551 Name deduced from mother of Alfred's children, and then best marriage match BENDY, Eliza Elizabeth (I284)
 
552 Name given is based on most common records, but note in 1881 Census, he is Albert.

Lots of possible birth records as either Alfred or Albert.

Alfred's school admission details (for Rolls Road School) lists his address in 1879 as 6, ?Ravel? Rd; probably close enough to the baptism records.

Death details are difficult to confirm but the following provides something consistent for both Albert and Edith.

Albert appears to have died Q1, 1955, Hackney, vol 5c, p893, aged 79. Buried at Abney Park Cemetry, Stoke Newington, plot section B01, Index 8S12.
Edith appears to have died Q4, 1961, Tonbridge, vol 5b, p1034, aged 88. Probate details indicate she died 26/11/1961, 105 St Johns Road, Tonbridge Wells, with the money going to Barclays Bank. But there is a record at Abney Park Cemetry of Edith Mary Webb died 1961 aged 88 in plot section B01, Index 8S15. Edith being in Tunbridge Wells is consistent with where Alfred died too.
 
WEBB, Alfred (I9)
 
553 Name of house is unclear; best interpretation used. Source (S356)
 
554 Nancy married Nigel WOODMAN. One internet site has him as Nigel Stuart Barrington WOODMAN (1897-1958), and a widower when he married Nancy. JACKMAN, Nancy Maria Victoria (I720)
 
555 Navy records of 1932 say he was not married, and he entered service 15/9/1923, as a naval cadet, then a midshipman, then Sub Lt 16/10/1930 and then Lt 16/11/1932.
On 21/10/1941 he was awarded the Polish Cross of Valour (Krzyz Walecznych) for recognition of services related to the Polish withdrawal from France in 1940
The Navy list of Oct 1942 says he was a Lt Commander at 16/11/1940, with a DSO
The Navy list of 1958 says he was a Commander at 31/12/1944, with a DSO and DSC.

A newspaper article from 1956 gives some other information about him...
from Liverpool Echo Thurs May 10th 1956
***********************************
WAJ was Service Advisor to the permanent British delegate at the UN, appointed Liverpool's admiralty liaison officer in May 1956 from Mon 14 May.....

....entered Dartmouth college as a cadet at the age of 13. In 1927 he won the coveted King's Dick, after being commissioned in 1921. (Not clear exactly what this is, but believed to be a sword or other trophy for being the top scoring cadet of the year)

During he war he commanded 5 destroyers, winning the D.S.O. in 1941, for the part he played in endeavouring to intercept the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, when in command of the destroyer Whitshed. in 1944 he was awarded the D.S.C. for successfully intercepting an armed raider in the destroyer Worcester, then under his command.....

Married to a Frenchwoman, Commander Juniper has a daughter aged 17 and a son aged 8
*********************************
Two years later, the Liverpool Echo of 31 May 1958 said this
*********************************
[He] retired today
.......
Before taking up his appointment, ...[he] was in New York for two years as Service advisor to the British delegation at the United Nations.

*********************************
He is recorded as sailing to NewYork on the Queen Elizabeth which left Southampton on 27 Aug 1953, with the last address given as "Ministry of Defence, London". His wife was Nicole, and his son was Daniel. In the 1954, 1955 and 1956 Civil Service list, he is described as "Military Advisor to the United Kingdom Representative, United Nations Organisation"

The death index is presumably correct as it has the birth date on it. It is curious that probate for William Anthony Juniper was given in Ipswich to somebody who died 21 June 1986 at 124 College Road, Norwich. It is difficult to find other information on any different William Anthony Juniper, but Norwich is not Stevenage. 
JUNIPER, William Anthony (I1094)
 
556 No evidence found of a marriage to Benjamin, but between the 1851 and 1861 Censuses Mary Ann changed her surname from WEBB to FREEMAN.

On 20 Feb 1858, the Poor Law and Settlement records documentation says:-
"Benjamin Freeman 56 cohabiting with Mary Ann Webb 56 4 B children Joseph 12 born in Coventry St Geo 9 born in Coventry St Mary Ann 7 Coventry St James 3 born Bancroft Place xxxxxxxxxxx living 3 Parliament Place Cambridge Road he never etc(?) states born Solator(?) St- can give no information as to fathers settlement - was in Whitechapel 5 months Casual(?)" 
Family: Benjamin FREEMAN / Mary Ann LOVELL (F14)
 
557 No futher information is obvious in Census or BMD indices. The 1911 Census for her mother declares 1 child died, which could be Grace... JUNIPER, Grace Gertrude Lena Vey (I1104)
 
558 No info on birth etc in IGI. Baptism details are possible/probable (nothing else on internet sites) but not definite. Parents names come from this.

At 1851 the age has a line through it making it difficult to read. 67 looks most likely, although the "7" looks different to other 7s. It is possibly "63" which is certainly more accurate. 
HULL, Joseph (I1123)
 
559 No mention of his wife in the probate so presumably she had died. He left £36288 in his will. HOPSON, William Samuel (I992)
 
560 No obvious 1841 Census record. The most likely is in Lambeth living with Ann Jackman (aged 6), and Francis Jackman, all of whom are from outside the county.

There is a Rosabel Jackman bapt 25/4/1849 in N Tawton to Elizabeth Ann Jackman (unmarried) but it seems unlikely to be the same family. 
JACKMAN, Elizabeth Ann (I764)
 
561 No obvious census entry for 1861 or a marriage between 1851 and 1861 TAYLOR, Sarah Elizabeth (I66)
 
562 No obvious census, marriage or death after 1871. Most likely is she died in Kensington Jul qtr 1877, vol 1a, p100, aged 26. WEBB, Mary Ann Freeman (I64)
 
563 No obvious information on birth or death. Possible baptism on IGI 15/12/1739 - St Botolph without Aldgate - makes her 18 when she married; or St Dunston, Stepney - 2 possibilities in 1728 and 1729. If I had to choose between these options I would go for 1739, and hence this has been used. SKINNER, Ann (I327)
 
564 No obvious record in 1841 Census, nor in death indices. However there are a lot of DAVENPORTs in the NW, and if he had relatives and went to join them, it is possible.
 
DAVENPORT, William (I556)
 
565 No obvious record in 1841 Census, nor in death indices. However there are a lot of DAVENPORTs in the NW, and if he had relatives and went to join them, it is possible. DAVENPORT, Thomas (I557)
 
566 No obvious records after 1841 but there is a John LOVELL in 1861 Census with Eliz born Buckinghamshire (note 1841 says out of county birth) and g/d Susan, but not yet managed to make anything of this. He is given as a labourer, which is not very consistent with his woodcutter occupation earlier. (But he is a labourer at Catherine's baptism)

Note also a burial of John Lovell in 1847 at St Botolph, though of course this may be his son, or indeed somebody else entirely.

See also notes and relationship with Catherine, his daughter.

There is also a marriage at Thornborough in Buckinghamshire 29/10/1810 to Elizabeth HILL (note the 1861 Census above says that Elizabeth comes from Northamptonshire), there is a high chance this is the same John Lovell. What is less clear is whether it is the same person as fathers Mary Ann...... 
LOVELL, John (I26)
 
567 None of the potential marriages seem to fit in, so most likely would seem to be death 1837, Thingoe (near Bury) or 1847, Stow. There is no obvious 1841 census record so the 1837 seems most likely, however it is Stow that covers Woolpit. MOTHERSOLE, Elizabeth (I356)
 
568 Not obvious what happens to Henry. He does appear in Aylesbury 1851-1871 and dies in 1875 there, as a farmer married to Mary. There is no obvious record of a marriage to Mary (Mary Ann in 1875) - the only sensible marriage is 1854, but Henry's father given as William. IMPEY, Henry (I431)
 
569 Not on 1881 Census NASH, Henry George (I1044)
 
570 Not sure what happens after 1881. She is not obvious in the 1891 with same surname, no obvious marriages, and no obvious deaths. GUY, Fanny (I1150)
 
571 Note - 1851 Census says birthplace is Bournemouth, all other data says Portsmouth

Cannot find in 1901 Census... he probably died 1899 Tottenham.

Also worth noting that there is a Henry Guy born and buried in 1847 to James and Edith (THORN) from Portsea....James and Edith married 28/6/1836; I wonder if the James's are cousins. 
GUY, Henry Joseph (I1028)
 
572 Note - gravestone of WA Jackman says death 24 Jul 1955

Digby Hospital was also known as Exeter (lunatic) asylum in its earlier days. I assume that Arthur was a patient rather than a worker there. 
JACKMAN, Arthur John (I785)
 
573 Note - he was baptised about 6 months after his parents married. VEY, William (I960)
 
574 Note - his father is a Baker according to the 1841 Census, so this is a trade that definitely is in the family (though in 1851 he is listed as a Tanner). However these are the best match and are accepted WELTON, Thomas Edward (I291)
 
575 Note - In the 1851 Census he is there with George FREEMAN's (Fanny's sister) brother, but as a sibling (ie called Henry FREEMAN), rather than a nephew. This is assumed to be an error.

Married Elizabeth CLARK Apr qtr 1857 Hemel Hempstead vol 3a, p394.

He was convicted of Larceny and sentenced to 12 months at Hertford on 15/10/1866. The local newspapers add some colour, but the crime was for the theft of 7 fowl

By 1881 Census, Elizabeth describes herself as a widow but no sign of Henry in the death indexes from 1871 to 1881. However noting Bertie's birth, and assuming he was the father, that would suggest he died after about 1876. 
MERRIDON, Henry (I78)
 
576 Note - In the 1851 Census he is there with George FREEMAN's (Fanny's sister) brother, but as a sibling (ie called Joseph FREEMAN), rather than a nephew. This is assumed to be an error.
 
MERRIDON, Joseph (I79)
 
577 Note - In the 1851 Census she is there with George FREEMAN, and her mother Fanny, but with a surname of FREEMAN. This is assumed to be an error.

There is no obvious birth or baptism record, perhaps because Fanny was cautious about going public about there being no father.

It is not clear what happens after this. I can find no clear record, maybe the most likely is the death of a Maria Kezia MERRINGTON in 1865 in Shoreditch.
 
MEREDEN, Keziah (I1314)
 
578 Note - on the marriage cert for Anne, and George(?), he is John William Webb. However this is not how he in on the birth certificate, nor the Censuses so the addition is probably something that the child concerned added.

Best match on deaths may be
Dec 1892 - John Webb a 48 West Ham
or Sept 1895 - John Webb a53 West Ham (this is attached to the tree of a different John Webb - http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/tree/18025726/person/638091939)
These dates may be consistent with a John WEBB as an inmate at the Strand Union Workhouse, Edmonton in 1991. The birth place is correct as Bethnal Green, he gives his age as 53 (not 49) and says he is unmarried. On the whole this seems unlikely. However the other 1891 Census options seem even less likely. So I think he died before 1891, and Elizabeth, his widow, just lied to say she was married. In this case, possible options would be Oct qtr 1884 Woolwich, aged 45, Islington, Apr qtr 1891 (aged 50).

There is a Jno Webb buried in Camden on 4/3/1895, though of course it is highly likely to be somebody else. 
WEBB, John (I22)
 
579 Note - the address where John is in the 1871 Census is the same as his brother James is at the 1861 Census.

married to Mary Ann TURNER 17/8/1865 St Thomas, Portsmouth. James his father describes himself as a "Gilder", and his sister Sarah is a winess. 
GUY, John Richard (I1146)
 
580 Note - the way in which the registers have been scanned is somewhat confusing - a number of sites put the year as 1740. JACKMAN, Alexander (I783)
 
581 Note - there is another Emma Cocksedge in Hessett at the 1841 census, aged 10, but not with Henry. I have found this Emma (who is with John and Sophia(SULLEY) on the LDS database as christened 6/6/1830). So I conclude that the later census's and Emma's uinderstanding of her age is wrong. COCKSEDGE, Emma (I568)
 
582 Note at the 1891 Census is Annie, her daughter, aged 19. Not sure who this is, but might be Mary

Cannot find an obvious 1911 census and there is no conclusive death between 1901 and1911, but the most likely would be Jan qtr 1904, Poplar, aged 67. 
BERTRAND, Susan Amelia (I89)
 
583 Note bishops transcription of baptisms has this on 19th May 1743.

There appear to be a number of possible marriages and burials in Halifax, and there is nothing to choose between them. 
HOLT, John (I492)
 
584 Note Elizabeth was baptised at the parish chuch, not the non conformist chapel. But the other information seems reasonable, and there is no obvious other Wilkey family in the area. WILKEY, Elizabeth (I725)
 
585 Note IGI record says birth, but assumed to be baptism, albeit that the birth was probably not long before.

Burial at Preston is maybe a little way from Weymouth, but is probably where husband William is later buried, so this is adopted. 
MOON, Martha (I1085)
 
586 Note in the register, Richard is described as "daughter", but assumed to be a mistake on gender rather than name MOORE, Richard (I774)
 
587 Note that at baptism, Harriett's parents are William and Ann, whilst at 1841 Census they are William and Mary. However all the other details line up, so presumably Harriett's mother was Mary Ann EMERY, Harriett (I520)
 
588 Note that at the 1861 Census, she is at the home of the Conon of Grosvenor Chapel.

Susannah was baptised again into the RC church (as "Susanna") on 16 Nov 1898, I think following her "conversion" 
JACKMAN, Susanna (I709)
 
589 Note that at the time of the 1861 Census he is quoted as married, although the IGI record has him marrying the following July.

Henry's parents are variously Killop and Mary (HCC transcription), Caleb and Mary (sister Harriet's baptism, HCC transcription), Hillop and Mary (IGI). 
NASH, Henry (I1043)
 
590 Note that Calbourne is about 2 miles from Shalfleet and more importantly is even further from the coast, and for instance Yarmouth. However father Peter is described as a "boatman"

Maybe married Annie and had a son Clive - family recollections but very vague, and probably more likely refers to Edward JUNIPER (b1860)

He was indentured into the Merchant Navy on 21 Aug 1837, aged 16, for 4 years

Was master of merchant ship "Anne" at the time of his death, based on the burial register. The Sussex Advertiser of 17 Dec 1844 says this:-
"on the 2nd ult [ie Nov], at Smyrna, Captain Edward Wolliner [sic] Juniper, of the brig Saunders, unfortunately drowned by the upsetting of a boat, second son of Mr P Juniper of Shoreham, Sussex, and nephew of Mr Juniper of Mundesley in Norfolk" 
JUNIPER, Edward Woolmer (I918)
 
591 Note that John Webb was one of the witnesses. I assume this is the same John Webb who Mary later lived with. Note also the similarity of occupation at the 1891 Census for John Webb and Henry Dean. Their son Henry was born 4 months if not less after the marriage.

Henry and Mary appear to have gone separate ways sometime between 1892 (when Albert was born) and 1894 (taken from 1911 Census for Henry when he said he had been married to Edith for 17 years). However there is no obvious divorce or marriage for either of them to their new partner. 
Family: Henry Hays DEAN / Mary Elizabeth DEAR (F160)
 
592 Note that Robert's baptism details are given in Julian months (ie 7br is Sept etc., with December being recorded as 10br).

It is not clear exactly where is "Ham". It doesn't seem like a shorthand for Hamworthiy, and in addition to Hamworthy was Ham Copse, and buildings nearby, maybe farm buildings, or maybe accommodation. However it is clear that this is in the same region as is now covered by Hamworthy and Ham Common.
 
TUBB, Robert (I1243)
 
593 Note that the baptism records have his birth at 1877 but this is assumed to be a mistake, deliberate or otherwise.
The birth address (as given on his City admission papers), is Skinners Place, Leadenhall Market, Barking. However there is no Leadenhall Market or Skinners Place in Barking, and based on the later Census, he is assumed to be born in Leadenhall Market in the City of London and he was not born in Barking.
In some Census's he is Harry Bingley Woodman, possibly after the death of his father(?)

He marries Emma GREEN on 15/5/1901 in Hackney 
WOODMAN, Harry Bingley (I888)
 
594 Note that the enumerator made a mistake, and so the entry for this address could be no 19 Bolton St. Source (S1465)
 
595 Note that the wedding is witnessed by Jno WILKEY, assumed to be Thomas's brother and married to Mary's sister, Elizabeth Family: Thomas WILKEY / Mary JACKMAN (F262)
 
596 Note the IGI record has him as John Beasley JUNIPER, but all the other details make sense, so assumed to be a typo. John often says he was born at Hurst Castle, this is close to Milford on Sea, where the IGI record has this baptism.

John variously calls himself John Woolmer and John Woolner. There are definitely documents, eg Mary Jane's wedding where he signs himself Woolner, but until I can see the baptism info, I am leaving him as Woolmer.

The White's directory of 1885 has him as "Shipwright RN, 157 Fratton Grove [Road?]"

When he retired on Sat 31st Jan 1891, the Portsmouth Evening News for the 3rd Feb said
"...established shipwright .... completed 36 years service...and on retiring from the service received from his workmates a testimonial in the form of a pipe and a handsome Malacca cane, the latter bearing an appropriate inscription on its silver mounting. The presentation was made in the gunnery pattern store by Mr Andrews, Inspector of Government fittings, who testified to the respect and esteem in which the recipient was held."

He left £1320 to Edward, inspector of smiths, and Alfred, a broker

John Jackman (b1926) says that he "brought back Queen Victoria's body from Osbourne". Given that he was 69 at the time and given his lack of other obvious connections, I assume this means that he was part of the crew (or an honorary crew, or most likely part of the flotilla of ships that accompanied the royal yacht, Alberta, from Cowes to Portsmouth on 1/2/1901), perhaps as somebody who would have known the local waters very well. But I cannot find anything that would provide more clarity on what he may have done. 
JUNIPER, John Woolmer (I1099)
 
597 Note there were 2 children who had died by 1911 Census.

At the 1921 Census, they are visitors. I wonder if they were on holiday in Devon..... 
Family: William James WEBB / Edith Maud SMALE (F45)
 
598 Note this baptism implies there are 2 John's in the same family. The older John (b 1761) is still alive, based on the burial information, but it is possible that they are the same person, with people being unsure of the aga of the John b1761 at his burial. ELLIS, John (I955)
 
599 Note transcription error in the birth year in the IGI index. The baptism records seem to clearly say 1785 as birth year HILBECK, Edward (I1130)
 
600 Note, there is a baptism of a John to John and Jane Jackman, shopkeeper, in N. Tawton in 11 Aug 1833. Although not our John, it is presumably a relative, and perhaps I will find out who this is.

John built up a saddlery business. This is covered in a separate document, but this is a summary.

The first time I can find him at 110, Wardour St is an advert on the 26 May 1856. Given the frequency of these adverts it is likely that this was very shortly after he set up business there. The advert says "from Messrs Peats and Co", so is that his former employer?. On 8th May 1867, he took over the business at 138 Long Acre, the previous owner having become bankrupt.
 
JACKMAN, John (I713)
