501 Marries Ellen HELLIER Apr qtr 1904 Tavistock

He may have died at "Amara Cottage" in Sticklepath as there is a death in WW1 recorded at Amara Cottage in Sticklepath. 
BENNETT, William (I858)
 
502 Marries Ellen ROSE 28/12/1891 at St Johns church, Redhill

It is not clear what the situation is at 1921 Census. Various newspapers report around Jan/Feb 1923, that he sued a boarding house in Hampstead because he slipped on the iced steps at the house in Jan 1922. It says that he was from Station Road Redhill, so it is clearly the same person. However I can find no mention in the London area or in Surrey of Harry. Nor can I find his wife Ellen. 
BENNETT, Harry John (I874)
 
503 Marries Emily Sophia BERRY (b 1864, Devon) on 29/5/1885. She is still alive when he dies DISBOROUGH, Alfred William (I554)
 
504 Marries Emmeline ROSE Q4 1892 in Suffolk. COBBOLD, Willie (I1313)
 
505 Marries Florence Annette BUTTER 21/9/1887 at St Andrew, Peckham DESBOROUGH, Charles Samuel (I551)
 
506 Marries Frederick WOODIWISS 10/3/1900 in Portsea NOTTING, Alice Maud (I1296)
 
507 Marries George Henry MERRITT Jan qtr 1898, Midhurst NOTTING, Annie Elizabeth (I1261)
 
508 Marries George PENNY (1864-1940), 15/5/1886 at St Peter's Walworth.

George Penny appears in the 1939 Register as widowed, occupation "Engine Driver Retired", DOB 5/7/1864.

The most likely death for Elizabeth is Q4 1912, West Ham, given that she does not appear to be in the 1921 Census (but this is not checked). 
DESBOROUGH, Elizabeth Frances (I546)
 
509 Marries George SELLS, Q2 1924, Hemel Hempstead BARBER, Florence Annie (I174)
 
510 Marries Henrietta DANCE 25/12/1894, St Mary Newington DESBOROUGH, Alfred Sidney (I553)
 
511 Marries Henry BAKEWELL 23/4/1889 at St Mary Magdelene, Southwark.

There is also a marriage to Samuel ROGERS 29/11/1874 at St Stephen, Rochester Row between Harriet Caroline DESBOROUGH and Samuel ROGERS, but the given age of the bride is 21 (Harriet would be 17, so possible that she would lie, and therefore be consistent with her 1889 marriage as one of spinster). If this is the same person, she (with the correct age) and Samuel are living at the same address in 1881 as Henry BAKEWELL, who is likely to be the person she marries in 1889. However there is no record of Samuel ROGERS dying in the relevant timeframe.

Note that 1911 Census says they have been married 30 years, but this is clearly a typo or more likely an arithmetic mistake 
DESBOROUGH, Harriet (I540)
 
512 Marries Henry David LAKE 1/3/1885 at Holy Trinity, Lambeth IMPEY, Caroline Emily (I412)
 
513 Marries Jane BERRY 10/4/1898, Bethnal Green. BROWN, Walter Charles (I104)
 
514 Marries John WARD 20/10/1866 at Tostock.

Betsey is not obvious in the 1911 Census, nor is there an obvious death in the Manchester area between 1901 and 1911. 
OTTLEY, Betsey (I279)
 
515 Marries Joseph Holaroyde SEEDS 25/12/1914 at St Pauls, Newington.

Possible burial 1/5/1933, Islington (this is Henrietta STAPLETON, though the GRO death index has it as SEEDS). 
STAPLETON, Lottie Henrietta (I315)
 
516 Marries Lily around 1908. MERRIDAN, Bertie James (I1299)
 
517 Marries Louisa SIMS Jul qtr 1889, Portsea

Death details are believed to be valid - the name and his widow are consistent, also consistent with the age given on the BMD details. 
HULL, William George (I1109)
 
518 Marries Lydia MEAD 26/8/1888 at St John's, Brixton HOLLINGSWORTH, Thomas Edward (I574)
 
519 Marries Mary CRAY 11 Jan 1875 at St John, Waterloo Road, Lambeth MORRIS, Charles Watkins (I1335)
 
520 Marries Mary Louisa HARMON at St Annes, Tottenham on 22/2/1903 GUY, John Richard (I1022)
 
521 Marries Nellie MAWBIE Apr qtr 1898 in Ross, Hertfordshire BENNETT, George (I611)
 
522 Marries Pamela Alice COOK 12/8/1888 in Brentnor in Devon.

There are a number of internet sites suggesting he emigrated to Perth in Western Australia, though I have not found evidence that it is this Richard who went. Either way he is not obvious after 1911 Census. 
BENNETT, Richard (I868)
 
523 marries Robert C KENDALL 1931 HOPKINS, Constance Frances Victoria (I480)
 
524 Marries Sarah PRYOR 21 Jul 1838 in Gt. Gaddesden. Both George and Sarah say they lived at Flamstead. Slightly strangely George says he is a Blacksmith. Since he almost certainly is Ag Lab, and this is the most obvious marriage information, So for whatever reason he amplified his position. PIKE, George (I1212)
 
525 Marries Walter SNOW in Tottenham 25/1/1896.

They appear to emigrate to the USA in 1905 and feature in the 1910 Federal Census and subsequent censusses. They both appear to be in Cook County, Chicago at the 1950 US Census, and hence the presumed death and burial information for Kate. If this information is correct, then it is highly likely that Walter died in 1952 and is buried in the same cemetery as Kate.

Internet trees say she died 19 Sep but there is no obvious evidence for this. 
GUY, Kate (I921)
 
526 Marries William CLACK 12/9/1847 at Christ Church, Watney St., Tower Hamlets STEVENSON, Catherine Jane (I204)
 
527 Marries William EADES Dec 1847 qtr, Portsea vol 7, page 314

At the 1851 Census, she is lodging with George RICHARDSON and his family. Her daughter Sarah is there, but not her husband. In 1861 he is not their either, but her occupation, stating that of William's maybe explains this. For both these Censuses, the age given may relate to William rather than her, hence the discrepancy.

At the 1911 Census she states that she has 3 children, all still alive. She also says she was married for 40 years. 
HULL, Sarah (I1115)
 
528 Marries William EARP St Thomas, Portsmouth 22/1/1877. At 1881 Census, her husband is the licensee of the Great Western Tavern, for which her father George was previously the licensee. NOTTING, Ellen Jane (I1259)
 
529 Marries William GRAY 2/6/1895 at St Anne's, Tottenham GUY, Rose M (I1029)
 
530 Marries William James MAY Q3 1906 in Uckfield, Sussex BEECH, Mabel Juniper (I922)
 
531 Marries William John GROVES Q3 1883, Portsea Island.

She was buried in unconsecrated ground 
GUY, Eva Jane (I1198)
 
532 Marries William Nicholls BURDELL 1 Jun 1879 at St Marys, Lambeth MORRIS, Eliza Emily (I1338)
 
533 Marries William Richard BURRELL 4/11/1846 at St Peter Mancroft, Norwich. William appears as a farmer or farm manager in the Censuses after 1851, and so following his death between 1871 and 1881, she appears to take over. We know that Skyles was rich or had contacts or both, so maybe there was money from him too. JUNIPER, Elizabeth Kernison (I988)
 
534 Marries William WEBBER 8/4/1857 at Marylebone Parish Church. William was living in South Moulton, Devon at the time of their marriage, and so presumably knew Elizabeth (nee Jackman) and other Jackmans. WILKEY, Elizabeth (I770)
 
535 Martha Desborough is not obvious after this date. There are no suitable entries in the death registers. There is a record of somebody of the right age at the Fulham workhouse 28/2/1876-1/3/1876, but nothing in the 1871 Census if that is her. There is a marriage to John CROOK in 1880, but the subsequent censuses are not consistent DESBOROUGH, Martha (I531)
 
536 Mary may have gone on to marry Joseph CASSELL or CASTLE in 1798 PARISH, Mary (I657)
 
537 Mary MOORE married William VEY in West Lulworth 1811 however it the earlier Banns she is MORES.

There are a large number of possible Mary Moore/Mores, but this picked because it matches a possible and reasonable death, and also because it is West Lulworth. 
MORES, Mary (I1084)
 
538 Mary St is now Waley St WEBB, Sarah Elizabeth (I159)
 
539 Mary's parents were Francis and Mary, based on the 1871 Census. DEAR, Mary Elizabeth (I35)
 
540 Mary's surname deduced from this being the only reasonable marriage I can find online with Thomas Tubb. Family: Thomas TUBB / Mary KERLEY (F382)
 
541 May have been baptised Susannah

Confusingly there is an Ann Splat who is buried in 1708, but the baptism transcript for our Anne says her mother is Ann, so it is likely her who died in 1708.

She may have died in 1739 (ie just after the youngest child I have here), though this is probably a different Anne. If so, she most likely died 1781, but there is no reason to pick this other than it is the most likely South Tawton burial. 
SPLATT, Anne (I636)
 
542 May have died Norwich Jul qtr 1897 PETTITT, Robert (I336)
 
543 Maybe buried Aug 19th 1789 Benington, but this seems the best option. It does have her age correct and also notes she is a widow IZZARD, Sarah (I380)
 
544 Merchant Navy records indicate that he was 5' 6.5", blue or grey eyes, either "medium" or "fair" complexion, brown hair.
He joined the Training Ship "Mersey" in 1911 and then acted as midshipman rising to Acting Lieutenant in WW1, as part of the Royal Naval Reserve. On 4/9/1918 he was promoted from Acting Lieut to Lieutenant.

White Star Officers books records the following information:-
Joined the Mersey on 5/9/1911
In Aug 1914 with the outbreak of WW1, he transferred to the armed merchant cruiser "Cedric"
He completed his indenture in Sept 1915
He was "proficient in Euclid and Algebra". His height was 5' 6"

The Royal Naval Reserve list of 1919 records that he became sub lieutenant on 4/9/1916, when serving on the "Albatross" The most likely match appears to be a torpedo boat (or "C" class) destroyer launched in 1898. Wikipedia states that in 1916 she was at Scapa Flow providing anti submarine defence for the fleet. The only mention I can find relating to Jutland is in supporting HMS Malborough when it was hit - the ship is mentioned for 1st June 1916

After WW1 he became 1stMate Feb 1921, and his address is given as 60, Park Road, Lowestoft. He became a Master Nov 1922.
In the context of his father's funeral in Aug 1923, the Exeter and Plymouth Gazette says he "was away at sea" to explain his non appearance at the funeral.

In WW2, he was a prisoner at Stalag Luft 3, in the rank of Acting Flying Officer.
He was an excellent sportsman, and there are a number of cups from his time at Sherborne Grammar School.

A number of additional facts are provided by Nick Fenton in his website www.kenfentonswar.com. Ken Fenton was the pilot of a Blenheim IV of 139 Squadron, which was shot down on return from a bombing raid and ditched in the North Sea 12.48pm on 1st July 1941. At 15.30, Air Sea Rescue were alerted and boat HSL 108 (captained by WFJ) was launched from Gorleston in Norfolk. (Other sites confirm this was the 24 Air Sea Rescue Unit). HSL 108 was captured in the North Sea by the Germans that evening after a flying boat attack from Ar 196 and the crew were picked up by Hs 59 and taken to a port near Amsterdam. WFJ reports that he was in the following camps:
Amsterdam 2/7/41-7/7/41
Dulagluft 7/7/41-9/7/41
Oflag IX A/H 9/7/41- Sept 41
Oflag VI B Sept 41-Aug 42
Oflag XXI B Aug 42- Mar 43
Stalag Luft III Mar 43- 29/4/45
(Oflag were camps for Officers). Stalag Luft III was the camp in Poland from which the "Great Escape" happened, though as far as I can tell WFJ had not part in any way on this. But he did take part in the great march back into Germany ahead of the advancing Russians.

See also separate document on this.

1939 register address is maybe now either 23a Water Lane or more likely 25 Water Lane. 
JACKMAN, William Francis (I687)
 
545 Most likely burial Lulworth 24 June 1789 VIE, John (I1020)
 
546 most likely deaths (ie before 1851 Census) include
1844, Q3 in Shoreditch
1845 St George Hannover Sq 
TAYLOR, George Charles (I209)
 
547 Most likely died 1846, but may have remarried 1792 MAYNARD, Elizabeth (I359)
 
548 Most likely from the internet records is that she was baptised 16 Jul 1767, as it is the only rough match for Willian. If so she is the daughter of John and Susan.

Possibly died Apr qtr 1845, but this is just a possible match, not the only possibility. 
GILES, Mary (I363)
 
549 Most likely is that she married Thomas SMITH in Jan qtr 1860, Steyning. She appears to be in Salford at the 1861 Census with a daughter of 11 (maybe should be 11 months), born in Shoreham. She probably dies Oct qtr 1864 at Steyning. JUNIPER, Mary Amelia Taylor (I1101)
 
550 Most likely marriage is to Eliza HARVEY 2/3/1879 St Andrews, Islington (the only slight problem is his father John is given as a timber merchant; but this is close to reality). Assuming this is so the other census data listed is sensible. HOWE, Charles (I905)
