Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Re: The even more famous (not!) GREENs

Hi Brian, Me again. I'm new to Roots Chat so I'm ploughing my way through the threads. Mary Elizabeth Maggs married Charles Green in 1887 but prior to that she had a daughter Amelia in the Southampton Workhouse in May 1884. In the Hants Advertiser of 11 March 1885 there is a report of George Bellinger admitting paternity for Mary's child. I know that Amelia died of Spanish 'flu in 1917, leaving a young family.  Regards Janet

Ephraim's first wife was Rhoda Elizabeth Smith whom he married 23 March 1862 at St Mary's Southampton. They already had a son Isaac Ephraim (also found as Ephraim Isaac).They had 7 children and Rhoda Elizabeth died the first January 1878, one week after the birth of her youngest child Ada Florence. Ephraim remarried  22 November 1881 to Sarah White (nee Willis) They had 2 sons William Willis Maggs(1882 -1917) and Charles George Maggs(1884-1945).
  Ephraim was born in Haxon, near Fittleton Wilts on 14 August 1840, Rhoda was born in the nearby village of Enford on 29 April 1841. I am descended from their son Arthur Albert(1875-1935) Hope this helps. I have lots more.   Janet

Hi Jan,
I know it's been a long time since your request about the above but here goes. Did you know that Frederick Augustus Gover was born in Shirley Southampton England? His parents were Louisa Pitt, born Wilton (1817-1869) and Charles Gover (1819 - ?) After his mothers death in 1869 Fred lived with his half sister Louisa Parker (nee Pitt) in St Denys Southampton. He is not in my direct line so I have only a few bits and pieces about him. Hope this helps.   Janet.
