Hi Floridablade, My husbands maternal family name was Kay from around the Ecclesall Rd. area and Heeley. Do you have any names ?. I have the record of a 1872 marriage and a 1896 marriage etc.

Cheers, Cynthia, Ontario, Canada.

I have recently been using the Free Yasni Search website and have found a few items on there that were useful in my search for 'lost' rellies.

 

The latest was an old peoples home site which not only gave details of my ancestor but a photograph also, which was excellent.

 

If anybody wants to use the site it is at http://www.yasni.co.uk

 

I must warn users that it does give out loads of stuff and you have to be prepared to wade through a load of stuff not relevant but if you are keen and willing to persevere the results can be excellent, bear in mind it is free.

 

Good Hunting!

Hi

 

My grandmother, Lucy Evans, was previously married to a Richard Addy by whom she had three children. She was living in Furnace Hill in 1901.

My husbands Grandfather was Maurice Kay born 1874

Brother William " 1877

Sister Rose Ann " 1880

Children of William Bn.1852

and Ann Bn. ?

 

I am sure that there must have been more children. I could only find the above on the 1881 census, as Rose Ann was born 1880.

 

Thanks for your reply. Cynthia.

I'm trying to find Anne Dewsnap. (not sure about the 'e' on the end off Anne!) My Mom told me to send her a message. I'm only 42 years old and I have to do what my mom tells me. Only kidding, if Ms Dewsnap is around I'd love to hear from her! Pm me.

 

Thanks.
