Subject: George James Wood m. Annie Louisa Knight, 1926, London
Content-Type: text/plain
After searching for my mother's birth father in Canada, I have found that
sometime between 1919 and 1926 after placing all 3 of his children for adoption
(his first wife, Margaret Bamford Wood, had died in 1918), he moved to England
and married Annie Louisa Knight on 28 August 1926 at Walthamstow, Essex;
lived at 37 Greville Road and died 9 March 1949 at Queen Mary's (Roehampton)
Hospital. George was a Canadian veteran - was Queen Mary's a veteran's
hospital; all his records were forwarded to Veterans Affairs in Canada? Am I
correct that Walthamstow is now, or perhaps always was, part of London?
Does anyone know if 37 Greville Road still exists? What cemeteries would be
closest to this area? Did he and Annie have more children? Are there any
Knights reading this? Any information at all most welcome. Please contact
me, not the list, at if you can help and thank you.

Donald,
Chilworth Road, Southampton still exists.
I am assuming it is the same road from the northern end of Bassett
Avenue and the junction with Bassett Green Road and where the M3 now
terminates on the outskirts of Southampton
Chilworth Road runs from the above junction towards North Baddesley and
Romsey. Unfortunately, there do not appear to be any house numbers
these days, only house names, even in the postcode directory !
All the houses are of substantial size and it is quite possible one was
a nursing home or similar in 1934.

Subject: FORD surname
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Sheila Charlton Spencer asked:
I am looking for information on Richard Ford and his wife Mary who sailed
from Glasgow, Scottland in 1790. Family history says they were of Scot
ancestry, but no information on where the family home was. We have been led
to believe they may have been border people. I found a small town of "FORD"
in Northumberland County just below the border with Scotland. Is there
anyone from that area on the list that may have some information for me??
******Sheila, You are clutching at straws doing that. You should start by
checking the British Isles IGI on cd-rom at the nearest Mormon LDA family
history centre, looking for a marriage of a Richard Ford to a Mary (do you
know her surname?) pre-1791 in Scotland.
Chances are you will find them, and that will give you the family location
and let you go on from there.
Good luck.

Hello, all.
Looking for any info on the ELY FAMILY which is reported to have
left Foleshill Lane for Canada around 1860. They then went on to
America where they subsequently settled in Kansas.
My wifes ggg grandfather, Joseph Ely, was a lad then, and one of his
brothers, so the story goes, was kidnapped on the pier in
Quebec/Montreal. The
ship was fairly adamantly reported as the WAVERLY , but other than
an Irish prision ship going frequently to Australia, I can't seem
to get close to that timeframe with a Waverly.
Any clued would sure be appreciated.

Gert, the three ships you mentioned were as follows;
SPARTIATE - Diadem class 1st class cruiser built 1898 sold 1932
AGAMEMNON - There were two in your time scale. The first launched 1879 was a
Turret ship and was broken up in 1903. The second was a Lord Nelson class
Battleship launched 1906 sold 1927.
BLENHEIM - a BLAKE class 1st class cruiser. Launched 1889 Sold 1922.
The fourth name PEMBROKE was the name given to the RN Barracks at Chatham
where sailors would be accomodated pending posting to a ship.
There are pictures in Conway's "All the worlds fighting ships 1860 - 1905"
ISBN 0 85177 1335. You might be able to get it through library loan.

********
There were, and are, quite a number of different Trust Funds set up
by Carnegie in both the UK and the USA, all with differing aims and
objectives. Most of the Uk ones are administered by the Carnegie UK
Trust trustees, but all are aimed at helping the community, not
Carnegie family members.
All these U.K. trusts are based in Dunfermline, Carnegie's home

My GGGM was an Eliza CRADOCK, daughter of Thomas CRADOCK. She was born
before 1825 (she is shown as of age, over 21, when she married Frederick
Masters HENRY in 1846). Her father was Thomas CRADOCK, a porter at the
East India Co offices. I have no more data on them, but the names and
dates fit well. Do you have any more? I have looked rather half heartedly
in the censuses, but 1846 is half way between the two.

Boy, my brain must have been in neutral when I wrote that lot! My
apologies to the family and friends of Lord Charles Howard (later 1st.

Admiral Lord Collingwood was of course the man who took leadership of
the Royal Navy during the Battle of Trafalgar after Nelson was shot.
"The Admiral was born in a house below the west side of the Cathedral
of St Nicholas, down towards the Tyne. ... In the Cathedral is the
cenotaph of the Admiral who was baptised and married here.... Every
Trafalgar Day the Lord Mayor and Corporation lay a wreath on the

Collingwood House, in Oldgate Street.....'Whenever I think how I am to
be happy again, my thoughts carry me back to Morpeth.'....To this
house Admiral Collingwood came in 1791 after his marriage to Miss
Blackett, daughter of the Mayor of Newcastle, and here he spent his

The only "through motoring road" (red line) north out of Preston is "10"
which turns to "an other good motoring road" (broken red lines) about 3
miles south of Garstang and remains that way until about 2 miles north of
Garstang where it returns to red line and marked "12" right into Lancaster.
I see no reference to M6.
Harry replied:

All through it the "through motoring roads" are marked with a red number.
Coming out of the odd town these roads are also marked in black A6, A59,
but no long numbers.
