John William Barnes

[curtisd]

How would I find ancestors of Lily Barnes? Does anyone have access to the 1901 or 1911 Census for 20 Holland Road, Kensington?

FindMyPast is the only website which allows an address search but its T & C's prohibit publication of that information

You would have to buy credits to search

Are there any other ways to find out the parents of Lily Barnes? I cannot find a likely birth certificate on freebmd.

[CaroleW]

To find a birth you would have to have an approx birthyear as well as the county in which she was born.  Even then - if there were more than one possible entry you would need more info to narrow it down

If we assume she was 19 when she had her son - ber birthyear would be approx 1906/07

Freebmd has 17 birth entries for a Lily Barnes between 1906-1907

That is where I got stuck, there is so many Lily Barnes. Thank you for your help.

Good find Jennifer - is it too much of a coincidence for there not to be a connection??

This is the only Lily E Barnes birth between 1908-1909

Births June qtr 1909  Lily Eveline Barnes    Chorlton  8c 820

In 1952 Albert aged 62 was travelling with his wife  Alice V aged 61 to 38 Channor/Chinnor Crescent Greenford Middlesex.  His occupation was Secretary/Treasurer

In 1955 Albert is shown as  b 22.8.1889 and Alice 10.3.1891 and address shown as 2 Westfield Way Ruislip Middlesex

This is the same Albert C Alder I posted birth details for in my earlier reply

Marriage on freebmd in 1915 Greenwich shows Alice as Alice V Roberts

3.4.1915 St Pauls Greenwich

Albert Charles Alder 25 commercial Clerk father William Giles Alder cab driver - deceased

Alice Violet Roberts 24 father William Charles Roberts cellar man

Thank you, it is interesting that there may be a connection to Quebec. I have ordered Births June qtr 1909  Lily Eveline Barnes    Chorlton  8c 820

Is it likely that this is the same Lily E Barnes? John William Barnes was born Kensington so it seems likely to me?
