Hi mamatres, and a big welcome to the forum, your computer skills look fine to me. Thanks for your extra information, bound to be of help to someone. It's all these "little snippets" that help build the "bigger pictures".

I think this is George's birth record from the Glostershire Archives website, I see he was given the name of an illustrious man of the Dean, Sir Charles Dilke MP. Is there a family connection , or was this because he was born at the Dilke Hospital near Cinderford, East Dean ?;

This is the excellent and user-friendly website it came from
http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/bmd/SimpleSearch.aspx

Here's a little background about Sir Charles Dilke, and the excellent hospital everyone knew as "The Dilke" since it opened in 1923, I hope it's of interest.

Thought it must have been mentioned here in the past

----------------------------

Finally, this definitive Dilke Hospital website is new to me, but I'll be revisiting it very soon indeed !. By pointing one's mouse at the blue "Dilke" heading it displays a long drop-down menu, click on any heading and it gives a huge amount of detailed background history of the Hospital and related Forest doctors etc, a superb site !

Looking for a section relevant to the time George was born gave this page, which I find delightful as I fondly recall enjoying the summer fetes at the Dilke during my Cinderford childhood in the 60s & 70s. Long after I'd moved away we've made a point of visiting home so my own son - sadly not a Vurrister by birth - could also enjoy Dilke Fetes since he was a babe-in-arms in the summer of 1997. Happy days!

This highly-recommended website has other sections relevant to the FoD area, including St Margaret's Church and Courtfield House at Welsh Bicknor.

Yess she was born a CARPENTER and registered in 1895 , then baptised 1900, mother Alice had by then married Amos GOULDING - hence the confusion on 1901 census, and then marries as a GOULDING

Hi,
I don't know whether I am related to you, but my granfather was a George Brown who at some point lived in Silver Street, Mitcheldean, poss late 40's ish. I am pretty sure that he married a Goulding though. (Don't know her first name though). George was born 1882. In latter years, the family moved to Eastern Avenue.

His father Henry Brown was born in Coleford abt 1855. My family, in the 1901 census, are down as living in Church House Mitcheldean.

Members of the family in 1901:
Henry Brown Head aged 46
Elizabeth Wife aged 45
William Son 21
George Som 19
Jane Daughter 15
Clara daughter 11
Lewis son 7

I am researching Browns in the Mitcheldean area.
My grandfathers younger sister, Gladys Carpenter born about 1900 married George Brown and they had quite a big family and lived all their married life in Mitcheldean, At one time they lived in Silver Strret. Any little amount of information would gratefully received.
