Elizabeth Elilza Sparshott

[Milliepede]

Not sure where to go either   

Currently looking at possible baptisms in Sussex and whilst this isn't her another spelling popped up of

Spashett/Spashott

Are there any other documents that might yield a scrap of information?  Any other newspaper reports or have we exhausted those. 

[Milliepede]

Other children I can see
Harold Henry Farran Sparshott June 1898- Sep 1899 possible

Just wondering, if that was their child, if the "Farran" name could be a clue?

Hi Milliepede

I did wonder if the child with Farran in the forename was Mr Farrans  child, but he did not marry Miss Sparshott. There were Farran families in the Wandsworth area at the time.

Kind regards

On the 1901 Elizabeth is recorded as being Ellen and married to John

Has Martin got any of the early birth certificates, particularly that of Edith Minnie?
Is her name Elizabeth on them?
I don't see a baptism for Edith (I may have missed it of course), we don't know where exactly she was  born, where they were living. They were "visitors" in 1901.

Possibly Elizabeth was illegitimate herself? She may have been told her father was a Sparshott, and later used the name?

Hi Jonwarrn

I do not have birth certificates for any of this branch of the family, but I do have the following:

Sparshott, Edith Minnie Warwick born 1900 in the Oct Dec quarter in the district of Wandsworth, Vol 1D Page 625, no mothers maiden name given. No mention of Elizabeth.

Regards

Martin

[softly softly]

Info only, Edith Minnie Warwick Sparshott was born 9.10.1900 @ 54 Webbs Road, Battersea, mother Elizabeth Eliza nee' Sparshott, no father listed. She did marry George T Nunn in 1922, appears as M Nunn in 1939 with that dob and probably dies aged 67 in 1968 Wandsworth.

Oh wow, well done again SS.
So Elizabeth Eliza from the start.

On FreeBMD the only one of those in Brighton in the time frame is E E Hotchkiss, June 1875.

Her mmn was Hall, mother Mary Ann Hall, father Thomas. Thomas died 1887, Elizabeth Eliza appears in 1901/11 as Lizzie Hotchkiss, not our lady.

Oh well, another idea bites the dust!

Not sure where to go either

We are probably running out of options.
Perhaps this one is going to defeat us
