Simone,

You make it sound so easy.. & yes I do understand now

This has been on the back burner for yonks!! simply because I couldn't find much

James Barnes Hoare had a brother Charles Hoare, he married my g.fathers sister Sarah Fairhurst..
Charles was a witness at their nieces' murder trial 1918.. this family played a huge part in my families life. He sent her to stay with James B Hoare in Norfolk to try and stop what was happening..unfortunately, it didn't work.

I have much work to do on my tree now, thanks to you
I am delighted!!

blimey Gray, nothing boring in your tree is there

what's with Emily marrying 2 chinese men and having kiddies to Mr Hoare as well keep us posted... I'm intrigued

[Gray]

I don't have time for 'Real Life' with my tree

Keeps me from 'Gas escapes' 'kids', returning' & leaving again.. All the usual humdrum things..

Oh what a saga...

Foo Ah, of 1B Kent street Liverpool died 25 July 1960. Administration Newcastle upon Tyne 18 December to Emily Foo widow and Marjorie Chen ( wife of Ah Soo Chen) Effects £6137 18s 7d

In 1960, £6,137 18s 7d would have the same spending worth of 2005's £93,910.32!
Possibly very close to £100,000 today.

Hi DS..

Yes, it is a SAGA isnt it!!

Was only saying recently to MaryA.. How come I came down the line with no money

Ah well; That's life and it, wouldn't change any of it.. has certainly been grand!

Just to say I've really enjoyed this post and fantastic replies.
Very rare do we have queries for Chinese folk.

[Bertieone]

Just read through and some excellent contributions, well done all.

Forgive me saying, I have a new hero, father of the groom, Foo Fook Dat, absolute magic.

[MaryA]

father of the groom, Foo Fook Dat, absolute magic.

I must admit I did wonder whether that was real when I saw it in the Register

It's been quite a saga, great chase Simone, when you get the bit between your teeth you certainly run with it. I've enjoyed coming up to date with all your results.

[Gray]

Good job the transcriber could actually read... Could have written Hoo Fook Dat!

Brian. I bet there are many headache with mistranscriptions in Chinese name. Wondered how it worked, but suppose they had translators,people like Emily probably
