Norfolk / Taylor family 1840-1920
« on: Sunday 05 February 12 18:06 GMT (UK) »
Am researching the Taylor family between 1840-1920 (ish).
On various entries, they are listed as residing in the Thurlton, Loddon, and Norton Subcourse areas of Norfolk. I understand it was a large family, and any help in identifying or tracing any of the many children would be appreciated.

Thanks again Suz. You've got me real hooked now 
It's turning into a drama of sorts.......
One of the few things Lucy actually told us ws that she ws moved to London aged 12 ?? That was obviously not the case ( however, she was in her 90's when she said it !)
She couldn't have moved on her own steam, and working for a police officer could have given her the move if he was transfered
I will look at that 1881 census as you suggest and maybe something will ring a bell

Thank you so much Suz.
I have a much better picture now of their lives which must have been really something with all those children.
As the 1901 census only shows Elizabeth at Norton St with daughter Millicent and grand daughter Sybil, there must have been some traumatic times in that household between 1891 and 1901.
Look forward to the next chapter ( if you find one .
Regards

Elizabeth Curtis Constance married an Edward Taylor and between them, they had (at least ) 22 children.
Elizabeth was born in the Haddiscoe district of Norfolk, She lived most of her life in Loddon.
Would love some infromation about her and her life, and of course, her 22 children.

Lucy Mary Ann Taylor b Oct 1886 is indeed the one.
She married Edward Batchelor Martin in 1908.
I now know her parents, Edward Taylor and Elizabeth Curtis Constance...thank you.
My information originaly came from the lady herself, quite a long while ago now, before she died. She was reluctant to say much at all at the time, and the family knowledge of her side is quite limited.
She claimed she was one of about 22 children !! but her family know very little about them and nothing at all of her life, something I'm trying to change. Every piece of info I can get will help to do this. She has one remaining living child who is anxious to know something of her mothers life.
