In February 1890, my Gt Grandfather, John MOORCOCK , placed a missing Friends notice in a New Zealand News paper. "Thomas Archibald Moorcock, please communicate with John Moorcock Hastwell, Forty Mile Bush, New Zealand." (This was in the Wairarapa, North Island .) After first seeing that notice some years ago, and not finding any sign in of Thomas here in N.Z., i.e. Electoral Rolls, Marriage, Death Indexes, etc. Nothing on the Find My Past Passenger List. I assumed he, Thomas, had not arrived in New zealand. However, today I found him on N.Z. Papers Past. He shows as a passenger Feb. 3rd., 1884, arriving on the Doric, from London. I think it means he disembarked, at Auckland, but I need to look into that . I now have Thomas A. Moorcock, as an infant in 1851 , his Father was Archibald, Mother Isabella, living Wokingham, Berkshire, through all census, until 1881, he is a Commercial Traveller, married to Annie Sargeant with a child, Archibald John , living Lambeth, which I see is London. I will put this on the Berkshire Site, but, as the above John Moorcock was born Chertsey, I wondered if more of the family moved to Surrey , or spent time there, for John to have known him, or were they were related. Does this family show in the Family Tree of someone out there ?

Hello Robin , Great to make contact again. I just lost the e mail I wrote, hope I can remember what I wrote. I will ask a distant cousin in the UK, if he has your people noted , in his Tree. I will also send you, off Site my Tree, you may see a couple of Williams, for who I have no marriages but who may fit your time span. Not, though another John. But, I am sure I have had contact with someone who also had a John Moorcock, about the same year, as the one for whom you are looking. I hope he has not changed his e mail address. May have to leave it until after the weekend, am doing Grandmother stuff for a few days. I need to look at all my saved e mails. I am about to put a message about Thomas Archibald Moorcock , on the Site , you have given me a push to get back to this branch.

My great-grandfather John Moorcock was born about 1844 and married Ann Steptoe in 1866 and they had 16 children altogether one of which was my grandfather James Henry Moorcock. My mother Phyllis Mary Moorcock went to the school in Windsor Street, Chertsey and her brother and sister, and possibly some cousins, may have done as well. Hence my query about where information is available for admissions etc. to schools in Chertsey. Incidentally, I have never been able to find the registration entry for my John Moorcock (at one time I was pursuing your John in error!) I know his father was William Moorcock from John and Ann's marriage certificate. I think it must have been mistranscribed - I have checked the obvious spellings but so far no luck. Luckily, thanks to the census etc. I have plenty of details about his life and even where he is buried. Good luck with your searching!

I will ask Croydon Library for assistance as well, but its mentioned on an email to me this morning with Carterton. NZ (as there is a Carterton in Oxon, and visited that one) I am checking up with residents here in Carterton.NZ to see who knows about this, being given someone to contact as well.. but seeing Croydon Surrey, an area I know so well rather got me thinking today. (one year before I arrived in the world!!!) The enquiry has come from the Scouts Historian and Archivist in Wellington NZ. Adele Carterton.NZ Ex Streathamite. That is how I know Croydon!

Hi Robin Surrey History Centre holds some records of Windsor Street School in Chertsey, although I'm not sure if they include any pupil records. You can check the online catalogue at http://www.surreyarchives.org.uk and it's also worth emailing shs@surreycc.gov.uk. Please note that admissions registers are often subject to a 100-year access restriction. Best wishes Jill Hyams <<Has anyone got any information of school records including admissions for the Windsor Street Primary/Junior school in Chertsey, please?>>

From The Standard ( London, England ), Monday, February 17, 1890; pg.2;Issue 20471. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH.Mary HAMILTON , 34, living in Russell-grove, was down upon the charge-sheet for being drunk and incapable in Vassall-road on Friday night. - Police-constable 205 W stated that after the Prisoner was taken to the station it was found necessary to send for a doctor, who, seeing her condition, ordered her removal to the infirmary. The Constable had now to report that upon inquiry at the infirmary on Saturday morning, he was informed the woman had died. The charge-sheet was marked accordingly.
Robin, We may have had contact away back in time by snail mail . Steptoe does not show at this time in my Tree. My connection with Moorcock is Thomas MOORCOCK and his wife Harriett SERRIS, & on of their sons' George he born 1821 Barkham, Berkshire. In 1842, he married Mary Ann FIELD, in Egham. Their children have Baptisms in Egham , Chertsey, Addlestone. My line is my Gt Grandfather , John ( 1847) Chertsey. I also look at MORECOCK, as among even Siblings the spelling has variations. I look forward to your comments, Mary -----Original Message----- From: eng-surrey-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:eng-surrey-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Robin & Veronica Dawson Sent: Monday, 17 September 2012 8:41 p.m. To: ENG_SURREY@rootsweb.com Listers Subject: [SRY] School records CHERTSEY Hi Surrey Listers, Has anyone got any information of school records including admissions for the Windsor Street Primary/Junior school in Chertsey, please?

Thank you Jean. I have made a bit of progress since I first posted this question. I know that my great grandmother had the same case number at Newington, Lambeth and Cane Hill; and I have found a series of records listed at the LMA, organized by case number and date (unfortunately the volume that would have contained hers is missing!), which helps me figure out when hers would have been first issued. I've also found some settlement examinations on Ancestry that show case numbers, and so I suspect hers was issued by the Southwark Union Board of Guardians. I think each institution would have been given a batch of numbers to use for patients, and it would just cycle on that way as the numbers got assigned. My g-grandmother's sister was at Stone Asylum much earlier, and as far as I can tell, the case books for her years there are available to view at the LMA, which I am very excited to do in the fall, when I travel to England. But what a tangle it is, going through all these catalogues and figuring out what is where!

From The Morning Post ( London, England ), Thursday, October 25, 1838; Issue 21157. SURREY SESSIONS. - WEDNESDAY, OCT. 24. ( Before Mr. HEDGER and a Bench of Magistrates.)Henry AUSTIN , John CONWAY , and John SULLIVAN were indicted for stealing a waistcoat, the property of Joseph TURNER , a shopkeeper at Newington.The only remarkable circumstances attending the case were, that the three prisoners were, without exception, as bad characters as any that frequented the south side of the water.The charge having been satisfactorily proved against all of them, and a verdict of Guilty pronounced, The Chairman asked if the prisoners were known before ?Three policemen stated that each of them had been tried before for felony, but escaped a severe punishment and were only imprisoned for a short time. With regard to SULLIVAN , it was stated that he had been tried twice at the Central Criminal Court, for highway robbery and for cutting and maiming.The Chairman said that the leniency extended to the prisoners had not the slightest effect in reclaiming them, and the sentence of the Court was that they be transported for Seven Years each.
Hello list, In trying to track a couple of my relatives who were in and out of asylums and workhouse infirmaries, I have come across their "case paper numbers." I'm wondering if anyone knows how these were issued, and by whom. Were they only for people who were ill, or were they given to workhouse residents as well? Once a person was issued a case paper number, did that same number follow them throughout their lives, if they were admitted and discharged at different institutions over a period of years? My g-grandmother spent time in Newington and Lambeth infirmaries, and died in Cane Hill; her sister was at Stone Asylum and Newington. Their numbers are 6514 and 25818, so can I assume there is some rhyme and reason to the numbering and therefore their original admissions (which I've yet to find) are quite some time apart? I'd appreciate hearing your ideas. Kristen in Canada
