Could someone please help with my SPENCER ancestors? My gr-gr-grandfather, Thomas Martin Spencer, was born on 10 November 1792 in Coventry, and his mother's name was Mary Spencer. His father may have been Charles Spencer or John Spencer or James Spencer. They may have been bakers or confectioners (sugar bakers, as confectioners were called at that time.). If anyone has a clue, I'll be grateful for any information. Mary Jane Phillips

Hello Carole, Thanks for taking the trouble to look on the BMD index, there is another entry there at the same time: John O Brookes Mothers maiden name - JACKSON Registered Jan-Mar 1914 Coventry 6d 1378 This is the one I have been working on although I have not found them on the 1901 census yet

Hi list. A question, if I move to a new area in 1860 and say my name is Joe Bloggs and this is my family ... and ... Do I have to prove it? what do I have to prove it? is it just generally accepted that I'm not a liar and that my name is Joe Bloggs , I may have some papers but I can't read or write so is that proof ? Reason for the question is that I have a Thomas Archer TOWELL b 1809 in Bawdeswell Norfolk, in 1848 using full name m Rebecca BUTCHER in Coventry. In 1851 and on the wedding of step daughter Maria KEENE in 1860 he drops the Towell and is just Thomas ARCHER, but on the 1861 he drops the Archer as does Rebecca his wife so he is now Thomas Towell. 1871 don't know yet but on the 81 he's Thomas Towell again. Was it possible in those days just to switch identity at will ? Cheers for now Gareth

I have recently run into the problem of indexing or accessing electoral roll for years pre 1950, we are [well was] indexing all the WW2 + people living in hostels, but since the new rules have come out we are no longer allowed to copy these [photocopy that is], you can still transcribe them but not photocopy so you can transcribe at home?] Anyway, for the dates requested you may well run into a closed book, as you are not related too the person etc etc. Suggest you do a quick Google for the local BBc radio station and get in touch with them it sounds like a good story they may wish to pick up John John Russell www.covkid.org.uk www.virtualmuseum.co.uk

Hello I had a look on the BMD index - are you talking about this entry? John Brookes Mother's maiden name - ONIONS Registered Jan-Mar 1914 Birmingham ref 6d 301 If so then with the information you have given from the certificate it would appear that his mother was born Harriet Ellen Onions then she married for the first time to a Mr Jackson. Then either widowed or divorce and married for a second time to a Mr Brookes. This doesn't help find the name of his father but you could try find Harriet's two marriages. Have you found her on the 1901 census?

As drover54 (sorry you didn't leave a name!) pointed out off list, I didn't give John's parents names. They are, I think, William and Sarah Grantham. The Charles that you sent me 'drover' would appear to be John Thomas's brother, who died before John was born, according to the page you sent.

In a message dated 8/1/2007 8:52:05 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, wendy.boland@bigpond.com writes: We may be able to help you further if you give us more details. e.g. Do you know approx when he died- wife's forename, any children - year of marriage etc etc Thank you Wendy, Well in re-reading that old letter I was mistaken he is mentioned like this: "Sarah Goldrings husband was Lord William H Goldring he was an great hunter and was killed." William H. Goldring Possible DOB 17 July 1804 South Hayling Hampshire died before the 1841 census. He was married to Sarah (?) Had one child Caroline Althea Goldring (Robbins). Sarah and Caroline are on the 1851 census in Warwick. However Sarah is the widow of Henry Gibbons by 1851. She and Henry are on the 1841 census with Caroline so that is how I come to believe he (William) died before 1841. Caroline Goldring was married under the name Gibbons in 1849 in Coventry and died in 1858 in Lemington (age 33) Her husband was James Robbins of Morton Morrell Warwick. James Robbins came to the US (1860) with his 4 children and his mother-in-law Sarah (?) who died in Utah in 1873. The letter I have was written by one of the 4 children about her family in England, but no where mentions Sarah's maiden name. I have searched for marriage for William and Sarah with no luck. I also cannot find Caroline's birth information. I have her death certificate. I have Ancestry and Pigots Directory's Warwickshire 1828, 1835. I would appreciate any help al all.

Greetings one and all who click onto this message. I'm researching this family again after a long break from them and am wondering if anyone out there has the same family on their list of names. Mine (my husbands really - but you get so involved in them you forget they're not on your side) lot are from the Castle Bromwich area. Lots of gaps of course as its not that uncommon a name and the area is riddled with closeby parishes. Check out my Hortons at http://AdeInNelson.com/index.html . If you are researching other Hortons close by I'm more than happy to add your contact details and research interests - I usually just do a direct link to your email address so it isn't just written there. Cheers Adrienne (yes - a primary school teacher - hence the subject title)

Greetings fellow listers. It's been a while since researching in this county, but the breakthrough has been made (I'm sure) and there is now a new family to trace! The Masser - originally Mercer family - were around the Shustoke area for a few of generations in the mid to late 1600s and early 1700s before some moved to Mancetter. I would very much like to contact others working on this family. Also I am wondering if there is anyone out there with access to parish records for Shustoke, Mancetter or surrounding parishes. I am unable to order film myself as I travel around remote areas of NZ filling in for principals on extended leave or schools between principals. I'm not just a taker, I do my bit by having an extensive website not only with pages of my families but with numerous photographs of old churches and schools or towns in NZ - and some British churches as well.I have web pages with local data and am presently preparing data to put online from old school registers. Do check out my website at http://AdeInNelson.com/index.html. Other names I'm researching in Warwickshire include BOLTER, BOULTER - Loxley area. KINZETT - Kineton area STRINGER, STRINGAR - Mancetter area GILBERT - Water Orton - Curdworth area HORTON - Castle Bromwich area Cheers Adrienne

I have a very old letter and my 3rd great grandfather is talked about as Sir William Goldring. I says he was a great hunter and was killed on a hunt. Would the Sir indicate that he may have been Knighted? He was born in 1804 in Hampshire but I believe he lived, married and died in Warwick. Any help with this would be appreciated, as he has proven to be a real problem to find.
