Title: patchett family lancashire
Post by: rs2016 on Saturday 14 September 19 20:11 BST (UK)
Hi, I would be grateful if anyone can help me figure a few things out, it's a little complicated so i'll do my best to explain.

In the 1911 census living in st leonards gate, Lancaster is Delilah Patchett and her two daughters, annie and may. Annie's birth year is stated as 1905/6 but I cannot find any birth registered anywhere around that time for her.

I know that Annie Patchett married William gamble in 1923, they are living in Lancaster in the 1939 register which states she was born in 1905, her sister may Patchett is unmarried and living with them, her birth year is 1909 yet the only birth I can find for a may patchet is 1907, the mothers maiden name is Bates, I have found a Delilah bates born 1870 in Oldham which fits with what is written in the 1911 census.

I am still unable to find a record for delilah's marriage to someone with the surname Patchett, I don't know where her husband is in the 1911 census as it still says she's married not widowed and there is no trace of the 3 children they lost according to the 1911 census, there is also no trace of Delilah Patchett in the 1901 census.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

May Patchett's age on the 1911 is 3 so born c 1908 not 1909 which makes it more likely that the birth registered Dec 1/4 1907 Lancaster is your May Pratchett. Like you I can't see a birth reg for a Ann* Pra*chet*/Bate(s) In fact the only birth reg showing in Lancaster 1892 - 1911 is May's.

May's birth certificate could be worth getting as it may name her father

Electoral registers in the 1920's have Delilah her living with a Joseph Patchett

School admissions 15.04.1912 Skerton County Primary School have
Annie Patchett 2.7.05
May    Patchett  8.12.07   Father of both is Joseph of 98 Main street which ties in with the Joseph Rosie99 found.

Was just going to post that death for Joseph  :)

Joseph & Delilah were buried in Skerton
Delilah on 1 Nov 1923 abode 98 Main St, Skerton
Joseph on 21 Jul 1924 abode 2 Quernmore Road, Lancaster

They are in the same grave A591

That is pretty conclusive.  Yay you!

So now we have the name Joseph and an approximate age at death.  Now it's a matter of seeing which of the births (if he was even born in Lancashire!) we can eliminate.

Barrow in Furness is not that far away from Lancaster.  I have a family member in Barrow in 1911 whose family was in Morecambe  ::)

FreeBMD has a marriage Jun qtr 1882 Burnley Joseph Henry PATCHETT on same page as John HARDACRE, Elizabeth Ann HARGREAVES, and Mary LEAVER
GRO births - none for PATCHETT/LEAVER, but PATCHETT/HARGREAVES include Walter (1883), Mary (1884), Emily (1886), Henry (1890 Burnley) - all in Burnley.

Joseph H and Elizabeth A are on the 1901 Census with children (FamilySearch ) This gives Joseph's birthplace as Colne, Lancashire and age as 39.
The family appears on the 1911 Census (FamilySearch GBC/1911/RG14/24809/0557/1) with Elizabeth Ann as head, married.

So, where was Joseph Henry in 1911?  I can't see a death for him 1901-1911.  Is Joseph Henry PATCHETT your man?

I was hoping to eliminate the Josephs born in Lancashire before moving on to those living in Lancashire but born elsewhere.
Is this the only Joseph of about the right age living in Lancashire but born elsewhere in 1901 or 1911 of about the right age (allowing for a few years either way of the death age 65 in 1924 which gives birth c1859)?

There is a death for a Joseph Henry Patchett 79 yrs -1940, Manchester.

That seems to rule out Joseph Henry.

Allowing for the possibility that the age at death was approximate, that leaves one potential and two unlikely Lancashire births to eliminate.

Rosie99s Joseph born 1859 Halifax was married in Heaton Norris 1880 to Ellen Wood.
Ellen living in Oldham with children in1901/1911 but Joseph not with her.She dies in 1950.
cant find them on 81 or 91 yet using family search.
Does 1911 census for Delilah say how many years married.
I should  say it could possibly be the same Joseph

Yes, but we cannot give that information but him missing on the census with Ellen 1901/11 would fit.

That's a shame,wish I'd renewed my subscription now.. should add that he was Registered as Joe patchett but married as Joseph.Definate same person though as his dad had a double barrel surname.

I should have said well done hol  ;D

The marriage to Ellen has Joseph's occupation as a Moulder age 21 and his address as 9 Joseph St, Heaton Norris - father Robinson Kitchen Patchett occ Billiard Table Maker.

It gets stranger with Delilah,her parents Thomas b1846 and Sarah Ann b1848 have a daughter born 1891 named Gladys .Gro has no mothers surname. Christening has mother Delilah and father Thomas Bates.
Delilah isn't with the family on 1901 census

Thankyou for that rosie, after getting hold of may's birth certificate it says joseph is an iron moulder so i'm pretty sure this is him in 1911!
