Dear Listers I wonder if anyone has a copy or access to the 1819 London Post Office Directory. I do have an Ancestry subscription but unfortunately the image for the page I need is missing (they have Image 182 Pages 356/357 and Image 183 Pages 360/361 ) and despite several reports to them it has not been added. The pages I am after are 358/359 for the entries under the surname Warne. If anyone is able to let me know what entries appear for the name WARNE I would be really really grateful.

William Bennett, born 1757 at Sheffield and apprenticed to a table knife manufacturer there, went to the Carolinas but evacuated as a Loyalist at the end of the Revolution with his sons Charles and Marshal. He went to the Mosquito Shore and then on to Belize, where his brothers were merchants, but returned to England and set up in business as a hardware man at "Ipswich Arms," Cullum St., Fenchurch St., London, and died there. He was buried in the North Church Yard 11 Mar 1804. Is there a tombstone with MI? I searched for his will at the PRO (now the BNA) without success, and also asked at the Guildhall without success. Does anyone know where his will might have been probated? Appreciate your help! Sonia in the U.S.

I am hoping fellow listers might be able to suggest avenues I can explore. According to his Australian death certificate, my ancestor WILLIAM CRESWELL MARTIN (a miner) was born in London abt 1832 and emigrated to Australia abt 1852. He does not appear to have married in Australia but did raise a family here with RUTH PETTIT who emigrated separately from Chrishall, Essex and had previously married (in Australia) with 2 issue. William's death certificate states his parents as Bartholomew Martin (a cooper) and Bridget (maiden name not known). The issue of William and Ruth were Thomas William, Jane, Elizabeth, James Garraty, Elizabeth and Edward. I realise the name William Martin could be quite common, but had hopes that his middle name Creswell (or Cresswell) and his son's middle name Garraty? might provide some clues. And I query that his parents names Bartholomew and Bridget were not carried through? Any suggestions would be much appreciated :) Regards, Jane (Australia)

Hi Jane, I've looked for William Martin and his parents Bartholomew and Bridget in the 1841 & 1851 censuses and in the London baptisms & deaths but can't find any trace of any of them. Also had a look for a William Cresswell but again, no luck. There were some William entries in the 1851 census - two who were servants and two who were in different workhouses in London but there is no certainty any of these are your particular one.

Dear Listers, Can anybody help me break down my "brickwall" of many years? My JAMES HOLDER has gone missing. James was born 10/6/1853 at 5 Oak St. Limehouse.London.England His family was at :- 1851 census Piece/Folio 1554/430 Limehouse 1861 census 302/124 Poplar 1871 census 570/121 Poplar 1881 census 507/91 Poplar 1891 census 1340/159 East Ham Although I have full details on the rest of the family, I can find no trace of James after the 1891 census. I have purchased Death Certs for James died 1/1892 Greenwich, James 1/1917 Reigate and James died 3/1926 Kensington but none were correct. No trace of him on the UK departures Passenger Lists 1890 onwards. I am hoping that someone with a fresh approach,can find him.Even a "no can't find him" would be of help :) Thank you Vic Holder in West Aussie

Hi Vic. I guess you have checked under HOLDEN a more common name and easily misread??? He seems to be moving out eastwards, so I would check Essex first.There is a James Holder or Holden living in Waltham Abbey in 1901 with a sister Emily?? Birthplace not right but people Lie!!!

Hi Nirvard, I suspected his name was DONOHUE but noted that on the will the Davis had been added to Susannah's name as well. Her father, William Dilling died in 1868. He obviously thought Samuel and Susannah were still in London in 1865 and the name appears to be spelt DONEHOE in the will. I think this is one couple that will be challenging to track down with a name that changes spelling every time it is written! At least I have made a little progress getting his father's name and occupation!

Hi Anne The names strike me as probably Irish I would say his name was Samuel Davis DONOHUE rather than DAVIS DONOHUE although it looks like DONOHOE on the marriage cert He is listed as a widower on his marriage to Susannah DILLING Her father is William DILLING a general dealer and his a Matthew DONOHOE a farmer I don't see an entry in the probate calendars for 1865 for a William DILLING or was it probated another year? One of the witnesses was a William COYLE another Irish name There is a Samuel DONOHOUGH aged 21 in the 1851 ib Spitalfields born Ireland Apart from that no other sightings Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hi All, > > I am trying to track down the couple mentioned above.

Hi All, I am trying to track down the couple mentioned above. Susannah DILLING married Samuel DAVIS DONAHUE in Sep q 1857 in Islington. They are mentioned as Susannah Davis Donehoe, wife of Samuel Davis Donehoe of London, in her father's Will written in 1865 but that is the last I have managed to find about them. I have tried searching the 1861 census on FindMyPast using any combination of name, age and birthplace I can think of and the nearest I got was a couple listed as Samuel and Susan DAUR, which could be a mistranscription of Davis, both born Hampshire in abt 1831. Any suggestions gratefully received! Regards, Anne Mountifield

They all appear in the 1871 census and James was alive.

I am new to this list and am looking for BURROUGHS in the TOWER HAMLETS area at the end of the 18th century.

Thank you all for your helpful comments: 1. Sarah Ann CURLINE and her marriage to George WILD in 1853. With this knowledge I was then able to find their deaths here in Dunedin, NZ 2. Ann Sophia RILEY (nee DURANT formerly CURLINE). It appears Ann Sophia RILEY was possibly widowed (for a 2nd time) about 1859 or 1860 with the death of her husband James RILEY, glass silverer. Are there Cememtery records for Holborn area for this time period? I am making what I hope is a sensible conclusion that Ann Sophia RILEY and her daughter Mary Ann RILEY went back to the CURLINE surname and followed Ann's son to NZ in 1866. Again many thanks all those who emailed me. Regards Jennifer HUDSON Dunedin NZ
