I see that his mother, Emma, died in 1912 and left probate in 1913 Alfred's older brother Walter was the executor. A copy of her will might offer useful info. (Will see if I have it, if not, will try and get it.)
The second child Christine Margaret Hathaway Esse was born in Ealing on 27 June 1900 - I have birth certificate.' (Typo should have been 17th June)
The birth was announced on the 23 June to have occurred on the 17 June:
The Mart, the 17th of June, at Gordon Road, Ealing, the wife of Alfred Esse, of a daughter.

Annie Agnes GOUGH at the 1893 marriage to Charles PILGRIM  stated she was 28, a spinster.  She shared his address- 52 Darwin Street and her father was William GOUGH, deceased, a carpenter.
Charles was 25, a bachelor, a coalminer. Son of William PILGRIM, a coalminer .
Witnesses were James THREDGOLD and Mary WRIGHT.
Charles was 25, a bachelor, a coachman. Son of William PILGRIM, a coachman.
Witnesses were William James THREDGOLD and Mary WRIGHT.
It seems they can’t even get the occupations correct back then.

There is a baptism for Dorothy in a Roman Catholic church in Battersea 1890; naming parents as Alfred and Annie. (Where can I find this please? I can only find a birth).

I have come to the conclusion that Alfred did not want to be found and just fell off the edge of the earth.

There is some unusual information about Alfred and where he lived and who with. one in particular was the 1891 Electoral Register showing him with EE Esse - this maybe his mother Emma Elizabeth Esse - EE Esse - at least I am hoping this is his mother.)

Thanks again Sue, this will make my son-in-law feel good.

Hi all,
I would like some guidance about the above couple. I know Horace was born in France and that he and his wife Ada travelled on board the "Bahia Castillo" departing London on 17th April 1920. I don't know when they arrived in the UK and I can't find them in Australia or when they actually arrived.
My son-in-law knew his grandfather, Kenneth Charles son of Horace and Ada. Kenneth's parents divorced in 1937 and his mother Ada remarried in 1939 to a "Charles". Kenneth took on the new family name of Charles. Probably no paperwork ever done...
If anyone can send me some advice, that would be great. Thank you. Dianne
