Louisa and George Biddlecombe in 1871
« on: Wednesday 04 March 09 20:38 UTC (UK) »

Can you help me find them?

They marry in Holborn in 1860.

In 1861 they live at 1 Brill Crescent. George 24 b. Blackburn, Lancashire is a miner. Louisa 23 b. Marylebone a basket maker.

She was a witness at her nephew's wedding in 1870.

After that, nada.

BethnalGreen 1a 181

I cannot find George and Louisa on 1871 or 1881, I have even looked at 1861 and can't find them listed there at all
Any other information would be useful
Where is Brill Cres?
poss death for George
Mar qtr 1890 St Geo In East aged 62 ref 1C 334
date of birth circa 1838
so if there are 2 possible deaths why can't I find them on a census ?

I have tried every way which I can with no joy at all, strange isn't it, if only Molloyboy would come up witH more info we just might find them, there is a George and Louisa but ages don't match up at all,
free BMD's have lots of Biddlecombe's but there are not so many on other sites

As George was a miner I tried checking Wales 1881 census. No joy.

Maybe Scotland ? ( desperate! ) Smiley

I went to bed crossed eyed looking for the Biddlecombe family, not a pretty sight I can tell you, after searching again various ways I just cannot come up with this family, so as I am feeling very much like Devis with his computer icon and  I am going to give up.
I hope someone can come up with them somewhere Molloyboy, it did cross my mind they might have shortened the name, one of my own family did just that and they were really tricky to find, did they become Biddle? just a thought

Happy hunting

Thanks for all your efforts Louisa Maud and Devis. Much appreciated.

Yeah sorry. I ommitted to mention that Brill Crescent is in St Pancras.

As I lay in bed last night, it occurred to me, What was a miner doing in St Pancras anyway? Perhaps he was in the capital working on some civil engineering project that required experienced diggers.

In this light, perhaps George and Louisa moved to the next big civil engineering job somewhere in the world. Who knows?

It's a long shot, but...................

No, I'm afraid not Louisa Maud. The last reference to both of them that I have is the 1861 census, where there are definitely no children.

Can we perhaps thry an approach from a different angle?
You say last heard of as witness to nephews wedding.
Did she sign then as Biddlecombe (full name)?

Where was the wedding? What were the names of the nephew and bride?

Second different approach - what was Louisa's maiden name. pre 1860? HAve you found any of her family in 1871 onwards - could she/and/or hubby be with them and wrongly listed with that surname? (though I cant see that happeneing in a whole series of censuses!)

just trying to think (quite a long way) outside the box!

I do feel she should be somewhere on the 1871 to be honest, I have tried with just Christian names, and all combinations of including beginning with a P, and that is not a silly suggestion as I have one which they have given a bit of a naughty name afer the 1901 came online, it is clearly what the name should be but transcribed  something else, so the name beginning with a P was not so stupid, ever felt like knocking your head against a wall?, they may of course they emigrated, that is possible I suppose between the wedding and the 1871 unless of course the death found was her.

She was previously Louisa Packer if I am correct taking it from the date that Molloyboy gave
