OVERSTALL family
« on: Saturday 12 January 08 23:40 GMT (UK) »

Kia Ora
Just recording that I am interested in making contact with any member of the OVERSTALL family who may be able to help me with information about the life & family of Marguerite Fairy Webb born 19 July 1905 West Bromwich and who died in the Registration District of Newton Abbot April 1987.

Marguerite seems to have married Mr Overstall at some time and moved to Devon.

At this stage I have no further information as I only learned of this connection overnight!

Grateful for any information!

Regards
Marlene

PS  I think obtaining Marguerite's birth cert would be a good idea , just so as we can confirm her parent's names. Smiley

hi again

I have been trying to figure out were the 'Fairy' part of the name comes from ...No luck as yet ...


Henry/Harry Webb b 1863, father of Marguerite ( we hope  Grin)....this is his family;

1871:
birmingham
129 Soho(??) Rd
John Webb head mar 40 weigh machine maker b B'ham  (IGI b 15 jan 1831, chr; 15 feb 1831 s/o Edward webb & Maria)
Sarah wife mar 35 b B'ham
HARRY son 8 b Birmingham...he seems to have followed his dad's occupation!

1861:
John Webb head mar 30 weighing machine maker
Sarah Wife 25
Elizabeth Tuffley w. mother wid 65 , b Middlesex, London

marriage:
John Webb = Sarah Tuffley
june q 1856

so no connection to the Fairy name there  Undecided

hi Marlene ...

This is interesting ... and obviously needs to be verified that we have correct parents for Marguerite......

we have Marguerite Fairy Webb (1905) d/o Henry/Harry Elisha F Webb (b 1863, B'ham) s/o John Webb (1831 ) B'ham s/o Edward and Maria Webb.


It seems according to IGI that Edward and Maria had quite a few children born in B'ham.

but then I found this in 1841
Newton Abbot, Devon...Added this is where Marguerite ends up after marrying Mr . Overstall !!
Strand, Royal Hotel
Edward Webb 31 Hotel Keeper
Maria Webb 31 Y
Robert Webb 1 Y

I wonder if these are John's parents....ummm maybe I have the wrong people  Undecided

Hi Cas ...this is driving me crazy .... Do you think these are our people ? It looks like it as we have followed them back from 1901 ...

So you can't see Elisha Fairy b 1863 in 1871 or 1881?

Nope, but still trying.... Huh

Think the birth cert is only answer....could match up with what you found, but why would a bloke call himself Fairy if not born with it???

Hi Cas

i have searched 1871 ... he's not there , also there are no deaths ...except for an Elisha Fairy in 1854 .

I agree with you re the Fairy name ...not such a macho one for a guy  Grin

In 1901...that's the only time he has his full name ...Harry Elisha F Webb . His son is named after him ...

Birth registrations for Marguerite Fairy Webb's siblings:

Harry Elisha F Webb - mar q 1891 Aston warwickshire
Daisy Fairy Webb - sept q 1892 Aston
Philip Fairy Webb - Dec q 1894 Aston
Ida Violet f webb - dec q 1900 aston

deb  Smiley



added  The Fairy name must come somewhere from the Webb side ... as marguerites dad Harry has the "F" in his name ...
