Title: Look up request for George Moger of Lyncombe
Post by: Muffin41 on Thursday 23 July 15 10:43 BST (UK)
I am seeking evidence for George Moger baptised 6 Dec 1877 in Lyncombe, he married  Sarah Jane Short 3q 1906 Frome 5c 797.
George Mogerīs parents were John & Emma Moger who had married in 1875; John Mogerīs second marriage.
I cannot find any evidence of where George was living in the 1881 census although John & Emma are there with other children.  RG11; Piece: 2434; Folio: 18; Page: 30


Anything from the 1881; 1891 & 1901 censuses would help me further.

Could this be him with grandparents in 1891?

Robert Goodenough 55 farm servant born Buscot Berks
Ellen Goodnenough 60 born Blunsdon Wilts
George Moger 14 grandson born Bath Somerset

No George with that couple in 1881  :(

Hmmm was hoping his mother was Emma Goodenough but the marriage in 1875 John Moger is to Emma Miles  :-\

This might tie in with the 1891 found above.

1881 Stanford in the Vale Berks

George Moges 4 nephew born Bath Somerset living with

James Hattwell 32 ag lab birthplace Sydenham Oxon
Sarah A Hattwell 24 born Highworth Wilts

So either neither or both are your George.

Clutching for a link somewhere as mother Emma is from the same area of Wiltshire however can't find any possibles for George in 1901.

Could Sarah A who married James Hattwell and Emma have been sisters?

Thank you for searching Milliepede :)

I do not have any information about Emma Miles so do not know if she had sisters.

Maybe George served in the Army in the 1880's, I have not checked that aspect yet.

Post by: Milliepede on Thursday 23 July 15 14:07 BST (UK)
Well there is an Emma Miles born 1854 and a Sarah Miles born 1856 who could be sisters but needs more investigation.

George would be rather young to be in the army in the 1880's. 

Perhaps we could rule out the grandson/nephew by tracing him onwards if you don't think it likely he is your boy.

Ops :-[ I meant 1890īs

If you could check out the grandson/nephew out that would clear up that puzzle.

You might be onto something with the army because there is a

George Moger
born abt 1878 Bath Somerset

on the WW1 Pension Records.

Short service attestation in 1899 age 21
Welsh Regiment

Just can't find a marriage for James Hattwell to Sarah A to see what her name was.  Have tried different spellings like Attwell but  ???

Not getting anywhere with the Goodenoughs either sorry.  There only seems to be a son William from a prev marriage? who marries Harriet Ann in 1877.

I have started a Topic on the Armed Forces board for George.

Maybe the 1891 census has a connection to the other children in Bath ???

William James - 4q 1880 Bath 5c 553
Beatrice Mary Catherine - 3q 1882 Bath 5c 606
Robert Joseph - 2q 1884 Bath 5c 591
Arthur Henry - 1q 1886 Bath 5c 593
Edith Annie - 3q 1889 Bath 5c 575

This looks likely for Emma's christening

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NFYR-4PP

Perhaps Ellen Miles became Ellen Goodenough. Ellen Tidmarsh from Blunsdon was a widow before she married Robert Goodenough (at Lechlade in 1871), but I can't find her previous marriage.

Emma's mother seems to have been Ellen Shewry, daughter of  James and Dorothy, baptised Broad Blunsdon 1830.
She married Henry Miles, Highworth RD, 1850.
In 1851 they were with his parents Charles and Elizabeth Miles at Minety and had a daughter Mary.
Henry presumably died before Emma's christening in 1854.
In 1858 Ellen - as Helen Miles - married Thomas Titmarsh (Highworth RD) and in 1861 was living with him at Eastleach Martin in Gloucestershire, with daughters Emma 6 and Sarah Ann 1. They have surname Tidmarsh in the census but presumably Emma should be Miles.

In 1871 she was a widow in Lechlade, with a daughter Catherine aged 9.

In 1877 she married Robert Goodenough.

Sarah Ann Tidmarsh married James Huttell in 1877.

That explains the Goodenough and Hatwell connections.

Oh bravo for finding all that out.  And for finding the marriage of James to Sarah A under Huttell.

So the George grandson and nephew is the one Muffin41 is looking for.

Thank you David for your research and finding the answer. :D

Now I can find out more and fill in some gaps in my own research.
