Parents of George William Boother, b 8Mar1851

[genebrarian]

Looking for evidence of my ancestor's parents please.

1851 Census Has them listed at Kings Row as George Boother b app 1824 and Elleanor b app 1827
1861 Census has them listed at Francis Street - mother Eleanor

I've not been able to find their births, marriages or deaths - and I can't find them on the 1871 or 1881 censuses. I can find George William ok though (he'd joined the Navy by the looks of things).

I think Eleanor's maiden name was Fell. Not sure.

Thanks heaps!

Ok I have found a Fell connection, but not maybe the one you want!

Have a look at this family in 1841 Census

George Boothe 45 occ Paper Stainer
Martha             25
GEORGE           15
Georgianna       15
Frederic            13
Isabella              7
Mary                  2

Residing at Castle Lane St Margaret Westminster

Census Ref HO107/738 10/31 /15

Then this marriage:'

Georgena Boother to Henry Fell
Bride aged 25
Groom aged 26
at St James Shoreditch 15th October 1854

Brides father George Boother occ Paper Stainer
Grooms father William Fell occ Tailor

Witnesses Thomas Fell and Isabella Boother

So it looks like George's parents are a George and Martha (Possibly)!!

Thanks.

George Boother and George William Boother were both Paper Stainers. So this may well be George Snrs parents.

Looks hopeful. Wish I could find parish records for it though!

I have a possible marriage 1844 between a George Booker and Eleanor Fell in Shoreditch. Possibly a transcription error.

Got Eleanor's maiden name through another family history researcher, who claimed that her maiden name was Fell.

Trying to prove, disprove. Get further back etc . . .
