Find Ancestors

Zoe it is not helpful to have information duplicated. All you need to do is nudge your thread up buy asking further questions if you need help.

i am sorry this seems to have upset you Rose, I don't know what else to do and I am checking on all threads, he has been found in the 1911 census working at the hospital as a porter, single born 1873 rochester.
thanks for your help

You've got to be kidding!

Zoe,

The least you could have done was to point out a lot of this had been covered before.

Rose

Note that this is the second thread for James Hawkins.

A lot of stuff was found on the previous thread

If he joined the Royal Navy you might be able to find his Naval record on the National Archives site. It might be one of the downloadable ones which would cost £3.50.

Hi,
I cant find him on any other census' either, it was said he went to sea t the age of 13 after his parents diedl i dont know if that helps x

I'm not seeing a James Hawkins born in Rochester on any of the other censuses.

There's only one Henry Andrew Hawkins on Ancestry but he was from Hampshire/Surrey and there's no James with him.

Rose

hi,
it just says he married Rosina Twyman aged 46 and she was 24 in sheffield, 1917
he was a bachelor and she was a spinster.
his father henry andrew hawkins- engibe driver - deseased
her father henry twyman - tea caterer

What are the details from his marriage cert?

Is this his marriage?

Marriages Sep 1917

When and where was James born from the 1911 census?

hi
yeah he was a hospital porter and lived with all the nurses, lol x

Sylvia.

I know you dont have to subscribe to FMP to access the 1911 census. What I meant was even if you have a subscription you still have to pay to view it


Zoe did the occupation of James Hawkins in the institution match what you have

hi guys, i have just bought some credits and seen that james lived in an institution, meaning he lived in the hospital quarters. his birth does not match up with the one my nan has in her diary december 1870, but maybe she was wrong, x

Quinsgran


not quite correct


You can go direct to the 1911 website without having to go through findmypast

www.fmpbsol.1911census.co.uk/


I don't see the point in paying a subscription to findmypast just to access the 1911 census, on which you then have to buy credits!




sylvia

Unfortunately only Find My Past have the 1911 census. Even those who have a subscription to FMP have to pay
