Berkshire Completed Look ups / Re: SAVAGE - St Nicholas Newbury baptism 1802
« on: Tuesday 24 September 24 07:12 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for your quick response Alan.

William & Harriett married in Westminister London 1798 & moved to Lambeth Surrey some time after their 2 sons were born in Newbury in 1802 & about 1806. They do not appear in Toomers 1815 Newbury census.

William died in Lambeth Surrey in 1824 (I've found 2 possible burials in 1824).

The burial in 1834 at Newbury could possibly be my William's father or may just be a coincidence.

Regards, Tawyn

Berkshire Completed Look ups / SAVAGE - St Nicholas Newbury baptism 1802 *COMPLETED*
« on: Tuesday 24 September 24 01:03 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,
As the St Nicholas, Newbury baptism registers are not available online I am hoping for a lookup for any additional info in the baptism entry of:
    1802   Benjamin Trayler SAVAGE/SAVIDGE

I have found him in 2 online indexes - one mistranscribed as Benjamin TRAYLER and listing only mother: Harriot.
His parents married in 1798 and his father died about 1824.
I understand the registers are in bad condition so this may be why a father was not listed in the index.
If anyone is able to help it would be much appreciated.
Regards, Tawyn

Many thanks candrjm.
While there is a William Savage in there, it definitely doesn't look like mine but you are right, could be a father.

The front of the baptism register for that period says that the burial register was kept, but it doesn't seem to be on ancstry or indexed on the non-conformists bmdregisters websites.

Berkshire Completed Look ups / Savidge/Savage in Toomer's 1815 Newbury Census
« on: Tuesday 07 July 20 14:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi All,
Hoping someone can see if there is a William & Harriett Savidge/Savage in the 1815 Newbury Census.

William Savidge & Harriett Traylor married in London in 1798, but their sons Benjamin Traylor Savidge & James Traylor Savidge were born in Newbury about 1803 & 1806 respectively from later censuses - no baptism records for either son yet found.  Both sons married in London in 1826 and stayed there but I'm wondering if the family were still in Newbury in 1815 and an occupation & age for William would be a great bonus.
Thanks, Tawyn

Wiltshire / Re: William STONE & Martha (unknown)

Hi All,

Updated info on Lydia, mother of George William Iles as the wrong info is on this thread.
Lydia is not the daughter of Lancelot Iles as he died in May 1836, even though he is listed as her father on her marriage to William Stone.

After much searching I have finally located Lydia's birth certificate which reads:
DOB: 2 November 1838 at Saltford    Name: Lydia Miller Iles Miller     female
Father: Edmund Miller (carpenter)   Mother: Tryphena Ollis formerly Iles now Miller.
Informant: Mother made mark. Registration district: Newton St Loe in Keynsham.

Although Tryphena states she is married to Edmund Miller, I have not yet found a marriage between them and when she does marry again in 1842, her surname is listed as Iles not Miller.

Hi All,

I've just had George William Eyles birth certificate arrive today. Details:

When & where born: 27/2/1856 Workhouse in district Lyncombe & Widcombe Bath Somerset
Father: blank
Mother: Lydia Eyles living at the Workhouse Bath
Informant: Lydia made her mark. (illiteracy would explain spellings of Eyles and Iles - both were
                                                       used by various families around Bath)

I now have no doubt this is our young William Iles/Stone.  I guess we will never know if William Stone was actually his father or just step father.

The short version of what happened to him after 1871 census:
At about 15/16 he walked from near Bath (Trowbridge I suppose) to London looking for work.
He found work as a french polisher once there and was employed in that field at the time of his marriage to Annie Brand in 1874. They had 7 children, the oldest being Annie Lydia Iles my great grandmother.
He later sold soft furnishings & lino through the streets of London from a barrow.
A number of years later he started a shop called "G.W. Iles & Sons" selling soft furnishings, linos, rugs etc. By the time of his retirement he had expanded the business to several shops.  George died 1947 Battersea London.

Thanks Muffin had forgotten that one.
Looks promising George William Eyles and I know mine is illegitimate, which is generally what the missing maiden name means.
