Title: Dunmores around Earls Barton and surrounds
Post by: wyrleybart on Wednesday 29 October 25 10:46 GMT (UK)
Hi all.
Researching the Dunmores, more recently Ada Dunmore b 1882 in Earls Barton and eldest dau of John Dunmore 1861-1934 snd Sarah Ann Dunmore 1862-1934.

Ada appears in 1891 1901 1911 and 1921 as a single person.
1881 a scholar age 9 at London End Earls Barton.
1901 a worker living with grandfolks John and Mary Austin in High St.
1911 age 29 a mothers help to Frederick and EJ Wallis at an address in Burton Latimer
1921 a servant for Thomas and Nelly Knight. Shown as single and age 44

Maybe i have the wrong Ada Dunmore although i recognise dates "varied".  A cousin believed Ada married Arthur Nurser in 19xx so maybe he is correct and my 1921 census has led me down a rabbit hole !!

The other part of the conundrum is that parents John Dunmore and Sarah Ann Dunmore seem to be from separate Dunmore families - well for at least several generations anyway.

Interested to hear anyone else is researching Dunmores.

Believe you have wrong Ada in 1921 census.

How about Ada Dunmore marries George S Pearson 1917. Daughter Constance W Pearson born 1917 mmn Dunmore.

1921 census for Constance shows mother Dead.

Deaths Sep 1918   
Pearson    Ada    36    Northampton    3b   62   = born 1882

Very plausible "softly softly" and "rosie99".  Thanks very both.  Need to sharpen my pencil and keep researching
Thanks again.

Forget the Ada Dunmore who married Nurser. She was born in 1889, in 1921 census with parents, marries as Ada (S) Dunmore, 1939 is Ada S and dies as Ada Sarah.

Thanks very much Willsy.
Pearson seems correct.

The one little query I am trying to resolve is the middle name "W" in her daughter's name !!!

I love genealogy and Rootschat, and thanks all for your help
