London and Middlesex / Hoxton location help
« on: Saturday 04 September 21 15:04 BST (UK)  »
Hi Everyone,
I wondered if a residence location, ‘Willshires’, Hoxton (1830) means anything to you? I’d be grateful for a steer.
Thanks
MM

Thank you so much! That’s really illuminating.
I wonder what quality of abode it would have been…

Thank you. This is really interesting. I’d a feeling it might be that side of St Pauls, looking at the parish boundaries.

Hi Rosie, yes, it was in the 1841 census. His name was Richard Simpson. I believe he came from Ireland. He variously states he’s an Accountant and a Solicitor. He died of typhoid in 1845 (sadly). Three of four daughters successively married my 3rd Gt Grandfather (when that was illegal), Arthur Bentley. They are buried in Highgate Cemetery.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for help in locating the above address (realising, of course, that it’s almost certainly no longer extant). My fourth great grandfather lived here, while plying his trade as an Accountant. I’d be very grateful for any further information, or directions as to where I might find an answer.
Many thanks

Thank you, Shaun.
I did get someone to research for me at the Rifle Brigade museum, but I didn’t get THAT information!
They did reckon that he would’ve rejoined his regiment (although I think they were in Gibraltar when he was released, so they weren’t too sure what would’ve happened).
I don’t have military record access, which makes things harder... as does the fact that he married in Ireland (although his marriage registration DID survive - Church of Ireland).
I really appreciate your assistance
Margaret
