We have a problem
« on: Monday 11 February 08 10:55 GMT (UK) »
My Mother's paternal Grandfather, William Chidgey Newick (b Bristol 1851 - 1903) married Lois Rebecca Duckworth (b Leicester 1872 - ?) sometime in the 1890's.

This was his second marriage - his first wife Jane (surname unknown, b Bristol 1851 - ?) died also in the 1890's)

We have found a death record for a Lois Rebecca Newick of 1898 – is this her?

The dilemma is that William and somebody had 4 children - Ivy Blanche L 1892 - 1994) William Christmas (1893 - ?) Louis Wilfred Gladstone (1895 - 1886) and Frederick Victor Harcourt (? – 1863 - my Grandfather)

Are these 4 children from the union of the first or second marriage or a bit of both.?

As a bit of a twist before dying Ivy told her Niece, Kathlean Dixey (still living) that she had a bit of a secret, but unfortunately never divulged it!!

Can anyone help please. Also can anyone fill in the missing dates - BMD and surname of Jane

Strange enough, I can see William and Jane in 1891 without any children - would they have started making kids at 40+?  :-\

I can't see a marriage for Lois Rebecca Duckworth  :-\ Bit mysterious!

If they belonged to me, I'd get hold of one of the children's birth certs! :P

Maybe he never married Lois

Is he the William Newick, widower, aged "45", traveller for printer's firm b Bristol who is a lodger in Norwich in 1901?

RG13/1840 folio 46 p42

I know this would understate his age, but his age was also understated at death (Dec 1904 West Ham aged 49)
