Info needed on William Feuster "COMPLETED WITH THANKS"

[AMBLY]

Hi Ruby

Re: the 1861 Census from Jorose above:

The full location is: Parish  of Clifton
Dau: Emily's place of birth is Stapleton (which falls under the regsitration district of Clifton)
Head: William's place of birth in full, is  given as Bristol, Gloster
Wife: Catherine's age may actually be 28, rather than 25 - it's not 100% certain either way, but I tend toward 28

So,  William born abt 1836/1837 Redcliff Bristol Gloster
Catherine born abt 1833-1836 Basingstoke Hants
Charlotte born abt 1831 Basingstoke Hants, according to the 1871 and 1881 (but see next message)

What prompted a re-look at 1861 was finding the following in 1841 - I believe your William age 5, with his parents and siblings. Note this is yet another spelling variation!

1841: Parish of Stapleton, Hundred of Barton Regis, Gloucestershire
Ref: HO107 /  Piece 378 / Book: 13 / Folio 58 / Pg 11
Address: Freeland Cottages
John FUESTER 40, Labourer - N
Ann FUESTER 30 - Y
Joseph FUESTER 7 - N
William FUESTER 5 - N
Jane FUESTER 15 - Y
Maryann FUESTER 3 - N
Hannah FUESTER 3 days old - Y
and the also in the house is:
Elizabeth VEN 80, Nurse - N

The enumerator has listed all the male children first, then the females, each in descending order of age. There is a big gap between Jane and the next eldest though - this may indicate other children not in the house (boys of age to be  working away, or deceased, or perhaps even that Ann is a second wife and Jane is John's from an earlier marriage. Or that Jane is not a daughter but maybe a sister or other relative - though in that case  maybe she would have been more likely to be listed 2nd to last - before Elizabeth VEN but after the children of the (presumed) couple, John & Ann.

Regarding the newborn baby, Hannah - I wonder if the parents had a change of heart about her name or else she was enumerated incorrectly - because the only FreeBMD birth I ca see is a Sarah FEUSTER in Jun Qtr 1841 Clifton RD - everything fits to be Hannah of 1841, apart from the name.

Elizabeth VEN is probably there in capacity of Midwife to mother and babe - she may even be a relative.

Probably now, the 1858 Marriage to Catherine, the 1865 Death of Catherine and the 1867 marriage to Charlotte, would be helpful to establish ages, father's names & occupations, witness' and informants. As well as, as Jorose says, to establish the relationship of Charlotte to both William and Catherine

Hi Ambly,

Hi Ruby

I did get your email too, but I replied to it by PM - which of course I now know you probably lost as the whole site went down just after I sent it!  I was having the same problems as you had mentioned, I thought it was me that made all those blue "advertising' words appear by clicking a button I shouldn't have! 

I've just found Charlotte in 1901 too, I think - not as I had hoped, visiting daughter Kate....hang on, just typing up details for you!

Cheers

Thanks Ambly,
                  For letting me know about the site, i thought my PC was playing up but it's still underlining certain words now, madness ah.

Hi Ruby,

Yes, apparently the blue words are some sort of 'experiment' by Trystan (Rootschat Boss) and yesterday we lost forever all posts and messages made during a few hours in the afternoon  Still, in the schem of things - I guess these things will happen !

(surname looks a bit like FENSTER)
1901: Winchester St Thomas, Hampshire
Ref: RG13 /  Piece 1081 /  Folio: 48 /  pg 15
Address: 24 Priory Street
Head: Henry SHARP 68, Restaurant Proprietor - own account, b Leckford Hants
Wife: Sarah SHARP 60, b Longstock Hants
Dau: Elizabeth SHARP 25, unm, Shop Assistant Restaurant, b Leckford Hants
Dau: Maude SHARP 16, unm, Waitress, b Leckford Hants
Lodger: George TEASDALE 15, unm,  Baker Bread - Worker, b Romsey Hants
Lodger: George H LONGMAN 19, unm, Baker Bread - Worker, b Andover Hants
Visitor: Charlotte FEUSTER 73, married, Living on own means, b Basingstoke

The 1901 for Charlotte - her age makes a birth about 1828, which is in keeping with the Death regsitration - so perhaps either by 1901 she had given up the pretence, or someone in the SHARP household knew how old she really was

Ambly cheers mate,
                           For all  the work you've put into it plus i hope the surname as'nt been to much of a nightmare, i've never seen one change so much.
I've personally sent a message about the printing off.

  Thankyou again and it's realy appreciated.
          Best Wishes

Another wee bit of the jigsaw:

Looks like the christening of William's sister as per the 1841 Census:

IGI:
Mary Ann FUESTER christened 13 Jan 1839 St Marys, Bristol, Gloucester
Parents John FUESTER and Ann
