I am researching a John B Trevor II born Nov. 19, 1878 who married Caroline M Wilmerding in NYC on June 25, 1908. She died in Oct 1975 in Paul Smith's, Franklin Co., NY.
I have no info on any family, but saw your reference to John B Trevor III and am wondering about a connection. If so, please contact me .

Hi,

I have recently researching the Allshorn family, so I was wondering how you had got on with your research.

I noticed your grandfather was actually registered as Joseph James Allshorn in Aston, Birmingham in 1883, and your grandmother was born in Chester in 1882.

He died in 1949 in Cheshire and Gertrude in 1935 also in Chester.

Have you come across a Francis J Allshorn however I believe he might the son of Francis and Agnes{nee Trevor).

I have not been able to find any other births between Allshorns and Trevors.

The only Heather I found born in Cheshire was a Heather E Hesketh in 1927 so I was wondering whether your Mum was adopted?

At the moment I haven't found a connection between your Allshorns and mine.

Well bye for now

Cheers

Ted

Re: Joyce Dare (nee) Trevor

qualgard — 2011-11-17 10:17:17Z

Thank you for your kind reply, Howard. This is the first positive reply I've had so far and it’s quite exciting, I must say.

I had not even thought about looking for wills/administrations of Colin and Betty Dare, as my main purpose was to find someone/anyone who may have known him or his extended families (if any). So far, I have hit a brick wall.

Colin Dare’s great niece was able to provide me with his army details at Aldershot, his marriage record to Betty Dare in 1948, (whilst still married to Joyce Trevor) and his death record in Salisbury Wiltshire.

You asked what evidence I have of a bigamy charge? I have none. It is merely a family rumour since 1948/49 that was told to my mother, thru Joyce’s family in Calcutta. It was believed that he was imprisoned on bigamy charges. So it’s only hearsay.

I have found birth and marriage records for Joyce Trevor’s father & mother thru familysearch.org., but cannot find any trace of Joyce’s birth in India or any marriage record to Colin Dare, which must have been pre-1947. She was listed as Joyce Olive Dare on an UK passenger list on the “Empress of Scotland” docked in Liverpool on 26 Feb 1948 and Housewife: destination C/o RASC Depot, Aldershot, Hants.

You mentioned that there is a researcher on Genes Reunited who has done extensive research for the Trevor family. I would be love to contact her as I feel she may help me solve some of the mystery.

Re Colin Dare - As an RSM, I don’t know who to talk to about his military connections as I am really still a novice at all this. Can you point me in the right direction? I did write to the Bibby Line (who used to own the mv Devonshire)a few years ago, before I knew that he was stationed Aldershot from 1939 ? but they could not help. The thing is, it was so long ago, and I’m not sure where to start.
As regards his having been a driving instructor, I have placed an advert in the Salisbury Journal, but no luck so far. I did also write to the Broadchalke newspaper, the local ‘rag’ in Broadchalke, his last known address, but unfortunately, they did not respond.

Thanks once again for your help. I hope what little info I have supplied can assist in finding out what happened to Joyce Trevor (Dare)and Betty Dare. Is there a divorce record for either of them? Did Betty remain married to him. His death certificate does not help.

Best regards

Once you are a member you can use the search facility to search members family trees. If you search for Joyce Trevor born Calcutta that should enable you to message the people with that combination in their trees - in this case a Ron.

Hello Howard

This is an amazing breakthrough for me. Thank you for being the intermediary to my research. I am just thrilled.

How do I get in touch with this contact. I have never used Genes Reunited, but will give it a shot right now. What his name or username please

Re: Joyce Dare (nee) Trevor

howardeastcott — 2011-10-26 16:07:04Z

I've had a response from my contact and here's what he's said:

"Hello Howard

Thank you for your contact.

I am in fact a nephew of the same Joyce Trevor that is mentioned in the ancestry.com posting.

I found the post very interesting.

If the lady in question (Carol) would like to contact me through GenesReunited, I would gladly try to help her."

Your cousin Meredith has a tree on Genes Reunited and may be able to help.

HTH,

Re: Joyce Dare (nee) Trevor

The association of the Royal Corps of Transport can be found here http://www.army.mod.uk/rlc/history/17700.aspx and their secretary may be able to suggest a way of getting in touch with former soldiers - currently about 1200.

I have messaged the person on GR with Joyce Trevor in his tree but don't get your hopes up - the response to messages left with relatives of searchers on that site has been virtually nil.

Wills and administrations can be obtained from the family courts division based in Yorkshire. Google will find the relevant address and forms for enquiring.

HTH,

Howard

Re: Joyce Dare (nee) Trevor

howardeastcott — 2011-10-25 10:57:20Z

Carol,

I assume that you have looked for the wills/administrations of Colin and Betty Dare.

What evidence is there that he was charged with bigamy - there ought to be Court papers relating to this.

The Trevor family were quite prominent in Calcutta over many years. There is a researcher on Genes Reunited who has researched the family extensively and perhaps Meredith might look into this for you.

Are ther any shipping records that suggest where Joyce might have gone after India's Independence in 1947?

Re Colin Dare - As an RSM and as a driving instructor Colin would be remembered by many. a posting in his local newspaper might bring results.

HTH,

Howard

I am researching the Allshorn family and noticed your posting about the marriage of Allshorn brothers to Trevor sisters in the early 1900's. I have not come across a Heather Eira. You have probably resolved your query over the past four years but I would be happy to exchange information about the Allshorn's in Australia - I was not aware that any went to NZ.

She was a domestic servant at the time, aged anywhere between 15 and 30 I would guess. She appears to be my grandmother as she was the biological mother of my mother.

alel142 — 2008-01-18 09:30:59Z

Hi Brian & Steve
I don't know whether you are still researching Charles Trevor (I have only just found the thread)
Charles was my husband's G/G/Grandfather. One of his sons Thomas emigrated to Maryborough, Queensland, Australia on 18 Apr 1883 on the "Earl Granville". He married Eliza Jane Williams in Maryborough on 25 Nov 1885 and they had 11 children.
I live in Queensland and would love to hear from you if you are still interested. I can help with our family, but don't know very much about Charles. All I could find on 1841 census was William Trever age about 56(spelt with an 'e')and married to Elizabeth age about 55 (he was ag.lab)and son Charles (age 20)in Baschurch, so I don't know if this is right.
Pryce Trevor arrived in Maryborough on 19 Jul 1883 on the "Kapunda".

Kind regards,
Elaine

Re: Trevor of County Down & Later Banbury Oxfordshire

rpreston168 — 2007-08-05 11:30:31Z

Thanks for the reply. My ancestor John Trevor was the son of a Thomas Trevor, a tailor and according to the English census was born in Newry County Down. Thomas and Patrick Trevor who are with him were both born in County Down and Patrick was born about 1825 (Thomas in about 1821). I have made contact with a descendant of Thomas and his father was also a Thomas so I can only assume he and John were brothers.I have not found Patrick after 1851 unless the Peter or Peter Patrick Trevor born County Down about 1825 who appears at Worcestershire in 1871 is him. From the scattered Irish records that I have found on the internet there appear to be a few Trevor/Trevers etc in County Down so we could well be connected. Do you have any indormation on Trevor families in County Down.

Cheers, Ross

heyjude134 — 2006-07-09 08:36:41Z

My mothers name was Heather Eira Allshorn. Father James and mother Gertrude [Trevor] My mother came to NZ by boat but I don't know when. She looks about early 20's in photos. I found a marriage in June 1908 for my grandparents but I cannot find death notices or a birth for my mother. Have no idea how old she was when she died, about 53 they thought. She died in 1986. But I think she was older than that. If my grandparents married in 1908 how soon after was my mother born. Were there any brothers or sisters? I remember Mum mentioning an Aunt Lil? We wrote to a London newspaper about 1978 - 1980 looking for family members. She had a couple of replies. Please if anyone can help me. I was told my grandmother died when my mother was a little girl and her father brought her up. This is all I know and would appreciate any help at all. My mothers death notice said she was born in Scotland, Renfrewshire. But I don't know how true this is. She called herself a Pom and was proud of it. I am finding this very important to me. We didn't have long enough together and she now has three grandchildren that will miss having a Nanny. I want and need to be able to tell them as much as I can about their wonderful Nanny and family.
Thank you to anyone who can help me.

I am also researching what appears to be this family, although the dates are different. I have Charles Trevor (b. 1821) married Elizabeth Tudor (b. 1828). Children were: John (b. 1849), Mary (b. 1852), William (b. 1855), George (b. 1857), Richard (b. 1860), Pryce (b. 1862), Thomas (b. 1866) & Eliza (b. 1867).
William, believed to have died in England, 1877. All others except John & Mary emigrated to Australia
