« on: Saturday 11 December 10 10:46 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to clear a mystery up,involving Florence Lettice Knight and her parents,she was born 8 August 1879 at Westmoreland Road Newington,her parents were given as Arthur Knight and Lettice White,the problem being i have marriage certificate for Lettice White to Robert White at Islington registry office on 15 Oct.1870,i found them on 1871 census down as lodgers Lettices birth place correct,on 1881 census i have Arthur and Lettice with daughter Florrie,Arthurs age makes his year of birth about four years after that of Robert on 1871 census,both give place of birth as Reigate,i have a family of Thomas Knight at Reigate with two sons Robert and Arthur whose ages match my two,i have a death certificate forb a Robert Knight 9 November 1871 at Islington and checking 1871 census my Robert Knight is only one in Islington and age on death certificate matches,but informant is not Lettice.To further complicate things on marriage certificate,Florence gives father as Robert Knight deceased,Lettice re-married to James Jory in 1899 and i have found them on 1901 census,but cannot find Lettice on 1911 census or a death registration and James Jory is on 1911 census but not as widow

« on: Friday 29 May 09 10:56 BST (UK)  »
Looking for a death of Edward Kibblewhite,emigrated to Christchurch N.Z.arrived 1859,nothing found on him after arrival,one family story has a Kibblewhite being shot and killed while working as an out rider for Nelson gold coaches,supposedly by Ned Kellys gang,but as they were never in N.Z.its possible he went to Australia and died there,no death for him in N.Z. bmd,he had died by time of his fathers death in 1883,as he is not shown as surviving son
