Hi Michelle,

Thank you very much for helping :-D

I am only stuck on the Palmer side. I have been searching for the Palmers for 4 years and cant seem to find them in any census record apart from 1901, baptism records and marriage record which is very frustrating!!

Thank you for helping

What a wonderful surprise --- and how late you worked at that -- that brilliant

thank you so much ---

If you have no other inquiries ... or a slack moment ---- would really really appreciate knowing what happened to Henry

As you have sorted all the others out --- if not don't worry

By the way I looked a few weeks ago at some trees on ANC -- some have John Horlock ( from correct parents dying in USA ) and no one but no one ( even alot of trees here ) know that Louisa Fox -- was baptised Elizabeth ( or Eliza from FS ) -- from the correct father and mother --- except me and thee

Well done Michelle

By the by -- it was Ada Jane Turner -- you found --- her husband put his birthplace against her name and vice versa on the census --

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Looking at the possible marriage of 1846 which was April 19th of that year. I would say it's likely that John died in 1844. There is a death also in 1846 of a John Horlock but this for last quarter of the year of which Louisa married.

Yes thanks Henry ---- I will have a look to see if Elizabeth had a middle name


My Grannys sister Evelyn married in to this Fox line ( Phillip Fox and Sarah Jesty ) ---- their mother was a Parsons ( who died young in childbirth ) --- two of her Parsons sisters and one brother - also married this branch of Fox --- and another Parsons sister had a base born Fox son --- who later married a Turner ---- my Granny and Evelyn father Turner line

Actually Michelle -- think you found Evelyn --- married Charle Fox -- or it may have Been her sister Ada Jane --- anyway one of the sisters

And I am still searching for her only brother Frederick ---- although I may have found his death ¿¿¿¿

Yes please and any thing on Henry

I think the odds of a John Horlock marrying two Fox girls -- Louisa first - them Eliza - having one child with Louisa and then two with Eliza --

and where was Samuel/Lemuel in 1861

Many Many thanks

Funny i just found the Fox one also and was looking for the link, as i did not know Eliza's maiden name.

Wow what a mix up!! I also think John was dead between 1841-1851. I did rule out 1 of the deaths. Eliza now we have these other names, could be under them for a death.
Spelling was always a problem on the census records as well as the baptism/marriage records.

Would you like me to look for more on Martha?
