London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Seeking Samuel Meredith (Meredith)
« on: Sunday 23 July 17 10:49 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone
I am hoping someone can help me find Samuel Meredith, father of Elizabeth Jane Tratt Meredith.
Elizabeth was born in 1863 in Stepney. She married Henry Charles Rudolph in 1880. (Interestingly shown as full age on marriage records when she was in fact 17!)
On her marriage record her father is shown as a watch maker.
I cannot find either of them in any census records,only Elizabeth as a married woman in 1881 onwards.
I did find an Elizabeth living with a widowed Jane in 1871 with 5 siblings, but now realise they are the children of a William Thomas Meredith- so the wrong family. Although William was also a watch spring maker so I suspect related.
I can also find a Samuel Driver Meredith but he is a labourer and no records show an Elizabeth.
Any ideas or information will be greatly appreciated.
