CARTER family from Paulton somerset.

[toni*]

maybe the PR's will show that as even if a woman was married her husbands name would be shown if he was the father or not on birth certs. - i dont know about widowed mothers.

i came across one entry in the PR's of a baptisim of a child by his / her mother and the person has written thatthe mother reputes the fatehr to be her husband who has been away serving for over a year now and so this cannot be the case - although it doesnt actaully say who the father is.

Further to last post Mary (Ann) was actually 11 in 1851, I believe the age (4) was wrongly transcibed from the original page.  Yes I also think that John Prior was Elizabeths father.  No clear record of John Prior after 1851, at least nothing in Wales.  I don't know if Elizabeth took his name when Rebecca married.

The John Badger 1817 had a father John Badger and mother Ann, so I don't think that this is a sibling for James.  There is a Charles Badger 1829 son of Edward and Maria (could easily be wrongy transcibed from Martha) baptised in the same church as James Badger.   However whilst this quite rewarding for the Badger line it is not helping sort out who Georges parents were.

On An..ry the larceny cases are as follows
1816 Summer Assizes Jacob Carter 18 month imprisonment
1808 Summer Assizes George CARTER  No bill discharged
1818 Lent Larceny George Carter No bill
16 Oct 1843 County Sessions Taunton George age 27 3months imprisonment (born 1816)
11 Jan 1841 County Adjourned Session George CARTER age 23 Not guilty (born 1818)
26 June 1843 County sessions George CARTER age 20 10 weeks imprisonment (born1823)
26 Mar 1865 Lent Assises George CARTER no age given 2 previous convictions for felony10 months imprisonment

So the Jacob looks like Jacob baptised:
120   25 Dec 1815   Jacob   M   James   Hannah   CARTER      Paulton   Coalminer
But the Georges can't be sorted from the dates given there are 5 between 1814-1817  8 born between 1816-1819  one in 1820 then nothing till our 2 in 1827 and thats just Paulton Georges and these court cases covered the whole of Somerset
your George has a child born Sep qtr 1866 so if 10 month meant 10 months then not as now so when in the September quarter was little George born July Aug or Sep that could prove your George Innocent or keep him in the picture for the prosoner I doubt if this your George he has all but one child born in Gelligaer so why would he be committing crime in Somerset?

Yes you are right Ray looking at the image it is 11 not 4 thanks for that Annoying but I have to go and replenish the cupboards at Mr S..ry's establishment or we don't eat tonight Keep up the good work folks

Hi all.  Can I clear up something please?

Julia Carter (b. 1857), who married George Almond (my Great Grandparents) was the daughter of George Carter and Elizabeth, nee Chapman.  George Carter's parents were Joseph and Mary, nee Bull, and HIS parents were Joseph and Prudence, nee Bennett.

Hope that helps!

All the best,

Colin Hunt

Colin is an old aquaintance and has the relivant certificates and family knowledge so it was indeed Susanna's Julia who married James Badger Carter so where was that Julia in 1881 she seems to have evaporated

I don't know if this is relevant, but there was a Julia Emma Carter, married to a James, living up the road in Bitton in 1881 - both born in High Littleton circa 1856 and 1853 respectively.

Thanks Colin,
I've asked if anyone can look at the marriage entry for the Martyr marriage that should show if she was a widow and if her father was known.
I am sure she isn't the Julia (TAYLOR)married to William George Carter in case anyone finds them they have a child born in 1888 after the Merthyr marriage
