Thanks

Fairly certain there’s a link as an Arthur W Underhill b. 1865 Mayfield, Sussex is living in Kemsing in 1881 & Alice/Sarah Ann’s parents William & Kezia had moved there between 1881- 1891.  Alice was with them in 1881 but haven’t found her in 1891.  Still can’t find a death for an Arthur Underhill between their marriage in 1897 & the 1901 CR.  Alice or should that be Sarah Ann or is leading me a merry dance.

I think this is her in 1891, bad transcriptions, same person,


Halling, Kent

anc.      Sarah Ann HOUSDEN    22     Wrotham, Kent

FindMyPast.  Sarah Ann  HOMDEN     22   Northam, Kent     


It is Halling in Strood RD not Malling.

She really has tried to make it hard to find her

I think this could be the death of Arthur William UNDERHILL, the newspaper clipping seems to have his DOB wrong but the other details fit his life, odd that it doesn't mention a wife,

Brilliant - it certainly fits her claim to being a widow in 1901. He was obviously using William rather than Arthur.

The 1891CR definitely says Homden - amazing how easily the names get corrupted but then I was taught to write with a nib & real ink🤣
