Dear Gardener, Brilliant work indeed. I've passed this on to the other people in the family that are interested. I wish there was some way I could thank you for all this. It takes someone new to look at things. Your skill and tenacity are most appreciated. Kind Regards Keefypops

Hi, A big thank you to Gardener for adding this information. I was not sure how much to put in the first posting and am grateful for this. Several members of my wife's family have been trying to find the illusive" FBL" for quite some time. We think he had moved away from the family well be...

Hi, I'm wondering if someone can help me on this one please? This man ( my wife's g grandfather) was born in 1838 in Bath, married 1865, had children and was last recorded on a census in 1881 as a Solicitor in Kingston. He features in 1885 in a Kelly's directory in Southampton in a village called Ha...

Thanks to everyone for the time they have spent on this one!
If I get any response from the RO I will get back to you.
Kind regards

Thanks mallossa. It seems that in the mid nineteenth century there seems to have been more consistent approach to spelling the name Loines rather than the earlier versions. I'm not quite sure why,perhaps a teacher influenced the spelling when people started to learn to read and write. My grandfather...

Hi, I have emailed the records office in the vain hope that some kind soul could will confirm that the Death Register is extant and where it is, given the boundary change in the same decade. I have asked if they could confirm the date of death reported. There is no point getting another copy as clea...

I'm pretty confident that a Benjamin Loines ended up in Lancashire as did several of the" Loines/Loyns/Lines et al" people.
My grandfather recalled a Ben Loines working at one of the large estates there presumably as a coachman.

Hi Peterd, Thank you for all your helpful comments and in particular the last one.Rather sad to think after a lifetimes work as a Nailer his estate was less than £20 I Another point that I think might be relevant..... The 1805 marriage was at Edgbaston? and ? by licence ( presumably in view of the s...

Whilst going through my old papers I noted Amphlett had commented about Martha's baptism.... ( one of the three illegitimate children) " Charles and Samuel Boughton were bound in the sum of £40 to the Officers of Clent to indemnify the parishioners against Elizabeth Lines bastard child." I...

Informant: Jane Shilvock, Lower Clent REgistered death 06 Feb 1843 This seems to agree the Amphlett details from the gravestone he saw over 100 years ago where he no...

Hi , I have searched high and low and can't find my copy of the 1843 death info. My cousin may have a copy and I am awaiting a response to an email to him. As I remember it wasn't particularly clear anyway. I haven't seen the gravestone or MI, all I have is what has been provided ex Amplett ( Worces...
