Thread: stephenson family

Hello i need some help trying to find my nanna's family her dad was called George Henry Stephenson and her mum was called Rose annie stephenson (parkinson) before married.

They lived in Patrington in Humberside East Yorkshire. There children were called Beatrice, Ida, Jean, Phyllis, Kelly,Winnie, Majorie, Gwendoline, Albert and Dorothy.



Can anyone help me with any information please.

Thank you

Becky

Hi Becky



Do you have any dates for birth or marriage, believe it or not there are a lot of George Henry Stephensons in the 1901 census so a birth date would help



Laurie

We think he was born in 1890 as she was told he was 72 when he died in 1962. He lived in the Hornsea (East Yorkshire) area.

Hi Becky



This is the only George H I could find in the Hornsea district. 1901



William Stephenson 41 b 1861 Seaton ag lab

Mary Ann 39 b 1862 Withernwick

Beatrice 16 b 1885

Ernest A 14 b 1887

Tom 11 b 1890

George H 10 b 1891

Arther W 2 b 1899, all children born Seaton, district of Hornsea



living with the family was Mary Stephenson 64 1837 washerwoman b Seaton



1861 Seaton

Joseph Stephenson 53 b 1808 Withernwick

Maria 53 b 1808 Brandsburton

Jane JAMESON DAUGHTER 20 B 1841

PETER JAMESON SON IN LAW 23 B 1838

Ann Stephenson 17 b 1844

George 13 b 1848

Henry 8 gb 1853

William grandson 1 b 1860



that should keep you quiet for an hour or so, let me know what you think and if you want me to look further, I can't find William living with his parents but next door to them in 1861 is a Joseph and Maria Stephenson that is a possibillity.

We think that this is my Nana's dads family and the George H listed above is my nana's dad.

Would it be possible to look further into this and find out who he married and maybe we could then find out the deaths of my nana's brothers and sisters and to see if any are still alive and if so where they are living.



Is there anywhere I can look to find out this information? As i have no clue where to start with this for her.

Hi Becky



Nice to know we are making progress, do you know the christian name of your Nanna's mother, Georges wife, I have 3 marriages for a George H Stephenson in Yorkshire between 1910 and 1915 so if you know her first name I might be able to supply the surname and maybe track her family, the other way is to work backwards from you by buying certificates, it can work out expensive doing it that way at £7 per certificate.



So see what you can find out by asking family members lots of questions, it is amazing what people know but don't realise they know it or how helpful it could be to trace back for ancestors, look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Laurie



My Nana's mum was called Rose Annie Parkinson before she married George. I have listed all her brothers and Sisters at the beginning.



It would be amazing if we could find out if any of her brothers and sisters were still alive.

Is it possible to find this out?

Hi





George married Rose June 1914, Skirlaugh, Yorkshire, unles the family of Rose lived to be over 100 you aren't going to find them, you could put a message on the forum asking if any one else is researching this family or related to them, amazing the responce you can get.



Laurie

Ok well thank you so much for your help. I will try and find my nana's bothers and sisters now and see if any of them are still alive they should be as my nana is and she is now 81 and she was one of the oldest.



Thanks again

becky

I have got no further can anyone else help me to find out if any of my Nana's brothers or sisters are still alive.



Thank you
