I am trying to find the birth certificate for my Grandfather above. He was in Staveley, Derbyshire, in 1891, listing his age as 24 and being born at Tydd Gote. While his family were at Station Road, Tydd St Mary. In 1881 he was at South Road, Tydd St Mary Tom <http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/census/individual_record.asp?INDI_CO DE=1881BR_3259308_4&frompage=5> William HARDING Son Male 14 Tydd St Mary, Lincoln, England Farm Laborer Both are good locations as he moved from Derbyshire to Yorkshire following coal mining. I cannot find any record of him on FreeBMD, even though most of his siblings are there registered at Holbeach. Does SKS have any other options?

Hi there, I sent some information about MARY HATLEY who married WILLIAM TUCK in 1813 and died in 1820? or 1819? and I sent other info and to date haven't heard a word back. So was wondering if it was received safely. I would like to hear. Thank you Helen Sydney Australia

Hi Geoff That could be, but then why has the children got the surname of Poulter yet some of the sons has Pettitt, I looked for a 2nd marriage for Julia to John Poulter from 186-1871 1 also try a death for a John Pettitt between those years as it on the census of 1861 there a John Pettitt Ag Lab yet 1871 a John Poulter Butcher so I think they are possible two different people but if so why no death even if Julia never married a 2nd time Regards Janice ----- Original Message ----- From: "Geoff Lewin BLAXALL" <Geoff-Blaxall@beeb.net> To: <ENG-CAMBRIDGESHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, October 31, 2004 12:54 PM Subject: [ENG-CAMB] PETTIT/PETTET+POULTER > Janice Aitkens raises a problem with John PETTIT/PETTET who mysteriously > becomes John POULTER. > Thinking sideways Janice, could John PETTIT/PETTET have been not only a > butcher by trade, but also a poulterer ? > > I can imagine the enumerator getting to the end of the day & trying to > interview John in the shop, between customers, saying, " Name & occupation > ?" and John, also at the end of a strenuous day still busy cleaving meat > on the block, responding, "Poulterer & Butcher", not having heard the > first word. > > It's a thought ain't it ? > > Geoff Lewin BLAXALL > Hextable, Kent, S.E.

Hello Listers, I'm one of those listers that rarely sticks their head over the parapet so I doubt whether you've ever heard from me before. However I've been a member of many lists on & off for more than 6 years. I'd like to interest you in my families to see if we may have connections and at the same time maybe I can offer offer a somewhat obscure offer of help. I live 10 miles from John O'Groats in the UK and while I may be moving soon I just thought that I might be in a unique position to offer help to listers with connections to this part of the world! Just Email me privately and let me know if you think I can help your research.

Janice Aitkens raises a problem with John PETTIT/PETTET who mysteriously becomes John POULTER. Thinking sideways Janice, could John PETTIT/PETTET have been not only a butcher by trade, but also a poulterer ? I can imagine the enumerator getting to the end of the day & trying to interview John in the shop, between customers, saying, " Name & occupation ?" and John, also at the end of a strenuous day still busy cleaving meat on the block, responding, "Poulterer & Butcher", not having heard the first word. It's a thought ain't it ? Geoff Lewin BLAXALL Hextable, Kent, S.E.

Could you elaborate on the IVETT connection, please? The brother and sister of my GG Grandfather from Little Shelford married brother and sister of the IVETT family at Whittlesea. The whole lot of them emigrated to Australia in the early 1850s. Thomas RYDER m Anne IVETT 1846 Charlotte RYDER m Thomas IVETT c1846 I would also be interested to hear from anyone else with an IVETT/IVATT connection.

Hello All I have a mystery to solve & knowing how helpful you all are plus very good detectives you can be my Agatha Christie in this. I have what I thought was Hannah Murkin nee Poulter (am now waiting on a birth for a Hannah Pettit) marrying in 1884 London details from marriage cert. on the 1881 census I have her a widow at home with parents (see 1st census) well with help from Paula of this list & I got earlier census, I have a marriage of Julia Stigwood to a John Pettit (Pettit/Pettett) in 1844 Wood Ditton, now later she as I thought marries a John Poulter, so okay may be the children took his name. But looking on these earlier census it shows John Pettitt, then later changes to John Poulter as do the children but some use the name Pettett as a middle name, but it does look like that there is a case that the two John's husband to Julia are one of the same so that is mystery one. Mystery two is that while looking on the 1881 census I come across a John Murkin wife Hannah, (not Hannah who married a Murkin as she married in 1875 to Henry Merkin (that how it was spelt then on marriage certificate) now these have their children plus step children who surnames are Pettit who were born in the area of Stetchford which is where a lot of Stigwoods came from so is this a coindence or are they related your advice is greatly appreciated as this is getting a real Sherlock Holmes case Regards Janice Dwelling: Cottage Census Place: Kirtling, Cambridge, England Source: FHL Film 1341400 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 1674 Folio 69 Page 4 Marr Age Sex Birthplace John POULTER M 60 M Woodditton, Cambridge, England Rel: Head Occ: Butcher Julia POULTER M 56 F Kirtling, Cambridge, England Rel: Wife Thomas POULTER U 25 M Kirtling, Cambridge, England Rel: Son Occ: Ag.Lab.

Dear Gill, just as an aside, did you know of the Uffindell in my county (Hampshire) in 1890, one Charles F. Uffindell of 13 Hereford Road (North side), Southsea? As there are Uffindells in Cambridgeshire, Oxfordshire, Essex and London, it rather looks as though they made their way down the east side of England.

Sorry, that is all I know at present. Vicki

This is bit of a wild card - but I wonder if anyone out there can help. I have just discovered my husband's great grandfather Joseph Carter ALMEY married Emma (or Emily) Elizabeth UFFINDELL in Hull, Yorkshire in 1881. Their marriage certificate names Isaiah UFFINDELL (deceased) as her father. I can find no trace of him at all. And have very limited information of Emma Elizabeth UFFINDELL, apart from that she was born 1854 (where?) and that at the time of the 1891/1901 censuses, she was living in Hull. I have found no connection with Cambridgeshire, but am posting here as I have found a number of UFFINDELLs here. But are any related? Can anyone help?

Dear Kay Only if you have time,and you might not be visiting this part anyway? One of my anscestors,Frank Pym was killed on the 5th November 1914[90 years on Friday] Quite fitting that I should be remembering him now.He won the DCM just days before he was killed.He was in the Berkshire Regiment.His service number was 9803 and he is remembered on the Ypres[Menin Gate]memorial,panel 45.Like so many men,he was a mere lad,[aged 20]never having the chance to marry and have a family of his own.
