down as deceased, if you have time could you look up his death as well. Marriage took place in 1950.

Thank you Margaret

Dear Sophie

I would be very grateful if you could look at the 1891 and 1901 censuses for a FREDERICK PYKE.

He was born in 1869. I have his place of birth on my tree as Andover, Hants although the 1881 census gives his place of birth as London, Middlesex.

In 1881 he is in Bolton, Lancashire with his stepfather William Kingston. He is listed as Frederick Pyke (Kingston).

The reference is RG11 3841/97 p30.

Hope this is not too vague.

Many thanks

Maria

I appreciate your effort Thank You, but I dont think it is the right William Harris, I know it is like looking for Smith with this name there is so many

on marriage cert - William Harris - Helen Jane Connel 9 September 1888
Father - William Harris (deseased)
Profession signal man

THANK YOU FOR TRYING
