Dear Listers, I am looking for a few Surnames in England. WHITFIELD around 1840 + Liverpool/Lancashire, This WHITFIELD family is said to originate from Warrington. HOWLETT from Cambridgeshire mid-late 1700 I have traced this family back from NSW Australia where three sons were sent for life on a charge of Larceny. ROOKE late 1700 early 1800 I am not too sure where about in England they came from but I am tracing them back from Tasmania Australia. BELL this is my brickwall I don't even seem to be able to find much about this family. What I have is Kathleen BELL sent to Australia as a British Home Child in 1934. She was born in West Bromwich 1922 daughter of Gladys BELL nee THOMPSON and George Thomas BELL (Coalminer H???) he deserted before Kathleen was born we have receive a couple of addresses where Gladys live after Kathleen had left one at Wednesbury Staffordshire, one for Friars Park Wednesbury for both theses addresses there is mention of relatives living there also. There was a warrant out for George BELL I assume for desertion. Any help at all would be gratefully received and very much appreciated. Good luck to all who are searching June Western Australia
