COMPLETED WITH THANKS: Agnes Foggo and George Banks

[MonicaL]

That fits well Ev  I think she still shows with brother in 1891, living at Blue Bell Court in Duddingston.

Added: With mother and brother Robert for 1871 at Quarry Road in Duddingston:

Joan (Jo/Anne?) Foggs 73
Agnes Foggs 49, Laundress
Robert Foggs 37

Oh you clever people! That does look rather like her doesn't it?

Former domestic servant indeed - too busy getting pregnant to be working it seems. That's at least two daughters possibly another two going by the 1851 census.

Don't you just love that address - Widow Foggo's. Must investigate that one a bitt more.

I take it there's no way of identifying the elusive George Banks since they didn't marry?

[MonicaL]

There is a George Banks b. 1824 and born/living in Duddingston in 1851 with parents - a possibility but just speculation really....

Transcripton is not great on this one (you might want to double check on the original). I think this 1861 census entry is Agnes' mother with possibly some of Agnes' children at Easter Duddingston:

Joan Foggo 63
Jemima Good (Foggo) 23, daughter
Janes Lascels 14 granddaughter
Leah Gowans 7 granddaughter

John Smith Storie, Railway fireman,  died  6th March 1883 as a result of being hit by a train ( fractured spine and pelvis ) born 11 July 1842.        A small twig in part of the descendants of our family tree connections.      Best send a PM  to exchange information.

Hello Portybelle

John Storie the railwayman was my great grandfather - he married Ann Banks and had a daughter (Jemima Foggo Storie) who was my Dad's Mum. She was born in Dunbar, East Lothian in 1880.

I would be interested to hear about how you fit into the family tree.

I have a family tree on GenesReunited.co.uk that I could share with you.

Hello George

John and Annie's daughter Joan Storie was my great grandmother. I have lots of info and photos I'd be happy to share with you but I don't know if you can use the personal messaging yet. If you reply to this and then make one more post, we'll be able to exchange email addresses and more info.
