Graham, if his mother was remarried then surely her name wouldn't be Partridge anymore?

Who was the stepbrother?

How have you connected to Harry?

GlitterBaby Report 7 Mar 2013 20:43

1881 has a possible with mother Annie but that cross checks to Harry Sidney Partridge

MarieCeleste

MarieCeleste Report 7 Mar 2013 20:44

A long shot for 1891 but Graham mentions Annie as mother ....

PARTRIDGE, Alfred Head Married M 40 1851 Railway Guard Castle Hedingham
PARTRIDGE, Anna E Wife Married F 40 1851 Maldon
PARTRIDGE, Maud Daughter Single F 17 1874 Dressmakers Apprentice Islington
PARTRIDGE, Horace Son M 16 1875 Stockbrokers Clerk Islington
PARTRIDGE, Harry Son M 13 1878 Scholar Islington
PARTRIDGE, Frank Son M 9 1882 Scholar Walthamstow

Piece: 175 Folio: 141 Page: 20
Registration District: Islington
Civil Parish: Islington

Address: 41, Gillespie Road, Islington, London County: London

(Think this may be the same family as GB mentions on the 1881)

So who is the step brother ?

Graham

Graham Report 9 Mar 2013 17:38

Thanks for all your responses
Harry partridge died in Bournemouth 1974
There is a verbal story of a coachman of named Heriman
also verbal stories around Kensington area.
Harry's Partridges half-brother was William Course and were
quite close ,
William's father Alfred at some time moved to Essex,with his elder
brother George Dixon..his mother Anne seems to have stayed in London
with William P G----William is my .Grandfather
Hope this answers some Questionsfor you all
look foward to hearing from you with any suggestions or info
I am following up on all leads as they must lead to an answer
(I hope)

Thanks

GDC :-)

Graham,
I am sorry but I find your information very confusing.

You have so many bits and pieces and 'leads'.

I quote:
'Harry's Partridges half-brother was William Course and were
quite close ,
William's father Alfred at some time moved to Essex,with his elder
brother George Dixon'

If Harry's half-brother was William Course, then William's father is Alfred Course. So who is George Dixon?
Can we have some dates and places attached.

Thank-you

Graham

Graham Report 9 Mar 2013 22:42

George Dixon is the eldest son of alfred .
george and lived in orsett .essex
alfred died in 1955 his son george was a witness

alfred is listed as deceased in 1911 ( I think)at
the marriage of my grandfather william p in brighton

and has a female witness of annie partridge ---confused?
I am ,but this is the facts I am trying to find the loose ends
and movments if i can

Thanks for all

patchem Report 9 Mar 2013 23:44

If George Dixon is the eldest son of Alfred, then Alfred is Alfred Dixon?
But you put that William Course's father was Alfred, so he is Alfred Course?

You have also just put that Alfred died in 1955 and was deceased in 1911.

Added:
Is this Alfred Dixon's death:
Alfred Dixon
Birth Date: abt 1883
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1955
Age at Death: 72
Registration district: East Ham
Inferred County: Essex
Volume: 5a
Page: 29
Added: The above is wrong as it is Alfred Course not Alfred Dixon who dies in 1955

You have put
'the marriage of my grandfather william p in brighton' in 1911.

I can see no marriage of William Partridge in 1911 in Brighton.

Added:
Your grandfather is William Course.
Births Jun 1886
COURSE William Percy G Islington 1b 351
Marriages Dec 1911
Course William P G Brighton 2b 445

OK, so this links some of them:
Births Jun 1881
COURSE George Dixon Islington 1b 237
