Two different people have corrected the record for the HORE/ORD family in the 1841 census at Ancestry


Name: William Dour [William Hore] [William Ord]
Age: 45
Estimated birth year: abt 1796
Gender: Male
Where born: Shropshire, England
Civil Parish: Wellington
Hundred: South Bradford (Wellington Division)
County/Island: Shropshire
Registration district: Wellington

William 45 groom
Susanna 40
Louisa 8
Susannah 16
Allen 3
Hannah 1


the image actually reads HOAR quite clearly

in 2007 someone corrected it to Hore and said 'maybe relative'

in 2014 someone corrected it to Ord and said it was a variation

you can try to contact those people through the Ancestry system

Jemma have you read the information in the thread? it can be confusing when it is just copied and pasted records, but you need to read each one and see how they fit together

(maybe you had not seen page 2 when you typed your reply, that often happens)


this one in particular which I recopied above

Name: Joseph Swanwick HORE
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 20 Nov 1842
Christening Place: WELLINGTON,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
Father's Name: William Hore
Mother's Name: Susannah


it seems that Joseph's real name at birth, and his father's name, was HORE (or another spelling of it: Hoar, Hoare)

the 1851 census says

William HORE 56 born 1795 in Ketley, Shropshire
Joseph HORE 9 born 1842 in Shropshire, England


and see also the burial record Chris posted

HOARE Susanna, March 24th 1850, Wellington, Christ Church
abode was Watling Street
age was 50

... that is the address where the widowed William HORE was living with the children including your Joseph, in 1851


none of the children's births, or Susanna's death, seems to have been registered under any surname

could this be William's death?

Deaths Dec 1872
HOARE William 83 Wellington, Sh. 6a 507



'Ord' is most likely a phonetic spelling of the name when it was changed from HORE to HOARD because people didn't like being called 'Hore' even though the 'h' was silent -- Hoard is the more common new spelling when that happens

Hannah first went to the States C1898 and returned C1903, 1908 dates only approx. she returned to England after 40 years as Nanny to the Gilchrist family. She appears on the 1910 US census. These three times she entered the states on HMS Campania through Ellis Island. (Don't have any other records on that.
Her husband Thomas Jones had been adopted by the Gwynne family on his mother's (Rosannah Jones) marriage to Francis Gwynne. Thomas died from Acute Endopericarditus 2 years after his marriage.
They had three children Mabel (b1893, d1904 aged 11); Harold (d1915 killed at the battle of Ypres WWI aged 21); Evelyn (died soon after birth).
As for Joseph Ord I find him on the 1871,81,91, and 1901 census. I have a copy of his marriage cert., 6th November, 1865, which lists William Ord as his father. One of the witnesses was a Sarah Ord, Sister or mother I don't know.

I cannot find any trace so far of William Ord.

aha, I clicked on the thread wondering whether this would turn out to be one of the Hoar/Hoare/Hore hoard, and sure enough there it is :-) --

Name: Joseph Swanwick Hore
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 20 Nov 1842
Christening Place: WELLINGTON,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
Father's Name: William Hore
Mother's Name: Susannah

so the surname was really HORE

it was very common for people with this name to change it because of its connotations (imagine my glee when I informed my mum that her ancestor was a Hoar) ... whether they made it so the spelling matched the dropped 'h' (Orr) or by adding a 'd' at the end (Hoard) ... or in the case of 'Ord', both ... and, elsewhere than Devon/Cornwall it sometimes became 'Hawe' and variants I believe

this was more common among emigrants to places where the 'h' was less likely to get dropped and their name was being pronounced 'Hore' :-)


from the 1851 census, Joseph's father William HORE was born in Ketley, Shropshire, so this family is likely not related to the Cornwall or Devon Hoar/Hoare/Hores (my line is Cornwall)

but you can probably still assume that the name was originally Hore

Had two pm's this morning

Joseph Swanick Ord born c1844 died c1902 The marriage date of 1865 makes sense as he would have been about 21 yrs.


I sort of have marriage cert. only a copy off the internet. It gives William Ord as the father.

Jemma

You pm,d me saying you do not have e any certs at the moment so will have to get them

You should reply on the thread rather than contact individuals by sending them a message .

Other folks who are helping can't see any replies you make by PM

Thanks :-)

Thank you for the speedy replies. I will answer your questions as I read through.

PM received from Jemma

"Thank you
yes I made a drastic error. Joseph was born C1844 not 1884."




The helpers on this site. who are other members just like you, have posted a lot of information on your request but we have no idea if any of it is correct or not as you have obviously read the thread.

Would like to know if you have the 1865 marriage cert of Joseph and Margaret to find out the name and occupation of his father and who the witnesses are.
