Charles Jennings

Sabina would have been 17yrs old when Charles enlisted - would he have been required to show her on his record if she was non-dependant?  I don't know what the rules were for that type of info

[CaroleW]

Charles military papers do not show daughter Violet Sabina born 1898. Violet marries 1927. Charles and Lena do not show up in 1911 and I cannot find Violet in 1911.

Where does Violet come from?  Birth registered qtr 3 1898 just as Sabina and GRO mmn search confirms mmn Stephens

Marriage register(1927) shows Violet S Jennings. Electoral records show violet savina and savina violet Natabus. Death record(1970) shows Sabina Natabus born 2 Jul 1898. I am assuming this is Charles daughter. Could not find another Sabina Violet/Violet Sabina born 1898

[CaroleW]

Her birth was only registered as Sabina - no Violet shown.  Have you checked mmn for the birth you found for Violet Sabina

[EdCan]

There is no birth record for a Violet Savina/Savina Violet Jennings or any other family name. It only shows up in the Electoral Records which I assume is the name she was known as.

On Arthur Albert Natabus' probate record (died 15 Nov 1959)  his widow is named as Sabina Violet Natabus.

It could very well be that Sabina/Savina liked the name Violet and therefore added it to hers. I have come across many occasions where someone has either added or changed their names from those on their birth cert. They are perfectly entitled to alter their name providing there is no illegal reason into why they are doing so.

Because Savina/Sabina did not show on Charles military records I was worried that there were two different Charles Jennings but she shows up in 1911 with the new family. RG14/6935 56

I notice he gives his age as 33 so JJen's family looks right.
A marriage cert. will probably confirm it.
