| 851 | The only obvious BMD entry is for Mabel Hilda, but with no mother maiden name. The birth was Q1 1883, so a little adrift of the 1891 Census (but note the 2 year discrepancy for Bertie Horace). There is another Littlemore family at this time, so Mabel Hilda might be a different family. There is a Mabel Hilda LITTLEMORE marrying Edward Yorke MITCHINSON 3/8/1913 in Richmond, naming James William Littlemore, Thames Pilot as her father. This is quite close to the Waterman occupation from his census records. Of significance is one of the witnesses is Herbert TOMS. Her age is given as 26, ie DOB about 1887. Edward appears in military records with a marriage that looks like 1906, but the other details match. He is discharged with heart difficulties, and his suicide or accidental death in1933 mentions heart problems. Mabel dies in 1935, and mentions another TOMS (not one I recognise) in her probate. So this is likely to be a valid story. There are problems, though. I cannot find any baptism for her, nor anything in the 1921 or 1911 Censuses. The story needs more investigation to be more certain | LITTLEMORE, Mabel (I1092)
|
| 852 | The only other reference to a Robert Jackman online is a marriage to Ann JONES in 1791 at S Tawton. The witnesses are unfamiliar names but if it is this Robert, he would be 61, and is living outside the parish, so it would not be surprising. | JACKMAN, Robert (I718)
|
| 853 | The person to whom he leaves his estate, Temperence DIXON, is living next door at 1901 Census | SHUTER, Alfred North (I329)
|
| 854 | The Portsmouth Evening News of 30 Mar 1907 also reported that he (the Superintent of the Wesley Church Sunday School) with Ralph Hull (the Gn Sec) left their roles here to sail to Canada on 29th Mar. They were recipients of "tangible expressions of esteem" for their work with the Sunday School. He served in the Royal Navy from 10/4/1917 to 1/2/18, when he transferred to the RAF. His occupation is given as Carpenter, he is 5' 9", with brown hair, blue eyes and medium complexion. | JUNIPER, Charles Woolner (I1106)
|
| 855 | The Portsmouth Times and Naval Gazette 28 November 1863 records the birth, but says that this was at Lucknow St. Note that the family are in Lucknow St at both the 1861 and 1871 Censuses. See separate notes about the food wholesaling partnership up to 1918. According to John Jackman (b1926), he travelled to Russia, France and Belgium for poultry In the probate details, it says the will was resealed in Vancouver (Canada) 1/12/1949. I have a family note that says Ralph and Frederick travelled across Canada (not obvious when), but decided that "it was not a suitable place for their wives" | HULL, Frederick William (I914)
|
| 856 | The quality of the records, and in particular the numbers of VEY/VYE mean that some of the family details cannot be definite, but Henry's details are consistent within themselves and so are offered here. | VEY, Henry (I1060)
|
| 857 | The reason why she was buried in Hackney is not clear, but given the address on the burial record, this is clearly the right person. Age at death given as 14months | DESBOROUGH, Matilda Emma (I529)
|
| 858 | The register is not clear on the day - it is clearly April 1789. I think it says "Twentieth", but it might be a later day. The last day for the banns was 19th April. | Family: Joseph GUY / Ann HALE (F360)
|
| 859 | The registers are very disorganised and in no way chronological, so 1752 (ie the Julian year 1751) seems most likely, but it could be +/- 5 years from this. In addition, Em is clearly the son, and so is perhaps "Emmanuel", which is consistent with being born around Christmas. However there is no other record that I can find, but I presume he died young. | JUNIPER, Em (I969)
|
| 860 | The road is not completely clear, but this is believed to be correct. | Source (S2260)
|
| 861 | The road name is not clear, and looks like "Beaupy", but there appears to be no such road in 1891, and in the index it is clear that there is something before the "y" | Source (S715)
|
| 862 | The School admission data on Reginald says he started school 4/2/07 and left 9/1/12 with the comment "Father dead - Mother removed to London" At the time of the 1921 Census, he is working in the pub run by Percy Bird and Annie (nee Webb). So there is not a very straight forward connection, but it suggests that through his mother, a connection to the family was maintained. At the 1939 Register there is also a Mary Maud PETRE (originally Reginald J ALLEN), married, dob 12/8/08, but can find no record of a marriage between her and Reginald | ALLEN, Reginald John (I40)
|
| 863 | The School Board admissions identify her as living at 24 Flint St on 20/10/1899 and 43,Manston(?) Rd on 6/1/1902 Possible death Jan qtr 1983 Canterbury. In any event she was alive when her husband died in 1958. The death index for this says she was born 23/3/1892, ie 4 years adrift, though it is interesting to see this is the same DOB originally put in the 1939 Register, before it was altered In 1934 she was living at 98a, London Road, Mitcham (with Philip) Philip appears in the 1936 London telephone directory at 327 Martin Way. But cannot find him in the London directory in 1943. Cannot find them in Canterbury directories in 1958/9 | WEBB, Annie Grace (I2)
|
| 864 | The school records have her starting 1/2/1906, when she was living at 12, Pullar Road, and leaving 20/9/11 when she "left district". Some other children left to other towns, eg Maidstone, so this might be leaving the country... She might have married Gem RANDALL Q2 1945 in Hemel Hempstead, though there are various other possibilities. She seems to have signed the marriage register for Emma Rose Webb (in 1928). Also suggests that the Merrington sisters kept in touch? I can find no obvious record of death after 1939 as ALLEN or RANDALL, though again there are many possibilities. | ALLEN, Edith May (I39)
|
| 865 | The South of England Advertiser of (Thurs) 10 Jan 1924, says she married Frank Milner BLACK (the "Mayor's son) the previous Saturday (ie 5/1/1924). The relevant GRO ref is Jan qtr 1924, Brighton, vol 2b, p411. There are a number of newspaper reports that make it clear that Kathleen was a very accomplished singer. The DOB is based on the day and month given in the 1939 Register, but the year identified by the BMD index, and the Censusses. It is unclear why her husband lied about the year, it seems too far out to be a mistake..... | VEY, Kathleen (I1056)
|
| 866 | The spelling is unclear as is the road location. It is possibly Edmund Rd. | Source (S10)
|
| 867 | The surname is very difficult to read in the Banns notice and the marriage register. It could be HUPSEY, for instance. HUSSEY is picked because the "mark of" name seems to be this, and the penmanship seems quite scatty for the minister concerned, and it is on balance the most likely.... Searching for Sarah HUSSEY and similar names comes up with only 1 recorded baptism that is not too far from Affpuddle and about the right date, assuming that the 1841 Census is roughly correct. This is for Sarah born to Gideon and Sarah and baptised on 17 May 1781 in West Knighton. There is no obvious census entry for 1851, so it is likely that she had died by then. There is a burial of a Sarah Guy at Kimmeridge, which is possible, on 8 Feb 1859, aged 84 (ie DOB in 1775), which is possible, but it is probably not her. | HUSSEY, Sarah (I1002)
|
| 868 | The Surrey Advertiser and County Times that reports on the wedding on 25 Jun 1932 says Eleanor was "a talented member of the Horsell Amateur Dramatic Society". Also that Muriel Juniper was one of the bridesmaids, and that Leonard Juniper was best man. | Family: Horace Wells JUNIPER / Eleanor JONES (F344)
|
| 869 | The text in the baptism register is not completely clear, but Drewsteignton I think is the only possible interpretation of a birth location. See also notes about sister Joane The text says: "Alexander the sonne of Thomas Jackman ?of? [unclear]?y parish of ?Drewsteignton? was baptised the 29th day of May" The unclear part is only 2 letters, and maybe nothing at all. But the "y" seems quite distinct. There are possible burials in South Tawton in 1735, 1739 and 1740 but there is nothing to say if these or any other burials are the right ones. | JACKMAN, Alexander (I788)
|
| 870 | The tree at http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/tree/34754962/person/18699292740 has Fanny's parents as Tom and Ann (HADDEN) | Family: William MEREDEN / Fanny FREEMAN (F13)
|
| 871 | The Will of Joseph Bowles (who died around 1804 in Wimborne Minster), makes it clear that Mary's parents are Joseph and Mary. | BOLES, Mary (I1333)
|
| 872 | The writing is unclear and so the house name is very difficult to judge. This looks most likely based on the enumerators writing on other entries. | Source (S1184)
|
| 873 | The year of birth is uncertain. 1889 is that given at the 1939 Register, and is closer on average to the Census returns. The School admission data from 1897 says 1888, and so this may be correct as it is closer to the birth than most Census, though note that in 1891 she was given as 1. I can find no GRO entry for her birth, which would be conclusive (and no baptism either). (Note that there is definitely a mistake over her brother Herbert Henry and also appears to be a mistake over her sister Alice Maud too.) The school admission register says "Hardly knows a word", presumably relating to her admission at age 8. Marries George William ALEXANDER 20/12/1914 at Holy Trinity Church, Tooting. The Fulham Chronicle of 5/2/1937 says that on the previous morning she was rescued from the Thames near Wandsworth Bridge. Her address was given as 43, Broughton Road, Fulham. There is no indication of cause. | DAY, Annie Florence (I451)
|
| 874 | There appear to be 2 possible William Impey's in the scanned registers. In addition to the one chosen, there is another born 1693 in Hitchin. This has not be chosen for the simple reason that it is marginally further away - but it is entirely possible that William was in fact born in 1693 in Hitchin. The parish records do have a William IMPEY, labourer who was buried 9/3/1727/8 - this might be our William and the reason there were no more children. Whilst it is not conclusive, there appears to be nothing more on the internet, and so this is adopted. | IMPY, William (I396)
|
| 875 | There appears to be no records of Ann after her baptism, but it is assumed that she died, probably before 1837 | SLOCOMBE, Ann (I639)
|
| 876 | There are 2 other baptisms, that might be possible children :- Mary, 27/12/1748; but this refers to her being born at Ansty Elizabeth, 24/6/1751; in Hilton. If the burial details for Martha are correct, then it would be strange but not impossible to live at Ansty for a short period. On the other hand, there do not seem to be any other John and Martha White, and having just 2 children would be unusual. I have not found any other relevant marriage between John White and Martha in Hilton though of course there may be a couple married in a nearby village. Lastly, there is the baptism and burial of Susannah White (daughter of John and Martha), on 5/1/1760. In the burial register it says "of Ansty". | Family: John WHITE / Martha DIRANT (F399)
|
| 877 | There are a number of conflicting documents for his birth. There are several that have 16 Apr 1898, but 1899 is preferred as it matches the BMD records and is earlier than most of the others, and is strictly correct for the 1901 Census (31/3/1901). There is also 6th April in one record. The IMechE records state that he was at Kings School, Canterbury from 1913-1917 (after which he signed up to the RAF) and then working for his father from 1919-1924, and then at St Catherines Coll, Cambridge from 1924-1927. Possibly contrarily, he left Liverpool on 20/2/1919 for New York, on SS Lapland (no occupation given, age 19), and returns from Quebec on the SS Empress of Britain 1/9/1923 into Southampton, occupation "Manager" He became an Associate of the IMechE on 21/10/1927 and resigned on 23/10/1942 He was admitted to the Freedom of the City of London, supported by his father in 26/11/1920. This, and the RAF records identify that he was also a lance corporal in the Army (presumably before the RAF was officially formed?). The RFC records give his details as Surrey Regiment no 11265 (with a question mark), then 3rd Btn XXXXX (unreadable) (no 30457) where he was L/Cpl. It records he was "fit as pilot or observer" 18/7/1918 During all of this time he records his home address as "Purbrook", Clifford Rd - presumably where his parents were. He left £111677 in his will (1979) | JUNIPER, Horace Wells (I942)
|
| 878 | There are a number of outgoing passenger lists to Marseilles and then the Canary Islands with Harold HULL on it 1926, 27, 28, 30, though other than insurance, there is no other evidence of what he was doing. Harold married Dorothy Ellen WARD, at Rayleigh Methodist Church, 5/5/1938. GRO ref Apr qtr 1938, Rochford, Essex, vol 4a, p2298. Note that the 1939 Register has a windowed lady Grace A WARD (born 1862). One of the bridesmaids was Elizabeth JACKMAN. Their son is David HULL who married Margaret and a daugher Mary who married Rino ?di Gaetano? in Rome. | HULL, Harold Ralph (I1124)
|
| 879 | There are a number of PARISHs in Bow at this time, but the most likely scenario is somebody baptised in 1749, son of John (b1726) and Anne | PARISH, John (I659)
|
| 880 | There are a number of people called David Pike, but given that the 1841 Census is likely to be correct, we assume he does not marry Eliza PARSONS 8/4/1837 at St Michaels, St Albans, nor die in 1832 (!). The death details are for the same person found in the later censusses, though his middle age years are more speculative. | PIKE, David (I223)
|
| 881 | There are a number of possible baptisms on IGI, but most likely seems to be 2 Jul 1804, at Woodmancote, son of William and Ann GREGORY. The IGI record of marriage also has his father as William. | GREGORY, William (I1155)
|
| 882 | There are a number of possible events after 1841 but none of the censusses and marriages seem right in terms of location etc. Most likely I think is that he died 1847 (Hemel Hempstead, Q3, 1847) | FREEMAN, James (I139)
|
| 883 | There are at least 3 obvious burials for Alexander in South Tawton:- 2 Mar 1735/1736 14 Apr 1739 7 May 1740. His daughter Joan was baptised Sep 1735, so any of these are possible. Trees on the internet seems to have a date of 1734 which seems unlikely. | JACKMAN, Alexander (I787)
|
| 884 | There are no definite records of Elizabeth, but the most likely scenario is that she was buried, still as BROOKLAND, on 5/2/1758 in Crediton | BROOKLAND, Elizabeth (I850)
|
| 885 | There are no obvious baptism records. The internet sites say 25/6, FMP says that Thomas is a yeoman, but there are no baptism details at that date. The North Tawton parish records say that Mary GIBBONS (to Samuel and Ursula) was bapt 27/6, Samuel is a yeoman. However this does not match the quoted age at death of 4m. The only Samuel I can find is bapt 19/3 to Richard and Elizabeth HILL. The baptism date matches the age at death. The burial records give his middle name as Rudale, but it was not the normal vicar, and Ruddall matches Thomas's mother's maiden name, and so seems more likely. One internet site says that according to information from his brother Thomas, Samuel died of whooping cough. | WILKEY, Samuel Ruddall (I693)
|
| 886 | There are no obvious children born to a John and Joan Melhuish, so either they did not have children or one of them died. At the moment the most obvious is Joane "from Spreyton" 10/5/1747, recorded for Crediton and this has been used. There are many burials of John Melhuish, though none in Spreyton. | Family: John MELHUISH / Joan JACKMAN (F299)
|
| 887 | There are no obvious marriages - within 5 miles of South Tawton, the first time Elizabeth Jackman appears is 1754, which would mean she was very old. The burial date put down seems the most likely but there are burials in 1744, 1745 and 1792. The first 2 are entirely possible for this person. The last one seems less likely, given that the lady is described as a pauper. | JACKMAN, Elizabeth (I711)
|
| 888 | There are no obvious marriages to DEAN or DEAR, so it is assumed that they did not marry. The name is of course a common one, so some of the later info is speculative. JW Webb does appear in the Norfolk electoral rolls in 1914 and 1915, which matches where his wife was in hospital. Note that when he marries Mary Elizabeth, he (incorrectly) gives his age as 45 A poss death Jun 1952, Romford, aged 83 | WEBB, John William (I7)
|
| 889 | There are no obvious records of Frederick after 1891 | IMPEY, Frederick Charles (I409)
|
| 890 | There are no other obvious baptisms in or near Throwleigh up to 1675. | Family: Thomas JACKMAN / Maude GRAY (F311)
|
| 891 | There are no unambiguous records of George after 1881. There is no clear census record, but no obvious death in the FreeBMD indices either. There is a George William who married Annie Louisa ELLISS 9/9/1888 and his occupation is given as a carman, which matches 1881 Census. But his father is a "wood chopper" which in general does not match the weaver occupations (though note he is a carpenter at Elizabeth's marriage); and the marriage date is after the most likely death date, though the marriage record may have just not mentioned a decd father. However the 1911 Census does look consistent and so is recorded here as probably likely... | TAYLOR, George William (I55)
|
| 892 | There are other possible children (from IGI) born to Thomas and Sarah Clark in the right area, but no evidence for this being the right couple. Thomas Joseph (1826) William Thomas (1827) Mary Ann (1829) Ann (1829) | Family: Thomas CLARK / Sarah ????? (F5)
|
| 893 | There are possible BMD index records for birth for both Frederick Ernest and Ernest Frederick. At the moment the EF Frost seems a slightly better location, but will wait for more info before altering the name. He served in the army as a private in the Middlesex Regiment (?RFA), joining up in 1902, completed in 1904(?) and then from the reserves went to fight with the BEF and discharged 19/8/1915 to 167 South St., Walworth | FROST, Frederick Ernest (I518)
|
| 894 | There are possible Catherine Lovells in the 1851 Census (servant, aged 17) and 1861 Census (aged 26 with her brother in law and sister?), and a possible marriage 10/12/1869 but difficult to reconcile the details. However it does seem likely that she married Charles NOBLE in Dec 1869 (father given as John, a timber merchant), and she then appears in the 1871, 81, 91, 01 censuses (dying in Jan 1910). Censuses give birth as St George in the East, which is consistent. Charles NOBLE died in 1893. Witness to the marriage includes Elizabeth DAIKERS, who is her sister (from 1861 Census) and James DAIKERS did marry Elizabeth LOVELL in 1859. In the marriage between Elizabeth and James, it again has John Lovell as father as timber merchant. However I cannot find an Elizabeth LOVELL born to a John LOVELL. In the 1871 Census for Elizabeth it also has Elizabeth LOVELL (who could be a mother, albeit born London, and thus not consistent with the scrawl in the 1841 Census). None of this is really conclusive either way.... | LOVELL, Catherine (I29)
|
| 895 | There are too many options to establish death, but it seems fairly clear he was not in the 1939 Register, and therefore died between 1921 and 1939. The most likely (but by no means certain) death is therefore 1934 in London City. | WEBB, William James (I158)
|
| 896 | There are too many possibilities about his earlier life to be sure which is him and which is somebody else. There is a baptism on 30/6/1837 at St Martins in the fields for a son to Edward, a porter, and Elizabeth, this Edward was born 22/10/1834 at an address that is unclear, and could easily be in the Strand area. The 1891 Census implies that he had been deaf and dumb from childhood, along with his wife | HARVEY, Edward (I128)
|
| 897 | There are too many possibilities on death for Mary to be able to identify any particular option. However there is nothing suitable in North Tawton. | BROOKLAND, Mary (I847)
|
| 898 | There are two possibilities for burials in South Tawton - 1775 and 1778. There is nothing to chose between them, so arbitrarily I have assumed the burials apply in order of birth date, ie this John is buried 1778 and the John b1716 is buried in 1775. (see also John JACKMAN b1716 South Tawton) | JACKMAN, John (I742)
|
| 899 | There are two possible Thomas JACKMAN's in the area on the web - this one, which is probably the more likely, and an earlier burial, ("Thomas son of Dan") also in South Tawton on 18/5/1676. But there is nothing obvious for the popular birth date of 1640, and in addition, the lack of later children suggests that either he or Maud (for whom I can find no evidence) of death, died soon after 1666. There appears to be nothing to confirm who Thomas's father is. | JACKMAN, Thomas (I696)
|
| 900 | There are various transcripts of the baptism details on the internet; I think it is 19th Oct, but it is variously reported as 7th or 14th.... | GUY, Sarah (I1144)
|
