Find Ancestors

Still working way through children -
Alfred Goode born 1841
Is on census with parents 1841, 1851 - then he disappears also.

Not to be confused with Samuel Goode's (George's Brother) Son Alfred born abt 1845 who marries a Mary and can be found. :-(

George Goode Age 57 Died 1869 Manchester - Had a look at a few trees on ancestry with this George Goode in and whilst not 100% there is very good evidence that this is not my missing George Goode.

Don't think he is with Catherine Goode either -
baptism 1838
1841 and 1851 with parents
1861 not with parents
There are 2 Catherine Goode's married in suffolk one in 1860 in Stow and one in 1876 Plomesgate. - Cannot find Catherine from the 1876 marriage in later census using birth details of my Catherine Goode so assumed the marriage for 1860 Catherine is correct parish Stow would also be correct parish if stays near to birth place.
1861 in Harleston with new family(transcribed name Katherine)
1871 in Warren Road Wetherden with family (transcribed name Kate)- no George
1881 - in Wetherden with Family
1891 - not finished search yet
1901 - not finished search yet
1911 - Wetherden with family
Probable death 1919 - but not specifically searched yet
Have a tiny human who will be up soon so giving up for this evening but will continue the search as soon as I can. Any more help/guidance much appreciated. Thank you

Had a look for a second marriage but not sure on this one

Looking at the children of George and Elizabeth -
Eliza Ann Goode born 1834 baptised 02/12/1834 Haughley
Not on 1841 Census - in Harlestone
Probable burial 06/06/1837 Age 2 Harlestone
I think she died so we will not find George here. :-(

That George was only 19:

GOOD, GEORGE 19
GRO Reference: 1862 S Quarter in THINGOE Volume 04A Page 261

Have you looked at this death record?

Sep 1862 Good George, Thingoe, 4a 261

I looked at Deaths on GRO between 1861 and 1871 and it would appear there are only 2 of about the right age. Could these be possibilities? I cannot find any connection to the locations though
George Goode Age 56 Died 1867 Greenwich
George Goode Age 57 Died 1869 Manchester

Hi,

I have George as this is my direct line up to the missing George Goode. Maria's George is defiantly illegitimate with no dad listed on the birth certificate. Maria's George married Florence Lambert in 1884 and is in Bradford in 1891 onwards and dies 1919.

Maria's other children -
Jane I havent found after 1881 either
William - I havent found after 1881 either but I have briefly just looked at my hints on him on ancestry and it appears he might still be in Suffolk married to a Sarah but need to double check this birth date appears to be a couple of years later
Alfred - (you might not have him) he dies age 1
Julia- same nothing after 1881
Alice - I havent looked at yet
The second Alfred dies 1883

Its a while since I looked at these so might revisit.

And the same goes for Maria, in 1871 - ie - Her father's not with her.
Sadly she died in 1879, and her husband in 1876.
Their children are all living together in 1881, but still no sign of George 1810.

I can't see them after 1881, so far.

EDIT:

Oh yes, I see Maria and Edwin/Edward's son George in later censuses. He was born Goode, then listed as Chinery in 1881, then reverts to Good(e).

But no sign of "old" George with him or his family.

YES! - That makes sense. :-D

WayneTracey - Sarah Rush would appear to be the wife of Isaac. Isaac is the first child (I have found) of George and Elizabeth. You asked me about the children and about the possibility of surnames being Goode and Good. Isaac is the first child I have looked at in more detail and the first time I have had lots of confusion with the surname being both Goode and Good. Hope this makes sense in the context of your questions. Fingers crossed.

Similarly, he's not with Mary Ann and her husband in 1871 - 1911:

But no sign of George with them in 1881, 1901 or 1911.
Haven't found them in 1891.

You searched the GRO with a MMN of Rush, but you have above that George's wife was named Elizabeth Stannard?

Am i missing something?

EDIT: i have found Elizabeth's GRO index, with a mother's maiden name of Stannard.

George - 1847
Elizabeth - 1849

Hi, up until now bar probable transcription errors on census with interchangeable Goode and Good (probably due the the person writing the document) the official records have been Goode. However I started to look at their children in more detail starting with Isaac and he would appear to be using both Goode and Good from what I can see. I went through the GRO with surname Goode and Good looking for MMN Rush and it would appear they only register their first child as Goode and the rest as Good. Although I haven’t seen any official documents to double check I have the right people. Hope this makes sense.

OK, first significant issue i see is, i cannot immediately 'see' a birth for Mary Ann Goode?

Was the family name Goode, or Good?

Have you checked all records for errors, for possible mis-transcriptions?

I would be tracing all the children and following them through the years to see if George pops up!

Tracey

I have briefly looked and no obvious sign of him. Just working through them in more depth.

Hi Susan,

Have you traced the children to see if George pops up at their addresses in 1871?

EDIT: 1871 - Elizabeth (Betsy) appears to be living in Woodbridge Road, St Margaret, Ipswich, Suffolk, England. Working as a Servant.


Tracey

No, unfortunately it isn't, having checked the GRO site

So - no help there.

Is this the sons death? I haven't got this one yet.
