    Hadleys

    Thats good to hear thank you. I found an electoral roll address that percy and a Gladys M hadley were living at. Think I posted this above. However, I struggled to work out who Gladys was and considering most of the family are midlands and the only birth registration I found was for london, I...

    Hadleys

    I literally have no information on this John william hadley. I dont know if he did survive. The only thing I can possibly do is research the addresses for the rest of the family to see if he is there. I have found with a few family members they as they got older moved in with the kids or the...

    Yes especially as it mentioned anxiety after the birth of one of her children. although we dont know how happy the relationship was, but yes possibly post natal. Very sad. Its so weird finding out information that the family either never knew or spoke of, or just didnt want to ever discuss...

    Thank you for this, this is more information on my family than Ive known. The only confusing thing is where they quote her mother as Mavis as her mother was May E Johns. i take it this may just be another typo which history seems filled with. Im so grateful for these cuttings as I cant afford...

    Portlock

    Oh so true, the hadley family, cummings and portlocks were economical with the truth. I had a nightmare with Emily Portlock, who lied to get married, changed her name from Emily to Emma and back again, but with the help of people here we finally solved it. I found doing the Jones side of the...

    Portlock

    Yes she did marry Harold Whitehouse. There is also a Harry Whitehouse in the same area, similar birth so it does get a little confusing. However, someone has given me details from their marriage certificate which is as follows: Birmingham register office 8th October 1932 - Harold Whitehouse...

    Portlock

    Hi Lyn, thats the summary I reached. We cant find any marriage record of Leah marrying George Cameron so I assume when Violet was born, Leah registered her under the name of Davies/Davis rather than Cameron, perhaps she hadnt been with George that long. I found Violet did marry Harold...

    I'm trying to find information on Leah Portlock who was born 1867, daughter of William Portlock and Mary Ann West. Leah married Charles William Davis in 1887 but Charles died 1893. Leah is next seen on the 1901 and 1911 census with George Cameron, who was previously married. However I can't...

    The Golden Cup Hockley

    Interestingly 37 Camden St is listed on the 1881 census as the golden cup address for a relative so seems there is confusion
