Family History Beginners Board / Re: Charles emile derraven
« on: Friday 02 May 25 15:42 BST (UK)  »
Welcome to RootsChat!

Have you seen this?

I do have names, supported by and taken from the following certificates, which arrived today. 

An 1899 marriage certificate for a Charles Emile Derraven (age 28, seaman) and a Margaret Jane Lugton (age 25).
Charles's father, also Charles Emile Derraven (decd), a ship's carpenter.
Margaret's father, William Lugton, also a ship's carpenter.

A  1928 marriage certificate for a Charles Emile Derraven, (age 49, ship's boatswain) and Rose Lilian Anstice (age 21).
Charles's father, also Charles Emile Derraven (decd), an architect.
Rose Lilian's father was Charles Valentine Anstice, a boiler maker.

A 1943 death certificate for a Charles Derraven, age 72, boatswain (retd) M.S. of 4 Mill Parade, Newport.
The informant was R. L. Derraven, widow of the deceased, at the same address.

Taken from reply number 8 on an old thread:

It looks like James' mill burned down in 1759:

3. Any other children John and Catherine may have had

Likely siblings for Esther:

Mary Ellen in 1893:

William John (or John William) in 1894:

Seems like they moved from address to address.

Hi,

You haven't given us his forename?

Thank you, can I ask where you found that, it has evaded me.

Do you have Anc*? If so, here is the link:

I can't find it on FamilySearch for some reason.

Assuming she was born c.1830, there is this possible:

Mary, daughter of Thomas & Sarah Waddington of Ogle Street, was born on 20th March 1830 and baptised on 11th April 1830 at St. Marylebone. Her father's occupation is given as "trade", which would apply to ropemaker.

Worth ruling out.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Yorkshire baptisms

I believe it is "Hardhippins."

It was still going by that name in 1841, at which time several families were living there, including this one (as an example):

Mary Anne and William Holden are at 91 Fisher Street in 1871 with their daughter Elizabeth. William was born c.1844 in Blackburn. Down as reed maker, which fits.
