Betsy Simmons Christening: 28 APR 1839 Edlesborough, Buckingham

Levi's birth certificate should give Judiths maiden name.

Oh wow! So much to digest. I cant believe i have all these relations.

I know Two Waters road in Hemel Hempstead. Sadly most of the old cottages are now pulled down.

Just by the magic roundabout - to the old bus garage at Apsley... i remeber it well -

Scarlett, can we go down the path of willam sidney pickett born 1903 poss essex?
I know he was a divorced man with children. One would be called Joan as my gran cared for her as one of her own kids due to the fact the ex wife left her on the streets and moved away without taking her.
Other than that i know very little else.

Yes that is corrct Scarlett. My grandfather and his son Terence worked on the buses for london country.
Apsley is nothing like it used to be. the old bus depot is now gone to a differnt part of the london road.
Are you from Hemel Hempstead? I was born and bred there.

born in St albans grew up in berkhamsted

its hard to go forwards from 1903< because we dont even know what his parents names were - cant see him on 1901 census( obviously) because he wasn't born

Would a marriage certificate confirm his parents if i could order one?
Where is the best place to get one since i dont know the day or the month they were married?

Tina

So you need to estimate when they married - any clues???

about easter of that year 1944 my aunt thinks

here it is then
Doris-----Pickett
H. Hempstead
June quarter 1944
volume 3a
page 3044

so if you send for that marriage cert, it will tell you his age and his fathers name

william death - which tells you his age

Death Registration Month/Year: Oct 1996
Age at death (estimated): 57
Registration district: Milton Keynes
Inferred County: Buckinghamshire
Register number: C16B
Entry Number: 245


his birth is reg in dec Qtr of 1939 MMn Sear H hempstead 3a 2268

Scarlett, William David Terence Nigel Picket is my uncle. His mum and dad are Doris and William Sidney pickett,lol!
He died 11 years ago of a fatal heart attack at home. We alled him Terence.

Born before they married though

was he the eldest - the youngest - where did he fit in - any idea?

Yes he was born before they married. That is why everything is so cloak and dagger.
Now gran had 6 children 2 of which died at 4 months and 18 months and then William terence david nigel.

Marlene 1936
/kathleen 1937 died at 4 months
william (Terence) 1939
doris ann 1942 died at 18 months old
richard 1944
shirley 1945

any ideas of the dates of the dead children?

Scarlett can you help me find the info needed for the marriage of Daid Sear to Louisa Ellen Seabrook so i can order a copy of the marriage certificate?

Also details of Doris Ann born 1942 died 18 months later

And Kathleen D Pickett died 4 months old but born 1937

so i can order a copy of their death certificates? Its asking for volume numbers, districts and page numbers.

I dont know what the D is for Kathleens middle name unless it was Doris.

Thank you.

Anyone with any ideas to the above?

David Sear married Mar 1903 Leighton B. Volume 3b page 531, Ellen Louisa Seabrook is on the same page.
