Lucy VANCUT c 1798 from Mortimer
« on: Saturday 08 February 14 11:23 GMT (UK) »
Hopefully the name VANCUT is correctly spelt. Please can anyone help with details of this lady who might have married or cohabited with a Charles Beach in London?.  The 1851 Census gives Lucy's birthplace as Mortimer Berks.

The 1851 Census gives Lucy's birthplace as Mortimer Berks.


I wonder if surname should be CANCUT

this Lucy’s pob & her occupation (although noted a formerly laundress) same as 1851 census

1861c RG 9; Piece: 25; Folio: 17; Page: 28
Lucy CANCUTT Head Widow 66 Mortimer Berks occ. formerly Laundress

From 1851 c here's son's Frederick Beach's baptism

Frederick BEACH was bapt on 22 Nov 1830 at St Mary Abbots Church, Kensington
Parents Charles occ Lab. & Lucy abode Charles Street

Frederick's marriage in 1852 to Sarah Pusey shows his father name as Charles occ Carptener deceased

This looks to be Lucy & Frederick on 1841c same address as 1851c
Cromwell's Buildings Hammersmith Frederick Beach is living at No 6 Cromwell's building with
is wife & 3 children

1841 HO107; P 690 Civil Parish: Hammersmith E D: 12; F60; P30
Christopher CANCUT 50 occ Ag. lab.
LUCY 40
Jane 20
FREDERICK 10
Henry 2 mths
all born in this county

ADDED

Sorry have had no luck finding out anything else about Lucy born Mortimer Berkshire
when or if she married either Charles Beach or Christopher Cancut(t)

I'm not seeing a baptism with parents Christopher & Lucy for Henry Cancut

Perhaps the Henry age 2mths is the grandson of Christopher Cancut and therefore may be the son of his daughter Jane

there's also this baptism Henry Harvey Cancut born 11 April 1841 mother Jane Cancut

- unfortunately the 1841 census does not show relationships

Ladyhawk
Thanks for your help which has redirected my thinking.
At this distance in time and with just fragments of information I will have to be patient and hopeful.
The 1841 with Lucy as a Caucut puts a doubt in my mind as she is listed As born in county.
Again many thanks

Your Cancut(t)s seem to be elusive people. The baptism for little Henry seems to fit with being Jane's illegitimate child and judging from name, the natural father could be a Mr Harvey. But I've found no birth registration for him, no death for Christopher between 1841 and 1851, nothing for Jane (marriage or death) and no death or remarriage for Lucy. Searching as Cancut and Cancutt. But there is a death for a Christopher Caucutt Q4 1850 Kensington district and a death for Lucy also as Caucutt Q1 1865 also Kensington district. Both these from Freebmd.
Searching on Family search under Caucut gives Christopher son of Christopher and Elizabeth bapt 11 Jun 1815. Christopher jnr marries in 1839.  But still nothing for Lucy's marriages, one definitely before civil registration, the other one possibly.
