    1. Re: [WLS-PEM] FARRANT, Albert - c.1900 - Pembroke Dock area...

    3. Hi Roland This is really difficult - so I started thinking outside the square..... There seems to be a couple of families in MONMOUTH in 1901! Here is the one with Albert - they are all living together: Mary Farrant 2 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Albert Farrant 7 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Betrice Farrant 10 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Cienwon Farrant 12 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Maria Farrant 14 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale George Farrant 20 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Coal Hewer Henry Farrant 23 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Coal Hewer Job Farrant 48 England N K Monmouth Ebbwvale Coal Hewer John Farrant 21 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale Coal Hewer Sarah Farrant 23 Monmouth Cwm Monmouth Ebbwvale If this is the correct Albert - he would be old enough to have had a son in 1917 - and called him Albert william FARRANT. You need to look up the actual census entry to see the relationships - Job may be the father I have more information on this family although I can't find John 21, Henry 23, or George 20, in 1881 yet ( not showing as born in MON anyway ! ) Births Sep 1875 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Farrant Maria Jane Pontypridd 11a 370 this looks like Job FARRANT in 1881 but the age is wrong !!: Household: Name Relation Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation Disability Frederick G.

    2. Hello Pembrokeshire listers, I want to thank all interested parties who answered my general query about the surname Morse in Pembrokeshire. I was hoping to have had more specific information on Friday, i.e. yesterday, but it was not forthcoming. There is a relative on holiday, so it will have to wait until his return. I have answered some already, but have not managed all. Lack of time being the reason, not of lack of interest. Gerry, I shall be back. Thank you so much for the rundown on the number of Morse families in different districts of Pembrokeshire. Until more information turns up, I wish you all a very happy weekend. Regards, Maureen Jenkins Upper Rhondda

    2. Hi Mark Sorry!! I got a bit carried away there - I'll go and rest my brain and maybe someone will come up with something sensible for you. Seriously though if I were you I'd probably try looking for Albert (the elder's) marriage, that way at least you should have an age for him and his father's name and you could try looking for them on the 1901 census. Best wishes Sandra Markie <mark.kirbys@btinternet.com> wrote: Hi Sandra .... Many thanks for this.. If Albert died in 1979 aged 62 then he would have been born in 1917 ?? This Albert is more likely to be the Albert I listed amongst Albert FARRANTs children. I know that Albert was Albert's eldest son so this does tie-in? From this we might also reasonably say that Albert (the elder) was probably born before 1900. Any more ideas?

Hello Mark There is an Albert William FARRANT listed on http://www.remembranceonline.co.uk/parcgwyn/ as having died in 1979 aged 62. If this is the one you're looking for then that would give him a birth year of approx 1907 which isn't far out of your estimation. That year is searchable on the downloadable indexes on Freebmd.

Hi Listers I know this a long shot but could some kind person (if they have a spare moment)try to find a John James born 24 7 1860,his fathers name was William James ,mothers name not known.I am afraid i donot know which part of Pembrokeshire they came from.In the family bible he wrote he came from Pembrokeshire but on the 1881 census he put his place of birth as Swansea,but then on the 1891 and the 1901 he put it down as Pembrokeshire so iam taking the first one as the correct one. best regards to all alvina alvinarichards@hotmail.co.uk _________________________________________________________________ Use MSN Messenger to send music and pics to your friends http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger

I already know that my late aunt and uncle, Frank and Alice PENNEY, cremated at Narberth in 1975 and 1976, have entries in the Book of Remembrance. To test the on-line database, I first conducted a search for Alice PENNEY but much to my surprise, received a negative result. I then searched for and found Frank PENNEY. I eventually discovered that my Aunt Alice is entered with a misspelt surname, PENNY. So failure to find an individual could be for one of at least four reasons: 1. He or she was not cremated at Narberth. 2. He or she was cremated at Narberth but does not have an entry in the Book of Remembrance. 3. The entry in the Book of Remembrance is misspelt. 4. The name in the Book of Remembrance was incorrectly transcribed into the search index. Nevertheless, as Pat says, the facility is a useful one.

All I have at the moment is, that a family carrying the surname Morse from Pembrokeshire, will be at the centre of the enquiry when it presents itself. At this moment, I suppose I am just wondering just how many, or how few, Morse families I will be searching for. If this is too vague, then please accept my apologies for this initial outburst. I will be back perhaps within a week.
