Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Mystery re 1891 census PARKER
« on: Monday 11 July 05 21:10 BST (UK) »
I would really appreciate anyone's suggestions and input!
This is my PARKER family:
Henry PARKER, born about 1860 in Chatham, Kent, brickmaker
Adelaide (BEAUMONT) PARKER, born 1861 in Gillingham, Kent
Rose PARKER, born about 1880 in Chatham, Kent
Amelia PARKER, born 15 August 1881 in Gillingham, Kent
They were listed in the 1881 census just before Amelia was born.
But, a couple of years ago when I had access to a census service, I couldn't find them as a family unit in 1891.
I don't know when or where Henry and Adelaide PARKER died. I couldn't find a death record for an Adelaide PARKER between 1881-1891 on Free BMD.
Family lore states that Amelia had a brother who died during the First World War and that her sister, Rose, died at 16 of tuberculosis. Amelia's nickname was "Milly" or "Millie".
In the 1891 census, I found:
District 8, Dean Prior, Devon
19 Bakers Cottages?
Living in the household of Mary LOCK, widow, 60:
Rose PARKER, Lodger, 11, scholar, born Chatham, Kent
Minnie PARKER, Lodger, 9, scholar, born Chatham, Kent
And:
Her Majesty's Prison
East Maidstone, Maidstone, Kent
Adelaide PARKER, prisoner, 27, married, tailoress, born Chatham, Kent
Could anyone advise me on how I might determine if these are my family members?
Thank you!
Josephine
