Where is the info (names ) etc coming from? You seem to know quite a lots about them, and yet are looking for them at a funny time - usually you either start in 1841 with them at home and go> or 1901 and go < Do you have A 1901 person hat we can work back fom, wouild be easier and more relyable

Karen Report 30 Jan 2006 08:52

alot of the info has come from birth certs and marriage certs, other info has come from family and the igi, it probably does look a bit upside down way of doing it but i am relitavely new to this and i am just going on what i have been given

so both his brother and his dad were called Cornelius

Karen

Karen Report 30 Jan 2006 09:12

this philip is very confusing, do you know if cobham is near gt bookham, i assume it is near or he wouldnt keep changing his mind

Karen

Karen Report 30 Jan 2006 09:13

yes they were both called cornelius, but i dont know what his mother was called no one can remember that at all

looking in the IGI i cant even see a cornelius Miles, if i hunt thru children born in the right time frame. let lone children with those name. what was Cornelius Snrs occupation- see if i can see him on 1851 somehow one possible explantion- you should catch him on 1841 census though (which i dont have) Name: Miles, Cornelius Record Type: Deaths Quarter: June Year: 1842 District: Epsom County: Surrey Volume:4 Page 83 Epsom Created 1st July 1837.
