Kathleen/Kitty Gore

Hi Catherine,
Yes I would like to see the details please.
I would very much like to visit her grave.
There is a Routledge family plot at Carlisle cemetery but I do not suppose anyone at the garlands knew about it.
Thank you
Carol

I am also trying to find out about kitty's life, by the age of 9 she was living with her aunt Margaret Ellen Routledge at 8 Hartington place, Carlisle. I know her father James died 5th of feb 1909 but am unsure about her mother Elizabeth Routledge formerly Weightman. I am presuming she died but have been unable to find her. I know James and Elizabeth married o/n/d 1899 in Carlisle but struggled to find them in the 1901 census although I did find a James and Elizabeth with a son James in Elswick Durham. Another puzzler Margaret Ellen's sister Sarah Elizabeth Routledge was living with her Aunt Harriett Hay at 104 Windsor Road, Southport, also living their was my grandmother Nora Marguerite and a Jas Proudfoot Routledge age 11 which is the right age for the son of the James and Elizabeth at Durham.
Could he be a brother to Kitty?
Any thought appreciated.

Hi Carol

Looks like it's Ernest.

With a date that close I can find the entry in the burial registers at Carlidsle Cemetery really easily, assuming there's a copy here which i'm pretty sure there is.

FRrom the burial index I can find the position of the grave really easily as they have a brilliant map and Carlisle Cemetery is an amazing place and brilliantly kept and planted - in case anyone hasn't been.

I've a load of photo's back there.

Only thing is, I'm not sure quite hhow soon I'll be going back - qhite soon.  If no one does it first I'll take a photo if you'd like.  I have an errand there I must do as soon as \i get chance anyway.

Best wishes

I would like to visit his grave if I know where to go.
I have found a Sarah Proudfoot who married a Matthew Weightman in 1874, so perhaps I am on the right track, still not sure if James Proudfoot Routledge and Kathleen Routledge are siblings but it is looking likely.
Thanks everyone.

PS

I don't know if you're aware, but don't get  too excited about other information.

I've solved aboput five generationbs of my family from one Lancashire grave, but heree, the graves are only for two people - something to do with the soil - so you don't get long lists of names.

Some people do though, purchaser adjacent graves to other family members, and also, some families have erected one large stone on one grave with memorials to other family members buried all over the cemetery and beyond!

If you can get the info quicker and for free, great, but if not, the offer still stands.

Berst wishes

I have found a Ernest and an Ellen Gore living with their parents Henry and Sarah in Seaforth Lancashire, plus other siblings. I also found a marriage between a Nellie Clark and Ernest Gore in Reading 1916 (2c 760). Not sure whether Nellie is his wife or sister.
Back to my searching!!

That looks interesting - there was a GORE (Clark) birth in Carlisle in 1923. - that child died the same year.

I have found the birth of the child. I also found an Ernest Gore living as a boarder at 74 Melville Place, Liverpool, and he was a booksellers assistant, hopefully that is my Ernest. Born St Saviours, Reading in 1911.

That's the one I found yesterday.  It was his occupation that made me suggest Reading as his birthplace.  If you hadn't said he had a bookshop, I wouldn't have suggested him.

I couldn't help noticing the coincidence that his father worked at a biscuit factory in Reading (Huntley and Palmer's) and Ernie moved to Carlisle where there was Carr's biscuit factory.

It doesn't look as if his father moved with the job
