I was interested in this article about the Hoste Arms
in Burnham Market, since a relation (John Wharton Womack)
used to run it. The "Grandma Womack"
of the article is John's Wife.
http://www.edp24.co.uk/features/visitors-of-yesteryear-to-burnham-market-s-hoste-arms-1-5241146Being nosy, I decided to check out
Peter Kimpton's relationship to me.
Since Peter is 76, we know his DOB is about 1941.
His mother died in 1995, and was called Kathleen.
Turning to freeBMD, a simple name+date search gives
Sep 1941
KIMPTON Peter H L Oxley Cirencester 6a 1064
Adding the MMN, taking off the forename, and widening the date
adds a brother
Births Mar 1946
Kimpton Paul S Oxley Thanet 2a 2605
Changing from Birth to Marriage gives:
Marriages Jun 1940
Kimpton Harold G Oxley Thanet 2a 4602
Oxley Kathleen H Kimpton Thanet 2a 4602
The Kathleen shows I'm very likely on the right track.
A tree on Ancestry shows Kathleens mother to be a "Briden"
not a Womack, so it looks like the Womack connection
should be Harold G Kimpton's Mother.
But here's where it goes wrong. FreeBMD has no Kimpton/Womack marriage.
Back checking, FreeBMD shows
Births Dec 1914
Kimpton Harold G Womack B. Stortford 3a 1401
So this IS the connection.
An online tree of the Womack family gives:
https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Person:John_Womack_%2838%29 Ellen Eugenie Womack 1878 -
Ethel Mary Womack 1879 - 1963
Olive Ada Womack 1880 -
Marian Eveline Womack 1881 -
Royal John Womack 1883 - 1966
Eva Alice Womack 1884 - 1884
Emily Alice Womack 1885 -
Grace Myra Womack 1888 - 1888
Harold Hugh Womack 1890 - 1962
Latimer Womack 1892 - 1892
I believe I have found by elimination that Harold G Kimpton's mother
was Marian Eveline Womack, but I cannot find positive proof.
Can anyone do better?
