Hi folks, I don’t know if anyone out there is researching this gentleman? the only reference I have to him so far is his marriage to Fanny NIXEY in 1873 at Marylebone. His father is said to be Edward Slade. So far I have been unable to find Eli in the censuses with a wife Fanny/Frances, or with a father Edward. If anyone can help, I’d really appreciate it. this isn’t the first time I’ve tried digging up info on Eli, and I’m getting the same lack of results as previously. Kindest regards to all, Jon

I've tried census and migration records on Ancestry but not finding any clear records for them. F*an* does search ancestry and finds Fanny and Frances (also Frank and Francis of course) Perhaps these are Fanny 1871 Fanny Nixey abt 1845 St Giles, Middlesex, England Inmate Paddington, London 1861 Fanny Nixey abt 1841 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Servant St Marylebone, Middlesex Looks like place born the old default where living Perhaps his birth - age similar with the Fanny as above Eli Slade Oct-Nov-Dec 1840 Williton Somerset Ron Lankshear -Sydney NSW (from London-Shepherds Bush/Chiswick) try my links http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lankshear/ On 2011-07-18 11:45 PM, Jon's FH wrote: > I don’t know if anyone out there is researching this gentleman? the only reference I have to him so far is his marriage to Fanny NIXEY in 1873 at Marylebone.
