Hi Phil, Looking back at the 1871 census might be helpful here Green, Mendlesham Jacob Snelling Head wid 69 Ag Lab Mendlesham Mary Ann Snelling Daughter unm 47 Housekeeper Mendlesham Ann Eliza Snelling Granddaughter unm 19 Mendlesham Annie Eliza Snelling married George Osborne in 1872 I would suggest that Eliza Osborne was the illegitimate daughter of Mary Ann Snelling. Mary Ann Snelling did not marry so the 'Unm' is correct. I suspect that Eliza and Mary Ann Snelling are living in separate homes on the corner of Gipping Road and High Road. As for the mother part, it all depends on what the enumerator was told and by whom, for example he could have been told Mary Ann was the mother of the lady next door whose lodging here.

I have sent a copy off list which should resolve the query. Brian

Hi Phil (a name for your people would have helped you know <g>) Re your pages If you check the schedule numbers for the family they are in the same address, my suggestion is the \\ is in the wrong place which the enumerator has attempted to correct with an \ followed by // George, Eliza, Alice & Rosa on schedule 70, Mary Ann SNELLING mother on schedule 71 That could be Mary Ann had a separate room within their house and had a separate schedule or just filled in a separate schedule thinking she/he should There are no addresses given except the road, just schedule numbers I assume the wife of George, Eliza is the Ann Eliza with Mary Ann SNELLING in previous census ? I haven't found a marriage to prove the theory, have you ? The relationship should be mother in law if so but as in many cases the people filling in the schedules wrongly interpreted the rules, which together with other errors from the enumerator trying to transcribe their details often leads to multiple errors creeping in Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hello Folks, I am hoping someone can look at 2 of the 1881 Census pages > RG11/1850F101p11 & p12 > and give me their opinion of the family relationships shown. > The husband bn 1851 and wife bn 1852 are shown on page 11 as living > at Gipping Rd, Old Newton, and > two of their children Alice & Rosa on page 12 without an address. > They are followed by Mary Ann Snelling, > listed as mother , Lodger, Unm, with an address of High Rd.

Hello Folks, I am hoping someone can look at 2 of the 1881 Census pages RG11/1850F101p11 & p12 and give me their opinion of the family relationships shown. The husband bn 1851 and wife bn 1852 are shown on page 11 as living at Gipping Rd, Old Newton, and two of their children Alice & Rosa on page 12 without an address. They are followed by Mary Ann Snelling, listed as mother , Lodger, Unm, with an address of High Rd.

Today is the anniversary of my father's (KENNETH GEORGE FINCH) birth. Born on this day in 1905 at 9 Gibbon Street Ipswich the youngest son of James Rumsey and Mary (nee LING) Finch.

Goodmorning Suffolk Listers, Researching F.H. for a sister-in-Law in Kent and given to understand there are members of Newstead families in Suffolk with some same names on their trees, which means distant cousins. My S-in-L's fathers name was LEONARD NEWSTEAD and I have been tracking this line down only at present, getting stuck around mid 1700 where it looks like either faded writing or damage to the register as little more appears. Other names are William Alfred NEWSTEAD whose first marriage as I have discovered was to a Lilly Mona HAWTIN of Ipswich in 1901 but she died 1902 in Kent Another member is George William NEWSTEAD ..... Thus if this sounds familiar to anyone out there would welcome hearing from you. With thanks. Renee Oz

Hello, This is my first posting to this mailing list as I am in the early stages of researching Robert REEVE born Lowestoft who may prove to be an ancestor of my husband. I am hoping that someone on this list may be able to help me prove that he is the father of Ada REEVES who appears orphaned in London in 1891. Robert REEVES, Seaman, Merchant Service, deceased is the father named on her marriage certificate. Her father may have been the Robert REEVE, Mate on a vessel called 'Unrivalled' which was lost on or about 24th October 1882 and all the crew drowned. This Robert REEVE may be the same Robert REEVE, a fisherman who appears in the 1881 census at 20 North Raglan Street, Lowestoft (RG11/1904 Folio 129) with his wife, son and in-laws. According to FreeBMD the couple had a son Robert William whose birth was registered in the Sep 1/4 1879 and a daughter called Ada Maud M whose birth was registered in the Jun 1/4 1882. The death of the mother, Alice was registered in the Sep 1/4 of 1890 Is it possible that a charitable organisation such as the Lowestoft Fishermens' and Seafarers' Benevolent Society, in existence from 1879 I believe, could have provided the widow Alice with assistance and following her death have arranged for Ada to enter the certified training home at 24 Argyle Road, Castle Hill, Ealing where my husband's ancestor was an inmate in 1891? If so would there be any records in existence to show this? To quote from the information I have gleaned about this home the object was: "To give a happy home-life and a thoroughly good training in domestic service to orphans whose parents did not belong to the pauper class, but who would otherwise be brought up in workhouse schools." The proprietor, Mary E Mayo, single and of independent means was the daughter of Herbert Mayo, in 1861 described as "Retired Colonial Broker, Fundholder, Proprietor of houses and shares in public companies". He had an estate in Antigua too apparently. Any help or advice with this would be much appreciated. Regards, Margaret North Preston, Lancashire.
