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

James, I haven't followed the Osborne family further back as they are not blood relatives. That is odd about the Turl...one would think it might be a family surname from along the line somewhere.

Oh....I now know of course where Emma Hanks, grandaughter,  who was with Joseph and Eliza Babb Blades in 1871, fits......but there is a Fred Hankes, grandson , c 1875 Clapton who has me beat.

I haven't checked the census extract but it seems likely from first glance that he's a son of William Thomas Hawkes and Emma Hanks.  They married on 12 October 1872 at St. Mark, Old Street, Shoreditch.

Therefore he's a Hawkes, not a Hanks.

Edit: here you go

Frederick George Hawkes

Baptism     22 Nov 1874 - Christ Church, Clapton

There are other children from this marriage too.

I wonder if Marion died in childbirth ...she seems so young. There are also a few Priest children born and died in Lambeth in 1866 the year she died.

Thanks, James, for finding the Hanks/Hawkes combination.......no wonder Frederick was hard to find! I'll follow that up later today. 


Oh, well done Deb, finding Frederick James Blades/Blader in 1841!     

But he's still missing after the marriage in 1848 at which he was a witness... . ..until 1879!!!!!         


Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Hi Dee

 urk!!!! FJB is driving me nuts... the child may not be his but I cannot even spot Ernest in 1881!!!!!

I found a Walter Blades on a passenger list to New York in 1865 ..he was 35 . There was a Jacob Blades aswell, aged 19 ..couldn't see the connection between walter and Jacob so assumed it was not him. Can't see any Walter on the 1870 USA census, although there are uite a few Blades b England in the US in 1870.

BTW ... I thought everyone would be able to spell "Priest" LOL ...see Marion's death

I've seen it spelt that way somewhere too, Deb! 

I just checked the Victorian records in case one of the boys followed Sarah Anne out there when she joined Francois. No luck though.
