Hi Folks

I'm trying to find George Henry Stoneadge born Nov-1886? in the Winchester area, so he should be about 5 or 6 years old.

Thanks

Hi Tati

Thanks for that.  That's a good question.  I was told some time ago that George Stoneadge was the son of a gentleman farmer.  He then took a fancy to one of my ancestors Mary Jane West, a common country girl and George's parents disapproved of him from seeing such a lowly girl.  George then decided to get around this situation by migrating to Canada and marrying her there in 1907 and they lived happily ever after.  A publican doesn't quite sound like a 'gentleman' to me but the story might be a work of non-fiction.  Stoneadge is an unusual name so I suppose it must be him.

Thanks for your help.

I can't see any other match ... By 1901 father Henry is a Grocer & Baker.

Hi Tati

Out of interest did you find a listing for the son George Henry on the 1901 census?  I couldn't find him by doing a name search.

Hi Tati

Thanks very much.  I'm still puzzled though.
Where did you search and what name did you use to locate these records?

I can't get  find anyone at http://www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ when I use the name search of Stoneadge.

Well, this is not the resource I use but have tried a few things on there and giving in a Bessie (no surname) age 44, female, born Petersfield and keyword Itchen Abbas, it comes up with Bessie Stone(a square)dg(a square)

Thanks for that insight.  Weird eh?

I'll notify the the site I mentioned above to amend their records.

Thank you for the help you have provided.
