Looking for info on the Startup family
« on: Tuesday 09 March 10 11:56 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone

I am looking for information on my my great grandmother Alice Murial Startup. I know she was born in May 1908 and her father was Francis Cecil Hill Startup. Anyone help?

working back from Alice birth in 1908,

Births Jun 1908   
 
Startup  Alice Muriel A    Nottingham  7b 480


this seems to be her parents marriage?

Marriages Mar 1905   
 
STARTUP  Francis Cecil H    Staines  3a 26   
AND
WICHENS  Alice     Staines  3a 26   

OR alternate spelling

WICKENS  Alice     Staines  3a 26   

You will have to get the Marriage Papers to ID Alice by her Father's name back in the 1881/91/01 census.


they moved around a bit - did they settle in Kent later?

still in Nottingham 3 years after Alice Muriel's birth. Francis' Mother Ann (see later info) is there and another child Charles Cecil, born c1907.

Fran* Cecil Hill Startup seems to be in Ecclesall Bierlow, Yorkshire

You could use 'Pay to View' on the 1911 census to establish more details.

Francis should be found on the 1881 census, which will show his parents hopefully, as he was born:-

Births Jun 1880   
 
STARTUP  Francis Cecil H    Kensington  1a 149


Murphy rules - Father isnt there, and Mum is not shown as Head, altho' they have their own Schedule #, they seem to be in the Household of a George Handley (a Carpenter).

Francis Cecil Startup 11 months old  born Kensington

This has to be Francis Cecil Hill Startup's parents marriage - look at her Maiden name.

Marriages Sep 1879   
 
Brooks  Amelia    Kensington  1a 118   
Harrington  John Millison     Kensington  1a 118   
HILL  Ann      Kensington  1a 118   
STARTUP  Frank Morris      Kensington  1a 118


There is a FRANK Startup - a Butler, in Kensington.

In service to a Hobart Ricketh,

to tidy up at this stage (altho there is a lot more that can be done), here is Ann* Hill with her Family in 1851

HO107; Piece: 1649; Folio: 318; Page: 15 Petworth, 'Back Street'

all children stated as born in Petworth

John Hill 39 Head of Household born Petworth: Milkman & Ag Lab
Harriet Hill 40 wife born Sussex, Oving
Harriet Hill 15 dau DressMakers Apprentice
John Hill 14 son
Henry Hill 11 son
Jane Hill 8 dau
Ann Hill 6 dau
William Hill 1 son

John & Harriet's marriage will pre-date Civil Registration, which started late in 1837.
