Hi all,
Been a long time since I looked at this but my Dad's death a few weeks back has made me think of family tree stuff again. I just wondered, without birth certificates, can you check the parents of a child born?
I tell you why. My Great Great grandparents John Gibson Fouldes and Julia Fouldes (nee Oates) appear on the 1911 census (in Sheffield) and here, for the first time, it mentions they had three children that died.
They had 5 children that lived (John Gibson, George, Frank, James and Edith) and I can track them until death but I wondered about the missing children.
There is a Harry Fouldes born in Sep 1888 (in the same area as their other children: Ecclesall B.) but I see no death (another Harry was also born here but in 1894 and he died in 1934 aged 40. I would know if he was John and Julia's son).
Also a Herbert Fouldes was born Jun 1897 in Ecclesall B. And a Death is recorded in Sep 1898 for Herbert Fouldes Age 1 in the same district, Ecclesall B.
That gives two possible offspring but only one with a birth and death date. One has just a birth date. One remains missing.
So yes a puzzle for me. I did try that free website to look up baptisms but it doesn't really give many clues.
Thanks all

Have you tried the GRO website which gives mothers maiden names for births?
If you put "Fouldes" for the surname and "Oates" for mothers maiden name you can cross check the children that come up to see if any could be yours.
Keep in mind spellings too, Fouldes and Oates could be written differently. I would look for you but can't open the site at the moment.

Herbert Fouldes,

Father John Gibson Cab Driver
Mother Julia

Julia Fouldes
3/12/1883
St Mary,Bramall Lane
Father John Coal Dealer
Mother Julia
14 Copley Street.

There's a death for Julia Foulds age 6 in Dec 1889 Ecclesall B district.
Death for Harry Foulds age 0 in Mar 1889 Ecclesall B district.
So along with Herbert that gives the missing 3 - providing their birth registrations confirm mothers maiden name as Oates. I think it will especially as the little girl was called Julia for her mother.

Oh that is wonderful! I never knew they had a second girl. Named after her mother as well. Well actually it was about 11 months after their wedding so she woukd be their first child. I wonder when she died? Certainly before the 1891 census. Ahhh just seen this There's a death for Julia Foulds age 6 in Dec 1889 Ecclesall B district.
Death for Harry Foulds age 0 in Mar 1889 Ecclesall B district.
So along with Herbert that gives the missing 3 - providing their birth registrations confirm mothers maiden name as Oates. I think it will especially as the little girl was called Julia for her mother.
Thanks that shows the Julia baby .
I seem to have been correct with Herbert as that is the same address as the family are found on the 1891 census. Thank you. I just needed the third child who died and I had wondered if it was Harry. Thanks for the help. This has been helpful, thanks

Very interesting! That pretty much nails it. So are there baptism notes and dates for Harry and Herbert, like there was with Julia?
Cheers

As an aside... the birth of Harry appears as expected in the FreeBMD database, and on their site you can check the image of the original quarterly index. It clearly says Harry FOULDES.
*but*
In the more recent online version of the GRO Index, the one which has the mother's maiden name, there is only...

Thank you, yes I have all that. I managed, years ago, to find copies of the censuses that the other children (and parents) are on. All the way up to and including the 1911 one. You are correct with the marriage. Alice (always referred to as Maud) married my great grandad and my grandad (also John Gibson Fouldes - the third and last to be named this) was their only child.
Thank you

Wow. So the official website run by "experts" has transcribed it wrong, but the freeBMD run by volunteers has it right? That doesn't surprise me! :)
I am guessing poor young Harry didn't get a chance to be baptised. I know they were pretty soon after birth, but maybe he was too ill during his short 6 month life.

Hi all, so would the mother and father of this family have a burial listed online?
I *think* I see Julia Fouldes on the Free BMD under Deaths (Date: Dec 1932, Surname: Fouldes, Christian Name: Julia, Age: 75, Death place: Wortley)
I know the death of her husband. Under Free BMD under Deaths (Date: Mar 1926, Surname: Fouldes, Christian Name: John G(ibson), Age: 64, Death place: Sheffield)
Thanks

Hi all, without getting a birth certificate is there a way I can check a death of a relative?
My relative Edith Fouldes married Harry D. Pearson (the Free BMD website mention September 1915 marriage). A relative told me she died of cancer in the 1950s. I did find a death in Sheffield, on the Free BMD website, saying:
PEARSON Edith 67.
It would make sense with her birth date. I don't know if there are any burial, church or newspaper details? Also I wonder if it might mention when her husband Harry D Pearson died?
Thanks all.

My grandad, born 1913, would have remember them rather well then. Especially Julia. I wished I had asked him about them when I was little! I used to record my family on my tape recorder. But, as a child, I was more interested in winding them up! What a waste!
Thanks for those. I think I had the GRO details already somewhere. I meant was there somewhere it listed where they were buried - I am not sure what is available. Be nice to know if there is a grave somewhere.

No, they both died childless. I don't know if she had health problems. In all photos she had quite dark circles under her eyes.

Yep George was John Gibson and Julia's son and Leah (Shimwell) was his wife. They married but didn't have children.
