Title: Gorin and Jenner families, Ledbury and East Sussex
Post by: Mickytom on Tuesday 04 November 14 09:24 GMT (UK)

Just started researching the families of William Edward GORIN, born Ledbury, Herefordshire 17/11/1919, and Freda Pearl JENNER, born Lewes, Sussex, 01/06/1923. They were married in the 1940s. Birth certs on order, but anybody have anything at all on their likely respective families?

According to FreeBMD, Freda's mother's maiden name was JENNER, which often implies that the mother wasn't married, but in this case you might want to follow up a marriage in Lewes reg. district between Harry D JENNER and Hilda B JENNER in Sep Q 1919.  (Lewes 2b 525)

Harry David JENNER - b. Jun Q 1891 (Lewes 2b 191)
Hilda Blanche JENNER - b. Sep Q 1898 (Lewes 2b 182)

Do you have access to census info?

(Obviously the birth cert will confirm if it's the right couple, but they look possible.)

Thanks for that; very helpful! Will be arranging census access soon.

Thanks to KGarrad, the Gorin family shown in 1901 are indeed the ones I seek; on the 1911 census, mother, father and younger(est) son are in Hereford and all the details match-up perfectly to both censuses and the birth certs I now have. Any hopes of finding the sundry family members on the 1891, 1881, etc, censuses? Possibly around Gloucester, I guess.

Any takers, then, for an Alfred H(enry) GORING, aged circa 17, maybe living with parents (?!?), in 1881, and presumably circa seven years of age in 1871? Around Gloucester?

Cheers.
