Title: Any information on HENRY KERRIDGE
Post by: m4uke on Wednesday 22 March 06 18:20 GMT (UK)
Hi

I am looking for any information on Henry Kerridge who was born and bred in Shenley around the 1770's.  I know he married Catherine Bond and I believe that the date of this is November 1790.

He had children but I can only find one being George who married Maria Lemon of the famous Lemon family.  Her brother Mark set up and was the first editor of Punch Magazine.

Thats all i know and I am stuck.

I am a direct descendant of Henry and would like to contnue the tree back.

Thanks to anyone who can help....

The IGI has only a church member's submission about a George Kerridge and often such submissions can be highly dubious.

George Kerridge 
Spouse:  Maria Lemon 
Marriage:  1811   Hendon, London

George Kerridge 
Birth:  1791   Of, Hendon, London

Whereas the Kerridge family I have listed from the IGI and church records were in Westminster.

Mark Lemon's baptism was also in London

MARK LEMON 
Birth:  30 NOV 1809   
Christening:  30 DEC 1809   Saint Mary-St Marylebone Road, Saint Marylebone, London
Father:  MARTIN LEMON 
Mother:  ALICE 

There is on the 1851 census a Kerridge born Hendon (parish records not on the IGI)

HO107 1496 folio 907
Little George Street St Pancras  Middlesex 
Henry Kerridge 39  Hendon, Middlesex, Head Married Journeyman tailor
Rachel Kerridge 23  Shenley, Hertfordshire, Wife Married
Rachel Kerridge 6 mths  Middlesex,  Daughter 

Mark Kerridge aged 36 born Hendon appears on the 1861 census.

The London Metropolitan Archives will have the Hendon parish registers, though local studies libraries such as Barnet's will have the registers on microfilm.

Hi Valda

I have a lot of the family born in Hendon but the family story is that they were from Central London.

There has been a lot of confusion because Hendon is sometimes listed as London and sometimes Middlesex. 

This info is greatly appreciated as it confirms some that I have especially with the new stuff you gave me earlier.  I need to research the parish records to find Henry's parents

Thank you Jo.  Henry was an actor so may not be the same one but the first son Henry was Henry William so may be he changed his occupation later.  :-\ Catherine's father was an opera singer.

Noting the earlier post by Meg re the piece by Ursula BULL in NW Kent FHS; I had the great fortune to correspond with Ursula for many years and met with her and some of her family.  Sadly she died in 2005.    I am familiar with the Hendon Kerridge family, and the huge amount of work done by Ursula on tracking back - Kerridges, Judds and Griffiths - and am sure that we were not able to take it any further back than George K marrying Maria LEMON.  Of course, many records are more easily available now than 10-15 years ago, so am not saying that it is impossible and would love to hear more.  I have kept pretty much all the correspondence I had with ursula, and happy to review and share what I can if it will help someone.

Although I proudly bear the Kerridge surname, I am not as far as I know, related to this line

Hi Andy,

The Kerridge line and the Bond line are pretty well stuck. I understood Henry was an actor but it seems not.  (I will check that ref. as it might say Mr Kerriage and I thought it was Catherine's Henry.) I can probably get my hands on the article mentioned above and I take the point that Hendon and Mdx and London are all possibly the same place.  I might have another look at them all - problem is I really can't find many of the other children doing anything. There is a George James John Bond nephew of Catherine so maybe the George who mar. Maria Lemon does belong to that family. I guess as I am missing children and the ones found in a previous post here as I said don't seem to do anything like marry.  If there is anything in the information you have that seems to relate to Catherine and Henry I would appreciate it please.

All I really know about the Bond family is John, Rebecca and Catherine were born to some people.  John mar. Jane Daniel who could write (he couldn't) my line, Rebecca mar (there is a Bond for the marriage and one of her daughters was witness at my ancestor John Bond's marriage in 1810) and Catherine. Catherine was present at her nephew George James John Bond's birth.  Not much to go on but they all have two and three names in the Kerridge family.  I think the Swell is actually Snell as she marries and it is recorded as Snell on the children's births.  I have no idea where the names comes from.

Not sure if you can make anything out of any of this  :)

Meg.

Meg

I will lay out what I have on the Henry = Catherine BOND family and see if there is anything new or that you disagree with.  I concur with you on Snell instead of Swell

Henry KERRIDGE married Catherine BOND 8 Nov 1790 at London St Clement Danes.  The marriage was by licence.
Catherine BOND was bc 1771 and was buried 25 Sep 1829 at St Gregory by St Paul. 
Henry then married Lucy POWELL, a widow, 21 Aug 1830 at St Marylebone All Souls.  This marriage was also by licence (Vic-Gen M Lic 18 Aug)
Lucy was born c1793 and was buried at Norwood Cemetery 29 Nov 1878
Henry was buried 7 Feb 1839 at St Gregory by St Paul.
Henry was a ham dealer between 1816 and 1829 and a ward beadle in St Gregory by St Paul in 1833. 
By Catherine:
•   Sophia Maria Snell; bp 5 Apr 1791 Covent Gdn St Paul; married 10 Apr 1825 at St Gregory by St Paul to Nathan MARTINDALE of St George, single, by license:  Witnesses: Henry & Emma KERRIDGE
•   Henry William; bp 21 Dec 1793 St Clement Danes – no further info, assume died young
•   Henry Bond ; bp 10 Mar 1799, St Martin Ludgate; married 9 Nov 1823 at St Giles Cripplegate to Louisa OLIFF, otp, spinster.  He was buried 3 Mar 1825 St Gregory by St Paul.  One child – Louisa Henryetta
•   Emma Jane: born 08 Mar 1803, bp 12 Jun 1803 St G by St P. No further info.
•   Edwin Moore: born 18 Jun 1804; bp 29 Jan 1809 St G by St P.  Married in 1840’s to Anne WILLOCK, and appears to have gone to Jamaica as a planter – was there in 1850 – had children: Edwin Gustain, Charlotte Heming.
•   Eliza Susannah, born 24 Jan 1806, bp 16 Mar 1806 St G by St P, no further info.
•   Charles Robert: born 14 Dec 1808, bp 29 Jan 1809 St G by St P.  Bur 25 Jun 1811.
•   Charles: born 14 May 1812; bp 31 Mar 1816, St G by St P; no further info.
•   David: A possible son, he was noted in 1829 as being an apprentice to his father (un-named, a ham dealer)
There are the 3 children, all baptised the same day where the father is identified as Henry Gallant KERRIDGE
•   William: Born 25 Dec 1800, bp 7 Oct 1810, St G by St P.  May be same as William Greenleaf K who appears in 1851 census as a porter in Holborn.  Married twice, firstly to Elizabeth, & then in 1846 in Whitechapel to Charlotte WARNER. He had at least 3 children.  He died May 1851 & buried at St Andrew Holborn
•   Caroline: born 24 May 1807, bp 7 Oct 1810 St G by St P, bur 5 Mar 1811
•   Donald McDonald: Born 18 Jun 1810, bp 7 Oct 1810 St G by St P.  Married 12 Nov 1835 to Letitia Theresa BAKER at St James’ Clerkenwell (she was bc 1819, Yarmouth, died 1888 in W Ham Reg District, buried Abney Park 26 Apr).  He died 7 Oct 1874 in Islington.  He was a comedian & vocalist in 1851, & director of Raglan Musical Hall.  They had 5 children I think.

I have no record anywhere else of a Henry Gallant KERRIDGE and the use of middle names was not common at this time – maybe 1 in 20 to 1 in 30 in my KERRIDGE database in the 1770-1780’s.  In most cases the middle name is a surname carried over from a previous generation – as in Henry Bond KERRIDGE.  I have a marriage of an Ann KERRIDGE to an Edward GALLANT in 1722 in Yoxford, but no reason to suspect a connection.                                       

By Lucy
•   Lucy: Born 20 Jun 1833, bp 17 Jul 1833, St Gregory by St Paul.  Married 10 Jan 1856 at Marylebone St Mary to Rollaston William George CATHCART, who was a comedian in 1861, but died pre-1871.  They had 6 children
•   Georgina:  Born 24 Oct 1835, bp 21 Nov 1835 St Gregory by St Paul – married 21 Aug 1858 at St Pancras Old Church to John Frederick VERRALL (1836-1877).  She died 15 Mar 1894 in Hampstead.  They had 5 children

I note the entry by Jo McD (#7) of Henry KERRIDGE, son of William KERRIDGE of Ipswich, Suffolk, admitted to the Company of Barbers 15 Jan 1799.  I note also from the website of the Company of Barbers that from 1745 “the Barbers' influence in their own trade grew less as time went on and membership became diffuse, men of many professions joining with only a slight interest in barbery. The Company's control over the barber trade became virtually non-existent. Today the Company has little connection with the trade”.  So the fact that Henry was a ham dealer at least between from 1816-1829 would not preclude him being a member of the Barbers Company. 

So, hoping this might have something new or different.

Best regards

Andy

Hi Andy,

Thank you; it all certainly looks correct.  I love your comment about second names not being common - try researching this lot.  ::).

All I can really add is 5 Dec 1807 they lived at 16 London House Yard, St Pauls.  It certainly looks like Henry and Henry Gallant are the same person with the son William and unless Henry Bond Kerridge was born in say 1797 there was possibly another child in the gap.

The two children (there are wills etc. to prove the surviving children) in Rachel's family that had second names were James Wood who did not survive and Anna Maria Bond who was the witness at my John Bond and Sarah's marriage in 1810. In the Bond family there is son George James John and later on in life my John added Henry as a second name.  The only surviving dau. was Jane Elizabeth.  I guess with Henry Bond Kerridge being a collecting clerk for a music publishing firm and a Mr Kerridge listed in London musicians, actors directory I thought that Catherine had married within the profession.  (John Bond's wife Jane Daniel was a hairdresser/wig dresser.)

I will try to find Henry's birth in Suffolk and thus get his mother's maiden name if possible. Not really sure where to go from here.  There is a website about the Bond family based on research done in the 1950s but the origins are all totally wrong.  It is our family but it has been linked into another one which would be nice but Thomas Chitty and the East India Company and Mr Snell head of the Bank in London are a long way from the opera singer, organ and double bass players in our family.  :D

Hi Andy,

Not sure if this is your family or not but I decided if I am going to get anywhere with my Bond family I am better to work on the family that had the most children.  Emma Jane (as Emma) was witness to Sophia's marriage so could she be the Emma bur. 28.2.1830 St Andrew Undershaft?

The Jamaica family.  No image for Edwin Gustain but I think he is Edward Graham who had Edwin Alexander (Alice in the index) b April 1861 Chr 4.12.1861 and Adelaide Ann b Aug 1863 Chr 23.9.1863.  He had another child (not married to the mother) in 1874.  Apart from the Charlotte Heming Edwin had Mary Ann Graham 1843 and Henry Bond 1847.  Both Chr 15.1.1851.  Henry died in 1880 and Adelaide was present at his death.  Later she says her father is old (86) and mar when he dies in 1911. In 1909 aged 63 he mar a 28 year old said his father was Edwin Moore and he was a batch.  There is an Edwin (Edwin Alex?) having children with Caroline Porter. My only real problem is there is a Rebecca Moore b. 27.2.1856 Chr 26.4.1857 and like Edwin Alex and Adelaide Ann no parents are listed.  If she is Edward's dau he would be 16.  Wonder if he was born in say 1838 Chr in Jan 1840 or if Rebecca Moore is a late child of Edwin Moore.  Hope you can help.

No not my family, but one I picked up along the way out of interest. 
I have tried to answer your specific points ...

Andy: I tend to agree, as I am not aware of any other K’s on the island at the time

Andy:  I have Rebecca as a dau of Edwin Moore and Anne, however, I am unsure of where I got that parentage from.  Do you  have any idea of Anne WILLOCK's birth year?  She may well have been a few years younger than Edwin.   

I am not sure of the completeness of the records in Jamaica, - whether they were completed rigorously, and also survival.  I just get the sense that we only have a partial picture - still better than none!

I have been trying to find if Jamaica had censuses at this time, and struggling.  The following website appears to have some info on other potential sources, but at a price

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your reply.  There is an Anne Wilcock(s) Chr 18.4.1820 Trelawny, Cornwall, Jamaica.  Again no parents.  There seem to be a few Wilcocks there but that is the only Anne.  OK so I need to look for another Emma Kerridge.  (There is an unnamed male 1846 to a William Kerridge and Justina Wall in Jamaica.) I think the Bond father could be Charles as John and Jane had one and Catherine had two.  There is one with an Ann that seems to have two children in the right area but no more details - he would have to be a brother of John, Rebecca and Catherine.  Not sure I will ever solve this one.  Daniel is supposed to be the father of Jane Daniel and he was Danish.  No Daniels anywhere except Donald who can be Daniel in Scotland.  Given the Bond family later on opened a book and picked the first name they saw and named the child that I am tending to think that maybe they did this more than once.  Greenleaf does not seem to exist (could be Greenlees) as a surname so if William Kerridge did survive and that was his second name I have no idea where it came from.

Any way I do have a few things I can check up on now.  It maybe that the previous Bond generation were not using the established church and the records for where they were attending have been lost. The Bond family did add Frederick in later generations and I would have expected George Kerridge in there somewhere. They also added a surname as a second name of a friend.

Meg.

Hi Andy,

Remember Emma Jane who you said died as a child? Well I went looking for the one that was witness to the marriage and she didn't die as a child.  Emma Jane mar. Henry Hemming comedian (later something else but I can't read it).  They had lots of children who were orphaned when he died in 1848 and he in 1849.  Guess that is one of the middle names accounted for.  If you have time and you have them could I have the children of William Greenleaf Kerridge please?  Henry Bond Kerridge's Freedom to the city of London as a cook? had a Jno? Swell as a witness. I wonder if it is Swell and not Snell.  ???

I believe William G married twice - his first wife being an Elizabeth BLACKBURN who he seems to have married in Sept or Oct 1825 - I have found the banns, but not the actual marriage entry. 

Then probably in 1840's he married to a Charlotte - possibly in 1846 Whitechapel RD to Charlotte WARNER. 

I found them in 1851 in Holborn St Andrew at HO107/1513; Folio: 445; Page: 31.  Ancestry has them as HERRIDGE, but initial letter is not like H in Head, or Holborn, but more like K in Kent on that page

Going back a stage, I have the following children

• Mary Ann Sophia,  born 13 Aug 1829, bapt 2 Sep at Clerkenwell St James.  I have her buried 10 Mar 1854 at St Pancras St James aged 24.  In 1851 she was as follows

• Charlotte, born c1834 - as per 1851 census

I have not been able to find the family in 1841 or 1861 census

Good find with Emma Jane by the way

Hi Andy,

Not much extra except the third witness to Sophia Maria Snell Kerridge's wedding to Nathan Martindale was Eliza Susannah Kerridge so she was alive on the 10th of April 1825.  Emma is listed as Emma Jane.  (If you have a spare Eliza getting married please let me know.)  Nat. Burial Index gave Nathan's burial and his son at age five.  Found one for William Kerridge in 1816 at St Clement which probably fits but no obvious wife.  (Snell is a very common name in Ipswich, Suffolk.)

Actually this is the only Eliza Susannah I have in my files.  Sorry, can't help any more with her.  I note  on Sophia's marriage that her name is definitely written as Snell

I looked forward at the marriages after Sophia's up to and including 1840, in case Eliza S had witnessed other marriages.  She hadn't but Henry had ..

29 May 1831: Henry ALLAWY, otp, bach, & Mary SYMONDS, otp, spin, by banns, both signed.  Witnesses: Henry KERRIDGE & Elizabeth Johnson HUMBLE

Hi, as a direct descendant of William Kerridge of Ipswich, father to Henry Gallant Kerridge 1772 to 1839 I have been researching this branch. Henry had 7 children,
Donald McDonald kerridge, William, Caroline, Emma Jane, Eliza Susannah, Edwin Moore and Charles Robert.
As a child I use to play with Donald's top hat and cane. He was manager at McDonald's Music Hall in1863.the hall lost its licence in1871 due to complaints by the police. It was sold and reopened in 1879 as a Quaker meeting house by William Isaac Palmer. Heir to the Huntly and Palmer biscuit family. It is now a youth theatre.
Donald's daughter Emma Letitia McDonald Kerridge was quite famous later as a vocalist / comedian.

If anyone has more information on Henry's father William or Catherine Bonds family, I would be most interested.

Hi,
I am a direct descendant of Donald McDonald Kerridge. I haven't been tracing my family history for that long but do know that his parents were Henry Gallant Kerridge and Catherine Bond and that they were married at St Clement Danes Church. I also know quite a lot about Donald McDonalds career in the Music Hall business, along with his daughter Emma. So any information on Henry Gallant and Catherine would be very helpful, their parents and siblings. I am also looking for Donald McDonalds last resting place. He died in Islington in 1874 but have come up against a wall when finding out where he is buried. 
Any information is gratefully accepted,
Thanks :)

You will find Donald McD buried in Abney Park Cemetery - check it out on the internet - there is a free index available and there are 14 Kerridge's (inc his wife, Letitia) buried there

Thanks very much Andy. No wonder I couldn't find him as that cemetery is over in East London somewhere isn't it!. Should have guessed, though, as his wife is buried there. Do you have any info on Henry & Catherine? Or anything on Donald McDs daughter Emma? I have managed to find her on a music hall advert for 1864 but would love to find a picture. My nan talked about her grandfather being in the music hall business but I never really believed her until I started digging into the history. She also seemed to think that we were related to the Hartley jam people but she may have been getting confused as I believe Emma married a man called Hardesty.
Thanks for getting back to me

I have not found all the family in 1891, but Constance (the L was for Letitia) and what appears to be a sister, Ethel May, are aged 14 and 9, respectively and are pupils ata school in Kirkley, Suffolk (nr Lowestoft).  In 1901 the family are back in one place in Chiswick, no more children – however Horace’s birthplace is now Norwich, not St John’s Wood.  In 1911, Emma May is still with her parents, who now live at 89 Uxbridge Road, Ealing.  Horace was a manufacturer’s agent for preserves and confectionary, & were living in an 11-roomed house.    So there was a connection with preserves, and if you dig deeper you may find the company for whom he was working - might be Hartleys?  Would be difficult to track that down as he was an agent and could have been working at some distance from the manufacturing sites

I believe that Catherine was nee BOND, married Henry K in 1790 at London St Clement Dane, had possibly 12 children and then died in 1829.  Henry married secondly to Lucy POWELL a widow, and seems to have had 2 further children with her.  Henry was a ham dealer from at leats 1816-1829 and was a ward beadle for St Gregory by St Paul in 1833.  He died in 1839.  I have nothing on Henry's origins though

Hi Andy,

I struggled with the Suffolk records at our local Society yesterday but I did progress. Henry Gallant Kerridge was Chr 23.1.1772 St Stephen (no second given name recorded). It seems his aunt Sarah Kerridge born abt 1726/7 mar. Henry Gallant 31.3.1765. He subscribed to a history of Ipswich so I knew he existed. Seems no children. She was bur. 23.4.1793 aged 66 and he wid 23.5.1796 aged 65. both St Stephen. The father of Henry mar. Rebecca Mullinger 7.11.1754 St Clement. He a wid. His first wife Mary was bur. 11.10.1751. He and Rebecca and he and Mary were subject to settlements first 2.3.1744 no children mentioned so probably just married and 16.12.1756 with Rebecca with children Mary and Sarah to St Mary Tower so I guess he came from there. From his first marriage Mary Chr 25.9.1745 St Peter survived (James and William died as infants). Sarah was Chr 8 or 9 Jan 1756 St Clement (two entries under different spellings), William, 6.4.1758, James 13.8.1760 and Rebecca Dec 1761 (to Isabel but think it is a mistake as no other entries) who mar aged 18 28.2.1780 Kesgrave, John Moore aged 30. Her father listed as William. Think the Moore named used later is from this marriage so perhaps no children. I still don't know where Snell comes from but Ann Catherine born 23.11.1792 Chr 9 Dec. at St Lawrence Ispwich to Henry Kerridge and Catherine (late Bond) popped up. I will bet there is a Rebecca in there somewhere.

Was thinking about David Kerridge perhaps it was really Donald McDonald who would have been 19 in 1829. Perhaps he went on stage later on. So Hemming, Moore and Gallant accounted for but still have Snell and McDonald and Wood on Catherine's sister Rebecca line.  Given the Anna Maria, Sophia Maria and now Ann Catherine I wonder if the Bond mother was Ann or Anna?

There was a James and Sarah with dau Sarah settled in St Mary Tower in 1748 but not really much on them as a family but he could be a brother of William and Sarah. Two possible burials for William but no age listed on either. Nothing for Rebecca.

If any of it fits into your Kerridge database I would appreciate the information. If the PDF records were easier to use I would go back and try Rebecca's maiden name. Lots of Snells but no Kerridge marriage male or female there but it might be before 1754 which is the cut off date for the records they have made available. Printing is limited by the licence agreement which makes putting families together difficult. Fortunately William's first family is on Family Search.

William's first wife, Mary, may be Mary PITT who married a William KERRIDGE at Ipswich St Peter on 31 Jul 1743 (a date which then suits your comment re no children in settlement of 1744).

Interested in your comment re Henry G's aunt being Sarah KERRIDGE who married Henry GALLANT - how do you know she was his aunt?

Note that there was a William Kerridge MULLINGER bp at Barking Sty Mary 28 Jul 1754, son of Rebecca MULLINGER

Got a bit more to look at but thought would get these bits off

Do you not think it strange that William and Rebecca had children 1754-1761 at 1-2 year intervals and then Henry G was bp 1772, 11 years after Rebecca?  It may be a baptism some year after birth of course, or where there other children bp elsewhere?

William bp 1754 son of William and Mary (probably nee PITT) - do you have a burial date for him?

On the marriage of Rebecca to John MOORE did you notice that the witnesses:  Samuel ROW & William KERRIDGE - Samuel was probably husband of Sarah KERRIDGE who married Samuel (a fermer of Eyke) at Kesgrave 8 May 1778 and the witnesses to that marriage were William and Rebecca KERRIDGE

Following up on the Kesgrave link
Marriage 09 Dec 1766 of a William KERRIDGE and Eliz WHYMAN
Burial 26 Jul 1780 of William KERRIDGE

Andy,

I don't know that Sarah is a sister but given her age at burial she would fit.  Neither wife was Sarah but they had a daughter Sarah and Henry did add Gallant to a couple of his children's bapts.  Henry was a year younger than Catherine Bond so he must have been born the year he was baptized. Didn't make the connection with Samuel Rowe and it does look like the first wife was Mary Pitt.  No I didn't see a burial for the first William but it might be under her maiden name not Kerridge.  Agree there is a big gap between the last child and Henry but I have seen this is families before.  There may be another in 1765/66 but I didn't see it.  I did try Herridge as well. Lots of Gallants but didn't see anything of interest.
