1. Re: [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] Missing father's name [1]
Hi Tracey: Short of DNA no! You mention no dates or location. Have you found his baptism? Sometimes the Vicar will write in the margin of the parish register "bastard child" or write the parents singularly in the parents column. I have many examples of that in my FH particularly in Whitechapel & Stepney. Perhaps the couple were not married at the time of the birth (away at sea etc) but subsequently married. Have you found the marriage of Goodman & Henry Gibbons? Henry Gibbons could well be someone el

Celia asked ... "Is there a website on which you can access old electoral rolls? ... her death was registered by her nephew, J (John?) Doree of 41 Temple Buildings, E2 ... I am hoping to track him down using the electoral rolls ..." Well Celia, as you don't specify that you only want to know about free sites, you may wish to search for John DOREE in London at http://www.192.com/ since it provides one hit on it's Old Electoral Role facility ... a John J.DOREE to be precise, but you need to pay t
3. [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] More mariners [1]
Sorry, forgot to add that many people hitched rides up & down the river on these barges as well, as many barges had very regular schedules, which may be why Santa's ancestor might have had a second home at Upchurch. My ancestors who moved from St Mary Hoo in Kent to Stepney had no trouble keeping in contact with their family back home - prob because they knew the local barge masters & hitched free rides with them. The Medway was a significant water highway in Kent as well as mooring where the coastal barge

6. [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] Marriage certificate [1]
I have in my possession a marriage cert. July 27th 1884 of a 2 x G Uncle Albert Kite who was an Ivory Cutter. The marriage took place in St Thomas Church Bethnal Green. This certificate was found on a market stall by a browser who was fascinated by its appearance and having no connection to my family, purchased it. He later advertised it hoping to reunite it to a family member and fortunately succeeded- me!! The certificate is pale blue. across the top is the inscription 'Those whom God hath joined t
7. Re: [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] What's in a name -Una [1]
You're talking of the woman I love - my wife's name is Una! My mother had an aunt Una Harding born in South Woodford in 1895. I don't know if it originally was a Gaelic name - it's the Gaelic version of Agnes. It can be spelt Oonagh in Gaelic. Charlie Chaplin's daughter was Oona.

8. [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] What's in a name [1]
Greetings from the Colonies and not a tornado in sight! I am tangling with the name "UNA" anyone have that in their history? She was originally registered as ANNA - but all census give her as UNA. I am thinking perhaps the "accent" and the "scribe" where at odds. The name UNA did continue thru other generations. Thanks Shirley
9. Re: [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] More mariners [1]
Thank you for these interesting replies. The possibility that he was a bargeman seems to fit with other details -- I actually think he (George Peirce) may have been part owner of a barge. His son (Hervey Pierce) describes himself as a "gentleman" at the baptism of his two children at St. Dunstan's; he died a fairly wealthy man, also, his son (John Harvey Pierce) owned the Edinburgh Castle (?) , a coal yard, and 400 feet of Thames frontage, at the time of his death in 1818. Also perhaps tangentially

Thanks for the homepage info. I went to the Catholic FHS homepage and reading through, the researcher who helped me was Barbara Murray. A delightful lady from what I could tell from our correspondence. Charges in 2000 were very, very reasonable. If you contact me off line I'll give you her details. I wasn't thinking when I posted the Goggin address & phone number.

Having bought 4 certificates, all I have managed to achieve is the date of death of my g grandfather, it is highly likely that his birth was not registered. I also have the death certificate of a man who may prove to be his father, certainly the name and occupation fit, likely age is right. however I have no more.He died in the Sick Asylum Bromley 18/10/1886 of Pulmonary Gangrene, whatever that is, His residence was given as the Poplar Union Workhouse. As I have no place or date of birth, Ancestry is not mu

Take heart Joe - we have all been there! There is the Catholic FHS in London. I managed to contact them about 2000 and a researcher helped me. A little antiquated society - I think they are purely grass roots. Although they may have moved into the techno age by now.

Hi Bob I live in Ontario so thought I'd see what I could find for you. I found Reuben and Susannah in the Ontario 1881 Census. I have ordered census film from the National Archives before, and they sent it out to my local family history centre for me to view and make copies. The number of the film is 1375885........ I also found a reference for Reuben under Ontario Canada deaths 1897 York. You probably already have the marriage from December 1867 in Greenwich greater London, but thought I'd add that as wel
20. Re: [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] Mariners [1]
I have two Bethnal Green ancestors who were described on the 1851 census as being an oarman and a sailor, respectively. They were relatively young, 18 and 20. Did these occupational descriptions hold any specific meaning or were they simply used for the lower level seamen?

23. [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] Edinburgh Castle [1]
Celia That's really interesting. I do recall having read somewhere about the Dr Barnado's link - maybe from a visit to the Ragged School Museum in Copperfield Road. Was it knocked down before the 1960's though? I remember King George's Fields as always being there, but I suppose this could be from 1962 onwards. Actually, the 1914 map that I have does show a "Mission Church " just next to a church in Edinburgh Road, above St Paul's Way. There is also a large looking building (not named or identifie
24. Re: [EOLFHS-MEMBERS] More mariners [1]
Although the Edinburgh Castle was originally a pub, it was bought by Dr Barnardo and turned into a soup kitchen. It later became a chapel - I went to Sunday School there. It was demolished in the 1960s as part of the redevelopment of the area, much to the dismay of local residents.
