Find Ancestors

I am looking for any connection with an Elsie Jaques who wed one George Burdick. 1925 Lewisham.
living in hopes! Brenda Dewar

Your hopes are likely doomed. ;)

But somebody might be able to help dig up some rellies for you.

Are you looking for their descendants? Descendants of Elsie's sibs maybe?

"Connection" is such a vague word, and I just never have any idea what it means!

You know who the two Burdick-Jaques children were? They could be living, so I won't put their details from the GRO index here.

Go ahead, ask us anything! ;)

they married lEwisham but where were they born?

on 1901 there are a few living in Lewisham but I would need more details to help locate him

Hi Brenda.
On the index they are shown as George E Burdick and Elsie N Jaques. Reg in Lewisham. vol 1d page 2536.
Copy of the marriage certificate should give their ages and their Father's names and occupations, along with witnesses who may be siblings.

Birth of Elsie Nellie Jaques 1904 Jan/March Qtr. reg in Fulham. vol 1a 211

Birth of George Edward Burdick 1900 Jan/March Qtr. reg in Kingston. Surrey vol 2a 335.

to get family of Elsie you need copy of the birth certificate as there seems to be quite a few Jaques. Hope this helps. Ethel.

it me again Gillian, The 1841 census at Sayers Court Deptford has Great Great Granda James Jaques and his motherAND his mother in law along with his own family A brave man i'd say.
he was back in 1820s when he was first wed to Martha Matilda Bond, a Convict keeper or Prison guard on the hulks that were moored along by Woolwich Arsenal and Ship yard.
I find that fascinating. Moving to Deptford and then to Rotherhithe , the family must have been in such fetid air, Tanneries and flooding from Thames ,that to moveupto leafy Charlton must have been wonderful.
Sayers Court Deptford was the home od Joun Evelyne diarist.
He loaned it to the Tzar of Russia for a while 1680-90s and he appariently made a bit of a mess of it. There is at this time lots of redevelopmentinthe area and silhouetted in the main door way of a new block of flats is a massive statue of the Tzar of Russia. Frederick the Great.Can be seen from the river Thames.

Just a bit of local knowledge Brenda

Thanks Christine , You all have been so busy for thanks Brenda

Strange as I am working in leafy Charlton too.
Must look out for that.
Where is it?
