Find Ancestors

Hello Rick - can you try this one for me please No 10 Regent Street Poplar - there was a John Pressman there in 1831. There were 6 others in the household too - Ca you see if he is still there - if not him who is ? Thanks Sue.

Sorry Rick - I now seem to have two requests - I could have sworn I saw a post from you saying you could'nt do the first one !! Am I having another senior moment ! Sue

LOL Sue !! Senior moment I'm afraid. Have got your first one for you. At the same address, but marked down as a separate household were: Hannah Melvin,60,y Thomas Argent,46,lighterman,y Sarah Redknap,8,y And that's all it says I'm afraid. Rick.

Sue, No Pressmans in Regent Street, but the houses are not numbered so there is no way of knowing which number 10 is. Rick.

RICK ! - I've said it before and I will say it again YOU ARE AN ANGEL ! - you have just solved my Hannah mystery. I could not read her surname on the 1851, been trying every variation I could think of...Thankyou Sue x

Sue, There are plenty of people who might disagree with you there !!!! But I'm glad you found what you were looking for. Rick :-)

Rick Can you take a look at a road called Upper Marsh in Westmintser for me please. Looking for a family called HODSON: father is Henry (born Ireland??) mother Henrietta baby called Henrietta (born on 26 March 1841) Hoping that they're still there what with the poor mother just out of labour and all. Trying to find any other children. Cheers Zoe

Hi Rick Thank you very much for your kind offer. Could you please look up the address of 16 Devonshire Place, Stepney, St Peters, Tower Hamlets. In 1851 the family there were Thomas Bouchard aged 57 proprietor of houses born Bethnal Green Sarah 53 Domestic born Holborn Anne 37 unmarried domestic servant born Bethnal Green Mary 44 widow sister in law Proprietor of houses born Bethnal Green. I would be very interested in any of this family were at this address in 1841. Thank you in advance. Irene in NZ

Thanks for looking anyway Rick. Is these any type of surname index to Chelsea 1841, do you know? Chloe

Irene, Sorry but there's no such street listed in the 1841 index for Stepney. Rick.

Frances, There's no Cornwall Street listed for Fulham. Sorry, Rick.

Chloe, I don't know of any surname index for London 1841. RIck.

Tilda, There's a Market Street listed for Marylebon, but no sign of your Reynards. Praed Street is not listed so I assume its in Paddington. Rick.

Rick quite frankly I could kiss you :o) Zoe

Hi Rick Thanks for the lookup. Irene
