London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Re: Holborn Marriages 1841
« on: Wednesday 15 October 25 17:51 BST (UK)  »
Like you I can only find the marriage index, not a Holborn register.

Meanwhile, in 1851 census in Pilton:
Elizabeth Bull, 30, farmer of 135 acres, widow
with children:
Mary Ann Bull, 16  (in the baptism records Feb 1835 her mother was Charlotte)
William Bull  9
Abraham Bull 7
John Bull 6
Philip Tyler Bull 3
Elizabeth Sarah Bull 2

The Govt Record Office has:

BULL, ISAAC  JOHN     MMN RIPPIN 
GRO Reference: 1845  M Quarter in OF THE UPPINGHAM UNION  Volume 15  Page 76

Is this the John Rippin son of Elizabeth baptized in Pilton in July 1845?

There is an Abraham Bull marrying Charlotte Rippin on 13 Feb 1834 at Edmondthorpe, Leicestershire. Ancestry references this as FHL Film Number 592706

ADD: Charlotte Bull of Pilton, buried in Pilton, Rutland January 12th 1840.

Is this 'your' sister?

Perhaps need to widen my search, geographically speaking.

purlin: a great find!

It gave me the idea to search for coffee tavern and temperance keywords for the 1881 and 1891 census but although I found a few, I didn't find any Barker Gate addresses. And only found owners and their staff, with no-one listed as a lodger on census night.

Good call about Barker Gate in Hucknall as I was focused on Barker Gate in Nottingham.  Now to see how many Barker Gates there were around and about.

I don't know when I'll visit the archives - probably in a month or so.

It's on the to-do list.  I probably need to visit to look at electoral rolls and any local directories that haven't been digitised.

Benjamin Hartley Fairbrother was a boarder in Stockport in the 1881 census, age 38, unmarried, born Warrington, financial agent and accountant.

Wonder what 'gained ascendancy over' meant in relation to the daughter?

I've searched the 1881 and 1891 Nottingham census with the keyword 'temperance' for address or occupation but only found a temperance hotel at Houndsgate (that also pops up in newspaper articles) and Westgate.

Thanks for looking further.  I can see a few references to pubs in Barkergate in newspaper archives so I wonder if a licensee left one, and it naturally evolved into a temperance establishment?  I'll do some delving this evening. 

I haven't found any newspaper articles about a new temperance hotel in Nottingham in the 1880s at all, nor about an existing one in Bakergate. Possibly the newspaper printed the wrong street?
