Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Bachelor in Kent help please
« on: Monday 17 March 14 15:54 GMT (UK)  »
I know I am nine years late, but I think I have an answer for you.

I have found a marriage of a Sophia BACHELOR to a Thomas PRALL (marriage netered as PYALL or POALL depending where you look), at Sheppey Minster in 1830.

Thomas and Sophia are living in Brenchley in 1841 onwards. In 1841, they have a daughter, Ann, born c1828 living with them. This looks like your Ann.

I am researching Thomas and Sophia's daughter Elizabeth.

Hope this helps!

Hi carol and thank you again.

This Sophia is driving me up the wall.  The only other thing I can think of if someone had parish records of Ann's birth but I do not know what details they show as I have not got back this far before.

The other thing I thought of was maybe Bachelor was Sophia married name and she lost her husband.  See now I am going batty.

I will order Ann's marriage certificate and see what details I can get from that if any.

I am not giving up just yet (I will not let her beat me)

Regards
Sue

Buckinghamshire Lookup Requests / Lookup request: Gayhurst Parish, Bucks
« on: Monday 25 November 13 11:54 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for any records for the family PELL in the Gayhurst parish registers from about 1795 to 1875. I don't think there will be many. Particularly interested in:
Baptisms:
William PELL c1850
Caleb PELL c1852
Sarah PELL c1854
Marriages:
John PELL and Elizabeth [?] around 1815-1820
Burials:
John PELL 1848

Any help with these would be very much appreciated.

Hi,

I got the medical records of Frederick Alfred PELL, and they make me more convinced that we are talking about the same guy, but it's so confusing! He claims a birth date of 10/5/1891, even though we know he was born in much earlier. He claims to be unmarried at the time of marrying his second wife, but his first wife is still alive. He is absent from the records during the time the illegitimate family I have was being born.

I also found a reference to a will of a William Rowland JACKAMAN, Solicitor, who left his money to a Constance PELL in 1929. Might this be her mysterious benefactor?

What happened to Frederick Alfred after he deserted the army in 1920? The next time he appears, he is joining up again in 1940, and he remarries the same year. The illegitimate children that look like they are his are born in 1924, 1926, and 1927.

I would REALLY like to see Edna Marion's marriage certificate, to see what she gives as her father's name and occupation.

THANK YOU so much, Donna!! That has confirmed everything I hoped was true, and found me a brother for Elizabeth into the bargain!

I really appreciate you taking the time.

Thank you Jackie - I have them in the censuses now, but trying to find James BUTCHER's parents. Hoping these parish records will help!
