Hi Linda and Tony. I don't have Edna's E.Mail address but do you know if William James Hellyer was 30 when he died, as there is a death on Free BMD for a William James Hellyer, aged 30 yrs Mar qtr 1891 Portsea. I'll E.Mail Portsmouth cemeteries to see if they have a listing Regards Jan [email protected] wrote: Hello all most of us have at least one elusive ancestor!

Hi Jan. Yes I have that fellow but mine would have been approx. 36 years. I have checked this one out, but alas his father and family do not co-incide at all. If anyone is interested in the WJH you mention herein, I can pass on what I have found. So the search for death/burial still goes on for my William James Hellyer (1854-c1893). Thank you Jan.

I should like any information about the ancestry or origins of WILLIAM VOYSEY or FOISEY, born about 1785, married 1811 to Jane Wilkes at Wymering, died 1830 Buckland. I'm afraid even Santa may have difficulty with this one, but it's worth a try.
