Hi all ,

 I am doing some research for a friend regarding a baby boy born at St Teresa maternity hospital . The baby was born in 1959 , according to my friend , the baby was left at the hospital when he was only a few days/ weeks old . I am trying to find out if this story is true and if so , would I be able to find out from hospital records / staff .

Thank you

London and Middlesex / Re: Baptisms

Hi

I read the Pall Mall article about Robert James Padwick and Margaret,if what the articles says is true about attempted murder I can understand Robert dropping the Joseph Bown and having Edmund instead.

In the 1841 I found a Robert Bowen not Bown living in Tothill Street,but there was also a Jo/Jos and a Jas Bowen,I dont think this is my Robert somehow,also I cant find him in the 1851 census,1861,1871 or any other census,I gather you saw the baptism record for Robert Joseph Bown Padwick,what i did find interesting was his parents are Padwick and Padwick,how come there first names were not noted/or who was the person who brought  Robert to be baptised?Could be his new adoptive parents possibly?Family relative,Robert would not have gone by himself he was only 8,bless him!!

What is interesting too is that both Margaret and Robert Jr call their father Robert Edmund/Edwin on their marriage certificates as well.

London and Middlesex / Baptism records at St Andrew/Whats in a name???/Padwicks in Middlesex
« on: Thursday 08 April 10 21:24 BST (UK)  »
To check Bastardy Records would it best to go to St Andrew Holborn or Parish records for Holborn??

Robert Joseph Bown Padwick (born in April 1829) also named his son Robert Joseph Bown Padwick born 15th Sept 1853 which I found interesting because with Robert Snr being illegitimate,i would of thought he would want to hide the fact.

I believe what Nigel says about the 4 names,in those days without directly pointing the finger at the fathers,the mothers would name the child with the father name in the child name.The Irony of all this is that with this ancestor  I thought with such a name hey he would be so easy to find,he has turned out to be the most elusive,other than the marriage certficate,two birth certficate of his 2 children he untraceable!!!

Interesting his son Robert (born 1853) started calling himself Robert Edmund/Edwin Padwick on his marriage,his children birth certficates,his sister marriage certfifcate and on his death certificate he is called Robert Edmund Padwick.

Thanks about the suggestions regarding Guildford,but for the time being i plan to stay in the Middlesex Area as this is where my Padwicks seem to stay until my grand dad Fred moves to Willesden in 1928.



Although I have found no more records of Robert Joseph Bown Padwick after 1860,his last known record is on his daughter birth certificate Margaret Selina Padwick,he is recorded as her father Robert Joseph Bown Padwick
