London and Middlesex / Re: James William Searle- disappeared!

Hi

I assume that you have chosen the following as your relative?
1895 Sept Pancras 1b 1
James William Searle


Yet you say that he is noted on the documents you have quoted as William James Searle
Why have you discounted this one...................?
1898 Sept Pancras 1b 85
William James Searle   

Hi Ray! Yes the James William Searle born in 1895 is the correct one, confirmed by the naval record I purchased.

On the wedding certificate, Dorothy's father is Joseph Bartlett, a carpenter (I have done the Bartlett's already they were easy to research!) and James' father is called James William Searle, and he is a car man.

James' father I have researched already, he was born in 1870 and died on 2nd September 1936. On his probate, his fortune was left the Percy George Sillence stonemason and William Joseph Dillingham yard foreman. No mention of wife or children, but it is the correct gentleman as the address is right and so is his age at time of death.

I think there is a good chance that JW Searle Jnr has died, ran away or otherwise by 1931, as he is not on any of the electoral registers after 1931 as Dorothy is alone with her sister and brother in law and a few others. She had given birth to her three children by this point also. And I can only find James so far on a 1923 one.

I purchased the records already which were very helpful. The last service is stated as 8th April 1921 to 6th June 1921 on there, so I do not know if he sailed after that time period?

Hello again Mabel :)

I just wish I could find him and put a death date to him. He may have just gone to wherever and never returned? If only I knew!

London and Middlesex / James William Searle- disappeared!

I am having major problems trying to find my great-great grandfather.

His name was James William Searle, born 1895.
He married Dorothy Maud Bartlett in 1918. His occupation is ‘sailor’. They are both living at 35 Carlton Street.
The last known address I have down for him is on my great grandmother Mildred Dorothy Searle’s birth certificate, where they lived at 35 Carlton Street, North St Pancras.
Mildred was born in 1923, and I have found her father on the electoral register for the same year at this address.

I cannot find him after this year, however. Dorothy and James had a daughter, Amy, in September 1924 so presumably he is most likely still alive by that point. I have not seen Amy’s birth certificate so I am unaware of his address.

On Mildred’s marriage certificate from 1942, her father is also down as William James Searle, and he is already stated as deceased,

Dorothy passed away in 1944, and on the death certificate it is stated that she is the widow of a William James Searle. He is most definitely dead by 1942, I having a huge problem with finding him between the years of 1924-1942, and I cannot find a death for either names with an age that fits. I just want to know what happened to him.

Not only that, today I have been on Ancestry and viewed the Electoral Registers, and Dorothy appears to be living with her sister and brother in law in 1931 so James is more than likely dead or they have separated?

Many thanks for any help! I have been looking for him for over a year and still no joy.

On the 1881 census, one of my ancestors lived at 13 Carlton Street, Stockton On Tees. No idea where it was. Can any of you lovely people help me? Many thanks x

The 1881 census can be searched by address. A sample reference obtained for Coral Street is RG11/4859/78/1.

On the 1901 census a sample reference for Coral Street is RG13/4586/38/7.

Some other streets on the enumerator's route in 1901 were Connaught St, Pearl St, Cross St, Short St, Diamond St, Lime St, Lower Graham St and Middlesbrough Road.

Use coordinates 453500 & 520500 on http://www.old-maps.co.uk/maps.html and then scroll down to the 1919-1920 Pre WW1 Yorkshire map (from the Available Maps list on the right hand side). Click on “Enlarge Map” and then you should be able to find Coral Street and the others by using the Enhanced Zoom on the main map section.

Coral Street lay between the following (which are still there) - Nelson Street and Middlesbrough Road just above Leven Street and Costa Street. It was (roughly) where the A66 now runs.

Thank you Glen! I am off to take a look now, I think my page jumped past your reply so I didn't see it straight away  ;D
