Many thanks to Lin and Marg for their replies. Robert’s brother, Charles William is my grandfather and I’m not too bad with his history.

The marriage transcript (on Ancestry) gives his place of residence as Wilsthorpe (which is near Bridlington) and gives his birth year as 1762. I cannot find him on any census. The only Francis born Routh that I can find is his son Francis born 1791 (baptism on LDS) , who was living Sculcoates in 1851 and I think that the 1860 death that of Francis, the son. You probably know that Family Search has six baptisms at Routh with Francis as father between 1791 and 1802. There is also one with a Francis as father for William, baptised 1797 at Bridlington which does give a mother's name, maybe he was married before? If you have access to Find my past they have entry for a Francis MONKMAN died 1799 Bridlington in the York Probate Index with a link for you to order a copy (have no idea what you get for this payment). There is a third quarter 1837 death index record for an Ann MONKMAN at Bridlington which may his widow.

Hi Trish, The only clue is that my gt.grandfather went to Philadelphia & Herbert was a mill worker when in England so presumably he would carry on that job in the USA. Over the years I have found Herberts working on ships, as a mechanic, working in Boston etc etc - really was a common name & knowing only too well that changing names & ages was very easy. I had hoped that he came to New Zealand as both his sisters did. I tried to find my gt.grandfather's Will at Borthwick but it seems he didn't make one because I was hoping that Herbert would be mentioned in that. Many years ago a woman in Auckland that was a relation of my gt.aunt Jane told me that no-one ever heard of Herbert after he left England. Canada has also been a possibility, another story was he went to Mexico.???? Really is the proverbial brick wall. Many thanks for the offer & advise. Asking for a certificate I would have to give an approximate year of marriage & I wouldn't have a clue about that either. I keep waiting for someone, somewhere will be researching the Robinson lot & descend from my missing Herbert.

Hi Marjorie Thanks for posting. A quick question. When and where was David born? Lin On 4 February 2015, at 05:33, Marjorie Hennessey <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Lin, Thanks for the nudge. I have a couple of brick walls, one is finding where my gr-gr-grandfather, David Naylor, was during the 1851 census. His wife, Elizabeth, was at her parents home in Broughton, parish of Appleton-le-Street, North Yorkshire, with their 3 mo. old daughter, Hannah. Her occupation is listed as blacksmith's wife. Hannah was born in the city of York so I am assuming that is where their actual place of residence was and that she was visiting her parents at the time of the census. Could it be possible David was at his place of employment when the census was taken or an apprentice under someone else, or maybe even shoeing a horse at someone's farm, or some other scenerio? One other quick question. What was the age of majority for marriage in 1840? Was it 25? My other gr-gr-grandmother was listed as a minor at her first marriage in 1840 but gave her age as 38 at her second marriage in 1854. Thank you for any help.

On my dad's birth certificate it states that he was born at 29 St Pauls Street Huddersfield, in 1923, and that his father was a miner. When I check on Google Earth I see that it says that 29 St Pauls Street is shown as a building belong to the Yorkshire Regiment. To me it looks as though it has been there a long time and always belonged to the Yorkshire Regiment. My grandad was in the army starting as a drummer boy in the Boer War but was discharged in 1919, I know that he also joined up again at the beginning of World War II. Can anyone tell me if those buildings would have been built after 1923, or if they were built before does anyone have any ideas as to why my grandma should have put down that my dad was born there. Thank you - June
