Title: Joseph Currie
Post by: AidanR on Sunday 04 May 08 19:53 BST (UK)
I'm looking for informatio on a Joseph A A Currie born circa 1830 in London and married to Caroline. THey had the following kids: Charles H A, Arthur, Thomas and Joseph.

Charles H A Currie was born in 1848 in St. Pancras and married Amelia Green (b. 1846).

Any information on the Currie line would be much appreciated.

This could be the marriage and if so, you would be able to get Joseph's father's name from it:

St. Pancras/vol 1/page 333

Sept. 1847

Joseph Anthony Alexander Currie

Possible wives on the page were: Caroline Beck
                                   Caroline West

Hope this is useful to you.

Have you seen the 1871 census?
RG10/208 Folio 87 Page 1
I wonder if this is your family as a possible birth for Births Mar 1863   (>99%)
CURRIE    Albert Alexander        St Giles    1b   448 looks promising with middle name being Alexander

Hi Jen, well spotted . also on 1871 census is a daughter named Louisa birth
Births Jun 1866   (>99%)
CURRIE    Louisa C        St Giles    1b   467 fits well the middle name C could be for Caroline.

1841 census has the following:

28, Coleshill Street, St. George, Hanover Square

Louisa Currie, 39, Housekeeper, not born in county
Robt, 20, Clerk - b.i.c.
Ann, 20,             b.i.c
Louisa, 5              "

So it looks as if Charles has died, leaving Louisa with three offspring at home.

I'll see if I can find his death registration.
