Libra, Have found the marriage for a Lilian J Mckee to a Thomas J Willey in the oct-nov-dec qtr of 1915 in Sheffield. No luck on the 1901 census there doesn't seem to be a Lilian J Mckee at all. Sorry All the best

Hi Marion, Afraid I couldn't find a marriage record that matched the ages of John and Frances as the only one I found was in 1841 and was between a John Jones and a Francis Phillips. Sorry So I looked for census records trying to see if they were listed as husband and wife on them. No luck I couldn't find them on the 1871 and then in 1881 John is deceased and Frances and the 3 children are inmates in the 'York Union Workshouse' Huntington Road. Sorry Danielle-Marie

Hi Lulli, It is very difficult Mary Ann Summer doesn't seem to appear on the 1851 or 1861. Not with a father called Charles anyway. There is one on the 1851 with a mother called Mary A and a father called Ziba. Keep Trying though and best of luck Take care Danielle-Marie

Thanks Danielle , told you it was a difficult one ! but thankyou again for trying, Lulli x

hi danielle thank you, i just still can't find him in the 1841 census:( thanks again jet:)

Hi Danielle, Thank you for your offer.I am stuck with a new line of enquiry into my tree and any help whatsoever would be appreciated. I think I may not be seeing the wood for trees!! I am looking for ALFRED BAXENDINE born c1863 in Southwark or any of his relations. He married a LAVINIA (maiden name unknown) in 1893. He was a self employed flower dealer. On the 1901 census he was resident at 43 Staple St, London. If you look at that census you will see other Baxendines living next door. Im presuming they are relations but I dont know how! I cant find anything else. There are other Baxendines in the area but I cant work out what the relation is etc etc as I cant find ALFRED anywhere else!! Id be really grateful if you could have a look/suggest where I might be going wrong.......... Look forward to hearing from you Best James

Hi James, Have sent what I have found to your email. Regards Danielle-Marie

Thanks Danielle-Marie. They are both the right Benjamin Quibells. The 1851 census threw up another granddaughter I didn't know about - Fanny. I'm descended from her sister Harriet. Their surname is actually Faux - I would never have thought of looking for Fank! Robin

Thanks for the offer! Can you have a look at the 1891 census for me? I'm after the husband and children of Rosalie she married either Richard Allen or Elijah Catton in Kings Lynn in late 1881. She was born in 1861 in Heacham, Norfolk. Thanks! Louise

Hi Lisa, I'm afraid I couldn't find either a Rosalie Allen or a Rosalie Catton in the 1891 censu but I did find a Rosalie Catton n the 1901 census. She is living with her husband Elijah Catton c1857 and children: Georgeina M c1884 (strange spelling?) Mabel L c1885 Elijah L c1887 Sydney H c1889. On further looking though my puttting in son Elijah's name I came up with the following from the 1891 census. Elijah Catton c1887 living with mother Rocelie c1862 and father Elizabeth c1857 (this is obviously a mistake and could easuly be Elijah) Alos in household is: Georgeina, Mabel and Sydney (dates of births as above). Looking at the actual image the Head of household is clearly Elijah Catton not Elizabeth (Elizabeth isn't even on there someone was definately having a bad day when they transcribed that) Hope this helps Danielle-Marie x

That's fab, ta very much! Louise

*nudge* so you know where to come for help!
