London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Chadwick & Crowe Family

Hi,
I have marriage cert of Edward Daniel Crowe to Maria Hill. Both 24.Married at Theberton church Blything Suffolk on Dec 9th 1851. Edward a Blacksmith. The marriage cert is muddled over the fathers. It has Edwards father as Hammond Hill a gardener and Maria's father as Daniel Crowe. I wrote to G.R.O to identify the error, had reply thanking me but the Waveney Record Office in Suffolk confirmed the entry in their records, so mistake must have been made at the time of registering so it cannot be altered.
Also have death certs for Edward Daniel Crowe who died 18th Aug 1910 aged 84 died from senile decay in Stratford West Ham London. Informant married daughter.
Maria died 10 oct 1906 aged 79 years she also died from senile decay and gastritis in Forest gate West Ham London. Informant as before.
My sister in law asked me to find out where the middle name Mitchell comes from as her twin brother also has it as his middle name but not come across any ancestor with that name as yet, anyone else able to help.
Carol.

Hi,
I can fill in a few gaps for you.
Kathleen Agnes Crowe born 10 Nov 1914 Edmonton Middlesex. Kathleen never married. Work for the civil service.
Dorothy married Frederick Borrowdale Dec 1943 in Wetherby. Had one daughter. Only Remember Dorothy with dog kennels.
Muriel married Edwin Cobden in 1936 Edmonton Middlesex. Had son and daughter. Muriel schoolteacher then a headmistress.
Brenda had 3 sons and a daughter( one of the sons and the daughter are twins). Brenda clerical worker, I believe she worked for Post Office when young. She also represented Great Britain in the 1936 Berlin Olympics in rythmatic gymnastics as an exhibition sport, did get a medal. Her Olympic stuff was stolen in a burglary. Do remember seeing her medal.
Her son Robert to whom I was married to for six years and had 2 children with died in the WTC disaster.
Best Wishes
Carol.

Steve,
One of my family sources  tells me that Thomas senior used to drink a bottle of whisky a day thats why Emma emigrated to Australia because she couldn't stand his drinking. He worked at Enfield Small Arms factory. I believe(not verified) that he died in Edmonton workhouse.
Emma supposedly built her own house in Australia at the age of 60, thats why Rosa and her daughters( including my mother in law )went to Australia because their relatives were there.
Hope this helps, will have to go through what I have with a fine tooth comb. But anything you have including photos would be good.
Thanks Carol.
