Neville

[stuck62]

Looking for anything of Charles Roland Neville born Feb 24, 1873 in Hackney workhouse in London.  He married Ethel G. Pring Dec 1899 in Middlesex.  They had three children Montague, Gordon Charles and Edward J.  They came to Canada around 1910 but returned for a visit and had to stay due to the war.  Charles joined Royal Irish Regiment  Looking for any info on these people for another family member.

Hi
I can find no references for a Charles Neville on the 1881 census nor the 1891 census.
There is only 1 Ethel G Pring and she was not born until 1880 - so not likely.
Most peculiar.

Cannot find the birth of Charles either.
Do you have the correct surname - ie Neville?
or better still, do I?

Hello Cougar

Now how is a person suppose to think about family when I see those beautiful tigers in the pictures.  I have noticed them before and they are the most beautiful creatures going.  Actually any feline is.  That's all I have around my place are prints of tiger, cougars etc.  Your a very lucky person if you get to work with them.

Anyway thanks for looking up the Neville name and yes that is the name.  So far all that I have found it the marriages registers confirming that Ethel Gertrude Pring married Charles Roland Neville.  It was registered Oct, Nov, Dec of 1899, in Islington District, vol 1b, pg 617.

I found Ethel's in the 1881 census for Chipstable, Somerset, England as well.  But all I have found is a Charlie Neville registered in Jan- Mar 1873, in Hackney, vol 1b, pg503.  But I can't confirm this is who I am looking for.  I was told he was born in a workhouse so he may not be registered.  Apparently his mother married someone named William Adams in 1874.  Of course I didn't know what was meant by a workhouse. 

Anyway thanks for looking, my search continues.  Actually it's not mine, I'm trying to help out a family members husband find his roots.  I did just hear that they came back to Canada after the first war, in 1919.

Enjoy the big cats.

Hi Shelley and I wish I worked with them - that was my birthday present last year - playing with the Tigers in northern Thailand.
As for the workhouse records, go to this site - at the bottom of the page is the email address if you can't find it on there - just ask them

The Ellen Pring you found in Chipstable is the same as I found - but from last night's memory (which could be faulty) wasn't she around 10 years too young?
What was Charles's mothers name? was it Jane?

Hello again

Wrong info, the Ethel Gertrude Pring I found was in birth registration Jul, Aug, Sept 1879. District Barton R. vol 6a, pg 193.

Not sure of Charles mother's name, I will have to email and ask, do you have a hunch on this Jane?

Must call it a night, have to work at 9a.m. and it's 1:14 a.m. here now.

Nice birthday present you got. Someone loves you.

Thanks again, talk soon

Shelley
