Find Ancestors

I am looking for a marriage between a Noah Buckland and his wife called Eleza or Eliza or something similar.
They were romany gypsies who lived on Standlake caravan park 1911.
Trying to find Eleza or Eliza (whatevers) maiden name.
Their daughter daisy is my great grandmother.

Cant seem to find birth records for either noah or Eleza/Eliza

No idea where Standlake Caravan Park is ?

This is a son.Will give mother's maiden name. Although you may prefer Daisy's cert.

You might have the 1911 already but anyone trying to help did not. Which is why I posted it

You gave no idea of ages or location which is useful when asking for help

At the risk of being told you already know this.
1901 the family are at Ducklington, Whitney Oxford.
Noah 25
Eliza 24
Noah 5
Owen 4.
On the same page are Noah snr´s parents Abraham & Emily & 2 of his sisters Clara b 1861 & Lena b 1871.
No sign of Lottie.
Possibly she was born before the marriage & registered in her mother´s maiden name (possibly as Charlotte)

Thankyou wisechild.

I don't know why lottie isn't on it either.

I have just found Noah living in 'Caravan on cricket field' Woodstock, oxfordshire, in the parish of Cassington with his family aged 18 on the 1891 census.

Noah and Eliza had their first child lottie in 1893.

so i reckon they got married between 1891 & 1893.

just tried looking in free bmd but it won't let me view the pages.

I also wondered if there may have been any other caravans in 'the cricket field' as gypsies usually travel in groups. Eliza may have been in that group.

Lottie was listed in the 1911 census as being born in surrey. so between 1891 and 1893 Noah met Eliza and married her got her pregnant and had lottie and moved from oxford to surrey.

They didn't hang around much! lol

Eliza could have been a Smith (a Romany surname)
There are 2 Buckland children registered 1913 & 1914 in Witney with mother´s maiden name Smith.
Emily 2nd quarter 1913 Witney (after her grandmother?)
Squire O (possibly Owen ) 4th quarter 1914 Witney.
In 1901 as I said, Noah´s parents & 2 sisters are registered on the same page.
Looking much more likely that Lottie was born before the marriage although being Romanies it´s highly likely that they were never formally married but went through a Romany ceremony.
Might be worth looking for a formal marriage between Noah´s parents Abraham & Emily.

Just to add.
1871 shows Abraham & Emily & family including Noah aged 1 in Abingdon.
They are living in the same place as a James Smith & family. Could this be Eliza´s parents?

names are usually passed down. is there an eliza listed in the smith family of any age or a lottie (someone who she may have named her daughter after)?
I can't find them on the 1871 census.

Thankyou for helping me :-)

Hollie.
The surname Smith for Eliza was only a suggestion.
Before you start tracing the Smith family, you really need to get a birth certificate for one of Noah & Eliza´s children.
This will confirm Eliza´s maiden name.

What makes you so sure they did marry......& if they did then it might not be registered, that is something that some Gypies never did

There is Noah's birth that will give you his mmn

Julie.
I did suggest that to Hollie yesterday at 14.20.
Think she needs to slow down & take things a bit more methodically. It´s always a temptation to take info other people have offered, especially when you´re just starting out.

sorry guys. I'm new to this and very inexperienced, hence why I'm posting on these boards for tips and advice.

I am after knowing Elizas maiden name but you're right I'm not sure they married 'officially' especially all those years ago.

When i look up birth records it says that you it doesn't show mothers maiden name before 1912.

Would it be that id have to order the birth cert for Noah to obtain Elizas maiden name?

Hi Hollie.
Realised you are new to this. It´s so easy to get excited & carried away when someone gives you information that sounds right, but to be sure you have the right family you need as much proof as possible.
You can order Noah´s birth cert using the reference number that Julie has given you. That will give you his date of birth, his father´s name & occupation, his mother´s name & the address where he was born.
Once you have that info, you can start checking back through the censuses & confirm whether the other info you have been given on here is your family.
If you get stuck, come back to this thread. There´s always someone around who can help & advise.
Good luck.

Ah! Great! thank you!

1 last thing then ill give u guys a break lol..

This is about the other side of my family tree...

My Great Great Grandmother was an illegitimate child born in an unmarried mothers home in the east end.

There is speculation as to who her father is as story has always told it to be a young Jewish boy who's house her mother worked in a servant.

As nobody in our family has ever seen her birth cert we don't know if the fathers name is on it or not.

If it wasn't on it, would it have the residential address her mother would have lived at at the time she got pregnant (lived in before she went the the unmarried mothers home/hospital?)? Therefore the address of the house she was a servant at?

Many thanks

I have Romany Gypsies in my tree & it has been hard, good luck though

Where are they from Julie??

I also have the Barnard family (Romany Gypsies) from West Ham, London.
