John,
I'm really sorry for my comments yesterday - there is no excuse - and I really hope I haven't put you off posting on the boards.
I'm not going to try to excuse my comments, but have spent a fair bit of time on other threads recently which have turned out to have already been investigated.
So, I'm sorry for my post which you didn't deserve.
Good luck with your research Flip

Hi Flip and other researchers. Firstly, my previous post which MarieCeleste brought to your attention was, as she says, regarding the BLAND branch of the family who moved to the USA (Thanks MC for looking out for me). In this post it's quite clear that I only asked about the BLACKSHAWS of Leeds. Secondly, thanks again for your help and input but I have to correct Flip's last comment: This is actually only the second post I have ever placed on Genes R, so I am very new to this and have not actually 'had loads of help in the past' ... Do I think you just invent it? No I do not. What has actually upset you here Flip? I actually don't know the rules of this game. Is help given freely and willingly or not? Are messages limited to one thread only? Perhaps I should have looked up how to use this before I tested it out. Thanks to those who have helped me second time around but if some of you give it grudgingly and find it necessary to make that kind of comment then I'm out of here! John :-0

Flip - there was hardly anything on that last thread about the Blackshaws, it was really all about the Blands and relatives in USA.
I only put on the link to stop anyone pursuing Emily and Noah.

Oh, thanks MC, don't you just love tracing over old threads and research. Why on earth don't posters just stick to one thread?
John, you have had loads of help in the past why duplicate research - do you think we just invent it?

Oh I remember - Noah was the one who changed his name to Harry, wasn't he? http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1321761
(although connected, it was a query on a different branch)

Thanks Stuart, Flip, Jacky, This helps loads. I reckon Fred is the one that sadly died aged 18 and Walter died aged 19. From what I can gather in the light of this new info, Arthurs two sons also died young. John Clifford Blackshaw died aged 45 and his brother died at only 7 years old. John C was possibly married. I vaguely recollect my grandmothers family having illness and tragedy somewhere in their past. How sad! Thanks again guys I am very grateful for this :-)

have looked at possible deaths for albert also i looked at all the birth,s of albert blackshaw,s born about the right year as put on census although sometimes not correct
Births Mar 1886 (>99%) BLACKSHAW Albert Hanslet 9b 291
and this could be a possible death for him as the year of birt on this one is given 1884 its the only possible one that fits the right time frame but would need death cert to comfirm
Name: Albert Blackshaw Birth Date: abt 1884 Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1921 Age at Death: 37 Registration district: Doncaster Inferred County: Yorkshire West Riding Volume: 9c Page: 974

John posting census gives the helpers points of reference from which to work, we don't know your family, so need as much information as possible to start us off.
A good website with free records of bmd's from Sep Qtr 1837 to approx 1950/60 - an on going project and not all yet transcribed up to date http://www.freebmd.org.uk

Hi Stuart, Many thanks for that. I have seen this census result before. After that the remaining family appear in the 1901 Census. Of course I know that my Grandmother, Lily Blackshaw, married James Henry Annal but her twin, Albert I never knew anything about him. My grandmother died in 1965 when I was very young but I am sure Albert was gone before I was born (1957) as he was hardly ever mentioned and I only realised he was my grans twin through recent research! I suppose many people didn't complete their census forms and I am wondering if that's why the rest of the family don't show up? Cheers, John
