Thanks Ann but not the right family.

Ethel was still living at Islington 1911 Census and still single. Her father was William Gauntlett and mother Sarah Amelia Gauntlett.

soooo

if she married or died, it was after 1911


that information would have been useful right at the beginning!!



sylvia

you might have to do a search quarter by quarter, year by year of the Complete index to deaths on ancestry



sylvia

Yes Ann that is the right family thanks very much for looking....... and Sylvia ............. I won't even bother to respond to your sarcasm.

don't think she is sarcastic really David - what she says is right

am wondering what Aerated bread is?

I actually was not being sarcastic


I was stating the fact that it is much more helpful if you put up ALL the information in the first message rahter than having it all drawn out bit by bit.



sylvia

So Sylvia "rahter than having it all drawn out bit by bit" I assume you mean rather?

I posted at 19:34 and then 14 minutes later at 19:48 I updated regarding the single status in 1911...... is that really drawn out?

I am really sorry Sylvia if you had spent 14 minutes researching my Great Aunt when you assume I had more information at 19:34 but withheld it. In fact I remembered I must check 1911 to help anyone in my research when Ann kindly replied to my request.

I am fully aware I have to check quarter by quarter year by year but thought there may be resources out there that may produce a quicker answer.

And finally Anne "am wondering what Aerated bread is?" Thanks!

Frankly I am disgusted at the rude response I have had to a very simple request with plenty of please and thank you's on my part.

David

I am so very sorry if we have upset you


I am ever so sorry that I misspelled "rather" ........ I have to admit that I neglected to check my spelling before posting the message!

What a pity .... and what a terrible person I am!

But it gave you the chance to tell me off! Did you enjoy that chance?


Yes, I had spent several minutes looking for your Ethel Irene Gauntlett, on 3 sites to which I have access ...... so, yes, you waiting almost a quarter of an hour before adding the extra information was "drawn out" in that I wasted that time. Time I could have used in looking at the correct period, or in helping another person ..... or heaven forfend, in doing my own research!


I think Ann of GG was really just being curious in wanting to know what "Aerated Bread" was

we do get curious if we come across a phrase we haven't seen before


Please do note however that she is ANN not Anne .......... that is a rather worse spelling mistake than "rahter" methinks.



Frankly, I am disgusted at the rude manner in which our attempts to help you BETTER and FASTER have been received.



sylvia

I was curious - nothing more - never heard of aerated bread before!!!!

Hi Ann

William was a manager of a bakery call the Aerated Bread Company from what I can gather.

Thanks for you efforts once again.

David

For Ann


The Aerated Bread Company Ltd (A.B.C.) was founded in the United Kingdom (U.K.) in 1862 by Dr. John Dauglish. Its aim was to mass produce healthy, additive-free breads using a new bread leavening technology he invented.

Dauglish's system was a YEAST-FREE, carbonic acid gas (i.e., carbon dioxide) method of bread making: "Nothing but flour, water, a little salt and gas — no sweat! It was liked by many."

He established that if one could introduce carbon dioxide to bread making — by dissolving it into solution in water — this would eliminate the need for fermentation, dramatically reduce the need for physical contact with the dough on the part of the workers, and consequently introduce a greater level of cleanliness into the bread making process.

Dauglish "aimed at the abolition of manual kneeding [sic] with its associated nastiness and dangers to cleanliness and health."

The scientific journal, Nature, reported in 1878 that:

"As to the perfect cleanliness of this mechanical process for making bread there can be no question; it is immeasurably superior to the barbarous and old, but as Dr. Richardson remarked, not “time-honoured system of kneading dough by the hands and feet of the workman.”."


The method was also cheaper, because it eliminated some steps .... so A.B.C could sell its bread for less than its' competitors, which led to these others promoting their bread with ads such as "buy the bread with the gin in it". This was at a time when gin was thought to have medicinal properties since it was made from juniper berries.

The traditional fermentation bakers neglected to inform the readers of these placard adverts that virtually all of the alcohol dissipates in the extreme heat of the ovens.


The company ceased operation in the 1980s.

and so I should think!!!!!

So how many fingers did it take to type THAT Ann??????

Edit:: this is relating to a certain wasp sting.

There are at least 4 other people who have this lady in their tree on this site. It may be worth contacting them to see if they have the information you require.

Thanks Ginny and Cynthia ...I am in touch with other GR relations/members who have Ethel in their tree but it seems they have drawn a blank like me Cynthia.

Not to worry I will get there in the end ;)
