Here's a Lucy Mace in Norfolk who could possibly be a sister:

Births Dec 1886
Mace Lucy Erpingham 4b 64


Can't see her in 1901.

If the family did go to Durham, this could be her marriage:

Marriages Mar 1904
Corlett Ann Jane Gateshead 10a 1131
> Mace Lucy Gateshead 10a 1131
Nicholson Joseph Gateshead 10a 1131
Scott James Gateshead 10a 1131

but if so, she doesn't seem to be in Durham in 1911, unless she's not reporting her birthplace accurately.

Now that Lucy Mace in 1891 with the Atkinsons visiting is very interesting. Entirely possible they wouldn't have bothered reporting her place of birth accurately.

And they're in Gateshead district, so that's very probably the Lucy Mace who married there in 1904.

EvieBeavie Report 1 May 2009 00:37

The Atkinsons seem to have visited to stay -- I didn't realize I was looking at 1901 and you had put the 1891 above.

1901

Joseph Blake 45
Martha Blake 43
Phoebe Mace 81
Edward Mace 49 - brother in law
Lucy Mace 19
William Gramshaw 28
George Atkinson 44 - brother in law
John O Atkinson 18
Frederick O Atkinson 16
Ada Atkinson 11


Are these the same Lucy and Edward that Sean put at the top of the page, enumerated twice??

The Durham Maces in 1881 in Winlaton, Durham

Edward Mace 31 (born Huntingdonshire)
Elizabeth Mace 30 (born Cumberland)
Annie Mace 2
Lucy Mace

They're a tad odd and I hope we don't have to get into them.

There is no birth record for that Lucy and no marriage for Edward & Elizabeth. Let us hope they are red herrings.



*If* our Gertrude Mace was born in Norfolk, these are *not* her people.

A Gertrude *Mace*? Where?

Can you give us the URL for the site where this is, Sean? I can't just google 'gertrude' and find whatever it is!

edit - Okay, I found it. I googled

"gertrude mace" daughter Evelyn 1904

http://genforum.genealogy.com/mace/messages/2009.html

"gertrude mace 1884 gloucestershire england
looking for any information as to what happen to Gertrude after 1904 when she gave birth to a daughter Evelyn"

She's this one:

Births Sep 1884
Mace Gertrude Shipston 6d 651

Births Dec 1904
MACE Evelyn Vera Shipston 6d 705

There's no Evelyn Mace living with a Gertrude in 1911 ...

EvieBeavie Report 1 May 2009 18:43

I also seem to have missed:

Marriages Sep 1904
Mace Gertrude Lily Norwich 4b 335


The Gertrude Lilly I have been looking at as being 'our' Gertrude.

One wonders whether Gertrude was the one with the past.

The two grooms on the page are Ladbrooke and Leaman. There are no births after 1911 with either surname combination.

And there is no matching Gertrude Ladbrooke or Gertrude Leaman in the 1911, or death for either name 1904-1911.

On, no, crap. This will be her in 1911:

LADBROOKE LILLIE 1873 38 Eton Buckinghamshire

... but no, she's 10 years too old, and there are kids born starting in 1896 ... aargh. Aha, there they are in 1901 ... except the husband is Robert, aargh. Anyhow, the rest of the family is right, so the 1911 Lillie is *not* Gertrude Lillie Mace who married in 1904, who remains unaccounted for.

Other than if she's our Gertrude.

You can just google Evie,thats what google is for isnt it?

And this is it I think

But I have been proved wrong before of course.

Sean.

HAVE YOU ORDERED THE MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE

for GERTRUDE MACE and FRANK ATKINSON

Marriages Sep 1907
ATKINSON Frank Auckland 10a 477
MACE Gertrude Auckland 10a 477


? IF NOT, WHY NOT???

We have no hope in a hot place of figuring out who Gertrude was without that -- on the assumption that it will give her age and name her father.
