Baldwins causing trouble again - gone missing!
« on: Tuesday 12 May 09 12:43 UTC (UK) »

Hi all,

With help from Bee, JenB and ShaunJ I've now Fanny's parents, Richard & Ruth Baldwin, in the 41, 51, and 61 census.

Then they disappear!

In the 61 census, Fanny had two younger siblings -

Caroline age 7
George age 4

I've searched all the 1871 results offered by thegen*alogist site for Richard Baldwin, Ruth Baldwin, Caroline Baldwin and George Baldwin - whilst some have been around the right age, none come from Cholsey, Berks.

Where should I look next? I can only think that perhaps the family emigrated - there was a gold-rush in 1865.

Any ideas most welcome.

Richard Baldwin died 4q 1865, Wallingford 2c, 225

Ruth Baldwin married Charles Strange 2nd q. 1867, Wallingford 2c 533

Ruth and Charles Strange are, together with 'son' George Baldwin, in Cholsey in 1871, RG 10/ 2170/ Folio 50 / Page 13 (although George's place of birth doesn't match - perhaps that place of birth actually belongs to the next person on the schedule?)

Hi Jen,

I ignored that one because his age was 2 years out and place of birth wrong. However, I'll bow to your superior deductive powers.

A death and subsequent re-marriage never occurred to me.

How did you find the marriage?

Found the marriage on Free BMD.
I had actually found Ruth Strange with George Baldwin first of all and worked backwards from that.

Anyway, thanks Jen

I see you are researching Baldwin's in Cholsey.  My 2xgreatgrandmother, Charlotte Dixey, was born in Cholsey in 1829, the illigitimate daughter of Sarah Dixey.  When she married Jame Rumble, also of Cholsey, on 27/6/1847 at the servants register office in Wallingford, she gives her father's name as David Baldwin.  The IGI records for Cholsey show a David Baldwin bp in 1804, son of David and Hannah Baldwin  - this couple also have a son, Richard, baptised in 1823 according to the IGI.  Wonder if you have come acros David Baldwin (snr or jnr) or if this is your Richard, in which case we are probably distant cousins?
