* Readers Notes:
*
* 1.
* This file is best printed in landscape in 8-point Courier New or equivalent.
*
* 2.
* Numbers in <> refer to the IDs of other people in the tree.
*
* 3.
* All exact dates are either in the UK date format - DD/MM/YYYY, eg. 14/03/1988 or 04/01/1988,
* or in the genealogical standard date format - D MMM YYYY eg. 14 MAR 1988 or 4 JAN 1988.
* Prior to 1752, New Years Day was 25th March (Lady Day), from 1752 NYD changed to the
* 1st January we know. Dates before 1752 with a '(L)' following them, eg. 04/01/1724(L) or 4 JAN 1724(L),
* are of the old style, while dates with a '(N)' following them, eg. 04/01/1725(N) or 4 JAN 1725(N),
* are of the new Gregorian style (if before 1752 they have been pre-converted).
* They may be written as 04/01/1724(L)1725(N) recording both forms.
* If it is not known which new year system a date uses, it may be written 04/01/1724(X)
* (meaning that if the date in the source data, written 1724, was in the old system, then it is 1725 converted
* to the new, but if it was already converted to the new system then it remains 1724.)
* Dates in or after 1752 with no indication of the date system used may be reasonably assumed to be of the new form.
* Dates before 1752 with no indication of the date system used may be reasonably assumed to be of the old form.
* Also, note that in September 1752, 10 days were dropped in conversion/synchronisation to the
* Gregorian calendar, such that the day after 02/09/1752 was 14/09/1752 - be careful with the year 1752!
*
* 4.
* Approximate dates (usually derived from ages on censues) are written c{nnnn}, eg. c1870.
* Approximate dates from census ages are usually accurate +/- 2 years, providing that the person knew how
* old they were and that they didn't lie!
*
* 5.
* Sources of the data in the file are recorded in [square brackets]
* and include the following abbreviations/shortcuts:

* The "Position" field is denoted as:
* the initial 0 is me (Ian Ward <1>)
* additional zeros on the right denote a persons father
* additional ones on the right denote a persons mother
* a # denotes a sibling
* a * denotes marriage
* a ^ denotes offspring
* eg. I (Ian Ward <1>) am 0
* My sister is 0#
* My father is 00
* My mother is 01
* My uncle on my mothers side is my mothers brother, or 01#
* My paternal grandfather is 000
* My paternal grandmother is 001
* My maternal grandmother is 011
* My maternal grandfather is 010
* My grandfather (on my mothers side) second marriage is 010*
* The offspring of that second marriage are 010*^
* Position numbers that are wholely numeric are actually similar to an 'ahnentafel' number
* (type it into your favourite search engine for a description of what that means, if you don't know).
* To convert these to an ahnentafel, change the leading '0' to a '1', treat the resulting number as
* being in binary and convert it to decimal. Ahnentafels with a base descendant other than myself
* can also be calculated relatively easily from these Position numbers with a little coding.
*
* 7.
* Generation numbers are organised as follows:
* I (Ian Ward <1>) am generation 0, the base generation for this tree. So are my sister and first cousins.
* Past generations before mine are negative, so my mum and dad are gen -1, my grandparents -2, etc.
* Younger generations are positive, so my children will be generation +1, their children +2, etc.

Booth Michael (michael2002york@yahoo.co.uk) says on Mervyn and Joyce:
On Wed, 10 Sep 2003 18:43:10 +0100 (BST), Booth Michael wrote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep, Mervyn Pillinger was general manager of Booth and Fisher's and
was my dad's first cousin. His mother was my great-aunt, Hilda
Booth, sister of the founders of Booth and Fisher. She married
Frank Pillinger, father of Mervyn and, I think, Raymond.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also relating into the tree, and connected with the Wards, are Susan and Alan (Green?),
with daughter Nicole. It is unclear yet how they relate in, however.
In 1912, Bernard Ward <<90>> wrote a letter (on paper headed "Bernard Ward", "BERNARD WARD, HOG SALESMAN, 26, CHARNWOOD STREET, DERBY.")
dated 12/06/1912 to 'Jack' (actually John <45>).
It contains a statement that 'Jack' is married, and an implication that 'Jack' has a nine month old daughter:
"glad to hear that you are happily married + comfortable.
she is a bonny girl of nine months. should think you are both proud of her"

(Thomas <9> and Beatrice <8>) at Shirley Road, Rushden.
Greville:
With regard to my mother ...
Born on 04/12/1912, her mother, Beatrice May Philips, died 11 days after her
birth, on 15th Dec. Beatrice Margaret was brought up by her aunts --
sisters of her father Harry Knapton. There were 3 sisters (but I only knew
2 of them), but how soon after the death of Beatrice May they took the
responsibility, and whether it was a legal adoption, I do not know.
I saw my grandfather Harry on only a few occasions. I remember him visiting
his sisters on one occasion, but he lived in Aston, Birmingham, with his
second wife Beatrice Maud Hanley, where he had an engineering business, and
we visited I suppose a couple of times from Rushden and slept on a mattress
on the floor in the bedrooms over the shop. (Funny how Harry seemed to like
the name 'Beatrice M' !!).
From Greville (07/08/2003):
Nothing spectacular [from birth certificate] on Beatrice Margaret Knapton -
Born at 10 Victoria Gardens, Horsforth
Her father (Harry) is shown residing at Beck Bottom, Farsley - the family home no doubt.
--
"Confirmed" on 10th April 1930 at Farsley Parish Church
[from certificate in front of confirmation book given to her on the day by the vicar]
On 14/01/2004, on Hugh Knaptons advice, I ordered the birth certificate of a Dennis Marshall Knapton, born 1921.
Registration district North Bierley
1921 birth in the sub-disrtrict of Pudsey in the county of Yorks (W.R.)
Name: Dennis Marshall
Born: First July 1921 (the word Eleventh was written, but crossed out, and there
is also the number 10 seems to have been written between the word First
and the crossed out Eleventh, whatever that may mean)
39 New Street, Pudsey
Sex: Boy
Father: Harry Knapton, Draughtsman (Electrical Engineer)
Mother: Beatrice Maud Knapton formerly Hawley
Informant: Harry Knapton, Father, 36 New Street, Pudsey
(note the different house number to where Dennis was born, they definitely
say 39 and 36 respectively)
Registered: Eleventh July 1921
Registrar: H.Halliday, deputy registrar
(*all* other certs I've seen have said 'Registrar' rather than 'Deputy', so
this is interesting in itself to me :o)
I immediately noticed Harry and Beatrice Knapton here and wondered if he was
related to the Harry Knapton in my tree. At first I discounted it, but then
realised two things: (i) the name Marshall would be something of a coincidence,
and (ii) that Beatrice May Phillips, my great-grandmother and wife of my Harry
Knapton, died in 1912. That means that Harry could easily have re-married to
Beatrice Maud Hawley by 1921. I also know from Harry's marriage to my
great-grandmother that he was a draughtsman. He didn't die until 1953.
I also know he had a prediliction for 'Beatrice M's - he married Beatrice May
Phillips in 1911, and named my grandmother Beatrice Margaret. It wouldn't surprise
me if he later re-married a Beatrice Maud... There seem to be too many
coincidences here to write off - Dennis could be [is, according to greville]
my grandmothers half-brother!

From Greville: Birth Certificate Reference: Calv/20/450
It appears from Grevilles entry in GenesConnected, that Harry also married a
Beatrice Maud Hanley, born 1885 in Birmingham(?).
Greville:
I saw my grandfather Harry on only a few occasions. I remember him visiting
his sisters on one occasion, but he lived in Aston, Birmingham, with his
second wife Beatrice Maud Hanley, where he had an engineering business, and
we visited I suppose a couple of times from Rushden and slept on a mattress
on the floor in the bedrooms over the shop. (Funny how Harry seemed to like
the name 'Beatrice M' !!).
From Greville (07/08/2003):
Neither is there anything new on Harry Knapton -
Born at Beck Bottom, Farsley
From Greville (07/08/2003):
The Certificate for John Marshall Knapton shows
That he was born at Angel Yard, Mercy Street (that will be West Leeds)
And his father was John Knapton (a Spinner) and his mother Hannah Knapton, formerly Wilson.
This confirms the information I had found about John and Hannah Knapton in the 1881 Census
When Grandson Francis (Gladstone) aged 13 was at their house in Bramley.
That also confirms that John Marshall had (at least) two brothers.
From Greville (07/08/2003):
With regards to Gladstone - his is the Certificate that the Registrar did not send.
Reason being that the name of his mother did not correspond to the one (Emma) that was on my application.
This lends to confirm that he was born before John & Emma married.
I am concluding that John was his father - but was John married before?
I rather think he may have been - more detective work.
I'll keep you posted.
Grevile (18/09/2003):
I've finally managed to get some info on the above-named [Francis Gladstone KNAPTON].
You will recall that he appeared in the 1881 Census in Stanningley aged 13 and then in the 1901 Census in Farsley
aged 33 but that I had failed to get a birth certificate from Leeds.
I applied for one from the GRO and it arrived yesterday.
It shows his DOB as 20th June 1867.
Parents: John Marshall Knapton & Frances Knapton, formerly Bennett (deceased).
The birth was registered on 22nd July 1867, so Frances presumably died fairly soon after giving birth to young Francis G.
In due course I hope to get their Marriage certificate and Frances's Death cert.

On 14/01/2004, on Hugh Knaptons advice, I ordered the birth certificate of a Dennis Marshall Knapton, born 1921.
Registration district North Bierley
1921 birth in the sub-disrtrict of Pudsey in the county of Yorks (W.R.)
Name: Dennis Marshall
Born: First July 1921 (the word Eleventh was written, but crossed out, and there
is also the number 10 seems to have been written between the word First
and the crossed out Eleventh, whatever that may mean)
39 New Street, Pudsey
Sex: Boy
Father: Harry Knapton, Draughtsman (Electrical Engineer)
Mother: Beatrice Maud Knapton formerly Hawley
Informant: Harry Knapton, Father, 36 New Street, Pudsey
(note the different house number to where Dennis was born, they definitely
say 39 and 36 respectively)
Registered: Eleventh July 1921
Registrar: H.Halliday, deputy registrar
(*all* other certs I've seen have said 'Registrar' rather than 'Deputy', so
this is interesting in itself to me :o)
I immediately noticed Harry and Beatrice Knapton here and wondered if he was
related to the Harry Knapton in my tree. At first I discounted it, but then
realised two things: (i) the name Marshall would be something of a coincidence,
and (ii) that Beatrice May Phillips, my great-grandmother and wife of my Harry
Knapton, died in 1912. That means that Harry could easily have re-married to
Beatrice Maud Hawley by 1921. I also know from Harry's marriage to my
great-grandmother that he was a draughtsman. He didn't die until 1953.
I also know he had a prediliction for 'Beatrice M's - he married Beatrice May
Phillips in 1911, and named my grandmother Beatrice Margaret. It wouldn't surprise
me if he later re-married a Beatrice Maud... There seem to be too many
coincidences here to write off - Dennis could be my grandmothers half-brother!

Greville (26/01/2004):
I note you have Ethel KNAPTON married to James PEARSON.
I've got a bit more on them:
His full name is James Overend PEARSON
Children: 1. Emma Overend PEARSON
Married: George Emmanuel MANNING
Children: 1. John Overend MANNING
2. Gordon Overend MANNING
2. John Overend PEARSON
Married: Mabel BOOCOCK
Children: 1. Enid Overend PEARSON
2. Stephen PEARSON
3. James Overend PEARSON
Married: Irene
Children: 1. David
4. Ben Overend PEARSON
Sorry absolutely no dates.
Seem determined to continue the name 'Overend'. Believe it was a distant
maiden name way back -- strongly suspect that 'Marshall' in the KNAPTONs may
be a similar origin.
Nanna Watson [Beatrice <8>] used to visit Emma when she lived in Hounslow.
She used to talk about her house on 'The Great West Road' which, I think would
be the A4.

Greville on Ethel Knapton (09/02/2004) :
Further to my recent email in which I put some GRO Reference details to
Sylvia, Dennis and Phyllis and their families, I have been searching around
on 1837online for Ethel KNAPTON and James PEARSON's family, and am pleased
to pass on the following Registration Details:
Ethel KNAPTON / James Overend PEARSON - m. 2Q 1912, District: N.Bierley,
Vol. 9b Page 44.
Emma Overend PEARSON - birth registered 2Q 1913, N.Bierley, 9b 123.
Married G.E.MANNING - m. 4Q 1939, Brentford, 3a 1435.
Child 1. John Overend MANNING - (Registration shows middle initial as 'S' -
not 'O'??) b. 3Q 1944, Brentford, 3a 376.
Child 2. Gordon Overend MANNING - (Reg. shows middle initial as 'E' or it
might be 'B' - not 'O'??) b. 2Q 1949, Ealing, 5e 245.
John Overend PEARSON - birth registered 3Q 1916, N.Bierley, 9b 115.
Married Mabel BOOCOCK - m. 3Q 1941, Wharfdale, 9a 461.
Child 1. Enid Overend PEARSON - b. 2Q 1942, Wharfdale, 9a 448.
Child 2. Stephen O. (probably Overend?) PEARSON - b. 2Q 1947, Wharfdale,
2d 1129.
James Overend PEARSON - birth registered 3Q 1918, N.Bierley, 9b 96.
Married Irene (HODGSON apparently) - m. 3Q 1941, Leeds, 9b 545.
Child 1. David O. (probably Overend?) PEARSON - b. 3Q 1942, Wharfdale, 9a
276.
Ben Overend PEARSON - birth registered 1Q 1921, N.Bierley, 9b 113.
Notes:
I'm sure I've identified all the correct people in the Index.
Strange that the middle initials of John and Gordon MANNING are not recorded
as 'O' for Overend. It was something I particularly remember my mother
telling me about. The Birth Certificates would confirm.

Greville(26/04/2004) :
Florence never married either [as with Lizzie].
Lizzie and Florence lived together at 'Ellesmere', 12 Old Road, Farsley, and
that's where they brought up my mother (Beatrice Margaret).

JAGO FAMILY CAME TO NEW ZEALAND
Posted by: Sydney Jago (ID *****9665) [jago-syd AT clear.net.nz]
Date: July 20, 2004 at 13:45:31
My Great Grandfather, Sydney James Jago came to NZ from unknown, having been born on Glasgow in 1839,
the son of "Jago" with no first nemes shown and mother Grace Durant (the name Durant carries on
through the family as a first name) - we understand that he had a brother (John Wesley Jago)
born Nailsworth in Gloucestershiore in 1830 who came to NZ in 1862 (Press clipping from Dunedin
shows them as brothers)- his father is recorded as Josias Jago and mother as Grace Rundle -
Josias was a Customs Officer - QUESTION, are these the same mother, as that is all I can now
call on to clarify the facts - HELP PLEASE WITH THIS FROM ANYONE WITH ANY INFO RE THE JAGO FAMILY -
I will be in Cornwall, Nailsworth, Coleford, and Scotland during September 2004 and would like to
follow up on anything worthwhile. Thanks in anticipation, Syd Jago (the 4th consecutive "Sydney"
in NZ) where are the rest ??

From Greville (07/08/2003):
The Certificate for John Marshall Knapton shows
That he was born at Angel Yard, Mercy Street (that will be West Leeds)
And his father was John Knapton (a Spinner) and his mother Hannah Knapton, formerly Wilson.
This confirms the information I had found about John and Hannah Knapton in the 1881 Census
When Grandson Francis (Gladstone) aged 13 was at their house in Bramley.
That also confirms that John Marshall had (at least) two brothers.
From Greville (07/08/2003):
With regards to Gladstone - his is the Certificate that the Registrar did not send.
Reason being that the name of his mother did not correspond to the one (Emma) that was on my application.
This lends to confirm that he was born before John & Emma married.
I am concluding that John was his father - but was John married before?
I rather think he may have been - more detective work.
I'll keep you posted.
The two brothers of John Marshall Knapton are recorded here in the 1881 census as sons of Hannah Wilson <55> and John Knapton <54> :

Family bible [karen] records an Isaac Ross, born 11/06/1838, 11 at night; died 30/01/1911 [bible]
It looks likely that Isaac and Israel are one and the same person, that the name was confused
at some stage in the bible (or Karen read it wrong, she said it was unclear). As for the slight
discrepancy in the date of death, 30th and 13th are easily audibly confused, and there are two votes
(including the death certificate) for the 30th.

See John Knapton <39> for 1891 and 1901 census information.
From Greville (07/08/2003):
With regards to Gladstone - his is the Certificate that the Registrar did not send.
Reason being that the name of his mother did not correspond to the one (Emma) that was on my application.
This lends to confirm that he was born before John & Emma married.
I am concluding that John was his father - but was John married before?
I rather think he may have been - more detective work.
I'll keep you posted.
Greville (18/09/2003):
I also have the Birth cert and Death cert for Hainsworth Ross.
It confirms he was a Boy (remember we couldn't be sure!).
Father: Isaac Ross
Mother: Maria Ross, formerly Hainsworth. (Now there's a surprise!!)
However - the dates don't quite tally with the family bible (Karen's) dates.
Birth cert shows 21st May 1846 - and not 3rd June. (Interestingly the birth was registered on 4th June - perhaps there was a misunderstanding way, way back).
And the Death cert shows 12th May 1861, aged 14 - bible shows right date but 1860 and aged 13 !!!!)
Rather odd.

Greville (06/04/2004) :
With ref to Israel/Isaac Ross
I'm inclined to agree with you that it is one and the same person.
I've searched 1837online and can only find the birth of an Israel in 2nd
Qtr 1838, and only the death of an Israel in 1st Qtr of 1911. No sign of any Isaac!
I've ordered the two certificates. They will confirm we have the right
I.Ross and also confirm the correct date of death.
Will let you know in due course.

Greville (21/04/2004) :
The Birth Certificate of Israel (1838, Qtr Jun, Bradford, Vol.23 Page
123) gives his DOB as 11-Jun-1838 at Farsley and confirms him as son of
Isaac Ross (clothier) and Maria (formerly Hainsworth).
The Death Certificate confirms the date as 30-Jan-1911, aged 72, engine
man at iron forge.

Greville (23/04/2004) :
Hi, Ian
You may already have done some further delving on Israel but please find
below my latest findings just in case some of it is new to you.
1837online shows the marriage of an Israel ROSS in the Oct-Dec qtr of
1858 (Bradford Yk, 9b 182).
YorkshireBMD gives the marriage of Israel ROSS to a Mary VAUTREY at St
Wilfrid's, Calverley, in 1858 (Ref: CE127/H/416).
I believe I have identified him on the 1881 Census at 10 Club Row, Headingley
Cum Burley (RG11 4540/135 Pg13).
He is a lodger, Married, aged 42 (of course), birthplace Farsley, at the
home of a widow, Alice CAWOOD.
I was therefore curious as to the location of his wife who obviously was
still alive as Israel was not recorded as a widower.
The only match for the 1881 Census on Familysearch for a Mary ROSS with
the right criteria is at Kirkstall Road 52 Stansfield Row, Headingley
Cum Burley (RG11 4539/116 Pg27).
The criteria are:
Primarily - she is the only one listed who is Head of a household and,
importantly, Married (not widowed).
She is aged 42 - same as Israel (not that that necessarily matters).
Interestingly her elder son, John, has the middle initial 'V' - could
it be 'Vautrey'??, and is aged 21 which ties in with a marriage in 1858.
Assuming my findings are correct, it raises the question as to why they
were living separately but apparently in the same locality.
Were they separated? Possibly. The 1901 Census might shed some light
on that but I don't have any vouchers at present.
Of course Mary might have died before that Census anyway, or indeed pre-
deceased Israel's death in 1911.
On that point, his Death Certificate shows he died at Back Lane, Horsforth,
and the Informant was a Mary Hardaker, Occupier of Back Lane. Again,
it was apparently not one of his relatives who registered the death!

Hi, Howard. It seems we have a match. I have a William Henry Tordoff who
married Clara Ross,
and where the details I have on their birth and marriage match with the dates on
the website.

thanks for your reply Ian, hope you have visited my site. Unfortunately I am unable to visit yours maybe you could send me a link.
I do family history research as a part time job, after doing my own a couple of years ago. The TORDOFF research is a favour to a friend who babysits my daughter. Her Great Grandfather was William Henry Tordoff, and if you look at the site, I set up for her,Donald Tordoff is her brother and Albert Tordoff - father and so on.
I live in braintree, Essex and have a 2 year old daughter, you can see my OWN site at www.tribalpages.com/tribes/howardmaria
she is very interested in the connection of 'Clara Ross' father - Israel going to the US,and Clara and her mother then being refused entry beyond Ellis Island when they went to join him, this info was given to her when her Grandfather (Maurice), was dying.
please see attached document about the US link.
please let me more more about you and your TORDOFF/ROSS connections
many thanks

Not necessarily him, but it's in the right place - assuming he was likely born

* Additional notes on date of birth and the authenticity of this information:
*
* Dad's info (from the Hodgkins family bible) initially gave a DOB of 05/03/1879
* 1881 and 1901 censusus have age as 6 in 1881, and 26 in 1901,
* consistent with each other but inconsistent with Dad's info.
* These censuses therefore suggested a year of approximately 1875.
*
* I was convinced these censuses referred to the same Annie Cooper, and to the Annie Cooper
* who was the mother of Kathleen Hodgkins. She is recorded in 1881 as being aged 6, born in
* Worcestershire, and having a sister Maria - the only one of her siblings who would have been
* born by then if my belief that Robert Cooper died as a baby is correct.
* A matching Ann Hodgkins is present in the 1901 census, aged 26, also born in Worcestershire,
* with children Albert Hodgkins and Nellie Hodgkins of ages consistent with Kathleen Hodgkins
* siblings, and where Albert (16/09/1898) and Nellie (01/04/1900) were the only children of
* Annie's (see Kathleen <6>) who would have been born by 1901.
* This being the case, this allows Annie's parents to be taken to be James and Elizabeth Cooper,
* and her otherwise unnamed Hodgkins husband to be named as Henry Hodgkins, a coal miner.
*
* What this meant, however, is that the ages given by both censuses make the date of birth
* for Annie given to me by Dad (05/03/1879) incorrect, placing her birth in approximately 1875.
* Maybe Dad had transcribed the bible incorrectly. Maybe the writing in the bible wasn't fully
* legible (a 5 read as a 9 by Dad?). Maybe the date was incorrectly recorded in the bible.
* I, however, am sure these census record do refer to the Annie Cooper I seek and that they
* consistently show a date of about 1875. Annie Coopers birth certificate confirms 1875.
Henry Hodgkins is later traced in the 1881 census as "Employed In Coal Mine" at age 13,
siblings Maria, Arthur and William, and parents Joseph and Georgiana. See Henry <41> for
details.
Henry Hodgkins <41> is recorded on Kathleen Hodgkins <6> birth certificate in 1917 as a
"Colliery Surface Man" (Colliery Surface Manager?). He and Annie <42> were in residence at
4 George Square, Aughton, where Kathleen was born.
Marriage certificate with Henry Hodgkins <41> states she was 22 on 25/12/1897, no occupation specified, living in North Staveley.
It confirms her father was James Cooper <52>. It states James Cooper was deceased.
NB.
On 05/11/1885, a Mr Cooper, probably James Cooper <52>, bought a childs oak coffin.
It is not recorded who it was for. Possibly Lily Cooper, who was born 29/10/1884
and presumably died as a second named Lily Cooper is born 12/06/1889.
On 18/01/1890, a Mrs Cooper, probably Elizabeth Cooper <53> bought a coffin.
It is not recorded who this was for either. Possibly her father?

it is him. The online transcription of the civil registration index

Greville (18/09/2003):
I also have the Birth cert and Death cert for Hainsworth Ross.
It confirms he was a Boy (remember we couldn't be sure!).
Father: Isaac Ross
Mother: Maria Ross, formerly Hainsworth. (Now there's a surprise!!)
However - the dates don't quite tally with the family bible (Karen's) dates.
Birth cert shows 21st May 1846 - and not 3rd June. (Interestingly the birth was registered on 4th June - perhaps there was a misunderstanding way, way back).
And the Death cert shows 12th May 1861, aged 14 - bible shows right date but 1860 and aged 13 !!!!)
Rather odd.

Obituary in newspaper (newspaper unknown, date unknown) :
"Born and bred in Beighton, where she was a keen member of the Parish Church,
Mrs. Hilda Ward (71), of 19, High Street, Beighton, died at her home on
Wednesday after being an in-patient at Sheffield Hospital. She leaves a
widower, Mr. John Ward, four sons and three daughters, and six grand-children.
Mr. Ward has worked as a joiner at Brookhouse Coke Ovens for over 40 years.
The Vicar of Beighton, the Rev. W. G. Potts, will conduct the funeral service
at Beighton Parish Church this morning and interment will then take place
in the church-yard."
[An age of 71 would give a year of death of about 1957. John <45> died in 1968, so he would have survived her as a widower.
Can't yet find any matching death reference in GRO index in years 1956-1958.]

John Wards <7> birth certificate in 1913 says he was born at 85 High Street, Beighton, the
family home of parents John Ward <45> and Hilda Glover <44>. John Ward senior <45> is
described as a "Joiner (Journeyman)".
Bedgreave document (on Williamson and Mary Fairburn) :
"Williamson Glover married Mary Fairburn (Polly) - his cousin. He worked as a corn miller at
Joey Glovers Mill in Beighton (see figs 8 and 10) with his father. Polly's sister Eleanor was married
to the Licensee of the George and Dragon Hotel, Beighton, a Mr Harry Hutton. When they left to take the
Marquis of Granby at Bamford Derbyshire, Williamson and Polly took the 'George' (see fig 11).
They had 3 children, Hilda, Annie and Francis Williamson. Polly reared ponies and showed them locally.
Francis (Frank) used to ride Jonny the grey pony in processions and carnivals in fancy dress at
Whitsuntide in the village. Mr and Mrs Glover used to visit Bedgreave in their pony tub [?] or trap
with a grey horse Birdie. Frank was killed in the 1914-18 war just before the armistice. Hilda Glover
married John Ward a joiner at the 'Salt house' making ammonium sulphate for export during 1914-18 war.
He was an athlete and footballer who lived with relatives in Woodhouse. There is a road named after him."
"When Williamson died Polly kept the 'George'. During the 2nd W.War a land mine dropped near the
railway and River Rother. It blasted the front of the Hotel breaking windows, shredding curtains and
damaging the interior - bottles of spirit were untouched but the shock killed Polly 2 weeks later.
It was said a direct hit on the railway would have wiped out the village. Annie married Mr Purley."
Bedgreave document (on Hilda Glover and John Ward) :
"Hilda Glover married John Ward a joiner at the 'Salt house' making ammonium sulphate
for export during 1914-18 war. He was an athlete and footballer who lived with relatives
in Woodhouse. There is a road named after him."
Hilda's mother was Mary Fairburn <57> who died in 1941.
Father was Williamson Glover <56>, who lived 1861 to 1933.

Bedgreave document (on Hilda Glover and John Ward) :
"Hilda Glover married John Ward a joiner at the 'Salt house' making ammonium sulphate
for export during 1914-18 war. He was an athlete and footballer who lived with relatives
in Woodhouse. There is a road named after him."
I think the road that was aledgedly named after him is John Ward Street, in Woodhouse, South Yorkshire.
It's not far from the River Rother, Woodhouse station, and Woodhouse Mill judging from the map.
It is yet unproven whether it was or was not actually named after him.
Obituary of Hilda Glover <44> in newspaper (newspaper unknown, date unknown) :
"Born and bred in Beighton, where she was a keen member of the Parish Church,
Mrs. Hilda Ward (71), of 19, High Street, Beighton, died at her home on
Wednesday after being an in-patient at Sheffield Hospital. She leaves a
widower, Mr. John Ward, four sons and three daughters, and six grand-children.
Mr. Ward has worked as a joiner at Brookhouse Coke Ovens for over 40 years.
The Vicar of Beighton, the Rev. W. G. Potts, will conduct the funeral service
at Beighton Parish Church this morning and interment will then take place
in the church-yard."
[An age of 71 would give her a year of death of about 1957. John <45> died in 1968, so he would have survived her as a widower.]
--
According to Auntie Hilda <<7>>:
John <45> was born in Derby
Lived near Derby station?
Mother Phoebe Fox <91> (died when he was 2)
Father Arthur <90> (died when he was 5)
Went to derby - something to do with pigs - went to Ireland, mugged on the way home
Phoebe and Arthur wrote a book on Woodhouse
Brought to Beighton to be brought up by his Aunt Eleanor Ward
Eleanor's husband was an Undertaker in Beighton
Had an uncle (brother?) - Bernard Ward? He married a Russian?
--
More from Auntie Hilda <<7>>:
Hilda <7> had an Aunt Bessie who died young
Hilda <7> had an Aunt Tilly (Elizabeth) who lived in Leicester
and who married (after bessie died)
They called her "Mrs Moony" (so married a "Mr Moony"?)
Hilda <7> had an Aunt Fanny who lived at Derby
Eleanor Ward married George Waller
(See Arthur Ward <90> for more from Hilda on Bernard)

--
Hilda <<7>> had said about an Eleanor Ward:
---
John <45> lived with his aunt Eleanor Ward after Phoebe <91> died when John <45> was 2 years old. [Hilda <<7>>]
Lived in Beighton. [Hilda <<7>>]
Married George Waller, an undertaker and joiner in Beighton [Hilda <<7>>]
---
John, it seems did indeed live with George Waller <<68>>, but George was married to Charlotte Ward <68>,
not Eleanor, and Charlotte was not Johns <45> literal 'aunt' but seems to have been Arthurs <90> cousin.
In 1912, Bernard Ward <<90>> wrote a letter (on paper headed "Bernard Ward", "BERNARD WARD, HOG SALESMAN, 26, CHARNWOOD STREET, DERBY.")
dated 12/06/1912 to 'Jack' (actually John <45>).
It contains a statement that 'Jack' is married, and an implication that 'Jack' has a nine month old daughter:
"glad to hear that you are happily married + comfortable.
she is a bonny girl of nine months. should think you are both proud of her"
It refers to an 'Arthur', probably 'Jacks' *brother* (Arthur <<45>>), and _not_ his father.
Implication Arthur worked for Bernard <<90>> before the letter was written
"I am sorry to tell you Arthur has not worked for us some time now."
Implication Arthur was married: "his wife" ie. Arthurs wife
"I understand his wife was very respectable but the last I heard about her
was not much good, I don't know if Arthurs conduct has altered her it may have"
"he has been in jail I think twice in Leicester + whilst he was in I sent his wife 10/ per week"
Arthur was in an accident when young.
"you know when a boy he was nearly killed crushed to pulp + his brain could be
seen through his skull, he was practtically first[?] some as if he had been
through a trample, he know this + still takes drink ..."
Arthur lived in Leicester and Derby, and was frequently drunk (and jailed)
"[Arthur] is alright if he left drink alone
...
I tried Arthur here + he had a season ticket to Leicester
but he kept getting drunk, he ____ abt £11 for 2 pigs[?] got drunk assaulted
ticket collector (of[at?] Derby) was fined + lost the money ___ (I think) 3/10/0
he was very sorry I[+?] promised most faithfully not to take any drink[?] but
be strict T.T. I heard of him in Leicester ten days after being very drunk
but kept him on some months hoping he would alter until I
found him helpless in one of the pig places could not get on his legs,
so I finished with him he has been in jail I think twice in Leicester +
whilst he was in I sent his wife 10/ per week, he looked very bad[?] when
he came out+ I assisted him a little + only a fortnight since my son from
Canada wanted us to take him on again but eldest son said he would
not have it again, + last wed I heard he is in jail again for throwing ___
of water over his mother in law, so he must have started drinking again,
Its a great pity he should never take a drop
...
still takes drink, it sends him mad
...
I should not send [money] to Arthur to be spent in drink
...
I should not send Arthur of your hard
earned money, but if you could get him work away from Leicester
or Derby + keep him T T [?] it might be his last chance, when he left Derby
I thought he was leaving bad company but he got worse once in Leicester a lot
of getting welshers[?] no good to himself[?] or anyone he would be best ___
away from them, he is weak + easily led"
It also mentions "Mrs Waller"
"PS. I did not know where Pasbly[?] was should think he will be alright building
at Aston remember me to Mrs Waller."
This is probably Charlotte Ward who married George Waller.
For a while I had thought John Ward (Bernards nephew) had lived with 'aunt' Eleanor and George Waller,
in which case calling her 'Mrs Waller' and not 'Eleanor' seemed strange.
Charlotte Ward is in fact a more distant member of the Ward clan (if related at all)
and so calling her 'Mrs Waller' makes more sense.

There is no mention of any matching Phoebe Ward aged approx. 39
in the 1891 census, supporting a view that if John was born
after the 1881 census that Phoebe died before the 10 years was up.
The corresponding census entry for Arthur <90> in 1891 is:
Civil parish: St Peters
Municipal borough: Derby
Municipal ward: Castle
Urban sanitary district: Derby
Parliamentary borough or division: Derby
Eccliastical parish or district: St Peters
Address: 52 Liddals Rd

Fanny Ward, Daur, S, 16, General Servant, Derby
Tilly Ward, Daur, , 11, Scholar, Derby
Jack Ward, Son, , 6, Scholar, Derby
It certainly matches the 1881 data closely enough, and is consistent
with Phoebe's <91> death in 1886. "Jack" is in fact John <45>.
The age information for Elizabeth differs between the 1881 and 1891.
In 1901, this is John <45>, living with George Waller and Charlotte Ward :

Beatrice married 10 years later, and died a year later following child birth.
From Greville (07/08/2003):
Interesting information on Beatrice May Phillips -
Born at the Black Bull Inn, Horsforth
Father, George Shillito Phillips, residing at the Inn but occupation is Lithographer
Mother, Mary Grace Phillips, formerly Stead.
VRI gives possible (unconfirmed) Mary Stead:
STEAD, Mary Christening
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 21 Jul 1861 Recorded in: Bolton Percy, Yorkshire, England
Father: Richard STEAD
Mother: Ann
Source: FHL Film 1068315 Dates: 1854 - 1862
The place of birth does not match the census - but the census may be wrong.
There are many other Mary Steads the VRI gives, but this is the only one circa 1862 (+/- 5 years) in Yorkshire.
If valid, then there would seem to be an elder sibling:
STEAD, Samuel Christening
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 27 Nov 1859 Recorded in: Bolton Percy, Yorkshire, England
Father: Richard STEAD
Mother: Ann
Source: FHL Film 1068315 Dates: 1854 - 1862
Bolton Percy is closest to York, but in the vicinity of Leeds (which the census gave as the birth place for Mary).
A man called \Benjamin Stead\ was witness to the marriage of Harry Knapton <30> and Beatrice May Phillips <29>.
Is he possibly related to Mary Stead <47> ?

Confirmed on marriage certificate. Marriage at the Church of St. James in the parish of Ogley Hay, Staffordshire.
Witnesses were Joseph Shaw and Elizabeth Pooley.
Died: c1906 [1901C][1911C]
After 1901 census, and before 1911 census. [1901C][1911C]
GRO possibles:
Joseph Hodgkins, Jul-Sep 1907, aged 69, W. Bromwich, 6b/409 - so born c1838 - NOT THIS ONE
Joseph Hodgkins, Apr-Jun 1908, aged 50, Lichfield, 6b/258 - so born c1858
Joseph Hodgkins, Jan-Mar 1910, aged 76, Witney, 3a/604 - so born c1834
The Jul-Sep 1907 one is most likely as it gives him a birth c1838, and is in Staffordshire - but it's not that one.
The Apr-Jun 1908 is next closest by place (being in Staffordshire), but the Jan-Mar 1910 is next closest by birth date.

Joseph Hodgkins <50> is indicated as a Coal Miner on Henry Hodgkins <41> birth certificate.
He and Georgiana lived in Ogley Hay at the time of registration (27/12/1867).
Marriage certificate (with Joeseph Hodgkins <50>) indicates she lived (age 20) in Hammerwich on 31/05/1862.
No profession or occupation is indicated. It states her father was John Lancashire, a Miner.

Neither could I find her in the GRO indexes on film in the library.
All available evidence (census, marriage certificate, VRI) points to
her birth in 1841-1842. Most likely she is simply missing from the
indexes (errors and omissions like this are not unknown, especially
for people in the early years of the indexes such as in 1841).
Given an exact place of birth (or at least district), you can maybe
pay the GRO £11 for them to search for you. If the census is about right
for the age/year, maybe it can be trusted for the place????

I'm looking for information on Georgiana Lancashire who probably lived in the Staffordshire area (England). She was (probably) born about 1841, and I know she married Joseph Hodgkins in 1862. Her father was John Lancashire, and she had children Henry, Maria, Authur and William. Any help appreciated.

as by 1891 he is absent and wife Elizabeth <53> is recorded as a widow, thus died c1885.

While James Cooper <52> does not appear is this 1851 census - as he likely isn't born yet - it records his father Robert <73>,
mother Ann <74> and what appear to be several of James <52>'s siblings.
It also confirms the possible birth reference for James <52> previously found:
Dec 1852 COOPER, James, Keynsham, 5c/686
The Keynsham district matches the location of the 1851 census data.

Note the absence of James Cooper senior, and Elizabath senior as a widow.
So James Cooper <52> died between 1881 and 1891 - useful to know!
On the previous image - and living on the same street - is a Robert Cooper, age 66,
married to Ann Cooper age 61. Probably the same Robert Cooper <73> who is the
father of Annie's <42> father James Cooper <52>.
On 05/11/1885, a Mr Cooper, probably James Cooper <52>, bought a childs oak coffin.
It is not recorded who it was for. Possibly Lily Cooper, who was born 29/10/1884
and presumably died as a second named Lily Cooper is born 12/06/1889.
On 18/01/1890, a Mrs Cooper, probably Elizabeth Cooper <53> bought a coffin.
It is not recorded who this was for either. Possibly her father?
Marriage certificate of Henry Hodgkins <41> with Annie Cooper <42> states James Cooper <52> as the father of Annie.
It states James Cooper was deceased on 25/12/1897.

An additional one that FreeBMD returned in Gloucestershire, however, is:
Births Jun 1853
Cooper James Stratford 6d _66
(Districts in Gloucestershire, according to http://www.fhsc.org.uk/genuki/REG/gls.htm:
Barton Regis, Bristol, Cheltenham, Chepstow, Chipping Norton, Chipping Sodbury, Cirencester,
Clifton, Dursley, Evesham, Faringdon, Gloucester, Keynsham, Malmesbury, Monmouth, Newent,
Northleach, Ross, Shipston on Stour, Stow on the Wold, Stratford on Avon, Stroud, Tetbury,
Tewkesbury, Thornbury, Westbury on Severn, Wheatenhurst, Winchcombe, Witney, Wycombe.)
These - FreeBMD and 1838online - are consistent with each other.
The census is consistent with the 1852 date.
Assuming the county of Gloucestershire is correct (and if it isn't then there are
positively oooodles of James Coopers it could be) this is most likely him.
The 1851 census further confirms the likelihood of the Keynsham district.

Interred after death at St. Bartholomew's Church, Whittington, Chesterfield, Derbyshire on 14/09/1919 [Piece of cloth in Hodgkins family bible]
(Interestingly, there is also a Whittington near Netherton in Worcestershire, but St. Bartholomew's is at the Whittington near Chesterfield.)
Married to Caroline Garratt (aged 37, born "Nettleton", Worstershire) in 1881.
Children in the 1881:
Elizabeth Garratt, daughter, aged 14, born "Nettleton", Worstershire
Joseph Garratt, son, aged 11, born "Nettleton", Worstershire
Rosehanah(?) Garratt, daughter, aged 9, born "Nettleton", Worstershire
Mark Garratt, son, aged 3, born "Nettleton", Worstershire
From Chris Morris:
"I don't know if you've downloaded the image of Elizabeth Cooper's (nee Garratt) 1881 census entry
but if you have or do then you will find 2 entries on the record of her brother William Garratt
listed as being born in Worcester, "Nettleton" and having a wife named "Charlotte". Firstly there
is no "Nettleton" in Worcestershire (but there are 2 Nethertons, this one and a farming village
at the foot of Breedon Hill) and secondly Williams wife that he married in Netherton was
Caroline Miles. The Charlotte listed in the 1881 census comes from Dudley and is the same age as
Caroline, so I think that the enumerator probably transcribed the original entry incorrectly.
Incidentally I doubt very much that either William or Caroline/Charlotte could write, as both
Benjamin Garratt my g grandfather and his wife Elizabeth Smith completed their marriage entries
with a cross, so errors in the original census entry plus transcription errors could have easily
crept in."

Lilly Cooper, Daur, 1, Yorkshire Aston
Note the absence of James Cooper senior, and Elizabath senior as a widow.
So James Cooper <52> died between 1881 and 1891 - useful to know!
On the previous image - and living on the same street - is a Robert Cooper, age 66,
married to Ann Cooper age 61. Probably the same Robert Cooper <73> who is the
father of Annie's <42> father James Cooper <52>.
On 05/11/1885, a Mr Cooper, probably James Cooper <52>, bought a childs oak coffin.
It is not recorded who it was for. Possibly Lily Cooper, who was born 29/10/1884
and presumably died as a second named Lily Cooper is born 12/06/1889.
On 18/01/1890, a Mrs Cooper, probably Elizabeth Cooper <53> bought a coffin.
It is not recorded who this was for either. Possibly her father?
Search for births for Elizabeth Garrett <53> in Worstershire, born c.1852 (12/02/2004) :
Many Elizabeth Garratts (and Garretts), but only one in Worstershire.
This one, in Dudley.
Dec 1851 GAR/2/10&11 GARRATT, Elizabeth, Dudley, XXIII (XVIII?) / 285(265?)
This agrees with the 1891 census which placed her place of birth squarely in Netherton.
Recall that Ann Coopers <42> birth in Netherton was in the Dudley district.
This is possibly my Elizabeth Garratt.
+--
| UPDATE (09/03/2004) : Got the certificate (ordered 21/02/2004, arrived 09/03/2004),
| and it's NOT my Liz Garratt. The birth cert for Annie Cooper <42> agrees with the
| marriage cert (1q1873, Dudley, 6c/31). The names match, the occupations of James Cooper
| (Miner) match, the dates are consistent.
| Unfortunately that marriage cert does NOT agree with this Elizabeth Garratt birth certificate.
| The marriage gives her father as Mark Garratt, the birth gives Shelah Garratt. The marriage
| gives an age of 20 in 1973. That means she was born in at least 1852, and not 1851.
|
| Also, it's NOT volume 23. What I thought said XXIII actually seems to have been XVIII.
| The cert was delayed and the registrar corrected the volume to 18 (writing TR-1 18 on
| the receipt thingy).

William Garratt
Who fell asleep Sep. 11th, 1919,
Aged 73 Years;
And was interred at St. Bartholomew's Church, Whittington, September 14th.
This William Garratt would have been born c.1846, and matches closely enough the William Garratt in the 1851 census,
and is therefore Elizabeths <53> brother.

From Chris Morris:
"I don't know if you've downloaded the image of Elizabeth Cooper's (nee Garratt) 1881 census entry
but if you have or do then you will find 2 entries on the record of her brother William Garratt
listed as being born in Worcester, "Nettleton" and having a wife named "Charlotte". Firstly there
is no "Nettleton" in Worcestershire (but there are 2 Nethertons, this one and a farming village
at the foot of Breedon Hill) and secondly Williams wife that he married in Netherton was
Caroline Miles. The Charlotte listed in the 1881 census comes from Dudley and is the same age as
Caroline, so I think that the enumerator probably transcribed the original entry incorrectly.
Incidentally I doubt very much that either William or Caroline/Charlotte could write, as both
Benjamin Garratt my g grandfather and his wife Elizabeth Smith completed their marriage entries

From Greville (07/08/2003):
The Certificate for John Marshall Knapton shows
That he was born at Angel Yard, Mercy Street (that will be West Leeds)
And his father was John Knapton (a Spinner) and his mother Hannah Knapton, formerly Wilson.
This confirms the information I had found about John and Hannah Knapton in the 1881 Census
When Grandson Francis (Gladstone) aged 13 was at their house in Bramley.
That also confirms that John Marshall had (at least) two brothers.
Hugh Knapton (02/02/204):
I have now looked at my “Hannah” deaths list, and A-Z’d all the
corresponding birth years, and see that there was a Hannah (born 1821) aged
77 who died 3q1898 at BRAMLEY. There is only one other Hannah death that

"Williamson Glover married Mary Fairburn (Polly) - his cousin. He worked as a corn miller at
Joey Glovers Mill in Beighton (see figs 8 and 10) with his father. Polly's sister Eleanor was married
to the Licensee of the George and Dragon Hotel, Beighton, a Mr Harry Hutton. When they left to take the
Marquis of Granby at Bamford Derbyshire, Williamson and Polly took the 'George' (see fig 11).
They had 3 children, Hilda, Annie and Francis Williamson. Polly reared ponies and showed them locally.
Francis (Frank) used to ride Jonny the grey pony in processions and carnivals in fancy dress at
Whitsuntide in the village. Mr and Mrs Glover used to visit Bedgreave in their pony tub [?] or trap
with a grey horse Birdie. Frank was killed in the 1914-18 war just before the armistice. Hilda Glover
married John Ward a joiner at the 'Salt house' making ammonium sulphate for export during 1914-18 war.
He was an athlete and footballer who lived with relatives in Woodhouse. There is a road named after him."
"When Williamson died Polly kept the 'George'. During the 2nd W.War a land mine dropped near the
railway and River Rother. It blasted the front of the Hotel breaking windows, shredding curtains and
damaging the interior - bottles of spirit were untouched but the shock killed Polly 2 weeks later.
It was said a direct hit on the railway would have wiped out the village. Annie married Mr Purley."
