Hi folks. I hope someone can help me - I am looking for Frederick and Ellen Skinner along with their daughter Dorothy Annie in the 1901 census. In 1893 they were at 24 Martindale Road, Balham (sub district Streatham) Wandsworth. I do not know if there are any other children in this family or not because I have only just found them! Dorothy Annie was my maternal grandmother, who died in 1932 , and it has taken me 5 years to ensure that I have the right woman as the age was wrong on the death certificate!!!!
Thank you to anyone who can help

Sorry, just something that I should have mentioned was the fact that Dorothy Annie was born in 1893.

GlitterBaby

GlitterBaby Report 5 Aug 2010 16:04

I presumed the date of birth was 1893 from the information given which I thought was from a birth cert

GlitterBaby

GlitterBaby Report 5 Aug 2010 16:09

What is the occupation of Frederick from the birth cert?

What is the maiden name of Ellen from the birth cert?

Dawn

Dawn Report 5 Aug 2010 16:12

He was a general labourer. Her maiden name was Harvey

Not found anything for Dorothy

Dawn

Dawn Report 5 Aug 2010 16:38

This is quite interesting as my mum was born in 1924 to Dorothy who already had a daughter called Bridget Mary, but one of my mums middle names was Lily. My mum reckoned that she could remember her grandad coming to visit when she was in the childrens home in 1932. It is quite possible that Frederick died and Ellen remarried

In 1916 Dorothy was at 15 Hartfield Place, Northfleet when she had her 1st daughter (she was unmarried, a domestic servant ) and she was still there in 1924 when she had my mum. So this is a possibility. .

so it looks like Ellen had a sister called Mary Ann, and she took Dorothy in, maybe when Frederick died?

George henry treadwell married Frances Louise Bevis/Beavis in Strood kent 1895 she died in 1902.Her parents were Thomas and Alice Beavis.

Walter Burton Treadwell born 13/6/1906 in Wandsworth 1d 620 he died June 1995.
He was the son of Ellen and George Henry Treadwell.

He may have married O.N/D 1932 Wandsworth Lilian M Fuller to Walter B Treadwell. 1d 1139

1911 it says Ellen Treadwell married,when you view original it says she is a widow.

Hi Mary
Back from work now!
Thank you for the info- it is well confusing.

Who would have thought that asking about 1901 census would lead to all this!
From what I understand just quickly reading through it is- Ellen Harvey married Frederick Skinner and when he died she remarried to George Henry Treadwell who was the widower of her niece Frances Bevis. Forgive me for being stupid but is William Harvey my gggrandfather?
Dawn

Mary Report 6 Aug 2010 09:58

Yes thats right Dawn,William Harvey circa 1825 would be your GGGrandad.
