I noticed that Mary said that George Elliott Marriott Esq lived at 5 Palace Green, Kensington, I'm not sure what this address is - but is that in the vicinity of Kensington Palace?

Mel

If you google that address it will tell you that Kensington Palace Gardens was known as Palace Green & it is still there today. There is a turning by the Palace called Palace Avenue, then the next one it the one you're after

Thanks Jonesey & Minnie I've had a look at the Palace, as well as Kilvington Hall, I know I would never be invited to those places, it such a different lifestyle!!

I know this doesnt help you with your first question but Maureen has gotton me intreagued!

Looks like they both died soon after their marriage

Gotton you intriqued, imagine when I saw all the info this morning, i was speechless, I knew that his grandfather was well to do, maybe George got all his money!! and lived the highlife. His father was only 46 yrs old when he died and as you have seen, his mother was the same age. Mary, thanks for your info, I will never know what that life if like!!

Mary, I wonder if Captain George & Leuit. Col Townsend were in the armed forces together during WW2 - I'm not sure who his higher ranked. But that's another story!!

Hi all,

Can anyone please tell me if George Elliot M Parkinson & his wife Mary Euphemia, formerly Townsend nee Heymann, who were married in 1948, had any children

Thanks

Lily Scalzi left to the public trust in 1923 effects worth £69202 9s 3d worth in 1925 £2,073,983 that is some legacy.

Maryb

Thanks, Mary that is a lot of money, what would the Public Trust use if for?

I wonder if she left any money to her family.

Say may have left it to a specific trust that she thought worthy.

I can't see anything about her husbands will.


Maryb

Joseph Charles Parkinson of Whitehall Court and 16,Great Marlborough St Middlesex died 24/10/1908 left £81,422 3s 11d to widow Alice Ann Parkinson and the Public trust if the money was left in 1910 the value today would be £46,707,101.70

Marriott Parkinson of 5,Palace green died 23.12.1917 left to Lily Parkinson £26,267 15s 8d.

I can't see any children from the 1948 marriage of George E M Parkinson and Mary.

Maryb

Thanks very much, I was aware that there was money in that family, but nowhere near how much!!

I now know that I don't have to try & research for any children, thank you for your help.

Hi all,

Can anyone check to see if they can find a baptism for Mary Ann Hardy I believe c1808 in Middlesex. The information I have is that her fathers name was Charles Hardy Esq, (dec'd before 1832) I found this information in a newspaper when she married Joseph Parkinson in 1832. At the time of her marriage her fathers address was Great Titchfield st, Marylebone, London.

Also if possible the parents & siblings of Alice Ann Elliott c1842 Durham, England who married their son Joseph Parkinson in 1867.

If it is best, I will do 2 new threads,

Thanks, Joy

Hi Joy,

I don't see a baptism for Mary Ann Hardy.

Do you think this is Alice Ann??
