I am looking for any Robinsons born to John and Catherine Robinson from Southwold Suffolk. I am descended from the eldest son John who came to NZ, I found one sister in the 1911 census down as a lodging house keeper living with mother and younger sister. I believe the house was the Grand Hotel.
I believe John seved in the Coast Guard and was postred first IOW, then Norfolf\k before moving to Southwold where he reired on a naval pension. I believed he died in 1906

Thank you for all that. I will be getting both John and Catherine's death certs to verify their parents as well

Lynski

Lynski Report 23 Apr 2012 04:23

Would the names of their parents be on their death certificates???

There would be an informant and depending on which one died first probably the other one would be the informant.

Have a look at this link -

Familysearch has a number of their christenings, but no mmn. If you search for births in Norfolk with parents John robinson and Catherine you will find them - & some of the had middle names -eg:

Mary Loves Robinson christened 21/11/1860
Agnes Fanny Robinson ch 10/7/1853

You need one of the birth certificates to confirm mmn, then their parents marriage to confirm their fathers names/occupations.

Wow Lynski you've been on a roll! Very impressed.
