I have sent them Also what do you think the fathers occupation of the woman was, is it a sailor or a tailor??

Elaine

Elaine Report 7 Aug 2006 11:12

maiden name - Cawsey ?? Father´s occupation - virtually impossible to decide as there is no other S or T to compare it with !! Can you find him on a census?

Willow

Willow Report 7 Aug 2006 11:13

Hi no I cant find him, I thought it read Cawrey?

Elaine

Elaine Report 7 Aug 2006 11:14

A Cole / Cawsey marriage to consider - not sure how Bristol fits in with your info. Marriages Jun 1852 Cawsey Mary Rebecca Bristol 6a 124 Cole Charles Bristol 6a 124

Thanks Elaine I know nothing about Mary Rebecca, its william Rancombe thats my ancestor. He is on the 1871 census with an Ellen in Hinton Charterhouse, Ellens maiden name was Dascombe, but there is no marriage for them, and I cant find a death for Mary Rebecca so perhaps he was still married? I cant find him from 1841 to 1871 either. Was hoping to find her on a census, might give me clue as to where he is.
