The Rossi Family - I'm in a knot!! COMPLETED

[tilly56]

Help needed please to help me sort out a member of my Rossi branch -

Frederick Orton Rossi was born in 1811.  I have found a marriage to Patience Hockey in 1838 and have them in the 1851 census (He is given as Fredk Arton), living in St Marylebone.  I can't find them in 1841.  She was born in Glastonbury, Somerset.

In 1871,  I have a Patience Rossi in the Saint Pancras workhouse - I think she is given as Widower,  but it is difficult to read. (RG10 - 87 - 12)  I cannot find her in 1861, or her death (I looked for the death on FreeBMD).

However, I have Frederick Rossi in 1861 (RG9 - 59 - 39) (definitely the same one as he was a sculptor) - and his wife is given as Susan, born in Maidenhead Kent.

In 1871, he is lodging in Brentford- he is married. (RG10 - 33 - 3)

 I have found a Frederick Rossi who died in Brentford in 1876, aged 65 - the age fits.

I would be very grateful for help filling in the gaps and untying the knot!

Many thanks

Tilly

Frederick looks like he is here in 1841 as Ross.

On Ancestry he is transcribed as Frederick ROPE

Hello Sue and Tati

Thank you for your help (again!) - I have found the census with Patience in 1841, but I have searched and searched and cannot find Ross(i) in 1841  - Are there any other names on the census?  I don't know where I'm going wrong - I've gone through 800 Ross names and have now reached Reach!

If he had divorced Patience, would there be a record of it somewhere ?

Thanks again

Tilly

Hello Tilly

I too have searched for Frederick in 1841 with the ref that Sue gave and cannot see him anywhere 

Can you give us a bit more of a clue Sue 

Can't see ANY Frederick Ross in Marylebone in 1841?

Hi Carol

Apologies I had the numbers wrong, have now amended above post. I think the image is clearly Rossi.

Ah ha Sue,that's better 

Yes totally agree with you- I think it should read Rossi too- and he's a sculptor.

Shout if you need more help Tilly.
