It looks as though Elizabeth's surname got badly mistranscribed on GRO, but this looks like Hannah's birth registration as barton Regis is the registration district that includes Winterbourne ......

Albert was still alive in 1911, so the death found by Malyon is wrong!

(relating above with other info., although Elizabeth 1939 not added, my fault, should have looked at image, when adding Alexander/Hilda Luton!)

The only question I do have about the 1939 is that is it states Elizabeth's birth date as 20 Dec 1869 but I have her baptism is 1861??

what do you think is happening there?

Any suggestions appreciated

Squeaky020

Squeaky020 Report 8 Jun 2017 12:43

I'm wondering if Elizabeth was born 20 Dec 1859 as her baptism is 6 Feb 1861 to Robert and Hannah Bisp.

Did they record 1869 instead of 1859 by mistake?

I wonder..... :-S

HeyJudeB4Beatles Report 8 Jun 2017 13:31

There's a blue cross above 1869 which was obviously added later.....a family of Bisps living a few doors away as well

Thanks Jude!

I did notice the cross and wondered, do you think her birth date on there should be disregarded now? Maybe thats what the cross means!?

I noticed the Bisps but I haven't made the connection yet!
No doubt I will very soon!

As for Elizabeth's husband Alfred William Smart... I have on his baptism record that his parents are Samuel and Phoebe Smart. I cannot seem to find them on any 1861 or 1871 census or their marriage either!
Strange...

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you Choccy !!

So had Samuel died by 1861 then?

Wow... Then Pam went on to marry John.

What do you think about what Malyon posted...Coventry?
