Hi,
William Henry FOAY married (1) Amelia Elizabeth MANSELL (daughter of William and Amelia nee Snead) in 1892
They had 3 childlren that I am sure of-
Maude Elizabeth(remained spinster), Gladys Amelia(died young), and May Adelaide(married John Oliver Claudius Hill).
I am unsure about whether Amelia Ann (b 1893 d 1894) is one of their daughters.
Amelia Elizabeth died in 1907 and in  1909 William Henry married her sister Matilda.
They had 3 children-Ethel Matilda,  Hilda V  and  Doris R(she died as infant).

Does anyone have any information on  Ethel and Hilda?

Thanks and cheers

Hi
In the 1911 census Ebenezer and Esther Bodley were servants to a retired clergyman- Robert Jamblin. Ebenezer was a waiter/gardener and Esther was the cook.

IS there anyone who can give me information as to where it is? I have tried googling (not my strong point I may say) without success.

Was it a church? or simply a house ?

Would like to find out some work history for the Bodleys. Ebenezer (born 1860)died in 1949 and his death was registered in Surrey North. Have not traced Esther's(born 1868) death yet.


Many thanks...

Hi,
I am probably in the wrong board however I would like to know if electoral rolls for Ilford/Romford exist for the period from 1901(actual date unknown-but was before 1911) and end date of 1946?

In particular for : 10 Stanley Road, Ilford

I am looking for details on William Reginald Sangster Hill ( aka William Sangster or Reginald Hill/s or William Hills or any variation on this theme!!!!)

We understand that he not only lived with his wife Frances Harriet Rose Hannah aka Rose and children but had a friend' by whom he had children.

Nothing known about this other lady. Her children (and maybe herself)  went under the name/s of Hill/Hills/Sangster/Sankester/Sankster).

So I would firstly like to find William - who was a baker/pastry cook/ confectioner - the shop(on a main road- name unknown)  he "owned" or "worked in" burned down (date unknown).

Secondly he and FHRH (Rose) or she by herself or him with the other lady...

Oh dear. I do hope someone can understand what I have written!!
Many thanks..Cheers Vicki (New Zealand)

Hi,
Found an 18 year old relative Mabel was listed in 1911 census as a Mantle Maker.
Does anyone know what one is?

Her mother was a needle woman so I am wondering if there is a link in the work they were doing?

Would it be something done in a factory or in their home as piece workers?

Interested in any comments...and many thanks...Vicki (New Zealand)

I wonder if anyone can advise how I go about finding in the 1911 census my great grandparents and their children.

In 1901 they were in Alexandra Road, West Ham. But they moved at some stage to Ilford- to 10 Stanley Road.  I know for sure that 10 Stanley Road was their home by Feb 1917 when Alice and Maud married.

 
William Reginald Hill(b c1866) Bayswater?,
wife Frances Harriet Rose Hannah )often known as Rose) b c1864 St Lukes

and their children
William Stanley Sangster Hill (aka Stanley), b 1890
Florence Maud (Maud Florence) Hill b 1891(?),
John Oliver Claudius Hill b 1894
Esther Victoria Hill b1892
Alice Patricia Hill  b c 1896
Ebenezer Attalicus Peabody (or Ebenezer Peabody Attalicus) Hill b c1892
 and
my grandfather Percy (who sometimes used Percy Reginald) Hill b 1901.


Their eldest daughter who married in 1908 (living at Grange Road,Ilford) was by the 1911 census living in Ilford.

I have tried all variants and combinations of all of their names, some of their names,and been inventive as well!!!! Have looked Surrey, Middlesex, Essex, London and no joy.


I do not have an exact year of birth for Ebenezer as I have been unable to find his birth entry.

Any advice would be welcomed..many thanks in advance..Vicki  (New Zealand)
