Thanks Anne I have had no dealings with Cumberland so had no idea of the places there , I used to use the gazetteer on old maps but they have mucked about with the site to the point where its unusable now I thought it said Working as well but could not find anything like it They are proving to be quite elusive Thanks again Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Cumberland > might it be Working *(ton) *hidden under the clerk's mark ? > It could be either 31 ior 37, I'd go for the former > > Anne > South Australia > > Nivard Ovington wrote: >> Hi all >> >> I wonder if anyone would cast their eye over the following 1851 entry >> >> Name: Joseph Lock >> Age: 31 >> Estimated birth year: abt 1820 >> Relation: Head >> Spouse's name: Francis D >> Gender: Male >> Where born: Wookey, Cumberland, England

Hi all I wonder if anyone would cast their eye over the following 1851 entry Name: Joseph Lock Age: 31 Estimated birth year: abt 1820 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Francis D Gender: Male Where born: Wookey, Cumberland, England Civil parish: St Marylebone Ecclesiastical parish: Christchurch County/Island: Middlesex Country: England Registration district: Marylebone Sub-registration district: St John ED, institution, or vessel: 4 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 83 Household Members: Name Age Joseph Lock 31 Francis D Lock 36 HO107; Piece: 1491; Folio: 132; Page: 15; GSU roll: 87819-87820. I am trying to decipher the birth place of Joseph I think the age of Joseph LOCK is 37 on the page rather than 31 frances Dorothy (nee HAYLOCK) was born in West Wratting Cambridgeshire I have their marriage as follows 1850 Marriage solemnized at St Marys Church in the Parish of St Marylebone in the County of Middlesex October 31st 1850 Joseph Locke of full age bachelor Stonemason 13 Earl Street Simon Locke Stonemason Frances Dorothy Haylock of full age spinster -- 14 Adam St West Edward Haylock (dec) Gentleman By Banns Both signed Witnesses George Wadwick? & John Haylock & Constantine Whittinman? I can find no trace of them after 1851 , they may have emigrated as many of the family did , mostly New Zealand and Australia Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)
Hi Nivard I am sure the first letter of the pob is a W - compare the first letter of the pob a few lines down, which I read as Wokingham. I thnik Anne's suggestion of Workington is spot on. But I agree with you that the age is 37 vice 31. Lawrence
Hello, Since I do not have an account, could anybody please help me by looking up a Middlesex ancestor of mine on ancestry?

I'll hit Ancestry hard for everything I want/need, then unsub again before the month is up. It works out more cost effective because I have and account with FMP. Have you checked with your local library to see if they have Ancestry Library Edition? That works out even more cost effective if they have. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Greinton and Clutton, SOM Asst OPC for Ashcott and Shapwick, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk

I am trying to discover a little more about my Dad's profession. In the 1930's he was a furrier working in the East End of London for a fur trader. I think the company he worked for may have been called Gulcott or Gulcock & Levy. They produced fur coats / stoles / collars etc. and I believe that is where he may have met his wife (my Mum) who worked as a fur liner. The company was bombed out during the 2nd world war and thus my Dad's profession came to a complete finish. He must have found it very difficult to find another job thereafter but although he never returned full time to his profession, he always carried out fur coat repairs and re-stylings. I remember many an evening when he would be nailing basic animal skins to a large board in order to stretch and shape them in order for him to cut them to a pattern. He would then go to his special fur sewing machine to sew up the skins. I still have the machine in my loft!! As usual, I wish I had asked him a few more questions about the original company he worked for..... If anyone has any information I would be very grateful to hear from them. Many thanks. WS
Well, fellow Listers, your really are a very helpful group of people and your combined suggestions must lead to a breakthrough for me in my quest to confirm Duncan D. Robertson as my grandfather. Thank you to Maria, Charani, Janelle, Dorothy, Jan, Tony, Irene and Barbara. Rest assured I shall act on all your suggestions and when there is something to report I'll get back to you. I am very grateful for your input and wish you all "Happy Ancestor Hunting" Regards, Julian
Glenys, Pallot's Index shows the marriage as John Philip SOMERSALL to Mary Ann THOMPSON in 1833 at Hackney. However, the image of the marriage register (via Ancestry's London Marriages database) shows that George (not John) Philip SOMERSALL, bachelor, married Mary Ann THOMPSON, spinster, both of the parish, on 27 June 1833 at St John at Hackney (after banns). Witnesses were William JACKSON and Mary ASTON?. All parties signed.

Any help or advice will be much appreciated. Regards Sheila NSW

Hi Margaret If you go to google maps, enter 19 Windmill Road Brentford and on the subsequent map, drag the small yellow man onto the map where it shows the red A, you can then take a virtual walk up the street in street view It would appear numbers 19 to 23 no longer exist , I can see a number 17 and a 25 but nothing between, the site looks like its been redeveloped Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hello, > > I was wondering if anyone lives on or near Windmill Road in Brentford and > could tell me if # 19 Windmill Road is still standing?
