Hi, I am not finding anything for definite re census. There are a few deaths between 1851 & 61 for a Edward Taylor none with the middle name LLoyd 1861 census. There is a Elizabeth Taylor born c 1821 widow working as a nurse but neither of her daughters are with her? will keep looking. Not sure if y...

I certainly will Mary Ann. It's some time since I have researched this line, mainly because I was stumped. However spent a few hours last night and found that the Vintings were actually Swedish :shock: not German after all. All the Parish records that I have, without exception refer to the 'German' ...

Thanks Mary Ann for your interest. I think I will try the web site as you suggest. This has been a particularly interesting line to research, most of the information that is available refers to the 'Oley' and Mohl families, the only small ref I have been able to find on the Vinting family is here ht...

Has anyone any experience of researching early Germanic records? I would like to know the correct spelling of the name if possible, by the time it got to c1803 it was Vinton. My x8 maternal g.father was a John Vinton (Vinten-Vinting-Vintin) born c1655 Solingen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. He wa...

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and hope the New Year is good to you.

Many thanks Mary Ann.

It is some time since I have added any further findings on this line but have been chipping away at it. I am adding just in case anyone from Australia or New Zealand may have an interest. Also the Fairhurst family in Liverpool. At the beginning of my post, it was re John Fairhurst born 19/4/1808 L.p...

Daggers, Not sure this will help with James Sprot/t but gives his relationship to Adelaide Watt, he was her legal guardian. Hope it is of use. http://spekearchiveonline.co.uk/miss_watt's_letters.htm These pages contain the letters of Miss Watt, the last owner of Speke Hall and the Speke Estate. They...
