Theresa Edith/Ellen GREEN, m.1881 Joshua Davy, Adelaide
« on: Friday 13 August 10 23:21 BST (UK) »
I'm seeking information about Theresa Edith Green, b. Jun1863 Camberwell England.

Theresa married Joshua Batty Davy, 25Jul1881 Adelaide registry Office. They had three children:
Lemuel Edward Greene Davy b.14Dec1881
Lilly Maud Davy b. 1883
Edgar Walter Davy b. 1885

UK FreeBMD records Theresa's birth at Camberwell Vol 1d, page 515, but of course gives no details of parentage. Family records suggest she was the daughter of Edward William (Southouse/Catoir) Green and Mary Ann Green (nee Pritchitt) of Clerkenwell, London.

However, recent work on this forum at
 http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,469302.0.html suggests that Edward William Southouse Green may have died c.Jun1858, an event that fits neatly with other aspects of the family history.

Edward William and Maryann Green had two other daughters (Ada Kate b.1854 and Jessie Martha b. 1858) for whom there are ample records on the web (FamilySearch etc).

Given that Theresa's birth details challenge other family data I'd appreciate any help you can offer that might confirm or dispute any of these names, dates and relationships.

Thanks as usual

The Theresa E with Mary Ann as mother is shown in 1871 census as born, Barking Essex.

So there are 2 Theresa E's much the same age.

Aniph

The 1871 census entry for Theresa E Green with Mary Ann as a mother .... born in Barking Essex matches another entry I have.

 ... is there any mention of her age, her father or her siblings?

Unfortunately no BISA entry for this family, nor do I see her death to see if her age is consistant. Also not spotting an assisted arrival. The only Theresa GREEN born in SA (1858) had a father Thomas.
