Kemp of Grantham.

[David Layne]

I am seeking information about the Kemp family of Grantham circa 1900's.  Any information would be appreciated.

I would also like to refer you to this post.

Suzard thanks for your prompt reply.

At the moment I do not have a certain d.o.b. for Emily or Maggie.

I don't think the Kemps you have found are my Emile or Maggie.  My Emile gave birth to my mother in 1917.

The Thomas Kemp you have found will be my Great Grandfather.  I will be interested in whatever details you can find.

[suzard]

Then could this be your Emily's marriage?

Dec qtr 1913
Alfred G Maunders
Emily Kemp
Grantham

Suz

Yes it is!  Can you come up with anything on the Maunders?

[suzard]

I'll look for the Maunders in a mo - have located maggie -but no sign of Emily ... yet

wouldn't be surprised if Thomas had been previously married -big gap in age of children

don't know where maggie and Emily were??

EDIT: It seems a lot of errors were made by the enumerator on 1901 census

Anne (wife) should be Adelaide
Moses (son) should e Alfred (I think!)
Mary should be Maggie
Ethel should be Emily
