Hi all, I have traced the QUINNEY family back and have come across a ALICE QUINNEY married to a ALFRED CATER in Colchester in 1872. I believe there must be some relatives around as the QUINNEY family originated from the Colchester area. We have travelled the world and I personally have arrived back in the area. Can anybody help.
Thanks in anticipation
Dave Quinney

Is this the family in the 1911 census:-

CATER, Alfred Head Married M 59 1852 Confectioner Colchester VIEW
CATER, Alice Wife Married
39 years F 58 1853 Colchester VIEW
CATER, Arthur Thomas Son Signel M 33 1878 Confectioner Colchester VIEW

CATER, Claude Henry Son Single M 20 1891 Fitter Engineers Colchester VIEW
CATER, Robert Son Single M 15 1896 Colchester

Address:

Reference:

If so then you could try putting some of the names into the "search trees" and see if anyone has these people in their tree.

This is possibly the Quinney family in the 1861 census:-

QUINEY, Arthur J Head Married M 50 1811 Jobbing Gardener
Great Waltham
Essex VIEW
QUINEY, Caroline Wife Married F 50 1811 Charwoman
Tendring
Essex VIEW
QUINEY, Joseph Son Unmarried M 16 1845 Errand Boy
Colchester
Essex VIEW
QUINEY, Arthur Son M 10 1851 Scholar
Colchester
Essex VIEW
QUINEY, Alice Daughter F 7 1854 Scholar
Colchester
Essex


Address:
91, East Hill, St James, Colchester County:
Essex


Again you could put some of these names into "search trees" and see if there are any Genes members who are descendants.
