I know that her husband lived on Frederick Rd, Tidal Basin, which I think is in West Ham. I'm unsure what year though. I haven't found any link to her living their though..

I have just looked on the 1911 and can't find either Sarah Alice Mileson or her daughter under either names.

Was Frederick a Fishmonger? and do you know what year he was born and where. His father and his occpation

All I know about Frederick was he was from Ireland.. or at least both of his parents were from Ireland and they came to England.
I have no offical date or birth or anything. However I have wrote down 1868 as a possible year of birth, but I can't remember where I got that from..

This is defiently going somewhere!
I have the address down as 28 Sophia rd, so it's very possible after she had the 3 sisters they moved a few doors down.

One thing I don't quite get, is Honioa and Walter? They've never been mentioned before.. my great uncle is still alive and he knew this family and he only knew of christina, sarah and May. My nan told me stuff as well and there was never a honioa and walter to our knowledge.

Thanks Mel..
But I have already learnt to look on FMP 1911 only when I think I have found them on 1911 official site as FMP are C....,I mean rubbish with their search facility.

Honoria is now the big mystery,only birth is in west derby to suit under Farley and its not her as I have followed that one, and her parents on 1911 and 1901 are James and Ellen.

Really strange..
everyone living + my nan who died the other year said there were just 3 kids born from Frederick and Sarah mileson. and Sarah & frederick on the index got married in 1925.. everyone just assumed that all the kids were born out of wedlock which made sence from the marriage year.

but now.. Sarah and frederick being married from the start and having 5 kids?! really strange stuff that just doesn't add up. Maybe something to do with this was the "family disgrace" that may winifred would never speak of.

Feodora.. now somthing about the Dora part rings a bell back from when my nan told me about the family..


Tidal Basin in west ham apparently was hit by a bomb during the war, perhaps the 1925 registation of Frederick and Sarahs marriage was a reregistation after their there marriage certificate got destoyed? Maybe these other kids besides May, christina and Sarah had somthing to do with the disgrace, maybe they were kids from a previous marriage or from adultry?

When you look at the 1901 census it could read Fiodora.

They could have just said they were man and wife for the census and been living together for years. After all who would know in those times unless they had to show their marriage lines.It is not unusual in a lot of families I have searched for other people. Don't forget the childrens births are under Mileson.

Talie

Talie Report 11 Oct 2009 17:55

That's a good point, I did come across that once before. But didn't the 1911 census say they were married for 17 years? That would of made the elder children born in wedlock and born with the name Farey/ farcy rather than mileson?

Mel Fairy Godmother

Mel Fairy Godmother Report 11 Oct 2009 18:01

That could have been a lie to cover the fact they were not married. Some couples only married when the children wanted to get married.

Have you got the transcription for the 1911 census?

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 11 Oct 2009 18:02

Just because they SAY they have been married 17 yrs on 1911 does not mean its true.
What else would they have put down back then

Been living in sin for 17 yrs???

Then been villified by the neighbours if it leaked out.
Not on your Nellie would they admit to not being married.

The other thing you often see with unmarried folk on census with kids is that the MAN describes his live in lover as a HOUSEKEEPER!

Talie

Talie Report 11 Oct 2009 18:11

LOL!
Come to think of it actually.. one of my other ancestors on another side did end up marrying their servant.. I guess anything could happen!

I'm starting to think these other kids now were the big family secret.. is there any sort of baptism for them or anything that could give somthing away?
