My great aunt Elsie b Mar q 1896 in Weston-super-mare, moved down to Bournemouth to live sometime after her brother my grandfather came to Bournemouth. I dont know if whilst living in Bournemouth she met 'the love of her life' Julia Fallow. ;) For sometime they both lived in Castlemain Avenue in Southbourne, Bournemouth but then moved to New Milton. When they both died, they were buried together. I tried to find out where in New Milton they lived, but was told by the library that the street directories were at Lymington. I would dearly love to find out more about my great aunt and Julia Fallow. I have lots of pictures of the two together with my family. Can anyone help me locate their address in New Milton? regards Trish

Hi Trish,
What is Elsie's surname? (Is she Elsie I Pike?? - added)
Thanks,
Copperbeech5
PS If you have old photos of the ladies at the address where they lived, why not post one, and I am sure the Rootschatters will soon tell you!

The only Julia Fallow I can find around that sort of date is one born Leeds 1904 - might that be a possibility?
-
Her surname was Fear. Regards Trish

Hi
If you search the 1911 for
Elsie Fear b1896 Sparkford you may get a start.
Sparkford is Weston Bampfylde (Somerset)
but not Weston Super Mare (Somerset)

I wonder if you could do one last thing? Were either of the two brothers Jack or Gilbert married?

Gilbert H Fear died March quarter 1946 age 35 in Wells, Somerset.
Jack Leslie Fear born 18th February 1907 died March quarter 1980 age 73 in Sedgemoor, Somerset.
Have you looked for them in 1939 to see what household they were in?

When Gilbert Henry died his administration went to Edna Kate Bowden (wife of Leslie Edward Bowden), though that does not necessarily mean he was not married.
