Albert Turnbull D.O.B 1881 Darwen, there was information about his Military Time, I did purchase the information as well but that has disappeared as well. Any ideas where it could of gone.

According to Robert's army service records, this is Florence's death which gives her the middle name of May which might help:

Lancashire Death indexes for the years: 1915
Surname Forename(s) Age Sub-District Registers At Reference
CLARKSON Florence May 22 East Preston Preston EP/15/5

She died of Pneumonia on 21st March, 1915

Her son Robert died 6 months later - also aged 6 months so she must have given birth to him soon before she died.

He died on 26th August, 1915 of Epidemic Enteritis at the home of his Aunt, Hannah, who must have been looking after him.

Claire Report 14 Nov 2013 08:23

Yes 1911 Census is Correct and there is only one James Clarkson born in 1911 Census in Preston

Clarkson James Preston 8e 488

But Mother's Maiden Surname is Hainsworth not Ainsworth?

MargaretM Report 14 Nov 2013 03:36

There are 2 Florence Ainsworths on the 1901 census, Could be either.

1. Born 1891, Failsworth, Lancs., living Middleton, father John J. Ainsworth.

2. Born 1893, Darwen, living Darwen, father John Ainsworth.

Different Topic same surname

I have a Robert Clarkson D.O.B 1888 Preston whom Married a Florence Ainsworth on 25th September 1910 in Preston. Records state Florence Ainsworth Parent was a John Stead. Cannot find a birth record for Florence so a tad confused.

Why not simply invest in one of the birth certs.........and get factual info about Jane?

I'm afraid I don't know anything about GR records..........I would never contemplate using them

Claire

Claire Report 11 Nov 2013 09:59

I used to check all records straight from genes reunited site itself but now I don't because of all the updates it has got a whole lot more complicated

Claire

Claire Report 11 Nov 2013 09:56

I usually go onto Lancashirebmd or Ukbmd, it is difficult at times cross referencing D.O.B and maiden surnames of the the Mother. I also use the online church projects. That is why I have got totally confused. Getting the Maiden name wrong for the children's mum will possibly make other records wrong.

ErikaH Report 7 Nov 2013 09:16

In the years that you have been researching this.......where have you looked for birth info?

Surely this is one of the ones you list.......from freebmd

Births Jun 1876 (>99%)
CLARKSON William Henry Liverpool 8b 171

AND...........another one!

Births Jun 1882 (>99%)
Clarkson Thomas Albert W. Derby 8b 619

If you wish to know Jane's surname, purchase a copy one of the above


Before 1875, there were no penalties for not registering births, so the father's birth may simply never have been registered

I thought at first that this was the correct record for 1871 but then Louisa has 2 children in 1881 living with her William age 9 and John age 6 and says Married but husband not there on either.

I wonder if Thomas & Jane never actually married - I can't find a death for Louisa & she is living with her sister and brother-in-law in 1881 &1891

this seems to be Thomas in 1871
