Yes all the children were Woods. They were listed under Annie. Annie jnr was a niece.

I wanted to add, but my server went down, that in 1891 Susy is listed under her father & then there is a line drawn underneath. Then comes Annie K & her family. Annie K is the first in the household but is recorded as 'wife'. There is no head of household. Whether he's away or just left off by mistake who knows?


Here's Annie K with her family in 1881.

This is what I put on your other thread. Even though Annie K. is transcribed as his wife if you see the image this lady is actually Annie K. Woods living next door. Unless you know different I don't think there's any connection.

These little blokes as you call them must be some relative as Frank Dale is in my family line. Will just have to work out where exactly they fit in.
Well have to go now, husband is shouting for his dinner bless him. May get back later but will have more on this family.

Bye for now,

Back to William - Annie K was completely mistranscribed. She was Annie K. Woods. Do you think she's connected?

I have just checked through the 1881 census for William, found it as born Doverone. Should have checked it more thoroughly. It says he is lodging at 3 Saxton Street, Dover - Examining Officer Customs so it is the correct one. Also claims married. What do you think about this, you found 1891 with Annie K living next door and we assumed it was his family but maybe just another relation of some kind. From 1871 - 1901 William is Lodging but still classed as married so perhaps William and Harriet seperated. I think perhaps I might look for deaths now then for them both.
Thanks for the birth, sounds correct.

Re William Brandford. I was the one that helped with that branch. I searched everywhere for Harriet but couldn't find her. Couldn't find a death either.

I wonder ...... so obviously this is just coincidence.

Marriages Sep 1900
CORPS Mercy Edith R Farnham 2a 252
...>>>COURT Alice Eleanor Farnham 2a 252
NORTON William Alfred Farnham 2a 252
Smith Edward Farnham 2a 252


Lots of Robert Courts died between 1891 & 1900, no Robert Dales though. Searching for Alice Eleanor know to see if there was any children.

The marriage you have just given me would be to Eleanor Alice Everett as the surname rang a bell, checked up 1891 census for Robert and she was living with him and his parents in Folkestone under the name of Alice E Everett Milliners shop woman, so it looks like the 1901 census would be for Robert and Alice or Eleanor!! That might help.

I also left a message before you entered Roberts family, sorry.
Thanks Julia.

There's a good chance this is the other couple as Fred is around the right age. This means Robert probably married Alice.
