Title: Searching for information on a family member 1901
Post by: Findmypast2016 on Monday 22 February 16 20:43 GMT (UK)
Hello,this is my first post on here.

I started researching my family tree for medical reasons but soon got bitten by the bug. I have found out a lot of information so far. I ordered the birth certificate of my great grandmother so I could find out my great great grandmothers name. On the certificate which I received today is indeed her mums name but In the box where the  fathers name  should be it is blank and has a line through it,the same with the fathers occupation box. The year was 1901. I'm thinking it must have been quite the scandal in that time?
My great great grandmother was called Sarah Elizabeth Peach and was a domestic servant. I think I have found her in records and that her date of birth was 1874. Her daughter was born 12/10/01 and named Ailah May. She was born at puddle hill bonsall UD but the address of her mother was south street,Newton Alfreton.
If I am correct Sarah married 3yrs after having her daughter to a William Housley. Who I presume wasn't the father as he isn't on the birth certificate.
Can anybody help with any further information on that family or as to why the father would have been left off a birth certificate?
Thank you.

The lack of a fathers name on a birth certificate usually means the child is illegitimate.

Hi [

Ray

I wouldn't say the Grandparents of Ailah are immediately identifiable

It seems Ailah went to stay with her Grandfather and his 2nd wife

It looks like Isaac and Charlotte are her grandparents

what does seem to be strange is Sarah Elizabeth Peach had a daughter Ailah May in 1901 Sarah Elizabeth married William Housley  and their 4th child together -b 1910 was also named Ailah (Housley)

Yes, the first Ailah (Peach) is with her grandparents, whilst the younger Ailah (Housley) is, as you mention, Suzard, with her parents.

I wondered, before looking at the 1911 census entries, if the elder Ailah would be shown as the 'daughter' of her grandparents, as often happened with illegitimate births, and therefore did not 'belong' in the Housley family so another child could be given her name. But she is clearly shown as grand-daughter.

Perhaps the elder Ailah was normally called by her middle name, May?

Hi,

Ailah is an unusual name, this with a place of birth as Bonsal Derbyshire, so just wondered where
the name came from. 

1901 Census  Puddle Hill, Bonsal, Derbyshire
Piece 3241, Folio 11, Page Number13
John Kinder   48
James Kinder   46
Joshua Kinder   35
Arlah Peach   20  PUT ACTUALLY AILAH ON THE CENSUS IMAGE.
Mary A Peach   9/12
Sarah L Peach   26

So possibly a family connection.

Ailah & Sarah were sisters & it looks like Sarah had another daughter before Ailah in 1901.
There's a birth in 1899 for a Mary Ann Peach ( Ashbourne Reg. Dist. which covers Bonsall) but no death & I can't see her in 1911.
May be she had her adopted if it's the right one ?
I notice she was in Puddle Hill so I'm wondering if one of the Kinders is Ailah's father.

Wow,just checked back and I'm overwhelmed everyone by your replies. Many Thanks to all of you.

Ailah May born in 1901 married George Baker in 1922 and they had  a daughter also in 1922 also called Ailah May. So it was obviously a family name. Although the Ailah born in 1922 had a daughter in 1945 with John Smith and named her Carol so she didn't carry on the name. Carol was my mother.

I have managed to find information on some of the Baker family,(children from Ailah and George) there is a sister who would be 77 now and I wrote last week to an address I found on the internet but as yet have no reply. My grandmother died aged 25 when my mum was 2 and I have never met any of that side of the family. So here's hoping

Ailah May born in 1901 married George Baker in 1922


An extra 'I' added to spelling of Ailah's name but this looks to be her death entry
