Hi Monica I'm glad you got a reply, even if the rest of the List members were unable to benefit from seeing it. As regards finding that baptism, may I suggest you send an email to <local.studies@southampton.gov.uk> asking your question. They have bound volumes of Southampton Parish Registers that they will happily look up for you.

Hello Dave & Fellow Listers, This is the reply that I have received from Special collection library regarding SOUTHAMPTON MUSICIANS. I am very pleased with their reply and will be thanking them for their time and trouble. Bye for now, Syd Hockey. (Southampton) Dear Mr Hockey We have checked our files and indexes for information about John James Read and other Southampton Musicians, but unfortunately there does not appear to have been a great deal of research in this field. We have found death notices for John James Read in both local newspapers on Saturday 21st March 1857. The Hampshire Independent's reads: "READ.- March 20, in the 20th year of his age, Mr John Read leader of the band at the Theatre Royal, Southampton, whose premature death will be long and deeply felt by his numerous friends, both private and professional." The Hampshire Advertiser has: "Yesterday (Friday) after a few days' illness, Mr John James Read, leader of the Orchestra at the Southampton Theatre, aged 20 years. The deceased was a promising musician, and bid fair to have pbtained a prominent position in his profession." The Hampshire Independent had reports, on the 21st and 28th, of performances at the Theatre Royal: on Wednesday 18th March there had been a performance of Hamlet with Mr Cathcart in the title role. The following week "a graceful and elegant danseuse from the London theatres, Mademoiselle Mazoni" had been "nightly received with rapturous applause." The season closed on the Monday 30 March, with a benefit for the lessee, Miss Mills, who was retiring from the stage, having suffered a loss of £200 on the season. Her father hoped to do better the following year. In all this detail there is no reference to the sudden death of Mr Read. The Theatre Royal was in French Street, and Cushen's Court opened off the West side of French Street, so John would have been living close to his work. You can see a picture of the Theatre, with a brief history, on PortCities Southampton at http://www.plimsoll.org/resources/SCCLibraries/1607.asp . We hope this is of help Yours Vicky Green Special Collections Library Southampton Reference Library Civic Centre Southampton SO14 7LW Tel 023 8083 2205

One of the persons detained is an elderly man, the other a young man, who says the woman is his wife: late on Wednesday afternoon they called at the Fountain Inn, near Bursledon Bridge, where the old man offered the mare for sale for twelve pounds to the ostler, who declined to be the purchaser, knowing the horse to be worth at least £40. They proceeded on their journey, the young man and woman riding, and on their arrival at this public-house, Bursledon Bridge, they again offered the horse for sale for eight pounds. A person who was present stepped out to obtain assistance, which was observed, and one of the party went to the stable (it being now dark), and brought the mare out, and turned it loose on the common; they then made their escape. Fortunately, however, the three persons were next day apprehended about two miles from Gosport, and conveyed to Gosport bridewell; until it can be ascertained from whom the mare is stolen. She is now at the Queen's Head Inn, Tichfield. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. Version: 7.0.296 / Virus Database: 265.5.0 - Release Date: 09/12/2004

Hello Dorothy My husband Ivor was born at 2 Park Terrace and I wondered if it was a nursing home especially as his mother had a heart condition since a child, and thought that maybe that was why Ivor was not born at home.Sadly his mother died when he was eight so we could never ask her.Thank you for your message as tells us a bit more of the area. Regards Valerie

Hello Dave, I contacted the Southampton Archives Office regarding my search for information on JOHN JAMES READ, professor of the Violin but unfortunately they could not help, they did suggest like yourself that I contact the Southampton local studies library, so I will be contacting them shortly and of course I will let you and the list know the results. Best wishes, Syd Hockey.

Valerie, I have an interest in 3 East Park Terrace in 1891. Looking at the previous page, it looks as if the first house might be a boarding house - about 20 people there, all unrelated, all working. No 2 however seems to belong to a legitimate family. The name is not very clear - the transcription reads "Blten" which is actually what it looks like. What surname are you looking for? I realise it's sometime later, but maybe the same family might have been in the near vicinity. Sometimes women went home to Mum to have their baby - maybe that's what happened here.

Hi Sid and all You will have seen how helpful and prompt the people at Southampton Local Studies Library are, so it would be well worth contacting them I should think. From the tender age of your Gt Granduncle, only 20 when he died in 1857, it doesn't seem likely that he was a 'professor' in the sense that we now know it, ie a lecturer at a university, so it might mean he was simply a teacher, who may or may not have been associated with an educational establishment. On the other hand he might have been a genius. You will let us know what you find out from Southampton Library or eslewhere, won't you?

Dear Valerie Your message rang a bell, and I discovered that one of my nephews' grandfather was also born at that address, although this was in 1933 I have sent an email to Southampton Local Studies asking them about this address, and I'll copy their reply to this List as soon as I get it.

Hi Carole Don't worry...it's a common mistake. Portsmouth would formerly have been in the county of Southampton ...nowadays it's in Hampshire. This list is for the city of Southampton.

Hi Marion I should start at the rootsweb site to see if they have such a list. If there isn't a DOVER one, there will almost certainly be one for KENT, which is the county containing the town of Dover. But stay! You may find subscribing to such a list interesting and useful, but for the particulat query yu have, my forst instincts would be to use these websites, in order, to try to locate the marriage: The IGI on the familysearch website FreeBMD, for the official marriage registration entry Both the above are free, but are not complete. 1837Online, for the complete and accurate BMD index entries. You pay for this, but not much. In fact as I have a few excess searches available at the moment, if you contact me privately and tell me all the details you have that point to that time and place (1843 in Dover), I'll look it up for you myself!

Dear Debbie, I have made a really silly error in my original e-mail to the List regarding my Le Fevre ancestor. Edmund/Edward LE FEVRE and family are listed on the 1881 Census as living in Southwark St Saviour Surrey England.I have traced Edwards marriage and his family members listed on the census which includes my Gr Grandfather and Great Grandmother Sarah Le Fevre and John PARSONS.I have Edwards marriage cert from 1854 with the information I gave but the error was that he gave his birthplace as Portsmouth,the mixup I think is due to the fact that I was of the understanding that the Southampton area would be the area to search for information re;Portsmouth.My apologies to everyone,am I on the right List?
