Kent / Re: Green family of Deal.
« on: Thursday 14 August 25 11:35 BST (UK)  »
Bit confusing as I cant see that Sophia ever married??

1891 Census
Louisa Green 63   Head Unm born St George in the East, London
Sophia C Green   57 Sister Unm born St George in the East, London
Both Single and Living on own means

Sophia appears to have died 1893

1881 we have;
Elizabeth Green   77 Head
Louisa Green 53 Daughter
Sophie B. Green 47 Daughter

1911 Louisa is a Lodger with Phoebe Eastman and living on her own means so has a income.
She died 1915 and left an estate of 1500 pounds odd.

It is confusing. I have these details. The ones I am searching for, included most members of the Green family.

Kent / Green family of Deal.
« on: Thursday 14 August 25 09:08 BST (UK)  »
Seeking help please?  About 5 years old I saw here comments about the Green family of Deal, Kent. It listed several members of the family especially Louisa Green of 27 Water Street, Deal.  Her sister was Sophia Caroline Booth.

In 1911 Louisa Green was been cared for by Phoebe Eastman a widow of Cliffe Cottage, St Patrick’s Road, Deal, Kent. Mrs Eastman died 1926.

The details were very comprehensive on the Green family. I would like to make contact again with that helpful person. ( I have lost my notes from this time. )

Grateful for assistance please?  Thank you

Cornwall / Re: Francisco Samuel Short ?

I don't think this is her. She was born around 1873 (according to Census records) and this Catherine C. Short was 85 in 1969, DOB c. 1884.

I just thought that maybe Francisco was buried/cremated at the same place as his mother.

Catherine C. Short  buried in Camden 4 February 1938. Not sure why she wasn’t buried with her husband Horace Short.  I have checked here and no ashes etc., added Horace Shorts grave. Also checked with Liz Walker a relation, she renovated two Short graves in Hampstead and no additions there.

Last one...

Do you know where his mother has been buried/cremated? I understand that she was still alive when he died?

I don’t know Catherine C Short died 1969 in Liskeard while in Lanellion Hospital, Station Road Liskeard.  Same location as the death of Francisco S Short in 1954.  Going round in circles here, as lots of Short’s in Cornwall. Unless something new/solid comes along, I must move onwards. Thx

She moved late in life to New Zealand and died there. Her cremated remains were lost in a house fire.

Old eyes here I'm afraid  ;D

Have you tried this place given as his address?

'Francisco Samuel Short, of "Leylands," Meopham, in the County of Kent'

Hello Old Eyes


Yes I have tried that location and of course the nearby churchyard. Nothing.

Any final thoughts please on the location of the burial of Francisco Samuel Short ?  Died 1954 at The Fountain Inn,  in Liskeard, Cornwall while on a business trip.  No record of his cremation/burial once undertakers took the body after the Inquest had been held.

Grateful for any new eyes on this please. I am up against a deadline now.

Thank you

Mike

The person who gave evidence of identity of Francisco Samuel Short, was Percy Parker of The Bungalow, Trevisquite St Mabyn. He was in the hotel drinking with Mr Short.

Mr Parker lived in the same area as Hugh Oswald Short, who lived at Trevisquite Manor, St Mabyn. He would have known the Short family.
