Tooth family Stoke on Trent

[crackpot]

I am helping a friend look for info on Tooth family , all from  around the Stoke on Trent area.  My friend's mother was Maud born 1911. She married first Clifford Roberts, and then Frederick Charles Christmas in 1940. Maud came from a family of 13---names including Elsie, Alcie, Mary Patricia, Harriet. Seamus, Anne. Crystal. Thomas William, Abraham, John , James, Ada. All the men were said to have worked in the Hanley Deep Pit,and Maud worked in the Potteries. Probably her sisters did too. I have not yet found the family on census--still looking. I have also been going through the freebmd  website and have not located all of them--not sure if I have the right ones sometimes. One thing I found was Maud's birth with a mother's maiden name of Boughey. And that was the only birth I found with that name. My friend  thought her grandfathers name was Joseph but not positive on that. I think it may not be as none of the children have the name---if they followed traditional naming patterns. any help appreciated.
thank you

Hello,

Free BMD has a possible marriage between George Groves Tooth and Mary Elizabeth Boughey Stoke upon Trent 6b pg 323

1911 index indicates that a George Grove  Tooth aged 31 yrs is in census together with Mary Elizabeth.
You might want to check on that.

PS births only show Maud and Minnie with mother Boughey

Marriages September qtr 1907 

Mary Elizabeth Boughey    Stoke on Trent  6b 323   
George Groves Tooth     

Have you searched freebmd for births using surname Tooth and mothers maiden name Boughey - see Minnie b 1916

This is the only other birth apart from Maud's so I wonder if there was a "Tooth" remarriage and the other children are from the second marriage?

You need to be sure of the information before we can go back a bit in census - do you have years of birth for the children you name?

good luck

Maud Tooth's marriages are a little close together

Marriage reg
Sept qtr 1938
Stoke (assume this is Stoke newington)
Greater London
6b 658
Maud Tooth
Clifford Roberts


Marriage reg (not 1940 as you posted)
Dec qtr 1941
Pancras
Frederick C Christmas
maude Roberts

I find it a little strange both marriages took place in London area
The first marriage was registered in Stoke district Greater London (not Stoke on Trent Staffs!)

How certain is your friend of the information given?

No Clifford Roberts death in the London area in that short time span

One aged 25 died in Stoke on Trent in 1940

I wondered if maybe Clifford had died in WW2??

I can't find a  death reg for Frederick Charles Christmas in Staffs -and no death reg for maud Christmas b 1911
