Looking for William George STUBBINGS
« on: Sunday 19 June 05 18:57 BST (UK) »
Hi,

   I m trying to find the birth or baptism details of William George stubbings c. 1853.  The 1881 .91 and .01 censuses give him as born in Haverhill, how accurate this is I m not certain.  I ve tried the civ. reg. indexes but can t confirm anything from it.  Ancestry and Freebmd the same.  I m wondering if the 1851 or .61 Suffolk censuses would reveal the family.  If anybody can help me here I d be most grateful.

   Thanks

    Nimrod

Hi Joe,

     Thanks very much, just located the entries you mentioned.  I think I can dismiss the Boreham one but the Maldon entry sounds interesting as this is where William was settled with his family after marrying in 1873  (in Latchingdon I believe).  It could just be coincidence, however he seemed convinced in the later censuses of .81 .91. 01 that he hailed from Haverhill. Perhaps his marriage certificate and birth, if I can find it, will reveal the facts.

      Thanks

My main field of interest is the name of Thake. One of my near relatives by marriage is the granddaughter of William George Stubbings. Her mother Agnes Ada Stubbings was born 10.04.1895 in Maldon and was registered as the daughter of William Stubbings and his wife Jane nee Dowsett. According to Agnes Ada's birth certificate the family was then living at Halfway Houses Maldon. I don't know if this information is relevant to your entry, if it is then I do happen to have more details. I believe William George Stubbings was at one time working on a farm on Osea Island.

I have been  through the census returns and I really think this is the one and same George. Some f the confusion I think is the "place of birth" in that in the 19th century part of Haverhill was in Suffolk and part in Essex. A number of Haverhill residents in the Haverhill 1871 census gave their Haverhill address as Red Oaks Hill and Red Oaks Hill is just up the road from the pub at Radwinter and to get to Red Oaks Hill from Haverhill one had to drive through a part of Cambridgeshire
