The RUSSELL family are not directly related to me but I link to them.

Their details have been added to my extended family tree with information from Pauline WILLIAMS (RUSSELL). Pauline and myself share common ancestors of William and Martha COLE.

I have no further inforomtion on James BARBER who is the grandson of James POWELL and Martha POWELL (RUSSELL). I only became aware of him while looking at the 1901 census above which slowhands posted.

Many thanks for the information. I think some of it does belong to my ancestry and I am now trying to piece it together.

Hello Dave

Thanks for your email. Can you tell me what relation James Barber was to you. I had an Uncle Jimmy born 1897 and died 1972. He was a pianist at a Kings cross cinema in silent days. He joined a ship's orchestra when talkies arrived. I know he married a lady who was the cousin of Josephine Lee (originally called Klee) and professional pianist. I think he married again and had a son called Jim born about 1931.

It could be the same person. Look forward to hearing from you.

As a point of interest I have a Martha RUSSELL in my extended family tree who was born at Ruardean on 17th February 1852. I have no details of who she married but I do know her parents were William and Mary RUSSELL.

I am tryng to trace my ancestors. I know that george meek married martha russell on 25 july 1869 at st johns church, dean forest. They had a daughter called sabra who later changed her name to bessie. She was born on 12 december 1870 at ruardean. What we are also trying to find out is if martha meek (born martha russell) married a second time to james powell born 1860 at harbour hill, ross, hereford
