Im looking for a female relative and hit a brick wall. Her name is Marion Baker, nee Brooke. Born 24 April 1919, married John Baker in Birmingham, Warks, Dec 1937. Ive been unable to trace any marriages or deaths or passenger, and am at a loss where to look next.  The records office say that a woman can use any name she chooses and likewise can be registered in the deaths under assumed name. doesn't the correct birth date have to be put on cert? 

Any ideas?

Marriage available to view on Ancestry her father Joseph Brooke, deceased

Married 11 Dec 1937 Birmingham, St Thomas, Warwickshire, Marion age 18

Birmingham, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1939

 I know they emigrated on the SS Niagara on 13 July 1847. I have 1850, 1855, 1860 and 1880 censuses for Peter and Martha. Martha died in March 1901 and is buried in Catskill, Greene County. I have yet to discover a death and burial for

I suspect John Stonyer died between 1860 and 1880 (I haven't yet found an 1870 US census for him or Elizabeth), but have yet to find a record of his death and burial. Elizabeth I have in 1880, but not after that, and again no death or burial. I will be looking further for these.

 I found Lettice's baptism record showing she was born on 13 January 1836 to William Lloyd and Anne Lewis in Llangendeirne.


On her baptism father William occupation farmer

I can’t find a marriage to  David Harris  ??? Nor can I find the family on 1861 census - Perhaps they didn’t marry ?

Is this Lettice on 1851 census?

I am trying to trace the ancestry of David Harris, born on 1 May 1857 to William Harris and Lettice Lloyd in Llanddarog, according to his birth certificate.

 I cannot find a marriage record for William and Lettice.


What was his father’s occupation on birth certificate record and was there a street name in Llanddarog?

Quote from: 1982FordEscort on Monday 29 April 24 23:00 BST (UK)
He married Ann Howells on 17 November 1877 and had at least 3 children, Elizabeth around 1879, Mary around 1881, and William in 1883.

I've found him in the 1891 and 1901 censuses.

Is this the 1891 census

« on: Wednesday 24 April 24 10:22 BST (UK)  »
Thank you Maddy for listing all the details about Frederick George Barfoot Snr.  :) I was going to take a look through the thread this morning, so no previous marriage!

Quote from: maddys52 on Wednesday 24 April 24 04:18 BST (UK)

Frederick George BARFOOT was baptised 25 July 1851 at Great Canford, Dorset, his mother Elizabeth Mary BARFOOT, single woman. Birth registered Poole (8/67) no mmn.

Elizabeth Mary  BARFOOT married Frederick DUKE 4 Nov 1851 at Great Canford (she was underage and  illegitimate too). Interestingly in the 1851 census Elizabeth Mary and her mother Amelia BARFOOT are visitors with Frederick DUKE at Corfe Hills, Canford.

As noted back at the beginning of the thread, Frederick and Elizabeth Mary DUKE baptise 4 children with surname DUKE in 1859, plus Frederick George BARFOOT on the same again - so he seems to have been baptised twice.

Frederick George BARFOOT can be found in the 1861 and 1871 census with Frederick and Elizabeth Mary DUKE in Canford (as Frederick G DUKE  in 1861 and George DUKE in 1871).

So there is 7 years between 1871 census in Canford and 1878 in Melton Mowbray where his first son(s) were born and died.


kevkev

Do you have any further information on the Frederick George Barfoot who was born and died 1878?

If he was Frederick and Fanny's child she would have been about 18, so if there is a marriage to be found I guess a time frame would be between 1876 -1878 and probably in Leicestershire :-\

I've looked on FreeBMD but NO Barfoot/Bend marriage to be found  ??? - there is a Frederick marrying a Fanny in Jun 1877 Melton M but their surnames are Rawson/Larkin and they can be found together on the 1881 census

Ladyhawk it was extremely kind of you to obtain the death information on Ellen Barfoot. It's so appreciated


kevkev no repayment necessary wanted to satisfy my own curiosity to know if it was Ellen’s mother who was the informant at her death :)

Quote from: KEVKEV on Tuesday 23 April 24 18:17 BST (UK)

The death information on daughter Ellen clears things up a bit - I think, but I have wondered...since we found no marriage for Fanny to Frederick George Barfoot nor a marriage of Emma to Frederick George even though she was 'Barfoot' when marrying Lomas only that Emma is 'widow' in 1896 a year after Frederick George died

could both sisters have been involved with Frederick George?


I don’t think so as Fanny’s sister Emma Bend’s marriage, census records and death have all been found for her you need to look back through the thread for all the details.

Quote from: KEVKEV on Tuesday 23 April 24 18:17 BST (UK)

We have a death for Emma Lomas but no Fanny with any familiar surname.
 
I still can't understand what happened to Fanny since we know there was a Fanny.


Quote from: maddys52 on Tuesday 23 April 24 10:17 BST (UK)

 So it is Emma, and not Anna LOMAS.

Still a mystery, but if it were my family I'm pretty sure I'd accept that for some reason unknown, Fanny has decided to go by the name Emma.


I have to agree with Maddy’s comment above that Fanny decided to go by the name of Emma

As for finding no marriage for Frederick George Barfoot to Fanny Bend perhaps her father did not approve or give his consent, she was only 20 when son FGB born 1880 as mentioned on your thread they probably just lived together.

Have you traced Frederick George Barfoot back from 1881 census could he have been married and not free to marry Fanny  ???

Quote from: KEVKEV on Tuesday 23 April 24 18:17 BST (UK)

Emma's father was Samuel not Sansum so did Emma fabricate her fathers name on her marriage certificate to Lomas as she did apparently for her then current age? (which I found some women did if they were somewhat older than the man?).


Possibly

Emma edit should have written Fanny Bend father named Sansom occupation on her baptism record Labourer
and Agricultural labourer on some of her siblings baptisms

Emma Barfoot father named Samuel occupation on her marriage record farm labourer

so both name & occupation very similar
