Robert Green COMPLETED
« on: Monday 17 December 07 00:16 GMT (UK) »

 :)Hello from Brisbane, Australia.

Robert Green
 is my greatgreatgrandfather paternally speaking.  From the census of 1851 he is married to Sarah (nee Watkins, from Wales) and they are living with their 4 children initially in Weeley, then in St Osyth, Essex.

Robert, born circa 1801, Arleligh, Essex
 was a widower when he married Sarah in 1844 as per a marriage certificate i have for such a couple.  This marriage took place at St Brides, London on February 19.

Robert appears to have died between 1855
 (youngest child Jane born in Oct 1855)
and the 1861 census
 (1st quarter of year); Sarah on that census is describeds as a "widow".

Anyone know of these people?
Kind regards,
Julie Kemp

there is also one in tendring in 1852 -but as jane wasn't born until c. 1856 maybe the latter one is your Robert?

Hello Suz

Thanks for that!

I do have a Robert Green's death certificate but it doesn't have anything personal on it to convince me it is my Robert Green!  How difficult can one get!  Also the age on the cert is messed up and crossed out and then the figure looks like 70 years of age.  I don't think that Robert was quite that old :  if he was born c1801 in Ardleigh, Essex, then dies in 1858?! 

It says he died in Union House, Tendring.  Was that a hospital?  Had his young wife tossed him out?!

Kind regards,
Julie

Hi

I would Check the other Robert Green Death in 1852
Just because there was a child born in Oct 1855 does not mean he was the father. She could have well been illigitimate and was obviously given the surname Green as that is her mothers surname even if it is only by Marriage, i have seen this before and it is something worth looking into.

Union House would have been the Union Workhouse

Hello Kath

Yes i guess that's fair comment.
I'll look into the 1852 death of Robert Green. 
I was afraid it would be the workhouse!

Julie

Thanks Malcolm.

I had been at that site months ago and it was good to get back there but unfortunately i found little, except for a Robert Green listed as one of 3 Greens who owned property in the area.

I'll have to go to the Essex archives, which i didn't like - i find it a difficult site to navigate!

Kind regards,
Julie
