What happened to him in future years, don't know if he will show up on the 1900 US Census but he didn't return to the UK

Ann,

I have looked on find my past and Ancestry, but found nothing at all - sorry but I don't have a worldwide sub, so maybe you could do your own thread asking for a worldwide look-up.

Sorry I couldn't help.

Dutch,

I have found the record you wanted, but I'm not sure what you want me to do?
If you would like me to download the image, it requires 30 credits, which I don't have enough.

Let me know if you want the link.

Valerie,

I have looked on various sites, and cannot find a birth for Lilian Caffery.

So it would seem to point to the fact she was born in Ireland, which is very difficult to search, although it could be worth you starting your own thread asking for a Irish birth look-up, in case anyone else can help.

Sorry I couldn't help further.

Hi Angela
I wonder if you could help me. I am trying to find the death cert for my ggg grandmother. Her name was Martha Cornwell. Last heard of in the 1851 Census. Was a farmer on Staplehurst Kent. Born approx 1786. I have checked the freebmds and there are no deaths in this area. She does not appear in the 1861 Census.
Cheers
Janette

Angela Report 2 Aug 2010 08:09

Janette,

There are a couple of possibilities :-

Martha Cornwell 1854 St Olave Southwark (1837-1901) London, Surrey
Martha Cornwell 1859 Islington Greater London, London, Middlesex


There isn't an age or est DOB on the image to help either.
