The census were released every 10 yrs from 1801...The only useful data from the census appears from 1841 to 1911 - the current census available...it is unlikely that the 1921 census will be released for some time yet if ever considering the current economic climate

Exact dates of census ....

Wendy - if you go to FreeBMD you can trace births marriages and deaths for the family: http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

It's free and easy to use.

thankyou so much for helping me im going to look up all of this that you having given me i think this will certainly make my mum happy and hopefully il be able to trace her living brothers and sisters and find the graves of the ones that are not with us today so mum can pay her respects, and hopefully i will be able to do this for her.theres is just one more thing i would like to ask thougth if you dont mind. my mum was chucked out of foster care at a young age and lived in other ppls homes as she was there ie,maid.servant.house keeper.she had a relationship with her boyfriend at the time and got pregnant wen the ppl who she was living with found out they chucked mum out. mum has never forgotten him even now.but i no she would not upset his life now but i think she would just like to no that he is living and doing well for himself and i would like to no also as he would be my brother that iv never seen or even met .is there away of finding out any information about this thankyou for all your help am really grateful its taken me yrs yet it took you a few mins . she saut help from her mum but didnt get anywhere so when colin rydon born 19 01 1960.at 6wks old in mum was given no choice but to give him up colin was born in wellingtong hospital somerset and mum had to walk to chard a mothers and babys home at braeside chard where it all took place thankyou

i was looking for frederick george william bishop &florence may bishop / nee alder...there children and there names & birth years they had 11 children of there own my dad is one of them born oct 1937 malcolm colin bishop. i know molly and ronnie bishop died of an illness between the ages of 4&8years old. in early 19th centry in somerset.dad was very young at the time he vaguily remembers them.he would like to no what they died of.and where they are buried to.how do i go about getting information about this please can you help me at all thankyou so much wendy

Wendy, we shouldn't really post details of people who are still living on here, so I'm sending you a message with a list of the 11 children.

I think these might be the sad deaths of the two young ones (but can't be 100% sure):

Deaths Dec 1926 (>99%)
Bishop Maria F L 5 Frome 5c 458
(Molly is often a nickname for Mary or Maria)

Deaths Mar 1927 (>99%)
Bishop Ronald F E 3 Frome 5c 584

But your dad wasn't born until 1937? Perhaps he remembers talk of them?

To find out what they died of you'd need to send off for the death certificates from GRO - http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/

im sorry i didnt no i wernt suppose to put names down am sorry bout that.wendy

Wendy - no! I meant that I wouldn't post the birth details of the people so that's why I sent them in a message!

Wendy.
Your mother can register with NORCAP and also leave a letter with them so that if Colin ever starts to search for his birth mother it can be passed on to him.
She can also do that with the adoption acency that handled his adoption.
And contact the local Social Services for the Chard Somerset area if it was them that did the adoption.

yes i think you maybe right i think that is molly and ronnie.and my dad i dont think my dad would of been born then.but he said his older sister maisie use to talk of then when he was little.maisie died around 1992-93.i think dad has only bout 3sisters living and they dont keep intouch with him so am trying to discover our family tree but helping dad to find some of his family life .cause he asked me if i would.this is wonderful information i cant wait to show him.as he doesnt own 1 photo of his grandparents... & his parents and brothers & sisters..he knows his dad was in a football team.and he knows he was in both world wars &was shot &injured &was hospitalised for some time.and that he fibbed about his age when he joined think gramps was 15 or 16 and his father my great grandad signed him over to the army.do you think there maybe any photos or write ups of my grandparents etc at all that my dad could get ahold of.id like to find sometink for him to treasure apart from his memories thankyou for all your help its all great news to pass on to my dad and for keepsake for us

Wendy

I am not very experienced at helping but can you confirm that

Frederick George W Bishop
Jun 1898 - Barton Regis, Gloucestershire

Was your Dad s father please

And I will have a look in old papers and records for any information on him

Does your Dad know - roughly - where his father may have played football


Irene

on some of the infomation on my mother side rydons it says at bottom of there preview name take a look at the pic to see even more. also says vol number what does that mean and how do i get to see the pic and more do i have to view this else where or can i view it on this site.iv type in my mothers info as above but it just comes back error name not nown thanks wendy

irene yes that is my grandad my dads father.and in the morning i will see my dad and ask him what team he played for not sure if it was a local home team where he lived at the time or more well known il get back to you on that one from wendy

Jim the Ferret - would you please delete the births info from your post? It contains personal info about people born as late as 1941!! Against the rules, and not appropriate, and can be sent by PM, as I believe someone then did.

(And the usual disclaimer:
Yes, the info can be found at sites like FreeBMD and Ancestry.
No, that info will not be found by search engines like posts here will.
And no, those sites do not contain discussions of the details of the personal lives of the family in question as threads here do, and this thread does.)

irene i also no that my great grampy my dads grandfather frederick george bishop from avonmouth born brislinton/shirehampton. i think he was married to sarah belcher if i am correct.had connections with the bristol docks and boats or ships and a industry called stevedoreng what ever that is...my dad never got to meet his grandfather because his grandfather disapproved of his father marrying his wife i think the world years ago was a pretty harsh one my family had certainly had a tough one way back then. because nan had a child already.so he offered my gramps a thousand pound to move to austrailia to never see them again.but my gramps just walked away and marryed nan and reared his children and excepted being dissowned by his father saddly the kids where never to see there grandparents either..it must of been the hurtfulist thing my grandad had to except.but my dad always wondered what they done how they lived and what happened to them...
