Am really struggling with my maternal grandfather's side of the family and wonder if anyone can help me shed some light on it.
My Grandfather is Harvey Dye (1905 - 1961 born/died Chesterfield), Derbyshire married twice (1) Harriett Susannah Bonner (1901-1936 born Kettering died Chesterfield) (2) Edith Scott (1904-1980 born Middlesborough, Yorkshire died Staveley, Chesterfield) , between the two women they had 15 children.
Now here is where the fun starts Harvey's Father was (1) Thomas Dye was killed at the age of 29 and his mother Susannah Newton (1877-1940 born Mossborough died Chesterfield), married what appears to be a further twice after Thomas' death (2) Joseph Boot (born 1876 Netherton, Worcestershire) on the 1911 census I had them living at 31 Cross St Whinney Hill Dolton Brook Nr Rotherham. Taken from the 1911 census Joseph Boot, 35, head, Coal Miner, married 5 years, 5 children (4 alive); Susannah Boot, 34, wife; Solomon Boot, 2, Joseph Dye, 8; Harvey Dye, 6.
Harvey and his brother Joseph had obviously been adopted by Joseph and now had a younger brother Solomon Boot (Born 1908 Yorkshire) although the 1911 census states there are 4 children living I cannot find the 4th child although it is possible it could be Lillian born 1907 a year before Solomon however her suranme is Round as are her two sisters Edith Agnes born 1909 and Sarah born 1911, all three girls were born in Chesterfield. Their father was Susannah's possible (3) husband Joseph Round (born 1876 Netherton, Worcestershire)
You can see now why I am struggling, are these two Joseph's the same man, or is it just conicidence they were born the same year in the same place. Is Lillian the missing 4th child or did Susannah marry for a 3rd time and the girls were her adoptive daughters, if so who is the missing child.
I have been struggling with this for the last twelve months so if anyone can shed any light on this I would be most grateful
