Lyn Report 28 Dec 2009 08:08

Hi - hope someone can help me! Would like a look-up for Riseborough family. Thomas (1787) and Ann (1790, wife). Thomas born in Oulton. Child: Robert (1816) born in Oulton. In 1841 census also have a Henry (1836?/7) living with them, not sure if this is Thomas/Anns son or Roberts, hence the frustration! As in later census Robert is married to Rachel (1822), several children but Henry not included.. Henry seems to disapear in later census's and turns up again married to Ann Rump (1841) have I got the right Henry? Hope someone can help! Many thanks in advance.

Hi Vera,

It was your tip about the spellings that made me stop searching with a surname!

All the best

Lyn Report 28 Dec 2009 10:02

Hi Vera

Robert (born in Oulton) Rachel and children John, Sarah and George is the right one. Rachel born in 1822 - Wickmere. They had 3 more children: Samuel (1853), Jacob (1858) and Ann E (1860).

I believe Henry (1836/7) married Ann Rump, her mother Ann Salmon(1805) as this Henry would link down to my current tree. The confusion for me is not knowing the link between Henry and Robert!

Cheers

Lyn

Hi Ivy

Brilliant - It looks like them! Where did you find this, is it in the 1851 census - I've just looked in findmypast but it does not pick up the spelling "Rubro".

Cheers!

Hi Lyn,
Until you see parish christening records we cannot be 100% sure...but the Henry ... Ivy found with Thomas as father in 1851 .....looks like Robert and Henry are brothers. What do you think?
