WAIT FAMILY
« on: Friday 06 November 09 09:53 UTC (UK) » |
|
Hello
I have recently started tracing my family tree on my fathers side whose surname was Wait, I have found out that his father was Henry Wait who was born in 1902 in Newhaven, East Sussex, his parents were called Henry Wait and Theresa Eilingsfeld and that is where my trail ends. If anyone can help me find out any further information or where to try to find the information that would be great.
Thanks

It would be helpful if you could provide some additional information.
Are you saying that Henry Wait had a father Henry Wait and that the latter married Theresa Eilingsfeld ? If they married, do you know where and when the marriage took place? At present, I can't see a marriage between a Henry Wait and a Theresa Eilingsfeld in England or Wales.
Have you found anyone in the censuses?
Do you have any additional dates or places for relevant events?

Hi Nigel
Thanks for your reply, I found in the 1911 census Henry Wait and Theresa Eilingsfield, I assume they got married in Lewes or Brighton,. They had 2 sons Henry William Wait (my grandfather) and Francis Richard Wait. Henry Wait (Father) was born in Bradwell Grove around 1849 and Theresa Eva Eilingsfeld was born in Oxfordshire around 1869, as I say that is where my trail ends.
My grandfather Henry William Wait married Elsie Victoria Eager in 1926.
Are you saying that Henry Wait had a father Henry Wait and that the latter married Theresa Eilingsfeld ? If they married, do you know where and when the marriage took place? At present, I can't see a marriage between a Henry Wait and a Theresa Eilingsfeld in England or Wales.

Hi Dee
The information you have about my Great Grand Father is correct as I have information that he was a Coal Merchant and I didn't realise he was a widower. That is another path I have to follow to find out who is first wife was. In the 1911 Census he was married to his second wife Theresa Eilingsfield for 9 years.
Thanks
Shazzy

Hi Petmas
If you could have a look for me that would be a great help, it could be that her surname was spelt incorrectly.
Thanks

Here is Henry 1891 Census and a possible marriage for him
RG12 / 800 / 56 / 45
46 General Shop, South Road, Newhaven
Henry Wait / head / 41 / Carter b. Oxfordshire
Ann / wife / 49 / b. Alciston, Susses
Mary A Beilman / stepdau / 24 b. Newhaven
Marriage
Henry Wait / Ann Bulman
March 1884 / Lewes
Vol No: 2b / Page No: 284
There is a bit of a discrepancy with the spelling of Bulman/Beilman

I could be reading this incorrectly,but the actual 1911 census image looks like it says Theresa was born in Germany. (unless that says Guernsey???)
This might be why her name is giving us such problems.

Hi Petmas
That name doesn't ring any bells, but seeing as I can't find any further relatives except my great grand parents whose to say.
Thanks
