Florence Louisa/Louise Bohee
« on: Saturday 27 February 21 01:10 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I'm just wondering if anyone can help shed light on the birth of a Florence Louisa BOHEE/BOHEY .  I cannot find a birth for her or her parents names. 
I have found her in 1891 aged 11yr living (listed as niece) with her Uncle Henry Richard BOHEE and his wife Helena and their son Henry Richard aged 5mths. She is supposedly born in Wandsworth.
I have her marrying a Henry Chambers in 1898. Father listed as John Bohee, deceased, but a John Bohee signs as a witness!!
 In 1911 I have her with Henry Chambers and their 4 children.
At some point after this she supposedly either lives with or marries  Walter William Burrows and has 2 daughters  (in 1921 & 1922)
To add to the confusion Walter William Burrows is first married to a Frances Annie Bohee b.1889 and has either 4 or 5 children with her. This is up to 1915.
Frances Annie's parents were John Bohee and Alice Winterman.  I am trying to discover how Florence Louisa fits into the Bohee family hence the request to help with her birth. I cant find her in the 1881 census when she would have been about 1yr old.
Frances Bohee's father John, has a Henry for a brother so Im guessing he is the Uncle mentioned in the 1891 census.
The problem being is that I cant find Florence in John & Alice's family.
Also John would have only been 14yr or younger when Florence was born so not likely her father!

I hope I have made myself clear. If not please ask.
Thanks
Jen

Hello Jen, I can't see any ad in your post, I think it depends what browser and operating system you use.  :)

No luck finding Florence (yet), but just to save others looking:
John BOHEE (as BOHEN on FreeBMD) and Alice WINTERMAN married Sep qtr 1885 Mile End (1c/898)

Their children:
D qtr 1886  Annie Elizabeth
D qtr 1887  Rosina Eleanor
M qtr 1889  Frances Annie
J qtr 1891  William Frank
M qtr 1894  Edith Alice
J qtr 1896  Alice Maud

will keep looking ...

Modified to add: meant to add that in the 1911 they say they have had 6 children.

Thank you for posting the above info. I see on the 1911 that 5 were still living so I have that correct. I also see that they had a nurse child with them aged 3yrs Dorothy Maud Davies. No mother's maiden name on the GRO in 1908.
John Bohee is the son of Jonathan Bohey/Bohee and Elizabeth Vince married 1857
Children
Ann Bohee (Vince). 1851-1851
William 1858-1915
Emily  1860-1864
Elizabeth. 1863- 1886
John 1866-1944
Henry Richard 1868-1938

Elizabeth Bohee née Vince dies in 1890 and Jonathan remarries in 1901 to Susan Anna Maria Corley/Couley. Susan was the widow of Thomas Paine Dumper.
Jonathan dies in 1907

William was having children in Wandsworth with his wife Mary Ann King who he married in 1879, but cannot see Florence.

2 born before the 1881 both died and One born end of 1881 died 1885.

Is she illegitimate daughter of one of the sisters, (Elizabeth) with made up father?

This is my thinking too. This is a note I made when researching.

On the 1881 Census I have Jonathon (listed as married) living with his sons John and Henry but I can't find his wife Elizabeth or daughter Elizabeth in 1881.  Could Elizabeth jnr  be the mother of Florence Louisa?? 
Elizabeth jnr marries in 1881 to William Buckerfield and has 2 children Alice 1883 and Elizabeth Ann 1886.  Elizabeth jnr the mother dies in 1886. 
Could explain why Florence Louisa is with her Uncle and Aunt in 1891  Maybe registered under her mother's maiden name??

I will try tracking this one and see if I can find a mother's Christian name and a marriage of a Bohee to a Ralph.

Thank you for this find.
