Elizabeth Parkin b1816 Leeds
« on: Tuesday 07 August 18 15:38 BST (UK) »
Hello,
Could you help me locate the whereabouts of Elizabeth?
She was born in Leeds 1816 to James Parkin & Mary Higham, she has 1 sister Rebecca  b1818 & 1 brother John b 1821.
She is on the 1841 census living with her parents, her brother John 1821, John's wife  Elizabeth b 1826, Charles Rose (mystery) b 1838 Edwin & Charles Parkin b 1840/1841 (these are mostly likely to be Elizabeths illegitimate children) & i can't quite make out the last child.. Alfred Holt??  (yet another mystery)
After this she vanishes, can't find birth registers for Edwin & Charles either!  ???

Here is the household in 1851

Pearl Row, Leeds
Mary Parkin 57 widow lodging house keeper bn Lancaster
John 30 widower bricklayers lab bn leeds
Edwin Parkin 11 grandson bn Leeds
Charles Parkin 9 grandson bn Leeds
Emma Parkin 6 granddtr bn Leeds
Alfred Parkin 2 grandson bn Leeds
couple of lodgers

Are the children not thise of John and his late wife?

modifed to add - answering my own question - no, because in 1861 John has remarried, still living ni Pearl Row, has the children from Emma downwards there with him,but also Charles is there as Nephew!

Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Assuming that I've got the right birth registrations:

Emma - 1844 - Leeds - mmn = Hall
Alfred - 1848 - Leeds - mmn = Hall

Marriage:  Leeds - 1840 - John Parkin and Elizabeth Hall appear on the same page.  Marriage at St Peter, 25 December 1840:

John Parkin, fa, Cloth dresser of Woodhouse.  Father:  James, Labourer
Elizabeth Hall (x), fa, of Woodhouse.  Father:  William, Cloth Dresser
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

  Yes this is Elizabeth's brother, His wife later dies & he remarries.   All children of the family except Edwin & Charles (whom i think were Elizabeth Parkin(sister) were registered.
