Anna Mary Curtis in 1911 please? Born Hannah Mary Hood at Selby 1850
« on: Tuesday 24 January 17 15:47 GMT (UK) »
Hello

I'm back with my family history, with Census; BMD Certificates and Parish Register copies, just over 200 years to my 4 X Gt. G. Rather than wait until the next trip into town to our Library, I wondered please, where Anna was in 1911?

As I've been stuck for 18 yrs, I'm going backward, to check more recent Wills of other family Hood lines, hoping for a mention of a possession, belonging to my unconfirmed 5 X Gt. G., or an unknown Hood family member.

On 4th August 1901 Anna Mary Curtis of 291 Camberwell Road, Surrey, became a widow of the late John Conway Curtis.

A. M. Curtis was Sister to my 2 X Gt. Grandfather George Hood born Selby and witnessed his Will, proved 1885.

She was born to John and Sarah Hood of Selby, as Hannah Mary Hood.

Her abode and any relatives in same house in 1911 please?

Thanks, Mark

Thanks Rosie

Didn't know it could be found on Family Search
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWBY-V91

Hulme, Chorlton is interesting, because:-

1) it gives me a clue as to which death is likely to be hers on Free BMD and narrow down a Probate check on gov.uk
2) in 1871 my 2 x Gt Grandfather George Hood, born Selby 1847, lived at Peel Causeway, Hulme.

Kind regards Mark

Hello William

Thank you so much for these replies.

A William Hood, aged 23 of Bowdon (then a Railway Clerk) had married Elizabeth Ann Foster, aged 23, at Manchester on 14 November 1872. James Foster and Anna Mary Hood, witnesses.
Marriage info very kindly from Rootschatter 'Goughy'

William Hood, studied at St Bees and became a Reverend in the area and then later at Barnby-in-the-Willows, dying at Newark Hospital and I've already ordered his Will and his widow's.

Isn't it nice, when bits of information on here, fit together like a glove, with what I already have!

William Hood and Anna Mary Hood are sideways relatives of my line, from John Hood of Selby, a Tanner and wife Sarah Hood (nee Richardson), but hoping they might mention an unknown Hood, or an item belonging to a Hood ancestor.

Thank you.

Regards Mark

Hello
...

On 4th August 1901 Anna Mary Curtis of 291 Camberwell Road, Surrey, became a widow of the late John Conway Curtis.
 ...

She was born to John and Sarah Hood of Selby, as Hannah Mary Hood.
 ...


This 291 Camberwell Road, seems to be a really odd address.

I notice that there was also a 291 Camberwell New Road, so I have left that address for the moment and concentrated on 291 Camberwell Rd, London.

Rather than finding a John Conway Curtis (per 1901 Probate) and an A. M. Curtis giving that as her address on 1885 Hood paperwork ...

I have:-

1880
John J. Lidle, 291 Camberwell Road, Baker, who looks to be a shareholder in the London and South Western Bank Limited.

1885
A. M. Curtis 291 Camberwell Road, London, witnessing a Hood document.

1890
STABLE Boy Wanted, ... Mr Grove, Dairy, 291 Camberwell Rd, London, S.E.

1891
MILK.-Strong, active YOUTH wanted, for milk round; state wages to live out.-Camberwell Green Dairy, 291 Camberwell-road, London, S.E.

1892
STRONG, active Girl, about 18, as General Servant; one who can do plain cooking; no children; comfortable home.-Dairy, 291, Camberwell rd.

1893 & 1894
Two Summonses against A. M. Grove, under the Sale of Food & ...

1901
John Conway Curtis of 291 Camberwell Road, Surrey, dying in the Constance Road workhouse East Dulwich, Surrey Probate to Anna Mary Curtis widow.

 --------

Are there two 291 Camberwell Road, London?

Wondering if this John J. Liddle, might be related to John Conway Curtis or nee Anna Mary Curtis?

Thank you

Mark

Gosh these are tricky people to find. I can even search by address and struggling to find the Curtis family.

John J Lidle was in Islington by 1891 census. He was also from Stuttgart Germany.
