John Jezard is only mentioned in 1900 on Priscilla's death certificate When Priscilla's daughter Ruth Thrasher/Ruth Jezard/Ruby Jezard marries in 1900 she calls her father Robert Jezard Perhaps Priscilla had a common law husband John Jezard after Robert Thrasher died - who I also think was a common law husband |

The death certificate is a copy of the original handwritten certificate and clearly says Ellen Jezard - but mistakes can be made - seen those too - on top of all these name changes! |

Priscilla must be trying to hide - she says she comes from Cardiff when she is born in Hartest, Suffolk |

It does actually say Triplow on the census page, although at first glance it looked like Torplow. If you look carefully there are dots over the i's.

That's exactly what I was going to say!

I also feel that Cardiff could be a misreading of Hartest. Once put the suggestion of Cardiff into someone's mind, and Suff or even no county at all has to be South Wales.

My previous post about this doesn't see to be here! I agree with Phoenix - we can't see the householders handwriting for 1881, so we don't know what scribble the enumerator turned into Triplow and Cardiff.

Good afternoon all
This is the story of mystery and intrigue - another one! Please help find Claude Henry Uhthoff born 1897 in the 1901 census or could have been sent abroad to live on the continent or to America Horace Thrasher (later known as Horace Courtenay) was baptised with his cousin Violet Jezard in 1896 while living at 133 Finborough Road with their grandmother Priscilla Thrasher (maiden name Pope) but now known as Priscilla Jezard. Both Horace and Violet have false parents on their birth certificates and baptisms and are baptised outside of their parish. Priscilla bought 133 Finborough Road in 1895 at auction and is renting apartments as Mrs May Jezard. I wanted to try and find further Thrasher/Jezard/Courtenay children living in Finborough Road where Violet had been born or Archel Road where Horace had been born. Instead I found another baby Claude Henry Uhthoff who had been born at 150 Finborough Road and baptised at the same church as Horace and Violet when living at 133 Finborough Road. Violet is born in 1890 but not found in the 1891 census, she is at a boarding school with Horace in the 1901 census and then disappears. Horace's father according to family rumour was an 'illustrious member of the aristocracy, a person of considerable note' and he is found age 7 in the 1901 census with Violet at the girls boarding school - he hated it there! Claude Henry Uhthoff is born in 1897 Father Enrique Anthony Uhthoff is born in 1875 Mother Annie Louisa Brooks is born abt 1880 Step-father Arthur Henry Parnell is born in 1876 Great-grandfather Henry Roman Uhthoff dies in 1884 leaving a fortune of £166,665 to his son Ludolfe Enrique Uhthoff http://www.in2013dollars.com/1884-GB...?amount=116665 That is £13 million pounds in today's money 1891 census Ludolfe Enrique is a wealthy foreign merchant from Mexico, a Spanish subject and his son Enrique Anthony Uhthoff is living with the family 1891 census Annie is living at home with her parents Edwin and Jane 1891 Arthur is at home with his parents, his father Henry is a corn merchant and miller 1897 Claude Henry Uhthoff is born to Enrique Anthony Uhthoff a merchants clerk and to Annie Louisa Uhthoff formerly Brooks THERE IS NO MARRIAGE BORN AT 150 FINBOROUGH ROAD 1897 baptism Claude Henry Uhthoff to unmarried parents Enrique Uhthoff and Annie Uhthoff, Henry is a family name LIVING AT 133 FINBOROUGH ROAD, APARTMENTS OF MRS MAY JEZARD AND HER MANY OTHER NAMES BESIDES 1901 census Enrique is nowhere to be found but travels to and from the US frequently, could also be on the continent or America with Claude 1901 census Annie is living in residential chambers with other servants before her marriage to Arthur 1901 census Arthur is nowhere to be found but travels to and from the US frequently 1901 census Claude is not living with Annie's parents Edwin and Jane or living with the grandfather Ludolfe or father Enrique or other Uhthoff family in ENGLAND 1901 Annie Louisa Brooks marries Arthur Henry Parnell 1903 grandfather Ludolfe dies and leaves his estate of £14,841 to son Enrique, Ludolfe died in Switzerland DID THE FAMILY TAKE CLAUDE ABROAD TO THE CONTINENT http://www.in2013dollars.com/1903-GB...7?amount=14841 That is £1.7 million pounds in today's money 1905 US census Claude is found in St Joseph's School, New Jersey Annie Louisa Parnell and Claude Henry Parnell regularly travel between England and the US to meet Mr Parnell 1906 Enrique marries Kathleen Collinson 1910 US census Arthur, Annie and Claude are together and Arthur declares that he and Annie have been married for 14 years when they have actually been married for 9 years to protect his wife and step-son from any shame, they have a Japanese servant Enrique regularly travels from England to the US as he is a foreign merchant but could also be seeing his son 1914 Annie sadly dies and Arthur does not remarry 1923 Claude marries Hilda Mary Chare and Claude states his father is Arthur, the kind man who married his mother and not Enrique, does he know who his birth father is 1939 census Enrique is a retired bank manager living in Surrey, his wife has a lady's companion 1939 census Claude is a press photographer and living in Surrey, did he know about his birth father Enrique, did they meet in Surrey 1948 Enrique dies leaving his estate of £3,275 to his widow Kathleen http://www.in2013dollars.com/1903-GB...48?amount=3275 That's almost £11,000 in today's money So 133 Finborough Road is a hot bed of intrigue! Violet born 1890 does not appear in the 1891 census Horace born 1893 changes his name by 1901 census Claude born 1897 does not appear in the 1901 census All live at 133 Finborough Road All were baptised at the same church Violet's father we have absolutely no idea, an aristocrat, met through the theatre? Horace's father is rumoured to be of the aristocracy, met through the theatre, we'll just never know Claude's father Enrique came from a wealthy family I seem to remember reading an article about children being baptised to parents who were pretending to be married and being paid to keep quiet in the Kensington area in late Victorian times but alas can't find again, read a long, long time ago, just as starting this research and didn't realise the significance then. It's been a fascinating journey, thanks Violet, Horace and Claude. Thanks Genealogists' Forum too for all your help and interest! Last edited by Lorraine Karen; 01-06-19 at 18:11. |
