Hi, I am new to this list and trying to trace Sidney HAMMOND, who was born in Hatfield in 1830, the 2nd son of Thomas HAMMOND and Jane BRADLEY. I work at Hatfield House and Sidney was a servant here in 1846. I am trying to find out what happened to him for an exhibition. In the 1841 census he can be found in French Horn Lane, with his parents and siblings. In 1851 he is at Arlington Street, the London residence of the 2nd Marquess of Salisbury. Unfortunately our own records stop here, so I don't know when he stopped working here, but it was certainly before 1861. I haven't been able to find him at all on the 1861 census, even though I've tried every single search term that I can possibly think of! His father died in 1851 and his mother and younger brother moved back up to Yorkshire, where she was from. I have traced one of his sisters as a servant at another London house and one of his brothers went to Australia. I've tried looking in the Australian death records for him, but although his brother (George) is there, Sidney is not. Does anyone have any ideas? It's as though he just vanished off the face of the earth! Best wishes, Vicki Perry Assistant Archivist Hatfield House

Just after sending my previous question about London marriage registers, I found them on Ancestry -- takes some sifting through the list of available material, but there they are (baptisms, too) and it's lovely to see the original entries -- even though I haven't yet found the ones I was looking for. Hope this resource might extend out beyond London one day!

Thank you Heather and Anthony for the information. The reason I am so interested in Serge Hill, is because I have a book that belonged to my Grandfather (Herman Nullmeyer b. 1873). This book ( Pilgrims Progress) was presented to him in 1914 by, Harvey. C. Perkins and Percy G. Simmonds. It reads "To Sergeant. Herman Nullmeyer, in remembrance of Hyde Park 1914. My grandfather was attached to the, Queens Westminster Rifles, 1914-1918 rank of CSM. Also 1st. Middlesex R.V 1895-1900 The information below I found last week, having had my memory jogged re. 1st WW. I thought to my self what did happen in Hyde Park in 1914. August 1914 Hemel Hempstead, in Hertfordshire. The Queen's Westminster Rifles marched (as part of the 2nd London Division) from Hyde Park to Edgware on 16 August 1914 and then on the following day to the St Alban's area. At Leverstock Green they carried out a systematic course of hard training in preparation for their departure for France. In a completely different search I looked for Herman's mother on the 1911 census, when I found that she was the House keeper at Serge Hill House, I thought that the two must be linked. >From the information found, it looks like Mary Anne was housekeeper to the Solly family. I wonder if Capt. H. Solly had links with the "Queens Westminster Rifle's" I think another family History mystery, may have been solved. Rg. Lynne .......................................................................................................................................................................................... 1901 census for Serge Hill (transcribed League Hill by The Genealogist) has Henry R Solly Captain of Militia with wife, daughter, 3 visitors and an assortment of servants (but no Mary Anne at this date). One wonders if at 50 he served in WWI. There was an Hon. H. Solly Captain and Quartermaster with the 19th Middlesex. His post-war address was in London.

Hi, when looking for my great grandmother who I know is buried in a particular part of a churchyard, I had to ask the undertakers in the town for a plot number , and he contacted the churchwarden or the verger of the church and they were able to say whereabouts she was though not the specific spot .

Hi naig1313, I am unsure of what more you want. My guess is you wish to contact someone who has these people in their tree. I do not. But if you have not done complete UK census search (1841-1911) and if you have not followed this up with FreeBDM searches (1837-1915approx) then you should so so. If you would like me to do this much for you I will. Maybe some one else can comment-offer help on more local data such a pre1837 church records mostly offline and more difficult things to do such as wills, emigration, service records, newspapers etc. Cheers John of Australia ----- Original Message ----- From: "naig1313" <naig1313@atlantic.net> To: <eng-hertfordshire-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 18, 2009 2:55 AM Subject: [HRT] Hunt-Hitchin, Herts, UK > Searching for information on the following family.

Mary: This family has been quite well researched. If you have access to Ancestry look under public member trees. Although sources must always be checked, the first I looked at (Wright Family Tree) confirms Mary was the daughter of George Goodship and Sarah Jackson and shows her marriage to George Hunt, listing 8 children of their marriage. There is even a Hunt Family Tree; although it will not add to your information on Arthur, it does follow some of his siblings. Be aware that these trees often contain errors and these get copied to other trees so it is not the most reliable way to go about doing your research!

Mary: I am quite interested in Mary Goodship as that was my Mother's maiden name. However, there are two Goodship families, mine from Paulswalden and yours from Hitchin; possibly both originated from Bedfordshire. Armed with the census details and a probable birth date of 1812 I went to IGI and found the baptism of Mary Goodship at Hitchin St Mary on 9 February 1812. Her parents were George Goodship and Sarah. George Goodship was married three times. The information below was in part courtesy of another family historian (GH). You will notice it does not include Mary but she could be a first child that I had missed. There was another George and Sarah Goodship at St Pauls Walden who are on my side of the family but all points to your Mary being from Hitchin. Anthony George Goodship birth date unknown, census suggests 1790, but baptized with siblings 2 May 1798. He was married three times (GH) (1) Sarah Jackson born Baldock date unknown. George Goodship of Hitchin married Sarah Jackson of Baldock at Hitchin St Mary 14 December 1811; Banns Baldock 1 October 1811(Herts Marriage Index).

The marriage was at Hitchin St Mary on 6 October 1833 according to www.hertsdirect,org although it does not appear in the IGI transcription. You can order the record online from HertsDirect.

Hi Anthony: Thanks I will go thru the info tonight and get back to you. I was born in Hitchin many years ago and in fact have just returned after the death of my mother.
