Dee's Scavenger Hunt Part 2 (Everybody welcome to join in)

[jc26red]

Just realised it was the year before Bauer v Lennard (Which I can't find on TNA)

bet that has something to do with the divorce and getting stuff/money/house back!

Many thanks, JC! That's great.     

Another skeleton in the Bauer closet!     

But.....how do I go about finding out more? What would I have to do?

Any advice you can give me will be most welcome.......dee

So....summarising what has been found about Charlotte Elizabeth Bauer.....

Charlotte Elizabeth Bauer was born abt 1859 in Bloomsbury, London to Hugh Bauer and Charlotte Mary Osborne.

She married Joseph Cecil Lennard, a Provision Merchant,  in 1879 and by 1881 the couple were living in Battersea and had a 10 month old daughter Edith Margaret Lennard.

1891 sees Joseph Cecil Lennard as married, still living in Battersea, but at a different address, and daughter Edith Margaret is with him.

By 1901 Joseph  Cecil Lennard is living on his own means in Twickenham.  He is now listed as a widower. Daughter Edith Margaret is still with him.....and she is listed as Margaret Lennard Married but has a 9 month old daughter  Muriel Lennard.   

There's no sign of wife Charlotte Elizabeth in either the 1891 or the 1901 Census and we can't scavenge her up. Nor can we find her death.

BUT.....JC  has found that there was a Divorce Court Proceedings, and two men were named. One is a Tom Allat, but unfortunately, the other is is named John Brown.

So....is Charlotte with one of them in 1891 and 1901.....or with someone else?   
Or did she too go to Canada when her family went between 1886 and 1891?

Still answers to find.....

Dee do you have access to The Times online?

[deeiluka]

Not any more.....   

I know there was another court case involving Charlotte's father Hugh Bauer....someone sent me the copy some time ago....but no date on it!

I didn't manage to find it.

I just did a search for Hugh Bauer in the Times Online, but it didn't throw anything up 

enjoy your read

JC.....my meal can wait...this is too amazing.... Have read the divorce report once but need to read it again more slowly!     

Can I ask you another favour? Could you search fror Williams v Osborne?
It was in the Vice Chancellors Court before Sir W P Wood Dec 15th but no idea of the year. It would have probably been between 1860  and 1988 as Hugh Bauer died in 1886. I really would lke to know the year....
