Lillian Grace Eleanor Searle
Name - "official" name and what they were known as
Called herself Lillian Grace Eleanor Searle. Date and place of birth 1875 Sussex - per 1911 census. The only confirmed sighting! 1883 - per age at death Names of parents Oliver Searle, farmer Details of each of his or her marriages - if any - and any divorces 1) Alfred George Talbot 1905 Holborn 2) George Henry Mason 1916 Camberwell Occupation(s) - if any No occupation in 1911 Military service - if any None Addresses where they lived - and please list which censuses you have or haven't found him/her on, if applicable. 1911 - 28 Molesworth Street Lewisham, South London 1946 - Church Road Bexleheath, Kent Date, place and cause of death 25 September 1946 Bexleyheath, Kent Date and place of burial / cremation. Probably buried in Bexleyheath Cemetery Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable Administration 28 April 1947 to George Henry Mason Memorial inscription - if any Not known We are awaiting the 1921 census with baited breath. We think that Lillian is actually Emily E Searle born Heyshott, Sussex, aged 11 months on the 1881 census, daughter of Oliver, a limeburner and Mary Ann. (the parish registers were stolen, so we don't know what she was baptised as) This family is stil at Heyshott Street in 1891, with 6 younger siblings. Several were born in Graffham, so the family presumably moved out and back again. By 1901 the family has moved to Bepton, with another 5 younger children. Emily is no longer there. Reasoning for this is a photo of Oliver Searle junior in sailor's uniform - ties up with his records on Find My Past - addressed on the back to "Lily" This is on the assumption, of course, that she was his sister, rather than his girlfriend!
