Find Ancestors

:-S

Thanks, I have done :)

Helen, you could also contact Jany directly by clicking on her name - just in case she doesn't come back to this thread.

Hi Jany,

I am the great-great granddaughter of Mark John's sister Mary Ann Dunning. I have been a member here a long time but don't use it....... I have a pretty comprehensive tree on Ancestry........I've just paid to message you so I hope you get this!

As you've been told there is no record of Alfred Dunning before his marriage to Eliza Briggs in 1836, however I have all the census records, I believe, for Eliza.....I have just sent for her death certificate which I hope will arrive this week which will confirm everything for me. I also have her birth and baptism records.

The Norwood connection is that Eliza's father, William, was born there. Everyone on Ancestry has William married to one Mary Ellett which is blatantly wrong, as is the 1841 census they have for the couple. This has led to those people going down a completely wrong line which I can explain to you if necessary.

Anyway I hope to hear from you. All the best, your 3rd cousin once removed Helen x

;-)

Yes,thank you.
Eliza later married John Jones and I have them on the 1861 in Camden with their 2 sons.
I know it is them as my (Mark)John Dunning still lives with them.
I lost track of them after that.

Have you got the next one for Eliza and the children at her parents house?

Mel
Thank you for the 1841
I have no idea where I got the Norwood info from..it was a long while ago.!

On the 1841 census Alfred and Eliza are down as not born in that county. The two children were.

Thank you for looking

There are loads of people with Alred on their trees on Ancestry but nobody has any parents for him.

I have that he came from Norwood in Surrey, not sure if that came from a census or what someone told me.

hmmm - digging around the web I see that there are a lot of Dunning's in Dorset - wonder if Alfred came from there?

Ann and Mel
Thank you.
I don't know if the Herbert and George are mine, they are not directly related but possible they are descended from another of Alfred's children.
Mark John is definitely mine. He dropped the Mark though and even married as John.

Mel..yes, I hate it when there is no sign of someone anywhere.Don't really know what to do next
