I'm not understanding the Spencer-Hope connection, LK.

Elizabeth was Spencer in 1861 by virtue of her marriage(?) to Spencer - she wouldn't have been marrying someone else as Spencer in 1858 I don't think.

I guess we're assuming Catherine knows Elizabeth's birth surname was Bland, from a child's birth certificate.

She could have married Spencer under a different surname, but I don't think she would have married someone else first as Spencer. ;)

JaneyCanuck Report 30 Sep 2009 20:35

In 1871, Elizabeth reports Papplewick as birthplace.
Papplewick and Gedling are both in Basford reg dist -- about 6 miles apart. (Forming a triangle with Calverton, home of my mother's mother's mother's family.)

1851 doesn't show any Blands born in either place, unfortunately!

And 1841 and 1851 don't have an Eliz* Bland of the right kind of age.

1841 and 1851: Elizabeth/Elizth Bland in Selston born Selston 1832 -- that's Basford reg dist. And in 1840, an Elizabeth Bland in Snenton, Radford reg dist.

The 1837 baptism looks good -- so where is she??

Things are still not adding up Catherine. Need some more input from what you know as it is a fairly common name.

William Henry is Catherine's
grandfather living with George's sister so trying to find George and his sister together to establish parents and possible birth details-so far unsucessful. Could do with something more specific than somewhere near Blackburn.

there are no Blands residing in Papplewick in 1841 or 1851

Aargh, I see the Spencer-Hope connection. Not to Elizabeth, but to George!

Mea culpa, many lashes with a wet noodle. ;)


Best you should PM Catherine with instructions for finding her thread, reading replies and replying in the thread, I think!

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 30 Sep 2009 21:20

I don't think you'll find George and his sister together -- in 1851 she'd been married a good 12 years:


John Hope 35
Betty Hope 36
Thomas Hope 12
George Hope 10
Ann Hope 7
Ellen Hope 5
William Hope 2 - son aged 32 in 1881 census


Looks like Betty had son Thomas before marriage -- 1841:

John Hope 25
Elizabeth Hope 25
John Spencer 20
Margret Spencer 15
Thomas Spencer 2
Civil parish: Whalley
Hundred: Blackburn (Higher Division)

John and Margaret would seem to be her sibs, I guess.

Just to note that the Elizabeth Bland born c1832, in the 1841 and 1851 censuses, is accounted for in baptism records:

ELIZABETH BLAND
Christening: 24 SEP 1831 Selston, Nottingham, England
Father: RICHD. BLAND
Mother: ELIZABETH
Batch No.: C044731

Eliza Bland baptised in Gedling had no sibs in the same batch, unfortunately.

True, she did.

The Elizabeth Bland in Selston in 1841 (and 1851) is the one I referred to earlier, who seems to be different from "our" Elizabeth Bland.


I liked the one you had on page 2 (minus the bumph):
