Australia / Re: Julia Doyle 1836/7-1869

Wow! I have finally tracked her down it seems! I have managed to find some of the information on her children on familysearch.org.

Let me know if you need any information relating to English records.

I have the following:
Her father was James Doyle (b1806 Ireland), mother Mary Ann Doyle nee Burns (born 1816 Ireland) Julia was born 22nd June 1839 in Middlesex - I have her birth certificate.

From the 1841 census she is with her mother and father and brother Daniel and sister Mary, living at Number 6 off alley west. James is a stationer.

From the 1851 census she is in Croydon in a workhouse.

Thanks
Nicola

Hi there,

I am also trying to find Julia Doyle b1839 in Middlesex to James Doyle and Mary Ann Burns - they were both born in Ireland and moved to London. He is a stationer on the 1841 census. Not sure if that is a printer?

She was in a workhouse in Norwood in 1851 census, then she was moved to the St Martin's workhouse (Castle Street) in 1857.  Ancestry.co.uk have some of the workhouse records. She was on the Emma Eugenia in 1858. I got this information from a Vivienne Garforth who posted the information online, and have found the same girls all went on the ship together.

I have lost Julia after she was on the ship. I have been curious about the marriage as it seems to be the right time frame after her arrival.

I am descended from her brother - Daniel Doyle. There was another sister Mary, but I cannot find records of a Mary Doyle in London, too many! Her father was James Doyle and he was listed as deceased on Daniel's marriage certificate in 1853. Julia was listed as destitute on the workhouse records, so I am wondering if her parents both died. I am surprised that Daniel never took her in though. I am curious about the names of her children!

Are we talking about the same Julia?

Many thanks
Nicola

Lee,

glad you found the Holland line! I did hear a rumour that Francis Benjamin Jnr died in a suspicious manner. Do you have a newspaper clipping or death certificate?

My line is from George Alfred Holland - Francis Benjamin's son. How are you connected?

I do have a private tree on ancestry that I am willing to share with you. You can send me an email - *

I have a Rebecca Bussell baptised 1790 parents William and Elizabeth. I think this William was married to Elizabeth Weeks. Rebecca married John Holland. I would appreciate any more info you have on Rebecca.

Thanks

Thanks to all for more information. I will follow up the marriage lead, as it does seem to be a good link.

Thanks for all the help. I will try and find her father - Samuel and see if I can find what "farm" she was born at!

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Help reading 1851 census birth place

Hi,

I can't read the actual town or village for the Somerset address. It has been transcribed as Worth Laron, but I can't find this on a list of Somerset Parishes. If you want to see the actual census record it is:

HO107/1507/126 p 66.

Her name is Mary Wood - married to Christopher Wood (carpenter).

Thanks,
Nicola

On the London Marriages and Birth records:

William Burgess married Caroline Boucher

William is a "gentleman"  his father is William Burgess - cabinet maker
Caroline is a spinster and both are living at Cambridge Row. Her father is James Boucher and I think it reads "tallow chandler"

Witnesses - Thomas Barnes Jones and Wm Daniell

Marriage date is 21 Apr 1841 at Hackney St John.

I am researching a different William Burgess and came across your post. Better late than never eh!

Nicola
