Find Ancestors

You're ahead of me - looks like Mary is correct then!

I am definitely going to order both birth and marriage certificates - fingers crossed.

Thx again

Hi Karen

Sorry but the baptism of Eddie/Edward makes no mention of a father.

You can search Norfolk records yourself here

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#w=0&p=waypoint&s=waypointsOnly&c=fs%3A1416598

They are original images so take a bit of trawling through but sometimes the vicar adds a little gem - in the case of one of my 2x gt grandmothers from Wymondham, Norfolk the vicar noted on her baptism in 1837 just a few months after her birth that 'the father has been abroad for the past 4 years'. Turns out that he had been transported for sheep stealing and couldn't actually have been her father anyway.

Thank you - I will take a look at the records

Kind regards
Karen

ps - I love the little story

For Info - I found birth record for Edward

Births Dec 1879 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lubbock Edward Erpingham 4b 73

For ref - see my Richardson thread where I am trying to find details of Thomas Richardson (c 1851) ie immediate family before marriage etc

I now have Edward Lubbocks marriage certificate and he has named Thomas Lubbock as his father (i am assuming his grandfather). Which raises more questions. Did he believe that his grandfather was his father, did he put him down as he was the man who brought him up and was his father figure, etc etc It does make you wonder.

Just thought I would add my findings to the thread

Hi Please could someone find me the 1871 census record for Cecilia Lubbock and let me know her brothers.

The 1881 census shows her brother Thomas age 22 but the info I was given by my gran about the 1871 census (which I havent seen myself yet) shows Thomas as age 4.
I am just wondering if my Gran wrote it down wrong or if the census really showed that.

Many thanks
Karen

Thank you Lynne

There is a discrepancy then

There is a Thomas Lubbock birth which matches his age of 22 in 1881??

Births Jun 1859 (>99%)
Lubbock Thomas Tunstead 4b 49

No, can't be him - here is his death -

Deaths Jun 1861 (>99%)
Lubbock Thomas Tunstead 4b 29

Ah I looked and saw the birth, but didnt see the death, thank you very much. I couldnt see a birth of the 1871 census Thomas either. A mystery!

I think I can add a feww gaps in for you here.

Thomas (the grandfather) was born ca 1838 and died in 1909. He married a Mary Ann Digby on 8 Mar 1860 at St Mary, Kelling.

They had the following children

Thomas (1859-1861)
George Richard (1862- )
Cecilia (1863 - ) [sometimes known a Celia]
Esther Ann (1865- )
Martin (1866- )
John (1867- )
Samuel (1870-1958) m Alice Joanna Steward 19 Sep 1898
Mary Maria (1871- ) [she later dropped the Mary and called herself Maria]
Mary Ann (1872- )
Margaret (1875- )
Richard (1876- )

Edward was born to Celia as you say and married Mary Elizabeth Duffield in 1910. I know of one daughter Gladys (b1913) who married Lawrence Woodhouse in 1936.

FYI
Thomas the grandfather was the son of Martin LUBBOCK and Cecilia COE after whom your Cecilia is named. This family goes back to the 1700's (at least as far as I have been able to trace) in Kelling.
