Seems pretty unlikely -- in particular, the man's wife would be named as next of kin if he were married, unless he were estranged, I suppose.

Births Sep 1883
Atkinson William Fewlass Hull 9d 248


Why do we keep cluttering up the thread with people who plainly aren't relevant????

death 9/8/1915 age 32
if this is him gertrude could have married again and had another child ie lucy
seanxxx

re that 1904 marriage - it seems that Martha Gardiner married Arthur Bradley.

1911

BRADLEY MARTHA 1884 27 Lanchester Durham
BRADLEY ARTHUR 1879 32 Lanchester Durham

Which leaves Ruth Layton as having married that Frank Boagey, whoever he was.

CHARLES EDWARD NELSON ATKINSON born BOAGEY

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

Births Dec 1908
Boagey Charles Edward N Durham 10a 418


Unknown why he was registered as Boagey when his father had used surname Atkinson to marry Gertrude Mace.


Married as Atkinson to Winifred Wells, Sheffield, 1930.


Not a huge showing for all these pages - but I think those are the important, tested and proved facts.

Now please post anything significant that's been left out!

Cont'd. No interruptions, now.

Well I clicked and waited for the weekend of summerisation,but it would appear to be lacking from these pages.
Sigh:,more clicking and waiting to be done then.

Sean.

Births Dec 1904
BOAGEY Francis Hartlepool 10a 145

1911

BOAGEY FRANK 1905 6 Hartlepool Durham

Searching in 1911 for Boagey in Hartlepool living with Frank Boagey, can't tell who's living with whom without paying, because there is also this Frank Boagey in Hartlepool:

BOAGEY FRANK 1907 4 Hartlepool Durham

But there is no Gertrude living with either of them, for instance. Or Martha.

Ah, it's still the weekend here, so I'm not tardy!

It's Victoria Day weekend, don't you know. We North American colonials get a day of to celebrate the old Queen's birthday!

Martha and William ... who knows??

Bit "skwiffy" are we Viv ?.....me too ;0

Who are Martha and William....confused now....!!

Look back to page 6...

Viv, Wish I was "rolling in it ", but alas, no. I just need him to Marry me now... :)))) (my OH that is, not Sean tee hee)

Mrs Sean has the right idea, going to bed, who in their right mind would stay up, till the early hour's looking for "dead people" ;) THEN, come on first thing in the morning, to see if any more are found!!!

Misty x

Its a shame that your OH couldnt operate on SEANS "researching" skills then Misty.
It would have saved us a good few hours.

Waves to Sean:)

And Im with the mrs Sean ,DO NOT WAKE ,unless its an emergency.
Ere thats a point ,if mistys OH is a surgeon they must be rolling in it,you know how much they get paid!!

Havent got a clue what the s is for,I have sent for a crystal ball but it hasnt arrived yet.

Gotta get some kip now,and medal in the post for mrs Sean,due to her fortitude of having Sean pretty housebound for sometime
