Hi Listers, I have just started to look for information about the CATHIE family which lived in Bermondsey and Lambeth in the period 1841 - 1871.  The father, John Warne CATHIE was a licensed victualler born in St George Surrey circa 1820. John married Margeretta Louise SMARTat Shoreditch in the March qtr of 1842.  MArgaretta was born in 1821 at Bishopsgate without in Middlesex.   In 1881, The family was at 83, Blackfriars Road, with John shown as a wine merchant employing 1 clerk, 1 traveller, and 4 men.  The family was at that address in 1861. I am trying to trace the lineage of their daughters, Sophia born in Lambeth in 1835,  Ellenor in Lambeth or St Saviours MDX in 1838, and Jane born in Lambeth in 1840. I have conducted a search for the daughters of John and Sophia CATHIE in FreeBMD, with the following results:- Deaths, unmarried, before 1880.  None found. Marriages: -     Sophia - Mar qtr 1860 in Edmonton Vol 3a P142 to Joseph BATTSON or to George REEVES.  I could not fine Ellenor, and te next best finds were:     Ellen - Jun qtr 1862 at Pancras Vol 1b P104 to (T)homas? ADDISON or to Douglas Nelson WILLIS     Ellen Sopha - Jun qtr 1862 at Romford Vol 4a P17 to Richard CULLEN or to Ephraim MARCH     Jane - Jun qtr 1861 in Pancras Vol 1b P171 to Charles BRADFIELD or to Arthur William STONEHOUSE     Jane - Mar qtr 1862 at Clerkenwell Vol 1b P599 to Walter Frederick MIDDLEMAS or to Charles Edward PKE I then checked out the combinations of partners by searching the first census after each marriage.  I came up with one possible marriage of interest:-     1861 Census - Sophia REEVES, aged 26 and born in Middlesex withGeorge REEVES Do any other names ring bells (No pun intended<G>)  I would love to find descendants of the CATHIE girls. With best wishes Richard Brown Bromley, Kent U.K.

Hi Richard Situations like this are where the new Ancestry/LMA/Guildhall Library collaboration really works wonders. Just go to the London Marriages 1754 - 1821 home page, input the father's name into the appropriate fields and hit enter. The marriages of Sophia, Ellen and Jane all appear, as does John Snrs marriage to Margaretta and a number of others, some of which could well be wider family. If you don't have access to Ancestry, or to this database, contact me direct and I will send you images. Ancestry is one data provider that (for the moment at least) positively encourages this kind of "sharing"!
