Who is Mrs Critchard? published by Pat Hase - 1 years 2 months 13 days ago. | | Although the GRO Index does not give a mother's maiden name FreeBMD does give one for a Thomas B LEWIS whose birth was registered in Bridgend in 1927 - It was GRIFFITHS. This would seem to infer that a male LEWIS married a female GRIFFITHS before 1927. | |
Hubert STOKES son of Charles STOKES of Portbury and Wraxall published by zumrob - 1 years 2 months 14 days ago. | | Any time Pat. By the way noticed that both Charles Marmadukes were buried at Key Hill.
One last bit I do not understand. On the second school record H*bert is "Re-admitted" to the school in June 1890. On the first he left on 8-Feb-1889 "Gone to South Wales". This is after his father re-married (as we have subsequently found out). Where was he for that 15 months? (I originally presumed his father was working in Wales - but probably not the case now). Who did he go to live with in Wales? - or should that be "New South Wales" in which case there should be even more passenger lists (which I have not found any of) knocking around.
I'll leave that one with you... | |
Hubert STOKES son of Charles STOKES of Portbury and Wraxall published by Pat Hase - 1 years 2 months 14 days ago. | | Fantastic work! Apart from helping me with my STOKES research you have also proved that all those Ancestry Trees which give the death of Charles STOKES in 1923 are incorrect! That death certificate arrived this morning and it was, as I suspected, the death of a Charles STOKES who was married to an Elizabeth and from the censuses had children at the same time as my Charles. It was interesting to see that Charles was working as a warder in a gaol presumably in Parramatta. Being a ex-policeman that seems a logical employment.
I had found a death in 1936 in Brisbane on the Trove Site (Australian Newspapers) for a Hubert STOKES with widow Laura so that ties in.
I'm really grateful for your help - a second brain is so useful as trying to research alone often leads you along the same path and you miss things - like the Wraxall School Records! Many thanks. | |
