mmn Martin

It seems then that the divorce I found was his. Might be worth looking at that.

Forgot to add, as Richard suggested last wk, to clarify i have the right person would it be possible for anyone to double check the issue i have with Joan Welbourns possible father...

I know he was Joe White Welbourn, and he used to live at 40 West Terrace, Hucknall, Notts in 1921 but when i looked at the 1901 Census..it has a Joe 'While' Welbourn aged 12 living at Great North Lodge, Newstead Priory. Could this be an admin error?? Would like to make sure i have the right one before i proceed!

Much appreciated if anyone has time!

Hello im back! Sorry been on hols for few days but back now and hot on the trail again!

Written a few letters tonight to various Kausmans and hope they still live there and are poss related!

Thanks for all your help last wk, if anyone has any spare time, would very much appreciate a few hints!

Received 2 certificates this morning, details as follows!

Birth Certificate for

Sheila Margaret Kausman.(my Dads poss half sister!)
On Top of page: Reg 1940 Birth in sub D of Staines

then underneath:
Date of Birth 07 Aug 1938, 16 the Hall, London Rd, Stanwell, Staines

Name: Sheila Margaret

Mother: Joyce Margaret: "now the wife of Harry Gordon Kausman" (Commercial Traveller!)

then a note hand written at the side of the paper
" Prev registered on 8th Sept 1938 at entry 329 in staines sub district "Adopted" (cant be related then!)


Does any one know if this means she was adopted by both Joyce and Harry? or is it possible she belonged to Joyce and the Harry adopted her as his own 1 yr after they married in 1939.

Am unsure how to check this if anyone has any ideas, would really appreciate it.

The Marriage cert did not throw any new light really except Harry was married to Joyce Margaret Martin 26 Jan 1939, She was 20, and that he was Previously married to Phyllis White. Have tried finding and children but cant? any ideas there?

Big hello and thanks to everyone who helped last week! Hope you all had a good weekend!

Hi all, just wondered if anyone also knew of any way any information can be looked up regarding profession in the Civil Service? G H Kausman was listed as one on his marriage certificate?

Thanks in advance!

I know it means nothing but on ancestry the transcribed version states joe white welbourn.

Maybe someone else out there can take a look to see what they think.

(joe white welbourn 1889 carlton notts)

yeah its ambiguous on the actual scan of document but the typed up list of occupants states While..

i do hope its the right one...had an emotional trip over there...its called Great North Lodge (The Gate house to a Priory, not huge but very sweet, and theres a huge tree outside and i stared at it for ages thinking i bet Joe used to look at it as a child? maybe even climb it! I took a picture of house and tree if anyone is bored and wants a butchers! can email! ( Im obsessed with trees by the way too!) and taking pictures! And old inanimate objects that have witnessed years of history!

Should stop before i scare people..! ;-)

Just looked at the original for the 1901 cencus, it does look like (While) but i would suspect it is (White).

P/S hope you enjoy your drink.

Just checked my printouts, on the 1901 Census information, Joe 'While' Welborn was listed at this address aged 12...do you think it could be an admin error???

Lisa Report 8 May 2008 22:49

How bizarre?? wonder where i found that then? gonna recheck! So my lovely house in the grounds of Newstead Priory may not be a red herring after all!??
