Hi Rick, Never seen this one before. If you have time, would be grateful for info on: Samuel Mortimer, b. 1802 - Samuel Mortimer, b. 1812 (1851 census) and Samuel Mortimer, m. 1824 - spouse Wakely. Seems too good to be true. Cheers, David in Hants

Sorry Christina - no Jane Ashton. Rick.

Sorry Teresa - no Boakes at all. Rick.

Hi Rick Could you please look up Jane Ashton age app 4yrs born Portishead Somerset, I am particularly interested in the family Thanks

Hi Rick; Thanks for checking for Joseph Walker. More hunting to do!! Can I ask you to also check for any Boakes born in Rainham or Aylesford Kent. We know they are all connected just have to figure out how. Names that I know are Abraham, Thomas, William, Richard, Eliza, Edwin, Sarah, John. Anything at all would be a help. I have various members on the 1881 and 1871, nothing earlier.

Hi Teresa, Are there ever a lot of Joseph Walkers around !! Sorry to say that I can't find one that fits your profile. Rick.

Hi Rick; Can I ask you to check for Joseph Benjamin Walker born abt 1836 in Cheltenham, Glos. Fathers name also Joseph. I have nothing at all on him for earlier than 1871 when he was in Battersea, London. His father was a tanner according to Joseph Benjamin's wedding cert. He was married in Devon. Joseph junior was a traveller and seem to be hard to trace for that reason. I am trying to find anything at all on him including his mothers name or where he was on the 1851 and 1861 census.

Sorry Diane, Can't find your Rogers/Rodgers. Rick.

Many thanks Rick for you look up don't think thats my Mary as yet have no connections with London.Once again many thaks for your help. Regards Maureen
