Yorkshire (West Riding) / Rosanna Zanelli b. 1867
« on: Saturday 20 December 25 03:55 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find Rosanna Zanelli.
b. 14 Dec 1867 and bap. 15 Jan 1869 in Brightside, Yorkshire, to Antonio Zanelli (c1823-1903) and Catherine Moal (c1835-1904).
transcription here: https://www.freereg.org.uk/search_records/674f3870b18f7c6bdb177c6d/rosanna-zanelli-baptism-yorkshire-west-riding-brightside-1869-01-15?locale=en
I cannot find her in any other records. I suspect she dies sometime between her baptism and 1881 census as she isn't with her parents in 1881, but could be a servant somewhere (about 14 years old though). I cannot find the 1871 census report of the family. I believe it's due to a misspelling of the surname which happens a lot. Zanelli is Italian and about every variation you believe could exists, exists.

Thank you to all of you!!
I did go look at more of Fulham's Ushers, and there are a few more without a mmn listed on the GRO index, which makes me believe they are Illegitimate + I couldn't find a census for them.
Edit: putting them here for now, i'll do more research on them soon.

^ does seem to have an 1911 census, living with completely unrelated people.

London and Middlesex / Re: Harry Victor Usher Parents
« on: Sunday 03 August 25 03:31 BST (UK) »In 1939 with the Ushers is
Charles Minton 12 Dec 1910 Male Automobile Electrical Engineer
There is a marriage in 1907
Elizabeth Usher to Joseph Thomas MINTON, a painter
But they seem to be together a lot before that.
In 1901 they are at 77 Chancellors road, same as the baptism, with a 5 month old Henry Minton
That other name seems familiar. I believe I saw a Henry or Joseph somewhere with the names Usher and Minton together, let me try to find it quickly.

« on: Sunday 03 August 25 03:14 BST (UK) »He married 25 December 1924 (not 1926) St Peter's Battersea, he was 24 and Pastry Cook
Her father was Albert Town deceased, Lily was 22.
His father Joseph Thomas Usher was a Painter
I was told Lily and Harry first met as orphans in an orphanage (details were a little messy)so it seems Lily was the orphan. Her mother seems to be Selina, and both her parents die in 1911. I was also told Harry Victor was a baker.
Albert was a painters labourer from the 1911 census, so maybe painter was accidentally put in Joseph's occ.
Age is a bit out butI don't know who D. B. could be, or why they were there in the first place.
Shipping
Kingston Jamaica to Aviemouth, arrived 11 May 1924
H.V. Usher age 22 no occupation
Miss D. B Usher, 26 typist
Going to 32, Madeley Rd, Ealing.
Country of last permanent residence, British Honduras

Births Dec 1900
USHER Henry Victor Fulham 1a 206
That's him, but the GRO index doesn't have that record, only FreeBMD. I have no idea if it was transcribed weirdly, or I'm doing something wrong.
The GRO index usually has the mother's maiden name too.

Trying to find information on his parents
Harry Victor Usher, b. October 05, 1900, Hammersmith, Middlesex to Joseph Thomas Usher and Elizabeth Fanny ?.
Unable to find a birth registration that contains mmn, and a census for him.
He marries Lily Town in 1926, and they immigrate to Canada during ww2.

Forgot to mention, the family seems to have ties to South Bend(?) NJ or South River NJ.
