Hi, Think what they are doing is putting it in another format for easy access for all, not actually keeping the records there in foreign lands. The problem I see is that British people over the years have had trouble transcribing correctly names and towns so would foreigners do any better?

Just like to add to Sarah's comments re information on certificartes. I have a Mary Ann Guile dying in 1882 Portsea with Amelia Ann Groom given as her granddaughter present at the death. Whoopee I said another clue, except following through via censii etc. Amelia Ann b. 1843 was the daughter of Richard Howard and Caroline Mathews. She married Charles Groom in 1863 St. Marys, Portsea. Nothing has come to light with the names Groom, Howard or Mathews that links them to the Guile family.

Hi Listers, I am looking for a lady emailer called VERONICA who is researching THOMAS MORGAN AND ELIZA BIRD in Dorset and Hampshire I have just taken Incredimail off my computer and lost 400 emails and addresses plus the fact Incredimail had a habit of not printing out address headings on my emails so when I went to answer it I drew a blank. Vironica is you are on this list would you please get in touch again. Shelaghc

Philip, I have the marr. cert. of John Coote and Elizabeth Gawn, Nov 24 1857, St Mary, Alverstoke. - John, widower, pilot, resident in Gosport, of full age, was the son of John Coote, pilot. - Elizabeth, spinster, resident in Gosport, of full age, no occupation, was the da. of Stephen Gawn, pilot. - Witnesses: Rd. Lacy; Hannah Germain. I suspect Lacy was the parish clerk (he witnessed other marriages at St Mary). I've no idea who Hannah Germain was. - Married by A.C. Blunt, Curate. I've several candidates for Stephen Gawn but cannot tell which is the right one. As you know from previous correspondence my Gawn family were resident in East Street, Portsmouth, and the surrounding streets, in the 19th century. Best wishes, Peter Gawn (Canada). ----- Original Message ----- From: <EWRAYSURE@aol.com> To: <ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 7:11 AM Subject: Coote family - Trinity Pilots from Old Portsmouth > Does anyone have an interest in the Coote family > who lived in East Street, Seagers Court, Red Lion Yard > and St Thomas Street in Old Portsmouth in the nineteenth century? > > Three brothers John, George and William, were pilots. > > Philip >

I am trying to find anything on Samual Goodfellow. He was alive in 1886, age around 40ish. Portsea. occupation dairyman. His son William lived at 28 Grosvenor Street but I am unsure if Samual was of the same address. I have tried Free BMD to no avail. Any help would be appreciated as to where I go next.

Does anyone have an interest in the Coote family who lived in East Street, Seagers Court, Red Lion Yard and St Thomas Street in Old Portsmouth in the nineteenth century? Three brothers John, George and William, were pilots. Philip

Hi Edna, the post code on streetmap only gives the first four digits, whereas there are usually another three or four in a full postcode. The Green Lane shown on Streetmap is the one at Hardway. The one in the Alverstoke area of Gosport may not have a postcode because there are no houses actually fronting onto it. It is quite leafy and rural looking, and I can remember some big stag beetles lying on the path when I had to walk down it once! If you go to www.multimap.com, search for Gosport, then go to the 1;10000 scale, and click west twice, you will see Green Lane just south of Foster Gardens. On that map it is a small cul-de-sac, but on my map here it looks like a normal road, whereas neither is really correct. It is actually shown on streetmap too, just search for The Paddock and it is right next to there Margaret ----- Original Message ----- From: "Edna & Ken" <ekbrit@rogers.com> To: <ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 12:14 AM Subject: [PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT] Green Lane, Gosport & Portsmouth > > Hi, I noticed on Streetmap that the postal code was the same for both > Alverstoke and Gosport but different for Portsmouth. > > Edna - Ottawa > > > > > ==== ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT Mailing List ==== > Visit the knightroots website at www.knightroots.co.uk > > ============================== > Search the US Census Collection.

Hi Jon My Red Book of Gosport shows another Green Lane, in Alverstoke.It runs north from Anglesey Road up to Foster Gardens. As far as I can remember it is not a road as such, just a back lane, at least at the Foster Gardens end, and it runs behind the school and I think the tennis club too.

Hi everyone, Can sks give any assistance in locating "Green Lane" in the Gosport / Portsmouth areas please? Both the bride and groom were living in Green Lane when they were married at St Mary's Portsea in 1840. The parish details don't say that they were of that parish though. The families have strong Gosport connections, but even using a street index, there doesn't appear to be a Green Lane in Alverstoke, a number of Green other things though! any assistance gratefully recieved. regards to all, Jon -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
