Find Ancestors

Thanks to all who tried to help but my tree seems to have some broken branches along the way
ANDY

Same here Sylvia. No luck at all.


Ozi

we should be able to find Clara, Thomas and Robert b. 1890 on the 1891 Census


but they are not there.


One possible answer is that the transcriber has put them under the wrong surname ...... although I have tried searching under christian name only, without success!

Katie

So Thomas was your GREAT grandfather...............

Sorry Very frustrating this one. I cant find them on any census records, My father is Wilfred Cooke Bolton 1930 Dec 1/4 8c 523
His father Was Robert Cooke Bolton 1890 Mar 1/4 8c 472
His father was Thomas Cooke ??? occ was Gardener
His father James Cooke??? from Marriage Cert Occ Farm labourer

What was Thomas's occupation? (From the marriage cert)

I'm aware of that, as I read your posting..

I'm trying.......without success so far........... to find them in 1891.

You haven't answered my question about your father...........

Clara Buckthorp Birth Lincoln 1864 Sep 1/4 7a 450
Thomas Cooke to Clara Marriage Bolton 1889 Sep 1/4 8c 556
Thomas Cooke Death Bolton 1897 Dec 1/4 8c 239

I am mainly trying to find where Thomas was Born. Thanks

Perhaps you aren't aware that until 1875, there were no penaties for not registering births.........so Thomas's birth may simply not have been registered

Corrected feed to marriage, Thomas Married Clara Buckthorp in 1889 & died in 1897 age 45

Are you saying that your grandfather was born in 1852?

Who did he marry?

When and where was your father born?

What was his name?

Thomas married & died in Bolton

1852 thomas cooke , but no ideas on birth place, the only poss I have found is Norfolk Garboldisham as Father on Marriage Cert is James, Cant find any more. Thanks
