Proctor
« on: Saturday 02 January 10 20:38 GMT (UK) »

I was wondering if anyone had any information on anyone from the Proctor family.

My great grandfather was John William Robert Proctor, he married Jessie Prior.
His father was called George Proctor (i think), and that is as far as i have managed to get to.

Hi,

Do you have any more information?

Any occupations, area of London/Middlesex, approximate years for births/marriages/deaths?

Have you found anyone on a census?

Hi,

Is this your couple?    (Found on FreeBMD)


John WR Proctor   DecQ 1915     Camberwell   1d  2753    Bride:  Jessie E Prior



A copy of the certificate should confirm the name of John's father.

From FreeBMB
John W R PROCTOR married Jessie E PRIOR, Dec qtr 1915, Dec qtr 1915, 1d 2753.

By ordering the marriage certificate this will give you their fathers names, and so get another generation back, and also to help find them on the census.

If John's father is George, this seems a likely candidate
Christ Church, Camberwell baptism
1889 Sep 15, John William Robert, s/o George & Eliza PROCTOR, 18 Sheriton St, Brass finisher

The only Jessie E PRIOR birth in the area is in 1896 in Greenwich, Jessie Elizabeth. But only the marriage cert will confirm if she is the right one.

The above John in 1891
45 Naylor Rd, Camberwell
George PROCTOR, head mar 23, Brass finisher, born Maidstone
Eliza PROCTOR, wife mar 21, born Peckham
Thomas G PROCTOR, son 4, born ditto
John W PROCTOR, son 2, born Camberwell
Florence G PROCTOR, dau 5mo, born ditto
RG12/481/87/23

Thank you for all your replies, this will help me a little more.

From what i have, if it is correct.... he had a sister called Florence and a brother called Thomas.

John and Jessie had 3 children (could be more, but this is all i found), called Gordon, Jean and Edna Louisa Proctor.

I have ordered their marriage certificate, so will see what comes back on this. It's just a waiting game.

thank you again.   :)
