Ladyman
« on: Monday 26 September 05 18:30 BST (UK) » |
|
According to a family bible Sarah Ladyman was born 1 August 1842. She married George Peskett in 1864 in St. George's, Hanover Square, Middlesex, England and they lived in Odiham, Hampshire.
The LDS shows her in the 1881 census for Odiham and her birth place is given as Deptford, Kent and her age as 53, making her birth circa 1828!
I have been unable to establish her correct birth details and wonder whether anyone is able to assist with this.

Do you know the names of Sarah's parents so that we can look for her in 1861? Does the Bible give details of any siblings?
It's quite a large discrepancy, isn't it!

Unfortunately I don't have details of Sarah's parents or any siblings. The only clue that I have is her birth place, which is shown on the 1881 census as Deptford, Kent.
I have not actually seen the 1881 census record so I suppose it is possible that her age may have been wrongly transcribed in the LDS record.

No - I've checked the image, and it definitely says age 53.
Two possibilities, therefore:
1. The 1881 census is "your" Sarah née Ladyman, and the Bible entry is completely wrong. 
2. The 1881 census shows a different couple also called George and Sarah.
It looks like the only solution is to buy their wedding certificate, which should give their ages (but may only say they were of "full" age, ie over 21), and also their father's names/occupations, which will help locate them on the earlier censuses.
Unles someone else can come up with something...

The census data that I have is as follows:
1881 Census
RG11 Piece1249 Folio15 Page24
Odiham, Hampshire
Pesket
George Head marr 51 Plumber/Painter emp 2men b Godalming, Surrey
Sarah Wife Marr 53 b Deptford, Kent
George Son 15 b Woolwich, Kent
Harry Son 14 b Plumstead, Kent
May Dau 12 B Plumstead, Kent
.........................................................................
1891 census:
RG12 Piece 953 Folio 12 pge 17
No actual address but the one above is The Bell Inn, Odiham
Peskett
George Head Wid 61 Plumber b Godalming, Surrey
George Son Unm 25 Plumber b Woolwich, Kent
Harry Son Unm 24 Painter b Plumstead, Kent
May Dau Unm 22 Dressmaker b Plumstead, Kent
These details definitely relate to my family as a living family member still has Bury Cottage, which is next to the Bell Inn in Odiham.
However, the family bible is very clear in stating that Sarah was born in 1842.
