| 751 | Surname is based on the more likely of the two that appear in the marriage register. SHUTE is preferred over WADE as there is no suitable Elizabeth WADE born around the right time in or near Brighton (assuming that the Census data on birth is correct). There is a small risk that this is inaccurate. | SHUTE, Eliza Jane (I1191)
|
| 752 | Surname is based on the most (maybe only) obvious surname from BMD index marr Apr qtr 1858, Southwark. This is consistent with being born 3/2/1837 in Leyton to William and Frances. However there is not a very high degree of certainty that this is our Frances. The1891 Census implies that she had been deaf and dumb from childhood, along with her husband | HILLS, Frances (I129)
|
| 753 | Surname taken from BMD indexes. | GEARY, Mary (I143)
|
| 754 | Susan Jenkins appears with a son Arthur in the 1901 Census for ?17 Longby? Rd. Tooting. Her age at 31 and place of birth (Battersea) is correct, as are the details for Arthur. The only thing that is incorrect is that she says she is a widow (and slightly confusingly "wife"). The "head" is another woman, single, Fanny TIPPETT(?) from Cornwall. Is this an indication of some falling out with her husband? | BENNETT, Susannah (I680)
|
| 755 | Susannah witnessed Henry's second marriage in 1842 and was unmarried at the time. | DAVENPORT, Susannah (I561)
|
| 756 | Suzanna's name deduced from her father in the 1871 Census, so does need to be checked. | Family: Solon BENNETT / Suzanna HATHERLEY (F263)
|
| 757 | The "south view place" element of the address is not clear, so best guess from the enumerator's writing | Source (S645)
|
| 758 | The 1841 Census is unclear, I think it says "Wllm" but it is written between the lines, obviously a later addition and could be anything.... | WILKEY, William Jackman (I697)
|
| 759 | The 1851 and 1861 Census information is not certain, although it is certainly possible and consistent with other facts. There is no obvious 1841 information. The death information given to the church for the burial register appears to be confused. There does not appear to have been a "Portland Road", and it does not appear to be Great Portland St. Charlotte St was in Marylebone, and so Charlotte St, Marylebone is probably the correct address. | DISBOROUGH, Mary Ann (I521)
|
| 760 | The 1851 Census which gives her birth location is "Gamblingay", however there is no such place. Since the enumerator would not have known Cambridgshire, it is assumed that he misheard and/or Sarah (who was head of household) was not clear when she spoke. IGI has a Sarah RATFORD born to John and Ann, bapt 24/3/1780 at Gamlingay. So this is perhaps a transcription error, and she was bapt 1770? At the 1851 Census is her granddaughter Maria, aged 12, but no obvious link in 1841 Census or later.... The burial records say she was 85 when she died. | RETFORD, Sarah (I332)
|
| 761 | The 1871 Census gets the age very wrong, but it seems unlikely there were 2 daughters called Elizabeth, and it is clearly this Elizabeth who goes on to marry in 1878. The Census enumerator is not particularly clear in his writing, so it is assumed to be a misunderstanding. Marries Edward Henry BUTLER 25/8/1878 at St Mary Lambeth | MORRIS, Elizabeth Agnes (I1337)
|
| 762 | The 1911 Census implies he married Elizabeth J in 1881. The 1881 Census implies they were married, with a 2 year old, so perhaps married 1878-9. But there are no obvious marriages that fit this, and so they may have just been living as husband and wife. | DESBOROUGH, Edward James (I549)
|
| 763 | The 1911 Census is interesting in that Emma has not signed it. However as best as I can tell it appears to match her writing from her marriage certificate, so she probably did fill it in. The enumerator on the following page has put "Mrs Webb" in as the householder. In the householder place on the census, she has written "William Webb", presumably being her oldest (surviving?????) son, although it looks as if she started to write "Thomas....", being her oldest son on the premises. She reports 5 children alive and 5 having died in this census. Have found Emma in Electoral Rolls up to 1927 in Elsa St., Stepney Her DOB does not match the 1871 Census, but this one has been picked as the father matches that on her marriage certificate. There is an Emma SADLER in the 1861 Census (where the father appears to be a widow), but still no birth record whatever year is picked. It is of course possible that she was born about 1860 but subsequently grew up thinking it was 1863.... | SADLER, Emma (I162)
|
| 764 | The 1939 Register has 2 names blacked out... examination of the BMD details for people born to mother with maiden name Jackman suggests they were Ruth HF in 1923 and Albert in 1927. All the births were in Exeter, where they were in 1939. | Family: Robert Montague READ / Hannah Maria Winifred JACKMAN (F318)
|
| 765 | The 1939 Register has him living with Winifred M FROST, and also there is Rose KING (a widow) there. This implies that she is his mother in law, and this means he married Q3 1929 in Wandsworth. He appears in electoral rolls in 1921 (with his mother only) in Clapham, then Epsom 1934, (wife is Winifred Maude), 1937, 1939. In 1945 only Winifred is there, but he may still be fighting. There is no obvious death records in the war ... the only obvious records point to him in the Royal Artilillary, but there is no definitive evidence of either of them after 1945. | FROST, Ernest Edward (I519)
|
| 766 | At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. | Living (I1292)
|
| 767 | The 1939 Register is not ideal, but seems very likely, and matches the best BMD index entry. He is married to Ivy, who then marries O'DELL, so it is likely that George dies soon after 1939. | THORPE, George Henry (I629)
|
| 768 | The actual address is not clear... it looks like 5, ?Winterslow? Place, but the writing is unclear, and the housing blocks are not obvious on any map. | Source (S998)
|
| 769 | The address is unclear, it looks like "Hendleys" | Source (S545)
|
| 770 | The ancestry data for Anne has been selected on the basis that although it does show she was born in Herts, ie contrary to the 1841 Census, there is no obvious data on the internet for an alternative birth or baptism. It may be that Tring, being some distance from Hemel Hempstead or Bovingdon was just mistakenly said to be in a different county. | GHOST, Anne (I76)
|
| 771 | The available data on Charlotte is unclear and in some cases conflicting.The date of her baptism is assumed correct; she and 2 siblings were baptised together, the father listed as deceased, so it seems possible that she was the youngest and baptised following the death of her father. The 1939 Register records a DOB of 23/12/1855, so presumably she was sure of her birthday and so I have guessed the year as 1854. Census's and marriages give contradicatory ages. Charlotte was unlucky (or worse)... Robert MONGER was alive at the 1881 Census, but by 1885 she had married Thomas Moore, however by Q4 1888 she was marrying Charles POWELL (in Petersfield). Charles was in hospital at the 1939 Register and he died very soon afterwards (Q4, 1939). According to the 1881 Census, her daughter Louisa was 9, ie born 1872. | PROBETTS, Charlotte Caroline (I197)
|
| 772 | The baptism chosen is the one in or near Spreyton that makes Mary as young as possible at marriage. Even so this would put her as 29. | MIDDLETON, Mary (I665)
|
| 773 | The baptism record says she was born Oct 1852, but the BMD indices confirm this is 1851. It is not clear what happened after this.... she does not appear to be in the 1861 Census, but of course the rest of the family is dispersed. The most likely is she died and this is recorded in Steyning Q4, 1860. Steyning is close to where some of the family are in 1861 (Caroline in Shoreham, Edmund in Brighton). | HARDING, Anna Amelia (I1134)
|
| 774 | The baptism records are clear that he is born 1860. But it may be that there is a mistake and it should be 1861, which is then more consistent with the Census records, though even then it is not definite. So for the time being it is assumed he was born 1860. | FRASER, William (I798)
|
| 775 | The baptism records are Dec 1737 and then follows Jan 1737, the latter assumed to be a mistake and it should be Jan 1738 | HOLT, Sara (I486)
|
| 776 | The baptism records are unclear - but the birth is definitely given as 7th XXXX 1856. The first letter appears to be either a J, T or F. The birth was registered Q1 1857, and July looks like the best fit to the handwriting, so this is assumed correct. Birth registered as Susan Ann, but the parents could have meant Susannah, and this is how she is recorded at the 1861 Census. There is very little information that is reliable. She might be a domestic servant in 1881 for Joseph and Susannah ELDRIDGE (aged 23). | TAYLOR, Susan Ann (I92)
|
| 777 | The baptism records note him as a pauper. There is a possible burial also in Great Gaddesden on 8/4/1789, also noting him as pauper. There are no ages given so it is not definite that this is the same James | FREEMAN, James (I182)
|
| 778 | The baptism records Sarah as 3 years old. She is baptised the same day as her sister Mary. The details for Sarah from 1827 onwards are the best match and appear to be consistent within themselves. Edward ALDRIDGE married Elizabeth ANSELL in 1823 in Stevenage and she was buried (probably) 10/6/1827. | HOLT, Sarah (I264)
|
| 779 | The baptism register notes that he was "brought to church" on 5th July 1776. Coupled with the baptism of Henry and Sarah a few days later suggests that perhaps the family were away from church for several years... | HEARD, John (I1251)
|
| 780 | The baptism register says she was living at 4, Pleasant Row, however this is a little way away from 4, Little Pleasant Row where William was born in 1879 and where they were for the 1881 Census, so I am assuming this was a typo. Probate was £156 to William James DESBOROUGH (presumably her brother), occ retired railway porter. Have found Sarah DESBOROUGH in the Electoral Roll at various dates from 1918 to 1954, living with others, presumably a servant, though she is at 29, Pepler Road from 1945 to 1951 with a different person - so maybe she owns the house and has lodgers. | DESBOROUGH, Sarah (I525)
|
| 781 | The best match on baptism is a location 17-20 miles away. The baptism record only gives her mother Honey, no father. Elizabeth gives her maiden name as FARROW (or at least that is what the vicar heard) when her daughter Elizabeth is baptised. | FEATHERS, Elizabeth (I1162)
|
| 782 | The birth and baptism info is clear, however the birth was not registered until Q1 in 1849. Marries Caroline GODDING 9/7/1872 at St. James, Milton, Portsmouth The death details on board ship seem unlikely at first glance, but in 1881 Caroline is a widow, and the youngest child was 2, so born around 1879, and therefore he must have been alive up to about 1878. The DOB and name in the naval records match our William, and in addition, he is given as a baker (and a labourer) in the naval records, matching the stated profession of our William. So I conclude that they are the same person.... So it would seem that William served from 12/7/1873 to his death on 26/10/1878 on ?Simoone?, Raleigh, Duke of Wellington, and finally Crocodile. The death details say "DD 26.10.78 at sea of apoplexy". Apoplexy is probably a stroke According to https://www.garenewing.co.uk/angloafghanwar/resources/troopship_crocodile.php, HMS Crocodile was a troopship, ferrying soldiers via Suez to India, where they most probably were engaged in the war with Afghanistan. On the 26 Oct, the ship was sailing from Suez to Bombay (Mumbai). | NASH, William James (I1045)
|
| 783 | The birth certificate and baptism transcript gives his name as James, but he seems to variously be James Albert and Albert James through his life. The baptism transcript has his birth as 16 Dec, but this is assumed to be a mistake. The address where James is in the 1861 Census is the same as his brother John is at the 1871 Census. | GUY, James (I1158)
|
| 784 | The birth details are the most common on the internet, and appear to be the most likely for somebody born in or around Owermoigne and aged 18-28 at his wedding. The burial has been picked on the basis the birth of the youngest child, yet found. | GUY, Joseph (I925)
|
| 785 | The birth details given are the most likely from IGI, but they are not definite. The death is even more difficult to locate - there are a number of possibilities in the area. | SMITH, Henry Charles (I322)
|
| 786 | The birth information comes from the 1939 Register, it may be 26 May, but I think it is 16 May. | COOMBE, Samuel (I1311)
|
| 787 | The Bishops marriage transcript has William coming from Clannaborough, and this is likely to be fairly accurate. There is no obvious baptism information. There is a burial transcription for William (DELL and DELVE) buried in Clannaborough on 14/1/1828, aged 73, "of Bow". This suggests he might have gone back "home" at the end of his life, particularly if he was widowed at that stage. However the best info for Mary his wife is that she died in 1837...... There is a Samuel, James and John Delve, all born Bow between 1808 and 1823 who might be grandsons of William, from an older son than Samuel......There are no more details on IGI. | DELL, William (I819)
|
| 788 | The book "Croydon and the Second World War" (1949) indicates that he was a captain in the Royal Engineers, and an MBE. There is no obvious 1939 Register entry. His military record in the Royal Engineers says Service 21/5/1920 to 3/2/1941, most of which appears to have been overseas. I cannot understand the record, but he was at the Suez Canal in the months before he stopped. | JENKINS, Leonard Bennett (I683)
|
| 789 | The burial date comes as the most reasonable match for Great Gaddesden. If she was right about her age, then the most likely birth information is then for Mary MAILS at Flamstead, about 4 miles away. Likely to be reasonable but in no sense certain. The only consistent reference on the internet in Great Gaddesden is to Mary MILES bapt Nov1760 to Joseph and Mary. This suggests she might have been 15 (if baptised as an infant) when she married, which is possible. Marriage witnesses to the marriage to Frances Freeman were Thomas SIMMONS and Robert KING. Robert witnessed other marriages as the church so does not help on names. I cannot find Thomas Simmons as an obvious connection to any possible family. Looking through burial details and other marriages does not indicate much but Mary MEALS, born 1760 is buried at Great Gaddesden on 22/7/1835, so if this person is a spinster (and the records do not show), then this is probably the Mary MILES bapt Nov 1760. On balance though "Mails" is probably closer phonetically to "Miles", and the ages are better. So Mary Mails and not Miles is chosen. | MAILS, Mary (I155)
|
| 790 | The burial details are considered correct, as it references him as "son of John and Joan Guy", ie it was a child. | GUY, James (I1229)
|
| 791 | The burial details are speculative but fit with the rest of the story. No age is given but she is described as a "Married Woman". Working back from this, the baptism records seem the most likely, given the fact that there is then a brother named Skoyles, and possibly this being the mother's maiden name. However it is 17 miles from Shotesham to Tunstead, and there is Norwich (which would be the most likely place of employment nearby) between Shotesham and Tunstead. | PUXLEY, Susannah (I980)
|
| 792 | The burial is speculative, but highly likely given that the register says "of Spreyton". | JACKMAN, Arthur (I625)
|
| 793 | The burial record refers to "Westminster" cemetery.... which is an old name for Brompton Cemetery. | JACKMAN, Laura (I732)
|
| 794 | The census enumeration suggests that "Hammer" is part of Abinger, but I think it refers to the vast majority of the village known as Abinger Hammer | Source (S429)
|
| 795 | The census has no other address information other than "Bovingdon" | Source (S2816)
|
| 796 | The census information is varied in terms of birth location, but the BMD records say Anglesey so this has been chosen. Grace's parents were John (Navy officer and then engineer) and Grace. At the 1901 Census, she describes herself as "Married" and "Head" (William is on board ship). Note that the Findagrave transcript says she died in 1939, but the probate record is clear that it is 1935. | HARVEY, Grace Guartrude H (I1033)
|
| 797 | The children identified for John and Martha are all those born to John and Martha Hunt in Willian in the period 1727-1747. | Family: John HUNT / Martha BONHEST (F248)
|
| 798 | The CWGC burial information says he was in A Coy, 1st Btn, Hampshire Regiment, ser no 16064. | TAYLOR, Leonard Walter (I73)
|
| 799 | The CWGC for Leonard says he was their only son, and they were living at 122, Brooke Road, Stoke Newington. He was described as a Civil Servant. | Family: Leonard Walter TAYLOR / Martha Ann PERKS (F19)
|
| 800 | The CWGC has the following information:- Number 2041 He was a Corporal in the 4th Bn., Cameron Highlanders Buried at Le Touret Memorial, France Additional information Son of the late John and Jessie Anderson; husband of Letitia Ethel Anderson, of "Lulworth", Lyme Regis Rd., Banstead, Surrey. Served in the South African Campaign with the City Imperial Volunteers (C.I.V.) | ANDERSON, George Gordon (I619)
