Forgot to say thanks to you both! Have been a bit busy lately and haven't done much Family History stuff!

Hi just found this thread and it brings back happy memories of waiting on a Friday for Charlie our Milkman, who always had on a cap, and a ciggie on the go. Our number was 300399 - like everyone else etched in my brain, never to be forgotten. And we always drank sterilised milk, never any other...

Hi Shera, Sorry to bother you again. I wondered if you could look up for me a George Hadley or a Mary Hadley who I believe died betweem 1812 and 1839 - sorry it is such a wide span but I can't narrow it down any further. They were born about 1760 I did send for the first St Martin CD and...

Yes it does, thanks very much Shera.

Hi Shera Thanks again. I didn't know you could do that - I must read instructions some time!! Like you I guess she may have died. I have checked on the IGI and there does not appear to be any other Whorton, so I guess the spelling may be incorrect as well The only problem now is that...

Hi Shera, Sorry to bombard you with questions - but this may be the last for a little while as i must do some other stuff!! But I've looked on the IGI for births for Elizabeth Worton baptised at St Martins, and they have two down - the first on the 16th Oct 1781, and the second on the 28th...

Hi Shera Thanks again for the info. That marriage looks a good possibility, so I'll put it down as requiring more investigation!!! I have been looking at the CDs from the BMSGH, and at the ones from St Martins which come on several CDs. Obviously Part One covers 1554 - 1822 for Births deaths...

Hi Mike Sorry forgot to thank you for your post, as you can see from above reply, I think the St Martin Richard Chatwin is the wrong one - was his birth date given as 1784 on the NBI - if it is I think it will clear that question up? I've never seen the NBI only the posts on Find My Past, so...

Hi Shera Thanks for your reply. I think the Chatwins you looked up are not my ancestors, but the other possibility I have, who was baptised in St Phillips in 1782 and was buried in 1831 at St Peters, where his son was also baptised and married. So I'll try and look up some of those!! Re...

Hi Mike Is it possible for you to tell me what church Teresa Chatwin was buried at in 1815? Thanks

Hi Shera, again Can you look up any details on the following baptisms for me: 3.6.1784 - Richard Chatwin 16.4.1759 - Thomas Chatwin 28.12.1807 - Thomas Fox. By the way the post you did on the Bashfords the other day was also of interest to me as i have Bashfords in my direct line as well...

Many thanks again.

Hi Shera According to the IGI there are two births registered to George and Martha for a son called Joseph - the one in 1813 you found and the one in 1816 that the name was hard to read. I wondered if the first had died and they named the next son the same name, which I believe was quite...

Could you also look up the marriage of my 3rd Great grandfather George Hadley to Mary Adams. They got married on the 5th Nov 1786 according to the IGI. Is there any other information on the marriage info as I am at a dead end with both of them. Thanks

Like you I was a bit disappointed the first time I contacted them as I had no reply, but this time Dave has been brilliant replying straight away. I know he is not there all the time, and he may have been away on hols or sick. If you didn't get all the info you wanted then please contact him...

Hi Thanks again for the prompt reply - can I just check that it does actually give the name as George Evans Cooper Lawley? - not just George Lawley? Thanks

HI again I've also got down a first born for George and Martha details as below from IGI. Does it say anything else on the baptism record? I know where the Cooper comes from as its Marthas maiden name but know nothing about the Evans bit? 22. GEORGE EVANS COOPER LAWLEY - International...

Also thanks Shera - I had no info on Roberts brothers and sisters or where he lived so this info is just fabulous. I did know George was a cordwainer, but had to look up what that was originally!!

Jo Thank you very much for your very kind offer, but Dave has been back in touch and has found the records of my 2x Great Grandfather who was one of the first policemen in Birmingham and a bit of a lad by all accounts. Dave has been very helpful and is sending me a copy of 3 records he has found...

Also thanks Shera - I had no info on Roberts brothers and sisters or where he lived so this info is just fabulous. I did know George was a cordwainer, but had to look up what that was originally!!
