Sinkins

[Kittykat1898]

Does anyone have a connection with the Sinkins family of Shoreditch London in the early 1900's? I am especially looking for an Arthur Frederick Sinkins who was born on the 10th or 11th of November 1901. He married a lady called Mary Madeline (surname unknown). I think that Arthur was one of nine children none of who's names are known as yet neither is the birth order. I would dearly like to find out who his parents were and his siblings.
Can anyone help....Please.

Hi,

This looks like the birth registration of Arthur:

SINKINS  Arthur Frederick  Dec qtr   1901   Shoreditch 1c 111 (   found on www.freebmd.org.uk)

Using those details you can buy a copy of the certificate which will show the names of his parents, address and occupation of father.  You could then use that information to look for the family on 1901 census; which might show other children, unless Arthur was the firstborn.

Certificates can be ordered on line at www.gro.gov.uk and cost £7.

I had a look for other Sinkins births in Shoreditch:

Florence Maud  Jun qtr 1895

Beatrice Caroline Sep qtr 1897

Lilian    Sep qtr  1899

Edith May  Mar qtr 1904

Doris Violet    Jun  qtr 1906

Could all or some be yours?

Thank you for that Nanny Jan. I had in fact just found that birth registration for Arthur. The possible sibling births you found tie in with a 1901 census registration I found, how I wish Arthur was born at the beginning of 1901 and not the end!
