Hertfordshire / Re: William BATCHELOR and Charlotte BELCHER
« on: Saturday 23 March 24 00:21 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
From the 1851 census your William Hastings in Hemel Hempstead with his mother Mary Batchelor was born in Rickmansworth. There is a non conformist Protestant birth registration on Ancestry dated 4 Feb 1833 for a William Hastings, son of Richard Hastings of Batchworth (Rickmansworth) Hertfordshire a Paper Maker & Mary his wife, the daughter of Joseph Tolley, was born at the house of the said Richard Hastings in Batchworth on the 11th May 1826. It is signed by Mary Batchelor as the named parent. Richard died in Oct 1826 in Rickmansworth. There is a William Hastings born Rickmansworth living in St Pancras with a wife Fanny in 1871, could he be your William.  ???

Hi

Unfortunately that doesn't look to be the death for your Thomas. As his birth was registered as Tom Brown Sept QTR 1873 Wantage the birth date for the chap in the 1939 register of 12th July 1873 is looking like a good fit.!!!

If you have access to Find My Past Thomas's British Army service record is on there. He was born West Ilsley Berkshire & it is quite informative. His three children were Florence, Annie Bessie & Thomas Henry William & he was discharged on the 17th  Nov 1908 at Netley. There is a Thomas Brown born July 1873 on the 1939 register unfortunately in Broadmoor Asylum Easthampstead Berkshire who could be your Thomas.
Hope this helps a little.

A little more info if it helps.
James Watts married Martha Chapman 3rd Jan 1807 in Rickmansworth.

Children baptized to them as well as your Henry at St Mary were,
George 1808 died 1814
Susannah 1810
Harriet 1814
George1816
William1818

James Watts born c1779 died 1820 & was buried 6th Feb 1820 St Mary the  Virgin Rickmansworth.
Martha Watts born c1781 died 1821 & was buried 5th Aug 1821 St Mary the Virgin Rickmansworth.

There was a James "Wats" baptized 24th Dec 1780 at St Mary the Virgin HAREFIELD Middx to a James & Jane. As Harefield is only 3/4 miles from Rickmansworth & Little Hadham about 40 mile I wonder if this one could be a good candidate for your Henry's father.

Hi
Yes I received the same email yesterday, my sub was renewed in April but I also hadn't upgraded. Checked my account details & they are as I expected them to be. Very strange.!

Hi again & thanks for coming back. Our Charles certainly had quite an abundance of children. ;). I have often thought about my Grandmother loosing her half brother Jesse in WW1 & then my Uncle Jesse in WW2 although sadly she had died before Jesse's death was confirmed. If you are interested I can give you details on where & when Jesse was killed in the Far East.

Look forward to hearing from you.

I do have quite a lot of info on the Dwight's & Blowfield's, Charles was the coachman for a Dr John Richard Henry Sutton in Whitchurch & I am more than happy to share what I have with you if I can help. If you do a couple more posts I can PM you with my mail addy particularly as you mention Hilda's sons. !!

London and Middlesex / Re: Thames Street, Tower Hill - Giddings?
« on: Thursday 24 November 22 11:07 GMT (UK)  »
Great find with the baptsims Kay, there does seem to be only the one marriage for a Charles & Margaret with the correct surnames in the right time frame.
Would be nice to find William after 1866 or even Margaret after 1861. ???
