Hi all. Does anyone know how much approx it would cost for a genealogist to look into Joseph? I can’t leave that part of my family blank. Thank you.

Does it pan out that that Joseph is the correct one

Sorry, it seems he is not the one.
It may even be that the team has now eliminated nearly all possible Joseph Parkes? :-\

So it seems I’m back to where I started from☹️, though I do now have WHEN they entered Fremantle WA.

Thank you to all for your efforts.

1911 birth cert has nothing about ‘previous issue’ on it.
Birth certs I got from BDM NSW
This cert is hand written & states it’s a copy of original.

Marriage cert from BDM WA.
It is a typed up newer version.

Would be great if we could add pics on this platform  🙄

This might be Joseph Parkes on the GRO with an unusual name spelling:
Joseph Ernest "PAERKES", mother's maiden name Sanders, birth registered December 1873 quarter Pontypridd  Volume 11A  Page 335

Does it pan out that that Joseph is the correct one…or even a big possibility at this stage?
If so…a huge thank you ☺️

Mary(née Parsonage) married James Claridge in Daventry Essex November 1864.
Thats the only info about him on the Parsonage family tree.

The lady who did the Parsonage tree said she couldn’t find May(18) after the 1901 UK census. She was in Aston Birmingham with Mary(59)

I have Mary on a 1991 census as a licensed victualler. (103 new John street beer house Aston Warks) Which she took over after her brother Thomas Parsonage died November 1890 & his wife Julia died august 1889. Mary took on her niece Florence.
The other kids Ernest went with Harry Claridge (publican) and Victoria went with Henry J Claridge(innkeeper). Im seeing the trend for hotel owning. 2 other boys James & Samuel went to Cottage Homes Coleshill Birmingham.

That’s why I’m doing what I’m doing. My entire focus has been on the elusive Joseph.

But on my mum’s Clifton side…those rumours turned out true. By My 4x great grandmother, Elinor Bell, who married a Clifton, we are ancestors of king edward 1st. Kate Middleton is also an ancestor of king Edward 1st. That huge tree was done when snail mail was big. Now it’s all online to just look up.
And masses have heard about the USA presidents all being connected in some way and to royalty…thru that same Bell line…we are many lines tied to many USA presidents. It’s jaw dropping amazing what can be found.  🙂

Sue. Thank you for that.
I haven’t started looking at Joseph’s second marriage yet. My farmer dad, John Parkes, lives in north Western Australia…and there are 2 other John Parkes up there near him.
We’ve wondered if Joseph had kids with Dorothy in their 5 years of marriage…as she was only 28 when she married Joseph.

Thank you. I have the Parsonage side tree, but that only mentions May and Florence, no other kids. And after Mary Claridge (née Parsonages) brother Thomas(a beer house publican d:1890) & sister in law Julia(d:1889) die…she takes on her niece, Florence Parsonage & runs the business.
I’ve been suspect of the ‘eaves’ name as there’s no mention of them on the tree info I got back in 2012.
My cousin had the eaves on her tree but it doesn’t fit.
But you’ve given me info on the claridges. Ta.
