Hello and welcome to our regular Scavenger Hunt. This week it's KazzaQld's turn and I'm sure you'll find this one very interesting. It is a bit complicated, but I know you love a challenge.
Good luck...........and Good Hunting.
*****************************
Louise or Louisa MABBLE story
Trying to find the parents of Louise MABBLE.
Louise was born in either Idle or Burley depending on which census you believe - 1861 has Burley, 1871 has Burley, 1881 has Burley, 1891 has Idle, 1901 she's back in Burley in Wharfedale - I think on balance we'll say Burley. I have looked on the www.calverley.info site which has quite a lot of Idle information – no MABBLEs at all.
I bought her marriage certificate; she married 25 Jul 1858 in the Parish church at Bradford to John PRESTON Widower, aged 45 - he's actually about 48 - father James – his father's name squares with what I already know so that's good! I have John on the 1841 and 1851 census with his first wife and children from his first marriage.
But for Louise MABBLE Spinster aged 35 - this squares with census info - father's name is struck out.
Witnesses were Samuel HOLMES and Christopher GIBSON – they were church officials so no clues there.
That's about all on the cert, we know (assuming she's not lying) that Louise wasn't married prior to her marriage to John.
She is on the 1861 and subsequent censuses with her husband John, I have them.
On her daughter Eliza’s (my great-great-grandmother’s) birth certificate it says mother is Louise formerly MABBLE, wording which could imply that Louise was married before John PRESTON, but on the marriage certificate it clearly says Spinster.
I’ve looked for MABBLE, MABLE, NABBLE etc etc on the IGI, FreeBMD, YorkshireBMD – just to find any other MABBLEs in the area. The only one I can find on FreeBMD is a Margaret b. 1846 in Otley, so that’s the right area. I’ve toyed with the idea of buying this Margaret’s certificate, but I haven’t done it yet.
I bought the Burley in Wharfedale baptisms in booklet form. The only Louisa in the whole booklet is Louisa HARRIS, daughter of Adelaide, a spinster. She was baptised 27 Jul 1823 – so that age would fit for her to be my Louisa. I found a marriage for Adelaide in 1827 on the IGI to William FISHBURN and I found Louisa nee HARRIS with William and Adelaide on both the 1841 and 1851 census, as Louise FISHBURN, unmarried. So that would mean she’s still in contention to be my Louise MABBLE.
Adelaide was born in London according to the census, so maybe she got in “trouble” and was relocated to Yorkshire to give birth to avoid embarrassing the family?
But why was Louise using FISHBURN in 1841 and 1851 and then after that starts using MABBLE – if (and it’s a big if) I do have the right girl.
If anyone can think of any other ideas for uncovering her parents – let me know!
