Will have to come back to you on this search - this will take me digging around in my discs. Will PM you even if i find nothing.

Lesley

Hi lesley
sorry she was born in islington, lived in tottenham her parents were John James Mawby born 1869 islington and Emily Matilda Sharpe born 1870. I found them on the 1901 census by searching for Emilys brother William Francis Sharpe born 1893, he lived with them.
Thanks
Alison

Well you've got me stumped. I've tried every which way to find her but nothing is coming up. I've tried under variations of Mawby and everything. On the 1901 census she is 7. So she really should have been 17 and not 15 on the 1911 census. That got me thinking maybe she was a child born out of Wedlock, but they married in 1892!!! Her age range as per census records is 1894 - 1896.

It could be that they never registered her, but I find that hard to believe.

Will carry on looking and hunting regardless and PM you if I find anything.

Another suggestion is does your Dad remember who she married? This could be a road to go down as this would give her name also.

Lesley

Hi! Lesley,

I as wondering if you could do a search for me?

I am looking Birth information on Mavis Ellen Brend I think this might be her 1905 St Austell, Cornwall 5c 88 and her brother Arthur Phillips 1906 St Austell, Cornwall 5c 92.

I believe they are my Grandmothers children who were born out of wedlock. Could you get me the information from their birth certificates if possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.

Regards,

Bill

Hi Bill

Sadly not I'm afraid - in order to get that information you have to buy a copy of the Certificate.


Hi Elaine

I can do some Irish look ups but they are few and far between. I have seen a post on here from someone who seems to have all the discs that can be obtained for Ireland - I would post on her board.

Lesley

Hi Lesley,
please can you look for the death of Harriet Grace Willson, born 1837.Cannot find her on Free BMD or NBI ( this because Middlesex is very badly covered). Could be the West Ham area, but not 100% sure.

Hello Lesley I would appreciate any information about Mary Clewing born 1816 married Edward Smith. I believe she came from Boston Lincs.
She later lived in Sleaford Lincs
Any background info would be useful
Thank you

Jane

What was the last census you found Harriet Willson on? Is it the one who lived in Bethnal Green and came from Cambridgeshire?

Lesley

Tracker

Nothing at all coming up for her...when did she marry Edward Smith?

Lesley

Hi Lesley she was the mother of Augustina Smith Sleaford and she lived Jermyn Street Sleaford I know on a census she was with Edward Smith and went by the name Smith. This is a brick wall for me.

Tracker

I can't understand how you got the name of Clewing.

Augustine's siblings had the following names

Georgiana Elizabeth Longmead Smith
Frederick A Longmead Smith

This longmead name has to mean something.

Can I ask where you got the Clewing from?

Lesley

Tracker

One of her Younger brothers on Census as John H is this one

Births Dec 1862

SMITH Alphonse John Henry Longmate Smith Sleaford

again....Longmead!!!

Lesley

Hi Lesley,
The 1881 census for 2 Piggott st,Limehouse shows Harriet Willson as head of household, age 42.

Lesley thankyou Mary Smith I have seen this name Longmead further down the line as a middle name I got the name cleing from looking up a marriage but I have probably assumed wrong as Smith was a popular name and there would have been more than one Edward Smith. Where do I go from here?
I have her on 1871 Census living in Sleaford with Edward and Augustina [husbands great grandmother] is 11 there is also a dutch name. I have her on 1881 Census as widow living in Sleaford with Millicent Grandchild, Rose who belonged to Augustina and Granchild Charlotte Address 6 Jermyn Street Sleaford I am trying to go up a generation by finding out about Mary Smith
