Find Ancestors

Let us know what the birth cert says.

Rose

Lucky for you that you had ancestors who were consistent in their place of birth. Oxford was the key!

Happy hunting with the rest.

Julie

THANK U

Mike,

You still there?

Hi Rose
Just remembered how to find a household on FMP using advanced search. This is them:

Household LOCK, Charles 1866 25 M Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Albert 1891 0 M Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Beatrice 1883 8 F Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Ernest 1887 4 M Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Florence 1880 11 F Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Percy 1890 1 M Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW
Household LODER, Thomas 1862 29 M Reading Berkshire VIEW VIEW

EDIT Oops Hannah is with them but doesn't appear as she is the 'other' person in the household that I used for the search


Mike/June
I'm sure you'll check all the connections yourself but the birth that Rose posted seems to be the most likely for your Florence. If she was born to Hannah Palmer you might never know who the father actually was.

If the connections are right then it would appear that Florence and "Nell" were cousins as Hannah and Richard Palmer were brother and sister.

Julie

Hi Julie,

That's just the free search for all Loders in Reading. Not sure if Beatrice is with them or not. The others tie in with the 1901 census.

Rose

Brilliant Rose!
I was tearing my hair out as I found Hannah, Florence & Beatrice
on FMP by searching on born Oxford, living Reading but I don't have a sub for FMP and couldn't find them on Ancestry. They must be very badly mistranscribed on Ancestry.........

Julie

EDIT- so Beatrice was also born before they were married

John Thomas is known as Thomas and John, depending on the census.

Thomas, Hannah and Florence aren't on Ancestry in 1891 but they are on Findmypast.

Julie

I would place my bets on that birth that Rose found. On the 1881 census Florence Palmer's birthplace is Headington. In the same family is a Richard Palmer who could well be the one that was father of Margaret E in the Wales census I posted.

There is also a Hannah Palmer in the 1881 census. Earlier Jan posted a marriage in 1885 of a Hannah Palmer to a John Thomas Loader in Reading.. I can't find that couple or Florence in the 1891 census.

I might have found Florence in 1901.

She is a housemaid in a training college in London. I think it says St.Gabriels on the image.

and lots of other names..............

If only we could find Florence in 1891 we might find the Palmer-Loader link!

Julie

I dont think Ellen nel or Nellie was welsh i think her husband may have been welsh the problem is on connecting florence and nel together i think i may have found her death in 1980 in pontypridd which would have been about right it certainly is after 1975 as i got married then and for a few years after i sent her christmas cards but her husband had died before this

The Florence in 1881 corresponds to this birth:

Births Jun 1879
Palmer Florence Louisa Headington 3a 709


Rose

thank you i have been linking these to are florence and there could be a link if you follow the richard link back to oxford here live in st thomas city of oxford there was on the 1881 cenus a grand daugther to his mother susan and father william (deceased) in 1881 call flo born 1880 but mishapens happen and lies where told on cenus

Last post for today!

Thought this was going off track BUT this looks like her

(The latter 4 are Boarders)

So the Oxfordshire link is there

Julie

There is this birth

Births Dec 1894 (>99%)
PALMER Margaret Ellen Pontypridd 11a 478

That would make her a lot younger than Florence if she is her sister.

Something to ponder anyway.

Julie

Looking for Margaret Palmer birthplace unknown is a bit of a needle in a haystack. If you feel inclined to send off for their marriage certificate it would hopefully say who her father was.

Looks like they had other children

Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Dec 1915 (>99%)
Martin Richard F Palmer Pontypridd 11a 980

Births Jun 1920 (>99%)
Martin Raymond P Palmer Pontypridd 11a 1366

Births Sep 1924 (>99%)
Martin Eric Palmer Pontypridd 11a 1086

Births Sep 1926 (>99%)
Martin Cynthia P Palmer Pontypridd 11a 975

Not that it helps any - just thought you might like to know!

Julie

This was the only Palmer/Martin Marriage I could find in Pontypridd prior to Raymond P Martin's birth in 1920

Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Jun 1915 (>99%)

Martin Charles H Palmer Pontypridd 11a 1212

Palmer Margaret Martin Pontypridd 11a 1212

Perhaps she was Margaret Ellen?

Julie

the welsh family were called Martin one of Raymonds records came up with Palmer Martens.

June

The Bicester Registration District covers a large area including part of Buckinghamshire

I have transcripts of the Bicester marriages which go to 1916 and it is not there
