Find Ancestors

lmao Zoe - all part of the service :-)

Hi Rick, could you look up 57 Adam Street and also Church Street both in Rotherhithe. I'm looking for Faldo Family. Thanks Mggie

Maggie, Can't find a Church Street listed for Rotherhithe. There's an Adam Street, but no sign of any Faldos. Rick.

Sandra, The family at 7 Sydney Terrace was called Edmunds. Manor Street does not appear in the index for Chelsea. Rick.

Gina, There's no Coldbath Street in the index. Sorry, Rick.

Hi Rick, Could you try 1 Hay Street, Haggerston(e) please. Am looking for Charles and Caroline Grace and their daughter Sarah. VMT Michaela

Rick, Is Lambeth included on the 1841? If so, could you please look up Bolwell Street, Lambeth? Looking for the BYERS family. Preferrably George BYERS aged 5ish. Mother was Ann BYERS, possibly LEVITT at the time. They were living here in 1851, so I'm hoping that they don't like to move about a lot! Thanks! Chloe

Rick Could you possibly check whether the St Giles area/St Martins in the Field is clear on the 1841 census? (Possibly Holborn) And could you also advise whether searching an area (don't have an address) is going to be a long hard slog? I am tempted to splash out on the cd, but won't if it'll take me ages to just find a blur!! Thanks v much Lucette

Michaela, Sorry, but no sign of your Graces in Hay Street. Rick.

Chloe, Yes is does cover Lambeth, but I can't find Byers or Levitt in Bolwell Street. Don't think anyone stayed still for long in those days. Rick.

Thanks for looking Rick..... I wish my ancestors were rich and stayed in one place!!! LOL Chloe

Lucette, There are over 40 CDs with at very least a couple of 100 pages on each. Each page holds about 50 names. Some roads (let alone areas) are split over several CDs, so yes it's a slog !! But I guess if you really put your mind to it and did a couple of hours here and there you would get through it in the end. The quality varies throughout - it's not confined to areas. Sometimes you can't read it because it's too faint, sometimes because there are huge black marks over the page. Some pages are water-damaged, others fire-damaged and others just missing. Rick.

Irene, Sorry, no Bishry's in Selby Street. Rick.

Thanks for looking Rick, Michaela

Rick, Could you please check 16, Pitt Street, St. George's Road, possibly in Southwark. Given like this on a marriage certificate. Many thanks, Tricia

Hi Rick, Thank you so much for your very kind offer. Could you look to see who was at 33 Upper Belgrave Place, Pimlico for me - I am hoping to find some Parfreys there. Many thanks. Jackie

Hi, Rick, Are you still there?? Tricia

Yes Tricia I'm here. What names a re you looking for ? It's rare for the houses to be numbered. Rick.

Jackie, Eliza Parfrey,37,y James Keating,30,reporter,I Esther Boyt,13,female servant,y Rick.

Hi Rick, Thank you so much for having a look for me - it's much appreciated and very helpful. Jackie
