Wow , Roy I just worked out...

George Denchfield who married Salome Rogers was Seth's younger Brother.

So Salome was Seth's sister in law.

So the name connection is there I guess.?!

Squeaky, my choice would still be the 1904 death for Salome but try and make a connection between Seth and the Goerge Denchfield who was married to Salome listed in the 1901 first

Gins, Looks like you already have? :-D

The 1901 you posted never had a (child) Salome listed

Roy:-D

Gins, Yes i have been doing what i do best, DRINKING but the death of Salome in 1904 cannot be the same person on the 1901 because the death was registered the same quarter as the birth and is listed as 0 years old

Births Mar 1904

Denchfield Salome Leighton B. 3b 375
Deaths Mar 1904

DENCHFIELD Salome 0 Leighton B. 3b 2

Edited Reggie, i see what you meen about they lied about the elder girl but she was crossed out and they never lied about how long they had been married

Well what a response from everybody!!

Thanks so much.

I wonder if I can maybe relate the names to another member of the family ... mother, father , grand father etc

And scarily .... Charlotte Denchfield, my great grandmother, her nickname was Gin !!

Haha.

That doesn't work, Roy.......they lied about the elder girl.

Porkie_Pie

Porkie_Pie Report 14 Aug 2012 16:17

As the question on the 1911 census asks for children to that marriage and surviving children to that marriage then Salome is still my choice

Gins :-D i take it your grandmother was called Gins n tonic ;-)

As Reggie said i had that same thought? The 1901 and the 1890 census should help

In 1911, the couple have been married 26 years.......had 6 children, of whom 3 have died

Porkie_Pie

Porkie_Pie Report 14 Aug 2012 16:01

Possible Gins but it's also possible that both families are related and the naming of the child was due to that connection?

I was named after my grandmothers brother

Roy

ErikaH Report 14 Aug 2012 16:01

As Charlotte was born before marriage.....perhaps the child who died was also pre-marital

Gee

Gee Report 14 Aug 2012 15:53

Hmmmm there is another family in the same place who has the mother listed as 'Salome'


Could be her childs death?
