I'd say this is the death of Mary Ann, wife of Peter:


Name: Mary Ann Heustice
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1816
Year of Registration: 1879
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Age at Death: 63
District: Lambeth
County: Greater London, London, Surrey
Volume: 1d

Results for: Huistice, British Isles

International Genealogical Index / British Isles - 5

1. RICHARD HEUSTICE - International Genealogical Index

5. SUSANNA HEUSTICE - International Genealogical Index

Aha. Some good confirmation of the Heustice/Henstice mistranscription problem.

This is obviously a brother of Peter HUISTICE christened in 1819:


DANIEL HENSTICE
Christening: 13 OCT 1822 Saint Mary, Lambeth, Surrey, England
Father: DANIEL HENSTICE
Mother: SARAH
Batch No.: P006281

Just a little coincidence here.


Marriages Mar 1838
Green Peter Lambeth 4 175

possible brides:

Sculthorp Mary Lambeth 4 175
Shaw Mary Melicent Lambeth 4 175
Wilkinson Mary Ann Lambeth 4 175

Births Dec 1848
GREEN Daniel James Lambeth 4 314


I don't see Peter Green in a census, but Mr. Green is probably a red herring. ;)

I would think that this is the birth of that Peter:


PETER HUISTICE
Christening: 07 MAR 1819 Saint Mary, Lambeth, Surrey, England
Father: DANIEL HUISTICE
Mother: SARAH
Batch No.: P006281

And here is the household in 1841:


Name: Peter Henstice - Ag Lab
Age: 20
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1821
Gender: Male
Where born: Surrey, England

Civil Parish: Lambeth
Hundred: Brixton (Eastern Division)
County/Island: Surrey
Country: England

Registration district: Lambeth
Sub registration district: Lambeth Church Second

Mary Henstice 25
Peter Henstice 20
Peter Henstice 9 Mo
Ebenezer Tuller 20
Harriett Tuller 20
Harriott Tuller 2


Again -- looking at "n"s on the page, like in Holman and Constance (on the facing page), I read that as HEUSTICE, not Henstice.

Aha. That household in 1861 -- Daniel J with father Peter, transcribed as Heaster/Hensters -- here it is in 1851:


Name: Daniel Henstice
Age: 3
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1848
Relation: Son
Father's Name: Peter
Mother's Name: Mary Ann

I think these are your people, really.

And the brother Richard increases the possibility that the Daniel Richard born 1886 is your Daniel's son.

Oh, oh, I just dunno. If you search FreeBMD for

all events
surname Henstice
district Lambeth
(no dates)

You get a number of things -- including more than one Peter.

Aha, that 1853 Daniel James Henstice has a double entry at FreeBMD -- HENSTICE was a mistranscription, and the correct version is HEUSTICE.

The others, or some of them, could be mistranscriptions into the GRO itself from the original certificates.


The fact that your Daniel was a bricklayer in 1881, and this Daniel's father Peter was a bricklayer in 1851 -- it just looks like too much of a coincidence.

You're welcome Darren! No answers I'm afraid, but things to mull.

I might just suggest getting that 1886 Daniel Richard Heustice birth certificate.

He could have been your Daniel's first child, died in infancy. It could be worth seeing who the parents were.

(Although he does look more like one in a series of Heustice children born exactly every 2 years from 1882 to 1894, all in Lambeth except for one in Wandsworth.)

thanks for all your help and time Darren

An interesting birth to go with the Daniel Heustice:


Births Sep 1886
Heustice Daniel Richard Lambeth 1d 353

-- edit - he died the next year


but the date doesn't match your Daniel Jr.


I think with that I'm going to leave you to mull for now -- just not having any other brilliant ideas!

An alternative theory to Peter Houston's household.


1861:


Name: Daniel Heustess
Age: 38
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1823

Civil Parish: Kensington St Mary Abbott

Daniel J Heustice 8
Emily Heustice 38
James A Heustice 11 Mo

the oldest girl was born 1912 we think she was born wakefield not eustace illagitamet child ????

Wrong year (unless late registration?) but interesting name:


Name: Daniel James Heustice
Year of Registration: 1853
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Lambeth
County: Greater London, London, Surrey
Volume: 1d
Page: 298

Okay, 1861.

I read the surname as ... well, it's really hard to say.

Heuston or Houston.

The household is difficult to understand in the original (no relationships are shown), but Ancestry has made a complete hash of it.

It seems to be Peter and his three children. Daniel is a son (on the next page from Peter). Peter is a bricklayer.



Name: Daniel J Heaster
Age: 15
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1846
Relation: Son
Father's Name: James
Mother's Name: Elizabeth (no; nonsense)
Gender: Male
Where born: Lambeth, Surrey, England

Civil Parish: Lambeth
Ecclesiastical parish: St Mary the Less
County/Island: Surrey
Country: England

Registration district: Lambeth
Sub registration district: Lambeth Church First
Household schedule number: 176

William Baker 47
Daniel J Heaster 15
Eliza Heaster 18
Sarah Ann Heaster 10
William Heaster 15
Peter Hensters 42


The others shown in the list at Ancestry are completely unrelated, in completely separate households.

Ah -- 5 girls. FreeBMD has only transcribed the 4, it seems, so far.

Young Daniel in 1901:

Name: Daniel Eustace
Age: 22
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1879
Gender: Male
Where born: Lambeth, London, England

Civil Parish: Kingston On Thames
Ecclesiastical parish: Kingston Hill St Paul
Town: Kingston On Thames
County/Island: Surrey
Country: England

Registration district: Kingston
Sub registration district: Kingston
ED, institution, or vessel: The Barracks Depot East Surrey Regiment

Not much help, eh? ;)

If we go with my theory that Sarah and Daniel weren't married ...

This is the best match for Daniel Jr's birth:

Births Dec 1880
Cruse Daniel James St. Saviour 1d 164

To match that surname, we have -- just musing now, remember:

Marriages Sep 1875
CRUSE Sarah Ann Wandsworth 1d 874
MASLIN William Wandsworth 1d 874
Urquhart Rose Wandsworth 1d 874
Urquhart William Wandsworth 1d 874


A bit of a dead end, I think. I suspect that Sarah Ann was born 1857.

they had 5 girls julia eustace 1917 is the wife's side's mother

got it it says his father was daniel eustace house decorator thats it
