Essex / Re: Crowland and Taylor
« on: Wednesday 07 April 21 14:44 BST (UK)  »
Thank you very much, so I now know why I could not trace Mary Ann after her marriage.      I do not know how I missed her death.      But who was Charles Taylor, son of Charles Taylor, and where was he in 1871 census?

Essex / Crowland and Taylor
« on: Wednesday 07 April 21 11:25 BST (UK)  »
I hope that someone may be able to help me with Mary Ann Crowland and Charles Taylor.

Mary Ann is on 1851 census as a 2month old living with parents James and Rachael in Heybridge.      She is on the 1861 as 10 year old living with parents at Heybridge.

Mary Ann married Charles Taylor in Maldon 1869 q2 4A 265.      No solid knowledge of who Charles is or where from.

They had a son Stephen Charles baptised 31 Jul 1870 at St Mary, Maldon father a tinman of St Peter in Maldon.

Stephen Charles is on the 1871 census living with Rachael Crowland, his grandmother.

I cannot find Mary Ann or Charles Taylor in 1871 census, or anywhere after 31 July 1870

I understand that a tinman was a tinsmith, who worked with tinned metals and similar sheet metals.      Presumably Bentalls and perhaps Maldon Iron Works - amongst others - might have provided work.

But where have Mary Ann and Charles gone?      Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome and helpful

Coelmar.

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Susannah Euston of Buxhall

Many thanks to you both.      I have not only demolished a wall, I have learnt how it was done.      A sort of 2 for the price of one.
Again, many thanks.

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Susannah Euston of Buxhall
« on: Saturday 03 April 21 18:26 BST (UK)  »
I have hit one of the legendary brick walls.      I hope there is someone who can help me through over or under it?

Susannah, wife of George Euston, died 1889 in Stow Regn District, probably in Buxhall.     I think she had four children by George - Ernest 1880-1960. Ellen 1882--1889, Kate 1887-, and Arthur 1888-1889.

George was born 1858 in Buxhall, and after Susannah's death he married Kate Bradley of Gt Finborough in 1894.      Kate and George had Sidney Frank 1894-1975,Wilfred James 1897-1917, Minnie 1899, Rose Ellen 1901, Cecil George 1904, John William 1906.

So far so correct I hope.      But who was Susannah?      1881 census shows her age 22 born in Buxhall.

My brick wall then is Susannah - any help on her maiden name would be very much appreciated.

Thank you all very much indeed.     
I have a lot of details of the family's goings on in Northants, and know some of her descendants.      The family know of Samson's frequent brushes with the law, but had no real knowledge of Jemima.      I have been unable to find a marriage in Plymouth area which fits.
Again, thanks for all the details.
And it is still raining!

Cornwall / Jemima Aver
« on: Wednesday 19 August 20 14:50 BST (UK)  »
Hello, on a glorious (?) wet day
   I am trying to trace the story of Jemima Rickard, nee Aver.      She lived at Towcester, Northants from about 1845 until her death in 1877.     
   I think she was baptised at Kenwyn in 1820, and the 1841 census gives her as a single person in Probus workhouse.      Ancestry gives her discharge from Bodmin Prison as 1844 regn no. 9845: and 1845 regn no. 10198.
    She had a son James at Towcester Workhuse in 1850, giving her as Jemima Rickard nee Aver.
    The 1851 census gives her as born Truro, married, head of household with one child, living at Towcester.       
    Her Settlement Examination at Towcester 1854 says she married James Rickard "years ago", but he left her on 13 March 1850, she has no contact with him or her parents.and she has no contact with her mother and father.

     I would like to know why she was in Bodmin Prison, was she there once or twice (or more?), and why she had rejected her parents.

      Can anyone offer any help to brighten up a pretty nasty day here in East Anglia?

Northamptonshire / Re: Rose Jane Harrison Bigamist marriage 1896
« on: Thursday 21 May 20 14:00 BST (UK)  »
Thank You, all of you, for sorting me out.     I feel pretty confident that

1843  Mary Jane Dalley on GRO births
1861  Mary Jane Dalley age 6 on census, dau of John and Ann
1871  Mary Jane Dalley age 17 on census as domestic servant
1874  Rose Jane H Dalley on GRO births   note the H
1876  Rose Jane Dalley baptised at St Andrew, Northampton, mother Mary, no father
1877  William John S Dalley on GRO births
1880  Mary Jane and Thomas Harrison married
1881  Rose Jane Dally dau, and William J Dalley son, of Thos, and Mary Harrison on census
1891  Rose J Harrison age 17 working as a cook in Bolton
1896  Rose Jane Harrison married Dexter Dalley.

Dalley to Harrison to Dalley via Dally and Dalby caused me some confusion, but I'm now sorted, Thanks

   Coelmar.

Northamptonshire / Rose Jane Harrison Bigamist marriage 1896
« on: Wednesday 20 May 20 21:43 BST (UK)  »
     Rose Jane Harrison age 23 of 21 Victoria Promenade, Northampton, married Dexter Thomas Dalley on 25 Dec 1896 at All Saints, Northampton giving her father as Thomas Harrison, collier?   page 58 No. 115 of register  witnesses William John Dalley (?) and Edith Mary Ward.
     Rose Jane Harrison age 23 of 21 Victoria Promenade, Northampton, married William George Smith on 25 Dec 1896 at All Saints, Northampton giving her father as John Henry Cox, groom   page 58 No. 116 of register   witnesses Annie Cox and John Henry Cox.

     Yes, I know, Christmas Day, brandy for the parson and baccy ......

      I know Rose Dalley had Henry 1897, Herbert 1901 and Edith 1904.     I also know Rose J gave her birth date on the 1939 Register as 7 July 1874.
      She may have been living in Bolton as a 17year old cook from Northampton at 1891 census, but would only have been 16. 
      She may have been daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Harrison of Birmingham in 1881 and 1891 census, but again a year out in age.
       Pretty certain she is not Rose daughter of Vincent Frost O'Connor publican, drunkard and adulterer (or so his wife said at the divorce) of Northampton.
       I have tried FindMyPast and Ancestry, a number of near fits, but no actual hits. 

       Covid lockdown and a dodgy knee are enough for me, but Rose really is pushing it too far!
Can anyone offer ideas as to her origins, please?

Thanks

Coelmar
