Underhill's of Warwickshire

[trish1120]

Hi again GingerVicky,

I may be clutching at straws here but;

1881 Census has a Ada GILES, born c 1869 Leamington with her Father JOHN 1844 Northamptonshire in Warwickshire.

A Ada Elizabeth GILES Marries Dec 1886 Coventry Reg. Frank YARDLEY possible Spouse

[GingerVicky]

Wow lots in of info thanks.  My Ethel Underhill married Percy Powell in 1912. I did see the wiederhold census. Quite a lot if Underhills to sort through

[trish1120]

Yes lots of info!.
It seems to me that they (Stephen/Ada) may have both been married before they got together and were not free to marry one another til 1914.
You may have to buy a couple of Certs to confirm all of this.

So do you think they were together but married to other people?  So Ethel his daughter? So confusing

[GingerVicky]

So I've got back as far as John Underhill married to martha.  His parents are john and jane parsons.  Anyone know when john senior was born and who his parents were?

[trish1120]

Yes I do think that.

1881 Census Stephen is Married to a Mary with a Son John age 1

By 1891 he is with Ada E and yes it is likely Ethel Edith is his Daughter as her Birth is Reg as Edith Ada U (presume Underhill) Yardley.

I would get her Birth Cert if I was you and the 1914 Marriage Cert.

I havent found what happened to Mary and Son John, she may be with someone else also.
For most people Divorce was too expensive in those days.

Will look around more for you later today.

1841 John/Jane are in Warwick, 1851 she is Widowed.

F/S.Org;
Burial;
JOHN Underhill, 28 Dec 1846, St Mary, Warwick, Warwickshire, age 53, Birth c 1794
Residence Bridge End (matches address on 1841 Census)

So you need to find on F/S all of John/Janes Childrens  Christenings to give you an idea of his Fathers name. There is often a naming pattern.

[GingerVicky]

Thank you you have been a big help

Hello, this is my first post, but seeing the "Underhills of Warwickshire" I couldn't help but reply ... I am one of them

Of course there are many branches, mine going back to Joseph and Elizabeth Clerkson married at St Nicholas in 1750.  For 20years I have been searching for a precedent.  I will return to Warwick next month (I live in AZ).  For the next 100 years life centered around St Nicholas Church (BMD's) and Bridge End (probably stone masons to the EArl of Warwick as it is less than 1 mile from the castle)

So if there are specific questions I'd be glad to try to help.
