Re: Finding Twins

 

It appears she was with her mother Emma Jane and her husband Benjamin CARLING (married 1894) on 1901 census



Can't find her registered as CARLING or YOUNG.

Re: Finding Twins

Not always!!? Many years ago a young lady from Somerset ended up in Kent working at a school. She had twins, a boy and a girl, the father was the head master.? She kept the girl and had her registered in the district where she was living.? The father took the boy and registered him in another district and in the following quarter.? He then had the boy adopted.? All would have been well until by chance, when the children grew up, they happened to be with friends in a pub.? The girl had always been told she had a twin.? A discussion started and the twins suddenly realised they must be related.? DNA eventually proved they were right.? It took some time to work out what their father had done. He firmly believed by registering the boy in a different registration district with different quarters, they would never find each other.

The number of times I've found girls giving false names when registering births. A young girl gave birth in Long Ashton (just outside Bristol) in the Work House. Her mother had an upmarket guest house in Clifton, Bristol.? She didn't want it known that her daughter was having an illegimate child so they decided to "invent" a surname. They chose the name of a village in Scotland where both mother and daughter came from - Fintr(a)y.? Mother wanted to adopt her granddaughter but she didn't have a husband. No problem, she went to another workhouse and took an old man called SHEARN and married him, he was 75 and she was over 50. They adopted her baby granddaughter. As it was 1895 there was no legitimate adoption. Sadly, the old gentleman died a couple of years later and the gran died when the child was 7.? She had been left enough money but the child's real mother took the money and put the child back in a workhouse.? I met the little child's daughter who had been told that if anyone could find the truth, it was me!!? She was a lovely lady living in an Alms house in Paul, Cornwall.? It was a real pleasure to help her and then to find that she was a 1x3 cousin of my ganddaughter was an added bonus. She sadly died in 2012.

Twins would usually have the same reference in the GRO index ie on the same page but not always

There was no official adoption until 1927 so the chances are that a dna test is the most likely way forward

Have you found her in the census? so have a birthplace?

Re: Finding Twins

 

In many cases the adopted child was the child of a relative, first names could be changed but often weren't

Are you sure Rose Ann isn't the daughter of Emma before marriage?

Subject: [yorksgen] Nathan CANSICK - Richmond Goal, 1801

Evening all,

I have found 3 references in the London Gazette to Nathan CANSICK in goal in Richmond in 1801.

The London Gazette, 14 July 1801 (Issue 15386, page 865) "Prisoners in the Gaol of the Chief Bailiff of the Liberty and Franchise of RICHMOND and RICHMONDSHIRE, in the North Riding of the County of York First Notice Nathan CANSICK, formerly of Dalton-on-Tees, and late of Barningham, in the North Riding of Yorkshire, Wood-Cutter"

The second notice was in the paper in the 18 July; and the third on the 21st. All 3 notices had identical wording except for the words - first, second and third.

Questions:
What had be (allegedly) been up to?
What do the 1st, 2nd and 3rd notice mean?

I have looked at the newspapers on FMP but can't find anything other than a repeat of these notices in other papers.
I've also looked at the Quarter Session Records for Yorkshire on Ancestry.

Any ideas?

Thank you,

Rosemary

I will be in Hull next week and was going to get a grave photo from 461 so I can wander over to see if there is a headstone.

Re: Hull Burial Registers

 

Hi Keith

I have no idea about a headstone I'm afraid.

Yes pages 368 are both blank which is odd.

I think the best action will be for me to ask Northern Cemetery direct.

Lin


Re: Hull Burial Registers

 

Hello Lin,

I found a page for 368 but there are no entries on it. The same blank page is a couple of images later.



Is there a headstone?
