Job PETERS

[PtE]

Hi,
The GRO index shows a death registration for Job Peters M1946 New Forest 02B page 1314 but the age given is 80 whereas Job would have been 88, so not sure if this is the correct one.
Also there is a death registration for Fanny Annie Peters D1904 Swindon 05A page 18. Her age is given as 33 so born circa 1871.

Correction :- Job would have been 86 in 1946.

They are in North Lopham, Hampshire in 1861 (Hard to make out where Thomas is from, somewhere in Hampshire; Kezia/Ann is from Dean, Hampshire):

Thomas PETERS    26   (chimney sweep)
Ann PETERS           19
Job PETERS              1
RG9/687 pg94

They are in Nether Wallop, Hampshire in 1861 RG9/687 Folio 94 Page 21.  Top of page says List of persons not in houses

You're absolutely correct Rosie. I don't know why, Ancestry has the image under "1861 census, Hampshire, North Lopham, All, District 7", which is what I looked at on the computer screen rather than the actual image.

Also there is a death registration for Fanny Annie Peters D1904 Swindon 05A page 18. Her age is given as 33 so born circa 1871.

The 1901 census has her age as 45, so born c1856.

Looking at the children on the 1901 census, I think these are their birth registrations:

Esther JONES  Mar qtr 1875 Kingsclere (2c/224)
                         (bap 19 Nov 1876 at Baughurst, mother: Fanny JONES)

Ellen JONES  Jun qtr 1881 Basingstoke (2c/189)
                       (bap 4 Dec 1881 at Basingstoke, mother: Fanny JONES, as "Helen JONES")

Job Walter PETERS  Sep qtr Stockbridge (2c/95) mmn JONES  - not sure about this, but it seems the best fit?

Kezia PETERS  Jun qtr 1890  Alton (2c/150) mmn JONES
                         (bap 21 Sept 1890 at Bentley, father: Job, mother: Frances)

Susan Diana PETERS  Sep qtr 1896  Alton (2c/180) mmn JONES

There may be other children, but having trouble finding the family on other census records.

Hi Mardy ive been looking into the Peters side of my family again and I spoke to my aunty who seems to think that they went to Hampshire from Wales..... I haven't found any link to Wales do you know anything about it?
I found a Thomas Peters who was baptised at Leckford Hampshire in 1831 who was married to Kezziah/ Kevin Bull and his mother was called Lucy i don't have a surname for her.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello Diane,

I can't readily see any Welsh connection, though it is certainly a difficult family to find.

There are a number of trees on Ancestry which have Thomas's mother as Lucy and the baptism you suggest, but they have no more sources for this claim than the 1861 census and the baptism. Whilst the 1861 census does have Thomas's place of birth as Hampshire, I can't make out the place, it is not Leckford, others may know what/where it is?

If his mother was Lucy PETERS, this looks like her in the 1861 at Burbage, Wiltshire:

Lucy PETERS        48    K.N (not sure what this place of birth is supposed to be - "unkonwn"?)
Edward                   22   Wilts K.N.
Matilda HUGHES   60   K.N.
Ellen                      12   Berks K.N
Ann                        11
Mary A                   12
William                    4
RG9/1309/ 32 pg23

and in 1871 at Burbage:
Edward PETERS       34    Burbage (servant)
George                      32
Lucy                          60    not known
Caroline WHITTACK [?]  20
Nehemiah COOPER   2m
RG10/1941/62 pg29

I can't find a birth registration for Edward or George in Wiltshire.
