Lois Mary Walker born 1897 Hampton Court
« on: Sunday 26 January 14 06:14 GMT (UK) »
I have a Lois Mary Walker, born Hampton Court 1897. She evidently only used the name Mary in later life.
In 1911 she was living with her adoptive parents Frederick and Emily Green in Oundle, Northamptonshire, but she was not with them in 1901.

Can anyone spot her in 1901? I've tried lots of variations on her name with no luck.  I have ordered her birth cert, but am too impatient to wait for it to arrive ::)

Hi Ray,
'My' Lois Mary shows in the 1911 census, in Oundle, born Hampton Court. I plumped for the Kingston birth as it's right by Hampton Court, and is a Lois Mary rather than just 'M'.
The birth cert will hopefully help as it should eliminate her if she is the wrong one, but I am mystified that there is no sign of her in 1901. I've searched both the usual websites.

In 1901 listed a Loes Walker 3 b Hampton Court    Living at Shorncliffe Camp, Cheriton & Sandgate
RG13 piece 851 folio 114 page 35

Trying to work out if other Walker children listed with her were related as all the children are listed  by age with no apparent parents

Kay

Edit - Other Walkers are Alexandria 5 born Ireland and Neeve May 3 born India

Brilliant, thanks Kay. Superbly transcribed on my site as Ives Walker.
It was an army camp, so the soldiers seem to be listed first, than the wives, then the children. When I first saw the list of wife, wife, wife, my first thought was some kind of religious cult! :o

Yup

Well done Kay.

"Ives" was why I couldn't find her as well !    :-(

Woops, we overlapped there.
Thank you again, I think you have found my answer.
I think I'll take the plunge and order the death cert - it will be interesting to see her cause of death.

My friend who is the great granddaughter of the younger Lois Mary comes from a family with a serious genetic heart condition that causes death in childbirth. She lost her own mother the same way. :(
