Find Ancestors

Hi again, I had a look at Freebdm's but could not find any children so it looks like they didn't have any. It is so wonderful the internet and the all the records that has been recorded. Hats off to those people who helped. I started back went we had to write letters and snail mail them about twenty five years ago and then had to wait for replies or pay a researcher and now I can recheck all that I have found. I will record all that you have given me. Thanks again and now back to researching the other lines of the Brittan's and Ellis's.
Regards Geraldine

Not the line you are researching, but related on the male's side.

To look for possible children, use freebmd.

They travelled in 1922 without children so the assumption must be that there weren't any, or that they had died

BAIRD-HANDYSIDE Ethel M 74 Surrey N. 5g 447

Wow, I am overwhelmed with all this information. It well take me days to figure this all out, thank you so much. But I have been trying to find out if John (Jack) Raymond Baird-Handyside and Ethel Mary Brittan had any children between their marriage in 1913 and when they came out to Australia in 1922 then Ethel went back alone to England in 1927. I haven't found any second marriage for Ethel in England so no children to be found I know that John did marry again in Australia. The line I have been following is Ethel's on the Brittan side as Ethel was the daughter of Ernest Charles Brittan and Adeline Wheeler married 1882. Ernest's brother Herbert married my grandmother's sister Mary Ellis which was her cousin so the Brittan and the Ellis are all connected.
Thanks again Geraldine

Geraldine, If you google William London Busch Handyside there are a few bits of info that others have posted about him.

Just wandering off at a bit of a tangent here:

Adelaide Isabella Handyside
in the England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966


Name: Adelaide Isabella Handyside
Probate Date: 10 Jun 1886
Death Date: 12 May 1886
Death Place: Middlesex, England
Registry: Principal Registry

Administration of the personal estate of Adelaide Isabella Handyside (wife of William Loudon Busch Handyside) late of Rutland House, Kenway Road, Cromwell Road in the county of Middlesex who died 12th May 1886 at Sea, was granted at the Principal Registry to the said William Loudon Busch Handyside of 58 Warwick Road, Kensington in the said county, bank clerk.


The divorce petition (posted above by Chris) was in 1885.
Wonder if the divorce wasn't finalised by the time of her death, as she was apparently still his wife?]

EDIT: Having looked at the image of the decree paperwork, the petition was dated 12 May 1885 (just wondering - is that relevant to the date of her death ??).
The decree nisi was 9th Dec 1885, but there's no date for final decree.

Their marriage, from SP:

There's no need for Geraldine to buy the 1913 marriage certificate as the image is on Ancestry. Will be happy to send it once she starts her own thread.

EDIT: On second thoughts, the info may be of interest to the original poster too (if he returns) so will add it anyhow. Here it is
