Checked my notes, re Robert and Racheal but don't think I found any issue. But can followmup again. Saw the 1841 Liverpool record, for William, Mary and Charles, but as no birthplace given how can I confirm? Than ks everyone for all you help, will have another bash at it tomorrow. G'night all

If his name is charles Almond I;m beginging to think he could have been anywhere in 1841! Born 1825 ( not as previously stated 1822 ) Wife Jane June-Sept 1949 South Shields All issue born in South Shields Jane 1852 Margaret 1858 Robert 1856 William Miller 1854 Agnes 1869 Mary E 1863 Address 3 Kepple Street Westoe Durham I found another James Almond ,Aldborough, Suffolk.1822 & family also living in 9 Kepple Street Durhami n 1871 & 1881, But Icannot find the link between them if any. Did think they could be brothers as both Mariners. But I cannot lonk them either

Is he in Liverpool in 1841? Or is he the one on familysearch christened 1824 to Robert and Rachel. Heather

Charles? His name is too ordinary to belong to this family, lol. Only joking. When was he born?

Well you lot are red hot ! The Almond family is spot on. I was actually wondering if the individuals themselves would have changed their christian names by choice as I cannot find any trace of Charles Almond before 1861. Born Aldborough Suffolk. 1822 Lived in Westoe Durham, 1871 & 1891, Was a Mariner, Have Vessel records for 1881 & 1861 I just cannot find a link back any further, have checked just about every almond in Suffolk census's to no avail. I need pointing in another direction I think

Could it be Hephzibah? not sure about the spelling Heather

ErikaH

ErikaH Report 29 Apr 2006 23:27

Stephzebah........might be Hepzibah Obediah.........Obadiah (not very unusual) Post the surname......fresh eyes might help Reg

Heather

Heather Report 29 Apr 2006 23:27

Obadiah isn't that unusual. Is it names you can't read on the census? Heather

Am trying to find rellies in Suffolk and its driving me Insaaaayyyynnnn! ( am a rocky horror fan )
