Hi Folks, How funny that there should be questions about searching the census today. I have been having problems searching the 1901 census online. I found my Gibbs family (my Dad's side) in Tadmarton, Oxfordshire with no problem, but so far have been unable to find my Mother or her family in Coventry I am looking for Richard Bannister Allcoat aged about 34 at that time and Louisa Allcoat his wife aged around 41. They married in 1889 so should be there. My Mother Winifred Louise Allcoat would have been 1 yr. old at that time but she also had two older brothers as well. I have tried all the combinations of names I can think of and shortened ones as well using the wildcard feature. I also tried looking for the address, which I think was 15, Duke Street, Coventry. I can't find any of the odd numbered houses in that street using the address search. Does anyone have any ideas? Could they have not recorded all the addresses? Or is it possible that there are a lot of omissions? What would happen if people just didn't co-operate? Any help would be appreciated. Dorothy -- Dorothy Gibbs (in Hertfordshire UK)

Hi Rosemary Version 4 of the viewer for the various LDS cds has "Neighbors-Advanced Query" found under the search menu (Earlier versions do not have it) This enables you to search for pretty much anything but remember that it will only find what is there , i.e. a lot of villages are enumerated as "Village" or similar, so the search will not find any separate addresses. It is very useful for finding those "lost" families in the 1881 in that you can search for a group of first names and say a known birth place and it will return all that have that combination. (you need to search each area CD in turn, so a likely place they might be is useful) If you do not have version 4 you can buy it from the usual LDS address for 5.95gbp (seem to remember it comes with the Mormon Immigration CD as well same price) If you have just the odd one to check let me know and I will gladly try for you.

Hi All, Just a quick question, I hope: How do you search the 1881 census for a specific house, either online or on the LDS discs? Best wishes, Rosemary

I go to the specific area eg Aynhoe then I pick a family then go forward & backwards, Dawn

Thanks Robert for the details re the Nicholls family. It confirmed some details that I had been given by someone else. I also have the following: George Nicholls born 16 April 1837 baptised 23 January 1838 Swalcliffe son of Edward labourer. Are you sure of the death for Sarah Nicholls 1828. I did not have the marriage for Ellen Nicholls to Edward Toys but this clarifies some research that I had done. In search of Charlotte Nicholls (b: 1831) I came across on the 1881 English Census the following: Farnbourough, Warwickshire (RG11/1526 Folio 86 pg 14) William Toy Head Married 53 years Claydon, OXF Ag Labourer Charlotte Toy Wife Married49 years Swalcliffe, OXF Mary Jane Toy Daug single 24 years Claydon OXF William Toy, son 22 years Single Claydon, OXF Ag labourer Edward Toy, 19 years single Farnbourough, WAR Ag labourer Hannah Toy, daug 12 years Farnbourough WAR Scholar This was the only possible Charlotte but the marriage between Ellen and Edward I would say confirms the relationship. Also I have the following which im sure will be correct......... 1891 Census Wroxton, RG12/1181 Folio 123 William Nicholls lodger 20 years B: Swalcliffe Groom & Gardener residing with Henry and Sarah Ann Taylor. Also: 1881 Census: RG11/0026 Folio 4 pg 1 London Middlesex 1 Holland Park Mews George Nicholls Head M 48 years B: Swalklife WAR Coachman Fanney Nicholls Wife M 40 years B: Middleton Cheney, Northampton and family of six children I however have not been able to find Anna Nicholls as yet.!!!

I have just return from a weekend visit to the battlefields of the Somme and Ypres. On Sunday evening I went to the Menin Gate (The Memorial to the Missing) to the ceremony called the 'Last Post'. It was a wonderful experience so very very moving. During my trip I also visited the Commonwealth Cemetery at Tyne Cot , the Franco-British Memorial at Thiepval, The South African National Memorial at Delville Wood, The Newfoundland Memorial and The Canadian National Memorial. I find it very hard to put into words the sadness I felt when I was told that on the 1 July 1916 in the battle for Thiepval 20,000 men were killed. It was the greatest tragedy in British military history. I did not loose any close relatives in the1st World War. However I am very proud to say that my husbands Grandfather who was in the Machine Gun Corps won the Croix de Guerre which is the highest French medal. To all the men who fought and gave their lives in both the 1st and 2nd World Wars I would like to say Remembered Never Forgotten Denise

Many thanks to Denise and Barb for details of the Freemans and to Dorothy for such special personal memories and information . My mum will be so pleased to hear . Thank you all best regards Robert Kite

I have now spoken to my sister and she says that the FREEMAN'S were my Grandmother's next door neighbours in Tadmarton. We only knew the lady as Mrs Freeman ( usual in those days) .... so her husband was actually the Freeman of course. She had a daughter Marjorie who was best friend to my Auntie Ethel (Ethel GIBBS). Mrs Freeman was known as the village nurse... i.e. she was the one called to look after ladies in labour, lay out people in death etc. When my family evacuated ourselves to Tadmarton in 1940 after we were bombed out from Coventry, we took another family with us. This family lived in the Freeman's cottage for a couple of months. I don't recall if the Freemans were there or not at the time. In My aunt's birthday book there are several other Freeman's:- Marjorie Freeman Oct 16th May Freeman April 3rd Elizabeth C Freeman May 4th Emmeline Freeman Dec 5th Mrs Helen (or Hanna... can't quite make it out) Freeman Jun 17th Hilda Maud Freeman Dec 17th A note in the book also says:- Alfred Freeman Tadmarton. Alf passed on August 26th 1969 aged 69 yrs. Somewhere I have a photograph of the cottages where they lived, with my Grandmother and I think Auntie Ethel and Marjorie Freeman standing outside. When I find it I'll send a copy. (It took itself off and hid as soon as I started looking for it of course!!) It's a nice looking thatched Elizabethan cottage which had been divided into three at the time and I think has now been restored. Dorothy -- Dorothy Gibbs (in Hertfordshire UK)
