London and Middlesex / Re: Maude VAN-OKKER
« on: Wednesday 23 June 21 02:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi all.

I have just come across this post and as I have Koopman (Charles) Okker in my tree I thought I'd add somethings as I know them. I have Koopman married in Amsterdam to Marianna Van Diepenhijm Oct 6 1858. This is probably where the Van comes into play with his wife's name? (Marianna van Diepenhijm = Maud van Okker)? Also he married a second time to Emily Georgeine Okker nee Dennes July 25 1869 in Wandsworth, London. She was born Ventnor, Isle of Wight, Feb 17 1848. I also have Koopman as a Diamond Cutter and dying in the County Lunatic Asylum Wandsworth (Springfield Hospital) March 22 1885. This is still to be confirmed, I have contacted The Surrey Historical Society for help with this and am awaiting their response. Any comments/corrections would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. p.s. am I allowed to add source citations to posts for confirmation purposes?

Hi. According to my family history, my grandfather was the president of the LVA around 1915 -1920 era. Does anyone know how I can verify or not this, please? His name was William Osborn, and he was the licensee of the 7 Stars Pub/Webb's Wines, 111-113 High Street, Whitechapel, London. Thanks.

Hi JM thanks for trying anyway. I think I will contact the Hospital and see if they may have records back to then. A long shot but hey, who knows, don't ask, don't get. Eh?

Hi again, thanks for your continued interest, I wish I could help you; I do have a ladder but I think I might be too far away? I have sent off an email to the Church so will await a reply, I know it will take a while, I am a patient man.

That link to 'Claim a Convict' is me. I have claimed Nathaniel and I put up the info as I find it. Just trying to find the last 2 pieces of the story. Cause of death and actual burial place, if possible.

Hi, thanks for your quick response. No the records I have are from the Queensland State Library. It doesn't say 'civil' just the heading words "Burials in the Parish of St James in the County of Cumberland" ceremony was performed by a priest named William Horatio Walsh.
