Somerset Lookup Requests / Re: GROVES Lookup please!!
« on: Tuesday 17 August 10 08:54 BST (UK)  »
That's definitely correct! I was told that she was called Edith but the 1911 census said florence so I thought my source got confused as her mum is called Edith too.

Reginald Groves was born Reginald Patches/Patch...he was illegitimate and went on to live with and become a Groves..

Florence Kingsbury was born in Chilton Polden, Somerset according to the 1911 census...I'm thinking that perhaps Reginald didn't come from the Somerset area...I will order the marriage certificate. Thanks all :)

I've found him also...I think that's definitely him as they married in Wells so Mendips would be the right area. I can't find any parent details though..

Looking for a Reginald E Groves who married Florence Kingsbury in Wells in June 1927. I can't find him on the 1911 census or any other details about him :( could someone please see if they can find him so I can get details of his parents?

Thanks Heywood,

Yes she registered the birth. And stated her address as the topic title. Am I allowed to put up a picture of the birth certificate?

Lewis Russell King is my g grandfather. He is who's certificate I've got. And he still has 3 daughters alive, one of whom I went to see yesterday. I have his old school books and attendance records for the school he went to in Uplyme. And a copy of a postcard he wrote to his wife before they married.
James Russell King is the assumed father of Emily due to the name that has been entered on the certificate and then crossed out. Again, this may be completely wrong.

Should I just lay this one to rest and accept i'm going to get no-where? The only issue with that is that I have a non defeatable attitude! I'll just be more determined to find out more!

Valda,

The birth certificate says the mother is Emily King. I'm afraid I think Emily Lena King is a different person.
I can't find James Russell King's marriage certificate as I don't know who he was married to. The closest match I can find is a James King, married to an Emily Cottrell with a daughter called Emily also who would be about the right age. And the records are all based in the Kensington area of London which would be about right. But i've no way of confirming this.

I had a thought, could Emily have been residing at 62 S.Molton St illegally? ie squatting? I want to identify this woman so I can see when she died and if she married/had more children before she died!!

I live in Somerset, and Uplyme/Lyme Regis is my local beach so I know the area well.

There's so many Emily King's! The closest I have found is a 1901 census with Emily described as a shop assistant (on the birth cert it says she is a dressmaker) her father is named James and her mother named Emily. But I believe her father is called James Russell King as that is whats on the birth certificate then crossed out as the child was indeed definitely illegitimate.

I've found Lewis Russell King boarding with a family in Uplyme, Devon in 1911. And I know he ran a cycle depot shop there, and I know it's definitely him as I have his school books with his address written on them.
