HARE family - Brick Wall!!
« on: Friday 12 November 04 11:16 GMT (UK) »
I'm at a real blank for my maternal Grandfather ARTHUR HARE.
I've got him on the 1901 Census in London (Westminster) with birthdate of 1879 - but frustratingly he was a Boarder for the census. Place of Birth is given as Pimlico, London; His occupation is "Woollens Trade" throughout his life as far as I can see.  I've got his father WILLIAM HARE as an "accountant" from Arthur's 1902 Marriage cert - but no date or place of birth, or mother.
And that's it!
I can't find a match for either of them in any other online census or BMD - but I of course, I have so little data to recognize matches.
Strangely - I also can't find any of his three sons - Frederick, Sidney and Lester in BMD after 1902 - but I have got his daughter (my mother) DORIS ANITA HARE dob 1915, and Arthur was still alive in 1937 for her marriage.
HELP !?

Hello geopet,

Welcome to RootsChat.

Could this be the family in 1881?

11 Graham St
St Luke, London, Middlesex, England
FHL Film 1341078     RG11/0360/116 p3

Wm. HAIR M 30 M   
Head    Occ:   Clerk
Louisa HAIR M 26 F   
Wife
Albert HAIR U 2 M London St Lukes, London, Middlesex
Son
Artr. HAIR U 5m   M London St Lukes, London, Middlesex, England
Son
Julia WALFORD U   48F   Totnes, Devon, England
Occ:   Upholsteress

It doesn't match with the birthplace of Arthur unfortunately, but its just a possibility.  Also it doesn't give his parents' birthplaces.

Very many thanks for your quick response.  I've got that entry (and many others similar) - but it is precisely the problem that I don't have enough info to match up these entries. (bites carpet!!)
