Hi ,
could somebody please confirm , which BEATRICE BIGGS belongs to RICHARD HENRY BIGGS married 1894 POPLAR london ,
From free bmd,
BEATRICE BIGGS Mar 1905 1c 519,POPLAR.
BEATRICE MAY BIGGS Jun 1905 1c 536 POPLAR.
BEATRICE MAY BIGGS Sep1906 7a 198 POPLAR.
hope you can help and many thanks Arry. ??? ??? ???

Without sending for each birth, its going to be difficult unless they were all baptised in that area and someone has access to them locally. I dont think there are any online available for those years :-\
You can always send for the birth giving the fathers name as a reference, then if its wrong they dont charge as much.
Do you know who Richard Henry married, ??? then perhaps a search through the 1911 census index might help
-
hi,
The 1906 7a 198 is a Leicester registration; there is also a death of a Beatrice Dorothy Biggs aged 1 in Poplar in 1906 so perhaps this is the March 1905 child who was perhaps given the name Dorothy at her baptism??

Looking at the marriage index's on the same page as Richard Henry Biggs 1894 Poplar a Susannah Bailey and Emma Allwood.
On the 1901 there is a Richard Henry Biggs 29 born Dartford with wife Emma 30 born Poplar with 3 other children 6.3. and 1 living Guildford Rd. Poplar.
Minnie 6, Elsie ? 3 and Nellie 1 all born Poplar

To eliminate :-\ Beatrice Dorothy Biggs was christened 11th Dec 1904 dtr of George Joseph and Catherine Biggs,

Do you have her in 1911 Arry ?

Found the marriage of Richard Henry Biggs to Emma Allwood in Poplar 28th June 1894
Richard Henry Biggs 22 Batchelor, 23 a Tinsmith or maybe Twineman :-\ St. Leonards Rd. father John Biggs Shipwright.
Emma Allwood 22 Spinster 24 or 29 ? Guildford Rd. father Wm Henry Allwood, Labourer dec.
Witnesses Daniel ? and Ellen Allwood.
At this stage it still doesent help with Beatrice unless we can find the family in 1911
-

hi,
now i,m confused, we have found a conundrum,HENRY RICHARD BIGGS married 1894 ROTHERHITHE,to Sarah H ? in 1901 census they are in ROTHERHITHE ,with 4 children ,in 1911 census ,SARAH is living with Brother in law ALBERT in Rotherhithe with only 2 children ,something happened between 1901 and 1911,then we have another marriage for HENRY RICHARD BIGGS 1907 ,what happened in between ,any one know ??HELP,many thanks arry
-
Hi
sorry should have said the beatrice in question is a relative of my age concern man ,he has actually met her before she passed away,
-
Arry,
Could you please give us details of the family in 1901.
Rosie

HENRY RICHARD BIGGS married 1894 ROTHERHITHE,to Sarah H ?
I am struggling to find such a marriage on FreeBMD ???
The Richard Henry BIGGS who married Emma in Poplar in 1894 does not seem to have had a daughter Beatrice in the first decade of the 20th century - or at least not one who survived.
-
Arry
We seem to be switching from
a) Richard Henry Biggs married 1894 Poplar (Patrish has given you details of that one, he married an Emma)
b) Henry Richard Biggs married 1907 - presumably you mean the June qtr 1907 Wandsworth one.
Can we go back to what you actually know about Beatrice Biggs, did she marry, where did she live etc. ;) Perhaps you could post details of the families from the 1901 census, where was Sarah born. I can't see any Sarah Biggs that would 'fit' in Rotherhithe in 1901

BEATRICE MAY BIGGS Jun 1905 1c 536 POPLAR.
Public tree on ancestry gives following
Beatrice May Biggs born 8 May 1905 died 1992 Barking Essex - No parents named ???
married 1929 George Joseph Kneller b1906 died 1974 (4 living children – not named)
If you use FreeBMD search by surname & mother’s maiden name this will give you the names of her 4 children http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl
If this might be the right Beatrice Biggs obtaining her marriage certificate would hopefully give you her father’s name
George Kneller to Beatrice M Biggs Jun qtr. 1929 Stepney vol 1c page 392 (FreeBMD)

Hi Rosie .
Yes what happened was he tried RICHARD HENRY BIGGS ,when it should have been HENRY RICHARD BIGGS,
and the confusion sets when in 1901 SARAH H and 4 children are living Rotherhithe,with her parents ,I should have written their names down this morning as i will not see him again until next tuesday ,as i said earlier in 1911 she is living with her brother in law with 2 children ,unfortunately at home i do not have access to census records ,I will try to find her on bmd with what i think is her maiden but not sure and add on when i have i bit of luck ,thank you for your patience ,and please bear with me ,thanks Arry

There is a Sarah Biggs in Rotherhithe in 1901 with her parents William and Henriette/a Coombs and 4 children Henry, Daisy, Sarah and James. However, she doesn't have a middle initial H and her husband (also present) is Alfred Biggs. (RG13/397/30/52). She was Sarah Eliza Combes [sic] when she married Alfred Biggs in Southwark in 1890.
Can we rule her out?
Is the Sarah H Biggs you have found thought to be the mother of a Beatrice in due course?

Hi Ladyhawk ,
Having looked at your results ,i now think that somehow ,i have wondered off the line ,i shall see the chap at age concern and see what he thinks ,i,m almost sure that its the HENRY RICHARD BIGGS who married 1896 st olave ,because he keeps coming back to it and he remembers meeting BEATRICE BIGGS ,of course the other alternitive that her birth name is not BEATRICE maybe that was a pet name ,thank you very much for your efforts ,i will repost on tuesday ,hopefully get it sorted .
-

If your friend can remember approximately when & where Beatrice is likely to have died, and whether she was still a Callaghan at death, then by finding her death record (which we can help you with) it should be possible to get an idea of her likely birthdate.

Hi avm228,

Hi all.
Pure speculation here ,free bmd for st olave .
birth 1902 HENRY RICHARD BIGGS st olave 1d 286.
death 1904 HENRY RICHARD BIGGS st olave 1d 126.
Marriage 1907 HENRY RICHARD BIGGS Wandsworth 1d 719.
Is it possible that this is son being born 1902 and dying 1904,death possibly causing break up and divorce ,now we know in those days divorce was frowned on ,but did HENRY RICHARD remarry 1907 ?? as i say speculation will have a look to see who else was there,many thanks Arry

The Henry Richard Biggs who married Emily Morley on 19 May 1907 claimed to be a 24 yr old bachelor and electric light examiner.

See my reply no #18 shows details of marriage 1907 for
Henry Richard Biggs to Emily Morley his father was George Thomas William Biggs
also details given 1901 census shows
Henry R age 18 born Barnes Surrey with both his parents George T W Biggs & Thriza Ann
1891 RG12; Piece: 441; Folio: 113; Page: 14
Henry R Biggs age 8 Barnes Surrey with his parents George T W Biggs & Thriza Ann
probably birth entry FreeBMD Henry Richard Biggs Jun 1883 Richmond Surrey
I don't think this is the same Henry Richard Biggs that maried Eliza Ann Jones on their marriage cert. his father is named Thomas Biggs (dec'd) occ Lighterman)
Henry Richard can be found on the cenuses with parents Thomas James Biggs occ Lighterman & Sarah Hannah see reply no # 17
Thanks JJ for adding the baptism of son Henry Richard Biggs b1902 - thought I's already given than one to Arry
