Family History Beginners Board / Searching for Mary Livermore in 1881
« on: Thursday 02 December 21 11:55 GMT (UK)  »
In 1876 Edward Livermore (b. Terling, Essex 1850) married Mary Jane Bagnall (b. 1851 Stoke on Trent) in Egginton, Derbyshire. They had two sons: Edward John (b. 1877 Draycott-In-The-Clay, Staffs) and Charles Ernest (b. 1879 in Leicestershire).

In the 1881 census Edward snr. was employed as a Butler for John Bibby JP, a retired merchant in Calderstone Road, Allerton, Lancs.  His son Edward (aged 3), is listed as a boarder with William Roberts (Brewers Labourer) in Anslow, Burton Upon Trent, Staffs.

In the 1891 census Edward, (Market Gardener) was at Cropthorne, St John, Burstow, Surrey with his sons Edward (13) and Charles (12), his mother Sarah and sister Louisa.  His wife Mary Livermore was at Disney Place, St Peter in East Gate, Lincs. employed as a Servant - Cook, Housekeeper for Emily Melville.

In 1899 Edward snr died in Burton upon Trent, Staffs.

In the 1901 census Mary Livermore was employed as a Servant - Cook at Brocksford Hall, near Doveridge, Derbyshire, home of Charles W J Smith.  Edward jnr is in Anslow, Burton Upon Trent, Staffs, again boarding with Wm Roberts (Farmer), occ. General Farm Labourer.  Charles is a lodger at Upper Outwood Staffs, occ. Brewers Labourers.

I believe Mary died in 1903.

I’m unable to find an 1881 census record for Mary Jane Livermore or her son Charles.  Can you help please?

Family History Beginners Board / Searching for Henry James Turmeau

Henry James Turmeau (b. 1791Middlesex) married Charlotte Owen on 5 August 1820 in Westminster, Middlesex.

The 1841 census shows them at London Street, St Pancras, Middlesex with 5 children. Henry was a Jewellers Case Maker.

In 1851 a Henry Turmeau is listed in a Directory as a Carver & Gilder at 188 Tottenham Court Road – possibly Henry’s son, also Henry.

A record shows a Henry Turmeau entered Colney Hatch Asylum on 31 Dec 1851 and died there 17 May 1852.  I believe this is Henry’s son Henry William Charles (a Gilder) who married Eliza Pheby in 1847 (father Henry Turmeau, Jewel Case Maker).  Eliza Turmeau, a widow, married George Smith in 1855.

I can’t find any more records for Henry and Charlotte Turmeau. Can you help please?

Posset has changed a lot in recent years, still a good place to live though. Since moving to an apartment on the Marina I've been researching the history of the docks and town and collecting old photos - all put together in a .pdf file; you're welcome to a copy.
Thanks to all for your work on the photo.

Hi KG, I'm the original poster. I live in Portishead and collect old photos of the town. Tomorrow I was intending to post the restored photo, along with my photo of how the wall looks now on the Portishead Past Facebook page - 'past & present'.
Regards, Jeff
