COMPLETED Claud Butler of Fulham - with Carmarthenshire COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 10 October 09 14:53 UTC (UK) »

Hi there.
Could some please look up the Butler family for me please?
Claud was born in Fulham in July 1903. I have no idea as to names of siblings or parents. Would appreciate any help you can give.
Many thanks.
Liz

Hi Liz,

A Claud Butler born 14th July 1903 was christened 23 October 1904 at Immanuel Streatham, parents John Morgan Butler (Draper) and Mary Ethel, of 6 Waldemar Avenue Fulham Road. A brother Geoffrey Howard George Butler born 7th Mar 1902 was christened the same day.

If you search for Claud on the 1911 census index, I have a feeling you might find him as 'Clara' in Kingston district, Surrey.

A John Morgan Butler marries a Mary Ethel Wotton in March quarter 1901, West Ashford district 2a 1060.

I see a birth registration for a Mary Ethel Wotton in West Ashford in 1873. Let's see if we can find them together in 1901 ...

in the meantime, this looks like a good match for her in 1881:

RG11/946 76 1

(added: not sure where she's hiding in 1891 - the rest of the family is at RG12/699 78 1)

Wow, Tati, what a quick response! I'm amazed  Smiley
Yes, you have the right Claud (famous cycle maker), I know he also had a sister, have no knowledge of her name though, only that she married a Fred Pratt.
I really appreciate the help you are giving me. Many many thanks.

Birth registration
Joan M Butler mother's maiden name Wotton
Dec 1911 Kingston 2a 742

(There's a marriage in 1932 to Frederick H Pratt, again in Kingston district)

This is a bit odd, mind, because the 1911 census already seems to show a sister Joan age 5 months.

Another possible sister:
Margaret C P Butler mother's maiden name Wotton
Dec 1912 Kingston 2a 758 


I'm not having any luck finding John and Mary in 1901 so far

Hi Tati.
I have been trying to find Claud on the 1911 census, typing in the name Clara, as suggested, but with no luck! I have also tried putting in his fathers details which you kindly supplied, but still nothing. I tried to use the 1911 site when it first started, to find another relative, but again failed to turn up anything, and yet a cousin put in the exact same info and found the details she was looking for. really doesn't make sense to me?
Thank you for finding Joan.

When I do a search on John Morgan Butler, I get one and only one hit. Sorry, don't know why it doesn't work for you  Sad

Ah, good! In case you have an opportunity to view the actual details, let me know where it says John was born  Smiley

Well, Tati, this is quite confusing! We have been looking at the original census for a while now. On the initial printout it states that John Morgan was born in Harwood S Wales. We have been searching google map etc, and there is no such place there. The only Harwood we can find is in New South Wales??
It's quite difficult to read the place name on original, definately S Wales though.
Also, on Original census, it clearly has Claud and not Clara as on the first print off.
Hope this makes sense?

I'm not at all surprised!  Tongue

What a shame about the unclear birth place. I can't see a birth registration for John Morgan Butler at all, and no candidate on any census with a birth place similar to Harwood.

You could crop the part of the 1911 census image showing John's birth place and post a deciphering request on this board http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,425.0.html
Someone might just be able to recognise it!

Hi

1901 census RG13 127 folio 21
187 Samatra Road Hampstead
John M Butler 30 Boarder Married Draper Lla ? da Carmarthen
Ethel M Butler 28 Boarder Married Charing Kent

My census provider has indexed it as 'Slauneda' but I personally think it starts with a double Ll. The nearest I could get to it would be LLanedi?


I think you need some Welsh specialists to look at both images of his birthplace. I'd put them on the Carmarthenshire board. If you are not able to do that I can move this post to the Carmarthenshire board (or you could post the details on the Carmarthenshire board) and hopefully at least the 1901 census can be looked at for you by anyone that has access to it.

It might be on earlier censuses you are looking for a John Morgan?
Having the details from the marriage certificate would also be a help.


Regards

Valda

Hi there.
I have tried to cut and paste a snippet from the 1911 census to post on the deciphering board, but having so many problems trying to bring this about. Last attempt prompted a message which read ' this message has already been posted'? I have searched but cannot find it!
Thank you Tati, for finding them in the boarding house.
Many thanks for all the help given.
