Christening: Date: 10 FEB
Place: St Botolph, Aldergate, London, England
Individual Note: Born 14 Jan 1833 in central London. A death of a Fanny Treacher in London in 1840 and lack of concrete marriage or census data later suggest she died then.

If right, there should be a Fanny Chandler age c. 48 in 1881 census married to a George or widowed. No there is not, the closest is Frances A. Chandler age 50, born Spitfields, Middlesex:

No obvious Chandler match, unless age or POB wrong.

Individual Note: Supposedly died at age 99, which would mean about 1947. Alternatively, my mother recalls the news of his death being broken at the outbreak of WWII. He certainly lived until his 90th birthday (from a photo). My grandmother and mother remember his children but sadly we have lost all contact. He spent his latter years in Bognor Regis. Possibly Jewish, he always wore a little round close fitting cap (Source - my mother). - Michael Collinson, Sept 2005, May 2007
1851 Son of Reuben Allison, butcher and Mary, living in Stranton, Co. Durham
1861 Not found in England Census at all BUT probably appears in 1861 Wales Census as born c1845 Hartlepool and son of Richard Allison
1871 Single, age 23, living in Lambeth as a Chemist's assistant, born Elwick, Durham.
1881 Single, age 33, living in Lambeth as a Chemist, born Hart, Durham.
1891 Married, age 43, Born "Durham Hart"
1901 Census: Born "Durham Hart". Living 55, Stockwell Road, Lambeth.
See also wife's notes.
Note: Hart is a small village north-west of Hartlepool. Elwick [not Elswick ] is another small village 2km away.
Jan 2007: Breakthrough? His family now appear in the online 1851 Census where they did not before.
Sept 2005: Still trying to work out who his parents were. Now his birth record is available, paying da money would resolve things. Meantime, there is more than one Allison family with Elwick/Hart connections around 1848:
1) Joseph Allison (b c1816 Easington) and Dorothy ?Gibson. Their daughter Jane Mary was born in Elwick c1848.
2) William Sheraton Allison b c1818 Stranton, Co. Durham and Margaret Donkin. His son Ralph Donkin Allison was born c1853. Like Reuben Ralph's POB is sometimes shown as Hart, sometimes Elwick in Censi.
3) Reuben Allison and Catherine. I included them purely because of the name Reuben Allison, they are the only two in England BUT there are now two other pieces of circumstantial information
a) Reuben's birth is registered in 1847 in the Stockton registration district. Earlier in the year, Reuben Allison the elder gets married in the same district to either Simpson, Isabella or Tomsett, Margaret.
b) the Carmethenshire connection, see Richard Allison below.
4) Richard Allison and unknown. The only Reuben Allison in UK (excl. Scotland) 1861 Censi is Reuben Allison age 16 born Hartlepool living with his father (only) in Llannelly, Carmarthenshire. Curiously, Reuben Allison above married a Catherine born Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire. Are Richard and Reuben brothers perhaps??

Source - Personal Email from "Beth", Elizabeth Robinson, a descendent of Ralph D Allison, previously thought a possible brother (if father was William Sheraton Allison).
Yes, that's the Margaret I was after. All I know is where she was living in the early 1920s so I'll have to wait until the 1921 census is released - Aaarggh
Not sure what you are trying to find out but it seems you are looking for parents of Reuben to establish if he is Ralph D Allison's brother. This may help
1847 REUBEN H-A-10-A-5 Hartlepool.
If you check with Hartlepool registrar office they should confirm if the parent details match
