I am looking for any information about my 4 x great grandfather Joseph Thorn/Thorne. He was born in 1797 in Devon Axmouth in England and married Mary Gallard on the 25th January 1818.They were married in Leicester. Joseph died in 1883 in Leicester. The 1881 census shows that he was living with Joseph Beacon at that time. I have only tracked down one child to this marriage so far and that is my 5 x great grandfather Joseph.
Being in Australia it is very hard to find out any info. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards Tania Howes. |

SIMMONDS
Need help please with my husband's family tree as I am totally stuck. I had very little information when I started out on this but have managed the following:
Grandfather: Frederick Simmonds b1875 Watford Herts
GGrandfather: Henry Walker Simmonds b1845. Henry was the illigitimate son of Harriet Simmonds b1821 Watford Herts and Andrew Walker. Henry's birth certificate shows residence as Boot Yard, Watford - how do I trace who was living at this address as Harriet and Henry Walker Simmonds do not seem to be on the 1851 census. Is it possible to look at an address on the census without a name? Harriet married someone else later in life and her father is shown as Henry Simmonds. Can someone please help me with him and the name of his wife.
BOAK
My own family tree has come to a halt. Does anyone have access to Rothbury Parish Records for c1828/1829? My GGGGrandfather, Robert Boak, was born in Rothbury around this time and his marriage certificate shows his father as Robert Boak, occupation farmer. I am beginning to think this is a fabrication as I cannot find him despite numerous searches.
Any help with either of the above families would be very much appreciated - my children are not terribly impressed with my efforts!!!
Best wishes. Vivian |

I am searching for my gr-gr-grandfather, John Robinson. He married a Margaret (or Mary) Preston. My great grandfather, William James, was born to them about 1838. William came to St. Louis, Missouri, USA and married a Julia Ann Lockett in 1859. Have been unable to trace where in England they came from. The Lockett family came from Burslem, Staffordshire, England. Any information would be greatly appreciated. |
