This is a bit of a last Doing all three in three hours would be cutting it fine, on foot, IMO. You can speed things up (a little) by printing out the relevant certificate application form by getting it from; http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/your-city-council/register-office/getting-copy-certificates You might do the RO first (you might have to queue if it's busy), and see what time you have left. There's also a possibility of getting a taxi from the station to the cemetery to speed things up a bit more, or even getting a later train from Sheffield, if there's on available. Otherwise, it might be a case of "pick any two from three". -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" I am alone there's nobody there I Look Alone - Buzzcocks

Hello Beth According to a booklet I have about the Cemetery and new Crematorium (dated 1910) it says the Cemetery is about 2 miles outside the city centre. I would say it is a bit too far out to be able to fit it in within the 3 hours if you are visiting the Cathedral and the GRO. It is quite a way from the station to the middle of Sheffield and uphill all the way! And do you know where at the cemetery you are going to? It is a large place. Is there another way you can get the death cert? You might just be able to fit the other two in if you take a taxi to the Cemetery.

Can anyone tell me if City Road Cemetery is anywhere near or at least within reasonable walking distance of the train station in Sheffield? I will be in Sheffield next week and unfortunately will only have a few hours to spend there. Originally I was planning to spend a few days there, but my plans had to be changed - oh well. I wil be travelling from Liverpool and decided to make a stop enroute to London and visit the cemetery to see where my gggrandmother is buried - no stone, but I at least want to visit. Also, if any of you are locals, do you by chance know if there are lockers at the station where I can stash my luggage (just one small bag actually) while making my whirlwind visit? I tried to find out, but there doesn't seem to be any information of that sort on the website for the train station. Do you think it is feasible to visit the cemetery, stop by the Cathedral and stop by the Sheffield GRO and order a death cert, given that I will only have about 3 hours? This is a bit of a last minute decision to make this trip and as I leave Monday (from Chicago), I am really down to the wire to make arrangements! So, any advice anyone can send will be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much! Beth in Chicago

Josephine said "could be MacKinney, MacKenzie, McKinnon, O'Cionaoith, Kennelly, Kenneally or some other attempt at spelling by the census taker." Thanks everyone who replied to my query. In the 1901 census I did a search by first name, with birth place Sheffield age 11 + 3 years and there wasnt anyone with even a similar name or even with the right family. I also did this with Sarah senior and the same again.

Hi June and list >From my shy aquaintance more helpful information/suggestions, re the search for your elusive Kenney Subject: Kenney could be MacKinney, MacKenzie, McKinnon, O'Cionaoith, Kennelly, Kenneally or some other attempt at spelling by the census taker.

Dear family historians, Now that summer is approaching and the disgusting weather is keeping more of us indoors, more of us are turning to their research. We have lots of new devotees to geneology, so it is perhaps time to clear up some misconceptions about the YKS Surnames List. Do bear with me. 1. The YKS Surnames List is a totally independent, entirely free, database of Yorkshire surnames and of those who are researching these names. Some names are even entered up to 20 times with the names of 20 different researchers. 2. The list does not belong to rootsweb or Genuki, except for the fact that Genuki very kindly provides the server facilities. I also owe a special thanks to the List Administrators of the several gen lists to which I post these updates although I am not personally subscribed to them. 3. To say that it is a list is perhaps a misnomer as it is not a list in the sense that it is like the gen lists. You cannot subscribe (or unsubscribe) to the database and there are no provisions whatsoever for posting queries or answering your questions. These are not my names, so please do not ask me to do lookups for you. Any questions you have should be posted on the Yorkshire gen list(s) to which you belong. 4. Most importantly, you must read the instructions for submitting surnames and follow them to the letter. This means entering all the essential information you asked for, namely a contact name and email address. This week I deleted 4 different submissions because either the contact name or the email address was not provided. This applies to both those who use the form we provide (when your ISP accepts it) or when you send me your names in a text message. That information must appear in the body of your message to ensure that all your information is correctly entered. 5. And for those who are concerned with privacy issues, all the email addresses are encoded on the index to protect you from harvesters. That is why you only see EMAIL next to a name. 6. It is up to every submitter to keep me informed of changes in email addresses. There is no form for this, you have to mail me directly. When I am informed of a bouncing email, I do a double-check and then delete every single entry with that email. This is what happened, yet again, this week. The following submitters' entries were deleted: Robert Kellett (1) [email protected] Sally Taylor (1) [email protected] AJL Hollis (1) [email protected] Richard B Gillion (25) [email protected] (These entries were deleted because I was informed: <<< 550 rbgillion IS NOT ACCEPTING MAIL FROM THIS SENDER>>> and all my attempts to contact him at the website he provided went undeeded. Not too many but always welcome new submissions this week: BULMER KELLETT, KENNEDY PROVOST ROBINSON SPEIGHT WALKER Best regards to everyone, Magdalena -- Magdalena Gorrell Guimaraens List Administrator INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING NAMES and Home Page: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/YKSlist/ PLEASE ADDRESS ALL CORRESPONDENCE TO: [email protected]

Hi Josephine I think I have a similar problem with my husband's great grandmother. Sarah Ellen KENN(EY). She was born in 1869 at Spring Street, Sheffield and I have found her on the 1871 census at Spring Street with her parents and older brother and later on the 1881 census with her widowed mother and older and younger brothers at Spring Street. She gave birth to her daughter Sarah Ann KENN(E)Y at 8 Cross Love Street Sheffield. She married an Edward CLASBY on 1 October 1889 and gives her address as 8 Cross Love Street. In December 1889 Sarah Ellen's mother also, Sarah (nee POWELL) died and the death was registed by Sarah Ellen living at 8 Cross Love Street. However, I cannot find Sarah Ellen or her husband or daughter on the 1891 census. I can however find Sarah Ellen's brother John and his wife Emmelyne with James, Sarah Ellen's younger brother living at 8 Cross Love Street on the 1891 Census. I cannot find them or even Sarah Ann on the 1901 census either. I have tried to search with variations on the name but without success. I did find a Sarah Ellen Kenny as a domestic on the 1891 census which makes her too young but maybe she was lying about her age and marriage to get the job or maybe it was just wasnt her. It is understood she was married 3 times and from the grandaughters of one of these marriages in the name of MOORE, the other names were Connor and Gillespie. On Sarah Ann's first marriage certificate to Rueben BENSON in 1908 she does not give a fathers name but in her second marriage (after Rueben's death) she states her father as Edward CONNOR. So I tried looking under this but nothing fits. Has anyone any ideas on what I should do.

Hi June and List, re the ongoing thread re McKay and your answer, below, Oh what a tangled web etc etc... I guess you must have tried Kennedy, for Kenn(ey) which came to mind straight away... Apparently my new aquaintance has studied gaelic for 10 years and her grandmother was a McKay. She says that Mc Aodha /Mc Hugh, McKay etc, is the Irish translation of 'son of Hugh'... fascinating. If I can think of any other variations or happen to find the missing Kenneys etc on the relevant censuses, I will certainly inform you and the list.One never knows who else might be looking for them...it's only taken 8 years to track down Great Grandmother Catherine/Kate McKay, so hope springs eternal.

It is peculiar that the name on Ancestry was written as McHague and McKague, and I inadvertently read it as McHugh... obviously my great grandmother was wanting to be found...food for thought.

Hi List and Nicole, Unfortunately on my last email regarding the McKay conundrum, I wrote re James McKay that he was wrongly listed on the 1851 Sheffield census as McHugh... must have been dreaming... it was actually on the census as McHague. I suppose with a thick Irish Brogue it isn't that far out to suppose that McKay could have been heard by the census taker as McHague. Peculiarly James was also listed as McHague/ McKague! on the 1841 census as well. I apologize for any confusion I may have caused, Kindest Regards, Josephine M. Laxton. p.s I am going to contact Ancestry re the entry as it could not be drawn up by entering James McHague. I got it quite by chance by writing in Andrew McHague (james's son's name) and Sheffield. No wonder we sometimes have trouble finding our Ancestors, they certainly didn't make it easy...

Hello List and Nicole, I am replying to this email somewhat belatedly, as we have just made a breakthrough in the search for our family of McKay in Sheffield. I am not sure if there is any connection, with the Mary McKay whom you list in your email Nicole, (see below) however, I think that you may gain from knowing that my particular McKays had been giving me a headache for years. My great Grandmother insisted on every census that she was born in Sheffield. I was very sceptical about this. I'm sorry Grandma, I should never have doubted you. My sister after much sleuthing, angst and a few occasional temper tantrums came up with the following last night from the 1851 census on Ancestry.com Sheffield... St. James Parish... 39 Smith St.(think this is the correct designation difficult to read) H.O. 107/2338 p. 218 James McHugh!!! (not) should have read McKay. Head. Occupation 'Cooper' born County Sligo Ireland. age 54 Mary wife " " " " " " age 40 Jane daughter born Barnsley Yorkshire age 21 James son born Northamps. (hard to decipher) age 14 Undecipherable. dau born Sheffield age 11 Catherine dau (my elusive great grandmother) born Sheffield age 9 Andrew son born Sheffield age 3 undecipherable. dau born Sheffield age 9 months. I have to wonder if James McKay wasn't married twice? there is a 7 year gap between his first two children...in that case my Great Grandmother was likely born of James McKay's second wife... I am pretty confident that this is my family for the following reasons. James McKay, occupation 'Cooper' is listed on my great grandmother Catherine McKay's wedding cert to Robert Johnson, at St George's Church Sheffield in 1861 as her father... My great grandmother Catherine had only one son whom she named James Andrew Johnson. the Birth date for her is also correct from her Marriage cert, and tallies with the census. I believe the reason why we could not find her until now is that she was that she was not registered asa a birth until 1845...also wrongly written as McGahey!!! not KcKay... although born in 1842. Catherine (Kate) also named her daughters Mary, Jane and Kate. The question which I have now is: as a 'Cooper' which Firm would James McKay most likely have been working for in Sheffield? I believe there was some connection of the Johnsons and McKays in the Distillery business. (Whiskey). James McKay's son Andrew McKay, apparently emigrated to America as did my great uncle James Andrew Johnson later on. Mary Anne, the widow of Andrew McKay, (brother of my great grandmother Kate Johnson nee` McKay) travelled extensively from America to England in the late 1800's up to about 1909. at least once every two years. She was a resident of Connecticut from 1895 on, and listed as an American Citizen on several censuses but clearly born in Sheffield...she was also married in Sheffield and the Marriage cert does rightly name her husband as Andrew MacKay...... any help would be much appreciated re Coopers or Distillers in Sheffield. Kindest regards, Josephine M. Laxton Ontario, Canada. p.s. I guess research in Ireland is next on the List, although I don't hold out much hope. By my estimate from the 1851 census, James McKay was born in 1797 in County Sligo (maybe Belfast). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dusty & Barbara Miller" <[email protected]> To: "Sheffield List" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 10, 2007 3:48 PM Subject: [SHEFF] Mary M[a]cKAY > Hi List, > I am trying to find my Great Grandmother. > Mary Ann M[a]cKAY bn c 1881 the only record I have of her is her marr > certificate to James WINTER in Aug 1902. > Her record is Mary Ann M[a]cKAY age 21 yrs old last known residence Abbey > Lane Beau Chief father William M[a]cKAY deceased occ Tailor Marr in > Ecclesall Bierlow Sheffield in the parish church of Norton Woodseats Derby > That is all I can find of her I have tried the Irish Census & English Census > no sign of her > > Could anyone help find her in parish records or her father please > Nicole MILLER > Marton NZ

Jo, John and Jeni > wondering and hoping that somebody has connection with this family - I don't think I can help, but I found it very interesting that many of the names and places you mention connect and are associated with my own LEADBEATER family. Edwin PRIEST was an executor to the will of my 2xgreat grandfather Henry LEADBEATER: ".....bequeathing his property in Holly Street to his nephew Henry LEADBETTER on condition he paid to his (the testator's) wife the said Mary Ann LEADBETTER the sum of seven shillings per week during her lifetime". The will also appointed Edwin PRIEST as Executor. States the Testator (Alfred LEADBETTER) died 27 Nov 1876. and (6) Letters of Attorney. Henry Leadbeater, as (4-5), to Edwin Priest, of Sheffield, optician, to be the agent for all his premises, as Leadbeater is leaving England. If your FISH or PRIEST connects with SMITH, SUTTON or LEADBEATER I'd be interesting to hear from you.

I am looking for a marriage between William REVILL/REVELL (and variations) to a Hannah. There is a child, Thomas, born abt. 1824 and a Joseph abt. 1831. Obviously there could be more children. William appears to be alive in 1842 when his son, Thomas married Eliza BUSSEY at St Peters on 7th August 1842, and he was described as a Cutler. I have been unable to find baptisms for William and Hannah's children and also the marriage. Any help would be appreciated.. Cheers LIZ www.btinternet.com/~e.newbery
