Christine - another lead to follow up. Thank you.

Sue

Could this be her birth registration?

Births Dec 1852
CUNDELL Emma Pontefract 9c 65

Christine

Thank you Patchem - sorry I didn't check back over Christmas. I think this rules out this being Eveline's family. I was thinking that she had been mistranscribed as Emily but this must be a seperate family - perhaps relatives?. Thank you all very much.

Thank you all very much - you have given me so much more than I had an hour ago. I very much appreciate the time and effort you have put into finding this information.

I must go out - last minute food shopping - here in Aus. it's Christmas Eve. Best wishes to you all for Christmas and the New Year - thank you again.

Sue

This may well be her birth then

Births Sep 1853
Cundall Emily - Halifax 9a 360

That's incredible Mike. I have looked for Eveline on the FamilySearch site but couldn't find them. I'm wondering if Robert was born before William and Isabella's marriage if he had another mother - and that would explain the half-sibling situation.

Sue

This is an extracted entry not submitted but don't know how she could have been christened in 1873 if only born 1854 !!

Children of William and Isabella.

Note Robert was christened same day as brother Crossley ( Isabella's maiden name).
They could have been twins OR simply had a joint christening in which case one (maybe Robert) must have been born before William and Isabella married in 1829

Thank you Choccy - I couldn't find 'Parston'. Is 'Acaster' in that area? I take it that Thornton is in the Bradford area.

If that's the marriage Mike - then Isabella would presumably be Robert's mother so where does Eveline fit in and why are they half-siblings.

Sue

on the 1871 Eveline was born 'Parston' - think this could be Purston (Jaglin) in the parish of Featherstone, which is in Pontefract district

WILLIAM CUNDALL --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages:
Spouse: ISABELLA CROSLEY
Marriage: 06 FEB 1829 Saint Peter, Leeds, Yorkshire, England

So - William and Isabella may be Eveline's parents but not necessarily Robert's? Is it possible that Eveline may have been mistranscribed in the 1861 Census as Emily?

Sue

William appears to be married to Isabella in all censuses from 1841 to 1871, so how is Eveline a half-sister?

No father on the marriage certificate - how annoying:-)) Yes Robert appears to be her half brother.

Glitter Baby - Eveline as Caroline gives her birth place as Pontefract in 1881. Forgive my lack of knowledge as to where some of these places are in Yorkshire - I'm in Australia.
