JulianaTratham — 2009-11-07 17:51:42Z

No becuase my sisters have a different father and they had mother's maiden name albiet spelt clightly differently. My sisters were born 25th April 1941 and were triplets Helena, Despana and Ernee. Their father was named on their birth certificates and he was Greek. They did pay him a surprise visit but of course he wasn't interested. Now there's a surprise !! We beleive my father was dutch as she named me Juliana and her name appears to now begin with Wilhelmina Millicent. I call myself Julia but she named me Juliana hence the reason for ua all thinking my father was Dutch although not named on my birth certificate. Does any of this help ??

ELLinSpain — 2009-11-07 07:35:36Z

is this "Trath*" a married name??????????

Madam Amies-ran a dance studio in Birmingham.

LizRogers27 — 2009-11-07 03:37:22Z

My great grandmothers younger sister was Minnie Welsh who was know as "Madam Amies" and I believe she ran a dance studio in Birmingham, England. Her second husband was Henry Albion Amies and in the 1911 Census his occupation is listed as a Dancing Teacher. I am assuming that they ran it together or she did after his passing. Would anyone have any information or memories of this studio? Was the studio known as "The Coffin"?

JulianaTratham — 2009-11-06 23:32:32Z

Only information I have is that she was supposed to have been born on 20th Feb 1915 in Newcastle upon Tyne England. She was my mother but I cannot find her record either so am really baffled. If you can help would be great. Am really also looking for a brother of mine who was supposedly adopted whilst I was fostered. Located Triplet half sisters some years ago same mother but different father. Would love to find nephews and nieces etc or a brother !! If you can find anything would very much appreciate it. One other thought my sisters surname is spelt Trathen i think.
Many thanks Julia

Re: Davies/Davis Family Birmingham 1800 to 1900's

Hello,

I am researching Lily Davis born in abt 1893. She married William Wynn in 1912 in Birmingham and their child was my grand mother ( Lily Wynn ).

On their Marriage Certificate is states that Lily Davis' father is William Davis (Window Cleaner).

Is this helpful , if so I would be keen to know more about William and his family as I've hit a bit of a wall now.

Thanks & Kind Regards

Thanks Liane,

I had assumed that if a father was dead this fact would be recorded on a certificate but this practice doesn't seem to have been adopted until later. Wonder at what date this changed ?

Hallo there,

I am so sorry I have not replied to your last two missives, I don't know how I came to miss them but I did.

My Charles Storer married Emily Louisa Francis in 1895, he named his father as Thomas (Thomas was deceased at this time so no help there about occupation).

Charles Storer was a bricklayers labourer, he died in 1936. He must have been in the army at some stage because he was described as an army pensioner) I have been unable to find out any more about that side of his life (or any other really).

From your last email it would appear that we are not talking about the same Charles Storer.

Many thanks again for taking the trouble to find out things and once again please accept my apologies for being tardy in replying. Its so unusual that I missed the reply, because Charles Storer is the stumbling block in my family tree and I am constantly looking out for any information.

Cheers

Jean

hello lyn

the gro only keeps official records from 1837. you will have to get the parish records i think. the best place to ask advice on how to get this information in from the warwickshire family history this is their laddresswww.wfhs.org.uk. i expect they will be able to tell you where to look next.

kind regards

From 1911, marriage records started showing the partner - prior to this, you have to see if the 2 names arrive at the same date & place

Hi Can someone please help?
I'm trying to find a marriage record for a Mary White and thought that at ancestry you also got to see the spouse's name too (Thomas William Smith). As they have really common names I'm finding lots of each of them individually but putting them together is difficult. Its made more difficult in that I only have a rough date - about 1880 and I think its a Catholic wedding!!

Many thanks
