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?

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. Can I suggest you try the Portsmouth list? It's a very busy list with lots of helpful people, you should get something from there I would think.
