Henry Woodward

[Barry Ponsford]

Does anyone have any pictures or other information regarding Henry Woodward born c.1859 in Abingdon (I believe), he married Martha Sawyer and might have married Lydia (nee unknown). He died around 1916, location unknown.
In 1911 census he was living in 11 Walter Street, Kingston Upon Thames along with his wife Lydia and  his children Henry (33), George (20) and Mary (17).

Any help would be most welcome?

He was a widower in 1901

So this looks like his 2nd marriage:

There is a Henry Woodward in the 1881 census living in Kingston on Thames Surrey born c1860, occ: General Dealer with wife Martha and son Henry aged 4.  His birth place is recorded as Chertsey Surrey.
Marriage for Henry Wooodward and Martha Sawyer in 1876 Kingston Surrey gives Henry Woodward's father as Joseph Woodward

[suzard]

Henry was age 17 when he married and Martha was 15

on marriage Henry gives Occ as Dealer and father Joseph's occ is "soldier"

There is a Henry Woodward in Kingston in 1871 lodging in Thames Street listed immediately above him is a Joseph Woodward - no relationships shown

Joseph was age 60 and married and was born Spain Peninsular

Both were Hawkers

In 1881 Joseph is still in Kingston in the workhouse

The Joseph that I found died as follows
Sep qtr 1887   
Joseph Woodward   age    76   
Kingston    2a   186   

His burial at All Saints on 19 September gives his abode as Pheasant Lane, Kingston.  Henry is living at Pheasant Lane in 1891 

[suzard]

think the 1881 Joseph is the correct one

1881
Union Workhouse Kingston Surrey
Joseph Woodward married 70 ex soldier ( his occ on Henry's marriage was soldier) Spain British Subject Blind
