Minnie Thomas
« on: Sunday 19 August 18 12:42 BST (UK) »
Would be eternally grateful if someone can locate Minnie Thomas (nee Kite) born in Dover, and family in Nottingham area - probably Beeston - in 19ll.  Here's hoping.

We are not allowed to do 1911 look ups, have you tried familysearch

You have not given a year of birth.  I can't see a Minnie Kite marrying a ...Thomas

Hi Rosie99,

Only trace of her in Family Search is her birth in Dover C1882.  In 1901 she is living in Woolwich with her sister, Amy Thomas, having married the brother of her sister's husband Arthur. Don't know Minnie's sister's husbands first name. Several male sons in the Thomas family, who came from Liverpool. Both men were away serving with the Royal Artillery in the Second Boer War. Minnie seems to have disappeared after 190l. Minnie was one of four sisters, and I have photograph of them all taken when they were all in their 80s.

Hello,

I can see Minnie b Dover, living in Plumstead in 1901 (Woolwich district).

Why are you looking for her in Nottinghamshire and is Liverpool significant?

Did she have any children?

Marriage
Dover 1895 Amy Kezia Kite and Arthur Howard Thomas

This is sister’s marriage so above marriage looks good. Perhaps she was just dittoed as ‘Thomas’.

If the above is the correct Minnie, then she died as Minnie Tungate in Lichfield R/D in Dec 1981, she was born 23 Nov 1881.

She is widowed on the 1939 register and is still Lichfield R/D

Does this ring any bells?
