Over the last year, we have worked with National World to secure an agreement allowing us to digitise and publish more of their content. National World currently have over 200 local and regional titles across the United Kingdom and we are diligently working through them as quickly as possible. While the Portsmouth Evening News is on the plan, please note that turnaround times may vary depending on the accessibility of the material for digitisation.

I am working on our family history and would like to find (if exists) a document that indicates a place of birth for a Margaret Danner. Margaret is the daughter of my Great-great-great Grandfather, James Cummings. I have found a 1920 Census Record that shows she was living with her son, James Danner & family in Chelsea. A place of birth is noted on this document but is not readable on FamilySearch.com or MyHeritage.com. She passed in 1975 and is buried in Hayes next to her husband, Samuel Danner. They were married in Wandsworth in 1949. Do you have a death record of her there in VChelsea or can you read the place of birth on the 1930 Census record ? Family letters indicate she was born in Hammersmith . 'Someone' has modified her Find A Grave bio with a birth location of Scotland. However, I have asked and so far no one can confirm with documentation that she was born in Scotland. Her father, James Cummings, is per family letters, to have also been born in Hammersmith abt. 1923. We have hit a wall with him also because apparently there were no birth records recorded during that time period. We can find no death record for him where he passed in Chelsea. Thank you in advance for any information. Regards, Nancy Minter

Im looking for any details on Canon Walter John Smith in the Portsmouth area. He was a church minister in the mid 1959s. His father was Walter Ernest Smith and his mother was Kate Cousins. I would love to know move about him if possible. I don't know when he was ordained so this is making it a little hard to trace him.
