hi have them on the 1851 census and all up to 1901, im really trying to find nathaniel and his family after ellen left to be married



thanks toeboe

Hi toeboe - can't find them in 1841 but have you seen this baptism?

Ellen Grace Lee 18 Oct 1824 St Peter Liverpool parents Nathaniel & Mary

What do you think?

Gillian

hi gillian,



that looks very likely, my date of birth is approximate so that could be right,

also nathaniel lee is quite an unusal name.



a very good find !! im convinced, where do you search the baptism records ?



thanks toeboe



p.s congrats on becoming member of the year !!

Hi toeboe

This one was easy! - it was on the IGI (familysearch.org) - you can find Nathaniel's other children on there too. Let me know if you want me to post them.

Gillian

hi gillian



that would be cool if you could post nathaniels other children as it may help me to find them on a census, i will have to check out that site as i did not know they had any baptism records



thanks



toeboe

hi



i have ellen lee's marriage certificate from 1840 which says fathers name nathaniel

occupation match card maker, thats pretty much all i have

Hi toeboe

Go to familysearch.org - click search button at top - click international genealogical index button at side and start searching! Just need to be a bit cautious about some entries - mainly if they don't give full details

Here are the other baptisms parents names Nathaniel & Mary

Margaret Lee 9 June 1816 St Pauls St Pauls Square Liverpool

Christiana 30 Nov 1817 St Pauls

thanks gillian, that must be the right ones, its too far back to get a certificate isnt it

Yes you can't get a certificate pre-1837 - all you could possibly get is a copy of the parish register entry (it doesn't give names of fathers though).

1841 Census - Liverpool

Nicholson Lee 20 beer house

Nathaniel Lee 15 apprentice watchmaker
