Hi, Trying to trace my paternal line of the Huzzards.

PLEASE Can anyone do lookups for me for George Huzzard, unsure of dob but died prior to 1929 when my grandparents(Benjamin Huzzard and Henrietta Byers) married. George was a shoe/boot repairer, lived in Middlesbrough but came from Hull.

Also a lookup for George's grandfather believed to be Gorbert Huzzard (b1801, Hull) and believed to have a livery stable. Gorbert could be the son of Ann Uzard/Huzard/Huzzard, b 1775 in Flamborough.

Any information is GREATLY appreciated and I thank you in advance for your kindness!

You are going to have to get some certificates as I don't think this family go back to Gobert.



This marriage cert will give you William's fathers name.

Many, many thanks - I will print them all out and sort it out in my head. You are right - I need to send for a marriage certificate for William which will give his fathers name. Thanks for the tip.

If the 1861 census I found is your William Huzzard born 1856, his father was William born c1833. So I think his parents are this family. Cerificates would prove this though.

Hi Christine,

Once again, I am so indebted to you - I completely forgot about the Free BMD and will check out the Family Search Church Records too. Feeling like I am totally getting somewhere now, thanks to you. Will now send off for some certificates now that I have references. I sent off for Benjamins birth certificate and marriage certificate through Tees Valley Indexes, will have a look to see if they go back as far as I need!

Take care,

Carole

Hi Christine in Portugal,

One more page to print off, thank you. I think that Hull area is FULL of our Huzzards - I remember when I first started my research there was a Huzzard descendent on my hot matches list who said we were all descendent from Cesar (sp) Huzzard in Hull??!!!

How long have you lived in Portugal?? I hear it's wonderful... I would love to be in a warmer climate right now, although our October/November so far have been way warmer than usual. Ilive in Campbell River, on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada - we emigrated to Canada (N. Alberta first - the tarsands company in Fort McMurray for 12 years - brrr the winters were soooo cold), then moved here in 1990. Still miss my family... try to get back to England to see my mum and sisters/brother and all when I can - was back in May of this year for a big reunion of my mum's family, the Laings. I found mam's longlost cousin in America (long story.. mam's grandfather flew the coop in 1909 with his "wife" and had another family there!). It was sooo much work putting together the family research book I presented mam with for her 75th birthday, and surprised her with the reunion party, and the American cousin came for a week (mam had no idea... it was amazing!). We still keep in touch and the cousin wants me to go and visit her in North Carolina. It was strange the way she was just "family" right away, we all loved her. It felt wonderful to finally give mam the answer to all her questions of what happened to her grandfather.

Anyway, after all that research, had 6 months off - now am back with the Huzzards!! Hope it doesn't take over my life like last time - I burned the early-hour oil a lot!!! Nothing much got done around the house hahaha.. it cost me a FORTUNE to do it too, with memberships, credits, etc.. so thought I would try and cut down this time around.. thanks to you and a couple more I can do that! x

Bye for now,

Carole

Hi Christine,

This marriage entry set me off looking for George's marriage to Eliza Smith on FreeBMD... found Eliza Smith in Burnley, and a few Elizabeth Smiths in Whitby and York... I tried typing in the vol and no. info from Eliza's/Elizabeth's entry, but could not find George - thinking that they weren't married... but then found a message received from Margaret Manson on the Huzzard thread:

Huzzard, George, Age 22
Wife: Eliza Smith, Age 23
Marriage Date: 11 Apr 1898
Recorded in: Linthorpe (that is in Middlesbrough!), Yorkshire, England
Husband's father: William Huzzad
Wife's father: George Samuel Smith
Source: FHL Film 1546299 Dates 1897 - 1901

So I guess they were married. Eliza MUST have married again (Mennell)? Margaret found the entry on "BVRI" - I googled BVRI, found a site, but couldn't do a search (think I had to pay something like 90 pounds for a membership? Have you heard of this site?

Regards,

Carole

Hi Carole,

I don't know what you mean about Eliza must have married again (Mennell)

Margaret gave you full details from the BVRI discs, I gave you the entry from Free BMD, which was the Jun qtr. Middlesbro.

It's much easier to look for the marriage under the least common surname, then when you find a likely one click on the vol number and it brings up the other people listed on the same page.

As you now have their father's details maybe you don't need the cert.

Have to sign off now, it's getting late.

sorry... I meant that Eliza (Smith) married George Huzzard, then, perhaps married a Mennell (hence George William Huzzard, b 1899 (who was Benjamins brother and Georges son..) gave Eliza MENNELL as his next of kin (his mom who had married again...) - make sense?? I have been very sick over the past 3 days with a stinking cold, throat infection and ear infection and still getting over it - thick head to say the least - on antibiotics, that's my excuse for any stupid statements, haha.

Night-night.

Morning Christine!

Yes, I spent quite a long time last night trying to find George's death too on Freebmd. I am going to have a look at Tees Valley Indexes now. So Benjamin (grandad) was only 4 years old when his mom married again. He probably didn't remember his father at all. I have been in contact with Andrew Huzzard (my dad's cousin Colin's son) and Colin told Andrew that (Colin's) grandfather had died when (Colin's) father was very young and he didn't remember him. Fits.

Many thanks.

Bye for now,

Carole
