my aunt has held me up for nearly a month promising nans
birth cert, and still no show, so will have to order that myself..
thanks gill

Would you like a challenge?? My gt grandmother is a non-person before her marriage.

My gt grandparents Walter Jarrett and Charlotte Maria Doncaster were married in December 1902 Marylebone. Charlotte's father was down as William Henry Doncaster decd - one of the witnesses was a W H Doncaster - possibly brother?

Walter Jarrett born 1876 Marylebone - can't find him on the 1901 census.

Charlotte Maria Doncaster born 1879 Kensington according to the 1911 census. Can't find any birth details for her or any census return that links her to any parents. The other two Charlotte Doncasters born around that time in Hackney and Lambeth have the wrong fathers.

I have found a Charlotte Doncaster in a nursing home in Herne Bay in 1881, a Maria Doncaster in an orphanage in 1891 and can't find either a Maria or Charlotte in 1901.

Charlotte would have been about 5/6 months pregnant with their first child at the time of the 1901 census. She lied in the 1911 census and said she's been married 13 years when she had only been married 9.

There is a birth registration for a Maria Doncaster in 1879 in Kensington - birth certificate has parents as Henry Doncaster and Susan Savill - address 16 Hayden Mews, Kensington. These Doncasters in 1881 have no Maria with them but they do have a son called William (possibly the witness at the marriage).

If you have time could you see if you could find them on the 1901 census.
There is a Walter Jarrett with a wife Elizabeth in 1901 but he's from Nottingham - so don't think he's mine.

Charlotte's doing my head in - if she weren't already dead I'd throttle her!

Thanks

Thank you VERY much for searching through the census for my Hammond Pallett.

Could you possibly give me the details of Thomas and Elizabeth & Margaret from the 1861 census please [I only have their names - no other details ]? I don't suppose there is any record of them on the 1841 and later census ?

Can't find him in 1891


Kirsty

Hi Kirsty

I found one of my families on the 1881 census living in Essendon Herts:
Hammond Charles PALLETT c1845 Essendon
Fanny PALLETT c1851 Essendon and children - all born Essendon:
Hammond 15
Elizabeth F 12
Ellen 9
Wilmer Robert 8
Thos John
James Edmund 5
George 2

could you see if you can find them on the 1871, 1891, 1901 census please?

If its not to much to ask could you look to see you can find Hammond Pallett [c1868] who married Ada Merry [b1873 Beckley Oxon] - I haven't found a marriage for them - I know they had a son called Hammond born 1894 - so not sure if they appear on the 1891 but should be on the 1901 Census.

Kind regards

Angie

Barbara,

I will have another go tomorrow

Kirsty

Hi Kirsty,
I got Harriet Barry's name from John Turner's death certificate. He died at Harden NSW Australia in 1945. On the certificate I got his Father's name as George Turner, bricklayer and mother Harriet Barrry. On the death certificate it had John born Manchester but on his marriage certificate when he remarried my grandmother his birth place was Yorkshire.

His daughter Catherine who he left behind in England was brought up by Anne's parents, I don't know surnames but their was a clue on the England and Wales BMD, there is a Catherine Turner born in 1906 and an Annie Turner death in 1906. I don't know how to link these up.

Than I tried to find a marriage between John Turner and an Annie in 1905-1906 but drew a blank?

Regards Barbara

Kirsty brilliant, yes thats them,,so pleased Ellen ended up
living with daughter Annie, she had such a terrible time bless her,

Thankyou very,very,muchly, take care,

gill xx
