Wow you all never fail to amaze me. I can’t believe you have solved the puzzle of Jane Claridge.

I guessed Mary Ann Winch was not able to remarry and just took William’s name.

Elizabeth Colston was Williams first wife who he married before coming up to London from Bristol. Elizabeth died in 1847 in the London Hospital, sadly her death certificate gives her cause of death as prostrate cancer so I am none the wiser.
 
William seems to pick up with Mary Ann after her husband left some time between 1847 and Jane’s birth.

As you have pointed out I picked her up from being a witness at son Williams marriage and unpicked who her children were and who they married.

My husband is also a William and is the first in five generations to have not been a glass blower. Over the years I must admit the occupation was helpful in identifying them.

Thank you all once again for your wonderful generosity in helping me.

Thank you so much for your help, just a shame it wasn’t the answer I hoped for.😏 I’m not sure if they even married as I have an idea she was still married and her husband had left her. Still that little problem didn’t stop a lot of people who would not have been able to get a divorce.

In the 1851 census she is William Claridge/ Carridge with a mixture of his children and hers. There seems to have been a daughter Jane Claridge age 1 in 1851 census but she seems to disappear, any ideas would be welcome.

Hi all it’s been awhile but when in doubt ask the best problem solver’s on here.

I have a marriage for a Mary Ann Winch oct/dec 1852 1c 553 Bethnal Green, the bdm does not give a groom. I would really appreciate if someone could trace her other half. I am taking a guess it may have been at St.Matthias church. I m hoping it is William Claridge but spelt wrongly.

Fingers crossed and thank you in advance for any help given.

Thank you so much, can I be cheeky and ask if they are around on the 1841 census. I had forgotten how addictive this hobby is.

Thank you. Jennifer

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Shayshutt

Hi all I had a great response from the Essex board regarding people and places in Orsett Essex as I was taking a group from my U3A to visit the church and places of interest. It all went great and was rounded off with a lovely pub lunch.

During the lunch a new member was saying she could not find anything about her Shayshutt family. A name like that is catnip to me and after many years away and now limited resources I have her grandfather Uriah Shayshutt born 1882 Plaistow married Jean Sarah Slowley Orsett 1907 died Thurrock 1962.

I have his parents as John Shayshutt born 1844 France and Elizabeth nee Hayward born 1965 Southampton.

I believe John to be the son of Benjamin Shayshutt and would like to know Benjamins occupation to perhaps give a clue why John was born in France, I’m guessing military but any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance  Jennifer
