I bet that could be my Jessie in the home in 1901 in Essex as that is where her grandparents lived. Henry and Kitty Moss. We are almost certain it would have to be a relative and also her older brother did live with them til he went into the merchant navy. I should also check and see if she could be with her Uncles in Essex, James, Henry,Frederick, John or Edward. Thank you so much for all of your help. I really do appreciate it.

There were 5 births of "Jessie MOSS" registered in Warwickshire in the 1891-1901: 1892 Dec Q - Birmingham 6d 29 [Jessie Emily] 1895 Jun Q - Warwick 6d 627 [Jessie Florence] 1897 Mar Q - Birmingham 6d 170 ) 1898 Jun Q - Birmingham 6d 98 ) [all as Jessie] 1899 Dec Q - Aston -6d 461 ) Only Jessie Florence would fit a birthplace in Leamington - she would seem to be the right one, but the certificate would be needed to confirm her parents. I don't believe that the HANNON Grand-daughter is likely to be her, as her grandparents would seem to be MOSS or LAWRENCE. Furthermore, her age is understated, and her birthplace incorrect - although those frequently occur in Censuses. However... The 1901 lists 3 Jessie MOSSes born 1891-1901 residing in WAR: The 4-year-old grand-daughter - born Birmingham A 2-year-old, with parents John & Charlotte - born Birmingham A 1-year-old, with parents Andrew & Mary Jane - born Sutton Coldfield [which was in Aston District] These seem to match far better the 3 youngest of the births listed above. Furthermore, the 1901 also lists - as an "Inmate" of a Home run by the NSPCC in Essex - a 5-year-old Jessie MOSS of "unknown" birthplace. [She was one of 19 girls aged 5-14, and 10 boys 5-10]. RG13/1724/21/19 - Church Street, Great Coggeshall. This would seem to fit not-too-badly with the reported sighting of her "in London" by her brother Stanley, but of course can't be certain unless the NSPCC still hold her details and is willing to release them to a relative.

Hi Peter I have come across several instances of ancestors being married by licence rather than banns, and none of my family were wealthy. The best you could describe them as would be tradesmen, and even then, that is later on in the nineteenth century. Gus Tysoe found one for me at Worcester Records Office (my chap married for the second time at Rowington, but normally lived at Budbrooke), and as far as I can tell, this particular line of the family were only ag labs. Certainly his descendants were living in some very primitive cottages in Kenilworth at the beginning of the nineteenth century. You should check out the marriage records - you may be surprised. Also, saw you comment about missing baptisms in Great Alne. Is it possible the family moved away for a while? For that period, I would examine land tax records as well as other surviving documentation in the parish chest, such as we discussed earlier. Did the family flirt with non-conformism? Maybe a change of Anglican priest led the family to change allegiance if they stayed in the parish. Or if they moved, have you cast your net wider, looking at contiguous parishes for possible sightings? The ancestors may not have moved about that much, but we shouldn't view them as being totally static. I have other rural ancestors from the Devon/Somerset boundary area, and they seem to move about three miles one way or five miles another. One family live in one parish, but still have family at the old one, and key events such as baptisms and burials take place in the old parish, probably because it is technically nearer due to the geography and location of the parish church. Hope that gives folks some ideas - thinking outside the box so to speak.

Thank you Gus, I do have so much info on the families from my grandfather Frederick L. Moss b in Canning. Ya see I am almost 80 so I did know him. also his son, my uncle Fred, jr did genealogy and even so far as go to England to search. I went to his home and had pictures of so many and so much info on the Lawrence side and I found from some of the letters my grandfather had recieve after he joined the merchant navy and jumped ship in Nova Scotia, from his grandmother with whom he did live with. But my uncle thought that was his mother's writing, but old Kilita had drown her before the letters came. I have the inquiry/court report that was in the Leamington Courier and boy what a liar and drunk he was. those were my grandfather's words. the old man used to beat on them all including his wife and that is why my grandfather left home and the girls put into the workhouse, Stanley out on his own and baby Jessie was put with relatives and the Hannon's as we have no Hannon's on either side of the family and none born in Scotland. Thank you.

Have you tried using the General Register Office Indexes of Births, Marriages and Deaths to trace the family members? These can be searched for free at < http://www.freebmd.org.uk/ >. A mild word of warning here - the Places named in the indexes are 'Registration Districts' which don't necessarily match those of the places where the events occurred. For example Leamington was in Warwick District and Canning Town in West Ham. Having found Frederick's birth you can use the reference to purchase a copy of his birth certificate - can be done online with most credit cards at < http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/ > which will give his mother's maiden name and other quite useful bits of information - hopefully including his father's true forename. I'd add to Gilly's posting that the 1881 entry doesn't merely include Fred and his grandfather, but also his parents, grandmother, several uncles, and an aunt. 2 other comments... The baby in 1891 evidently wasn't Mabel W, but was more likely unregistered at the time - and became Ethel W - for Mabel wasn't born for around another couple of years. "Something" evidently occurred in the lateish 1890s, for in 1901 Kate, 11; Ethel, 10; and Mabel, 8 were all in the Warwick Union Workhouse as "paupers", while Lily, 13, was a living-in servant in Leamington.

Hello Anne, ----- Original Message ----- From: "A P L" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 06, 2010 10:19 AM Subject: Re: [WAR] What records are available in Warwickshire > Am not sure whether you are new to Warwickshire or just looking for new > avenues of research in this beautiful county. In my case it is probably the latter - my dad grew up in Coventry, so I was fairly frequent visitor whilst his family there were still alive, and I have been a fairly frequent visitor more recently to do family history, however, I am not local (I live in Suffolk). Usually when I can get sufficient time off work I come up for a few days, maybe going to Warwick for a day and Birmingham library for a couple of days and a couple of other places depending on where I have most outstanding look-ups that I want to do. I am sufficinetly far away that I need to plan ahead to make best use of my time and I tend to use record offices rather than libraries because you get a good concentration of resources at the record offices. Part of the reason for asking the question however was because things were so quiet of late (seven messages in May and nothing in June before I posted) I thought in my role as list-admin I ought to try to generate some discussion on a topic that might be useful to all listmembers - and of course we have a wide selection here, some local, some like myself living elsewhere in the country and some overseas who might be able to get to Warwickshire once in a lifetime if they are lucky - and I hoped maybe any discussion of this topic could come up with some new ideas for list-members wherever they live. The specific brick wall I had in mind when I posted was Sarah Edwards who was born c.1803 in Great Alne. She married Thomas Hall in Birmingham St Martin in 1825 and one of the witnesses was an Alice Edwards. I wonder whether Alice might be the one baptised in Great Alne in 1798 daughter of George and Elizabeth Edwards. There is a gap in Edwards' baptisms in Great Alne between 1800 and 1805 and there is also a George and Elizabeth and a George and Mary as follows: George & Elizabeth 1 (probably Elizabeth Taylor m. Great Alne 5 Jan 1792) Children Mary (1792), Hannah (1794) Elizabeth (1796) Alice (1798) George & Mary Children Thomas (1800), Dinah (1805) George & Elizabeth 2 Child Ann (1808). I believe the George married to Mary and Elizabeth 2 was the same George - a shoemaker (c.1765-1845) and Elizabeth 2 lived c.1771-1858, and according to the 1851 census she was born in Buckley Green. I actually wonder given the absense of burials and marriages whether all three families are the same and Elizabeth 1 and Elizabeth 2 are the same person whilst the "Mary" in the 1800 and 1805 entries was an aberration and I wondered whether there were clues to be found in other resources which might tell me more about the movements of the Edwards' family.

The reason he was living with his grandfather in 1881 was that his mother received an inheritance and then the trouble began. Before that they were living in from what I have been told, in a beautiful home and he had a nanny, pony and cart and bunnies in his room. Then Ellen and Kilita (this is the correct spelling and his real name was William after his grandftather) started to drink. they lost everything and when Gramps was 10 they were living in Leamington when his brother Stanley was born and the rest of the kids. Then (and I have the newspaper clipping) Kilita drown Ellen in the river in Leamington and tried to tell the court that she was alcholic and probably fell in and drown herself. But my grandfather said that was not true. they had been fighting he she ran to a neighbors and he followed and somehow got her to the river. He got off scott free, but did end up in the loony bin!! I do know that baby Jessie was living in London from a letter from Stanley to my grandfather, saying he saw her there but didn't approach her as being only abt 5 years old when her mother died she probably didn't know about her parents or siblings. She is mainly one that we would like to find just in case she does know. I think the rest may have all died, but the girls did marry and I am sure there has to be some of them around. We did find that Ethel married in 1919 to William R. Murcott he was b 1886 in Leamington Spa to William S. Murcott b 1857 in Bubbington and Mary Ann b 1865 in Kenilworth and his brothers were Thomas H b 1888 and James b 1890 in Cubbington. this I got today from the 1891 census Ellen m a Corbett and Mabel m a Fields. this I got from their sister Lillian b 1888 who came to Canton, Ma. USA after brother Frederick joined the Merchant Navy and served on the Proserpine. I do have more copies of letters to Grampie but not much else on the girls Henry's parents were William Moss and Dorinda Chatfield, don't know where she came from but she is buried 4 Aug 1833 age 25 St. Dunston, Cheam, England b 1801? they were married in 1825. I have all of their children and Henry and Kitty Kilby Moss Henry and Kitty's dau was a professionl musician and singer but don't think that lasted too long as she married Robert Ratcliff and had 3 dua's then she divorced him and marrie a Charles Hubbard. I do have the Moss family back1745 in East Ham and practically all of them were farriers and Henry was a veternarian surgeon. Only my ggrandfather Kilitia was the slouch and tried not to work so Grampie said. LOL Ok a bit more and I am done the Ellen 11, Ethel 10, Mabel 8 and Lillian 13, in 1901 were in a Workhouse census at 41 Champion Terrace Nothing about baby Jessie who was then about 5 years old. Someone emailed me and said she was living with her grandparents the Homan's but we have no Homan's in either side of the families. Sorry to be tearing your eyes out but wanted to let you know what I had and from who. I do have a gal who is a cousin some how through the Moss side but has tried to find Jessie. She loves in England somewhere. I so appreciate what you have sent me. I tried going into a site for a later census but they wanted me to pay and being 80 yrs old that is impossible. thank you so much, if only I could find some of the living kids.

The Warwickshire Record Office has an expanding catalogue online called Warwickshire's Past unlocked. Although there are some specific databases that have been catalogued by volunteers, such as the Calendar of Prisoners, the Tithe apportionments and the Victualler's Recognizances, you can also search for other information, such as militia records in Warwickshire. http://archivesunlocked.warwickshire.gov.uk/ Apart from the record office search engine, I also use the Access to Archives one hosted by TNA. This can sometimes throw up records at other repositories besides the county record office. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/ As to your comment about removal orders and settlement certificates/examinations, if a person married by licence rather than banns, this can also give you a clue to look elsewhere if you have exhausted the records in the parish where you thought the ancestors were based. The licence may not have survived, but the bonds seem to have a better survival rate. For militia and muster rolls, and other specialist data, I would also recommend you visit your local studies library or purchase the excellent Gibson guides on the various subjects. They give a more detailed breakdown of what is available for each county and the location of the records.
