Esther GOODE
« on: Sunday 22 July 12 14:05 BST (UK) »
Basil GOODE moved to St Helier in 1835. He appears on the 1841 Census aged 85, living at Don Crescent, St Helier with daughter Mary 40 and one Esther GOODE aged 25 - relationship unknown. Basil died in 1846 and Mary moved back to the Midlands.
Esther is an unknown quantity - did she marry or die in St Helier? I would appreciate some help here.

Hi

There is a will at the Archive the details of which say:

Will and Testament of Mary Ann Goode of Allesley, Warwickshire, now of Jersey. Dated 25/05/1846. Bequeaths to the Dorcas Society, £10, to the Benevolent Society, £5, to the Clare Street Infant School, £5, and to Richard Goode a 1/4 of a house in Cross Cheaping, Coventry. 14/07/1846 - 14/07/1846

Is this your Mary Goode?

Stewart

Yes, she is Basil's daughter. Esther seems too old to be Mary's daughter - unless she is illegitmate. No mention of Esther in Mary's Will though.
