Looking for parents of Charles Shervill
« on: Thursday 02 March 23 10:42 GMT (UK) »
Charles Shervill (occupation Baker) appears on the 1841 census in Southampton St Mary. He is stated as age 25.
With him are (assumed) wife Ann age 30 and (assumed) children Ellen 7, John 4, Charles 2 and  Edward 3 weeks. All except Ann are born in county (Hants).

Piece   417, Book   6, Folio: 45, Page: 42.
I can't find birth registration of the two younger children to confirm mother's maiden name. but there is a baptism in Christchurch of an Ellen Woodman Shurvill in 1834 which would fit, so I believe  Ann was formerly Ann Woodman. I can't find the family  on the 1851 census, but Ellen Woodman Shervill married in London in 1853. Marriage record doesn't state that Charles was deceased by then, but he could have been.
Can anyone find a baptism probably between 1812 and 1816 somewhere in Hampshire, please

Just found what I think must be Ann's remarriage on 15 Aug 1843 in London to Duncan McDonald, so unless bigamous, Charles must have died between census day 1841 and 1843

I think this is the death Q2 1843 Southampton as Charles Shirvell age 28. Same quarter Edward age 1. If the right one, Ann was quick to remarry!
So Charles baptism should be abt 1815.

Thank you everyone, I hadn't been able to find the two children's birth reg, but I only looked for Shervill not Shervell. Confirms mmn as Woodman

I can't find a likely marriage for Charles and Ann Woodman, but there is one in 1832 for a Charles Shervill and Ann Baker, widow in Portsea. So is there an earlier marriage of an Ann Woodman to a Mr Baker, that would fit?
