A Bonza Little Digger!
Checking census info./marriages on family member of 2nd G.G.Aunt 'M' found him in 1881 with wife & family & a man with same name as wife's maiden name, born in different area. Actually she is born in different area for each census.So, I followed him to 1891, met his wife & family inc. a young girl with same Family name as Gt.Aunt another 'M' married into, ..dizzy yet?..Had to look into that ..oh for heavens sake, I'm supposed to be tidying up known Family stuff & where am I ? elsewhere in some-one else' s tree!
Can anyone figure out what this forename is meant to be? Between Lucy & Elizabeth. others included for comparison of Initials.What name is this.PNG
 
I am dizzy and half blind.....but are you sure that is a man's name? It looks like it is "Bridhet". Is there a name on the page with a Capital B that you can check? At first it looked like "Brother" or "Bridget".

Night.......too old for this stuff....lol. C|:-)
 
Thanks Heather & Doug, also Ann who popped in as I typed..sorry was called away in two directions. A clue or not,..this person was 8yrs old said to have been born in Topsham,Devon.
In the next census 1881 chap aged 18 same parents different name born Tottenham,M'sex...Frederick!
Perhaps earlier name was a nickname?
must see to my Garlic-chilli chicken. back later.
 
What a pretty name and so unusual. So I went searching Mr Google, but only found one.
Brichet Rawe, baptised 1619 St Kevern, Cornwall.

Enjoy the chicken:)
 
Chicken a bit spicey-for me..no fresh..resorted to sprinkle of chilli flakes. Cheesecake brilliant tho'.

1871 suggested 'Cricket' Nourse /Hyde. Pts John & Lucy. You see why I added other names for initials. writing atrocious.
RG10; Piece: 620; Folio: 18; Page: 32

Quite lost myself in following members here, if I keep this up I'll never get fine-tuned for print off.

Me too, does that mean I can quit now??
 
A few months ago I found a relative, born a girl, census a boys name but married a girls name..I really think it was the accent !
 
I didn't even get it right for Fathers name, should have been William, -not John. Too much reading of excess clutter.
