Yes, that seems to be them, how can Faulkner become Halkier in translation!!??

It's weird 'cos I can find birth certs for children William, Rachel and Rosina, but not the others - Edward, Charles and Jessie. I also couldn't find evidence of 2 other rumoured children Florence and John, but you seem to have found a Florence that fits the bill - thank you so much FBG as you've found more info in the last hour than I've found in the last year! At least I can definately discount Aylesbury, and it seems they were in Stepney in 1901. It's funny 'cos the church that William Faulkner was baptised in in 1890 is the same church that I was a bridesmaid in in 1978!!!

I can not find Rosie 1896,Charles 1902 or Jessie 1904 baptisms at all ,,sorry..

FBG - Is there any chance you can find Jessie's baptism?

Then you can discount her..

Sorry, ALFRED FAULKNER and ELSIE JAME FAULKNER formerly STEVENS

The Aylesbury Jessie Faulkner's parents names were Alfred Faulkner and Elsie Stephens (sorry, I'm slow, I'm desperately looking for the cert amongst all my papers!)

Not missing,but that number house seems to be missed out from census.

What were her parents names please,the one in Aylesbury?

Aylesbury Jessie Faulkner was born on 22 December

FBG - I've never manager to find any record (apart from 1911 census) of Edward - do you mean you have found a record of his baptism?

The family seemed to move around a lot - if the pages on the 1901 census are missing is there any way I can get hold of them - why would they be missing?

Born Nov 10th
81 Northey st.


I f this is their son Edwards baptism,which it seems to be then they were at 81 Northey Street at that time.
AND
it is not on the 1901 census,it has been missed out by the look of it as the numbers jump fron 79 to 83 !

Hi Ian - I found that one but when I ordered the cert. the parents were different. The big coincidence is that the Aylesbury Jessie Faulkner was born on 22 December (close to my Jessie on 25 December), and William Faulkner's father (also William Faulkner) originally came from Stewkley in Buckinghamshire which is only around 10 miles from Aylesbury.

I'm not sure if I'm reading too much into it or not - and should I investigate this thread further? Although, when I checked the 1911 census there does appear to be a Jessie Faulkner living in Aylesbury (aged 7) - I didn't actually view the census as I had no credits left but thought this probably discredited my theory?

also have you looked under JESSE rather than JESSIE?

Also have you seen this one?
Name: Jessie Faulkner
Year of Registration: 1902
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Bolton
County: Greater Manchester, Lancashire
Volume: 8c
Page: 510

Theres this one, as she was born the very end of the year it is quite possible that she wasnt registered until the January etc therefore the below one is possibly her, definately worth ordering the certificate to confirm it. you could ask them at the reg office to check details before confirming order. For example checking mothers name!

Births Mar 1904
Faulkner Jessie Aylesbury 3a 963

Yes, I thought that may be the case so I've always done phonetic searches on the surnames using free bdm and the GR website. I'm really more interested in finding my grandmother's birth cert and wonder if there is somewhere else I could look - any ideas?

The problem being both of those surnames would be prone to mistranscription or spelt incorrectly at the time

Yes i remember now ...... i remember Louisa's surname

Yes - that's them in 1911!
My grandmother is Jessie Faulkner (born 25th Dec 1903 in Limehouse - but cannot find a birth cert).
William Faulkner and Louisa Quaintrell were born in 1866/7 but no marriage certificate -
I've looked and looked but to no avail!!!
