Old Singer Sewing Machine
Extract from recorded interview with Douglas CAMPBELL (DC) and his wife Irene (IC) in 1984:
IC : My mums dad, a seafaring man, she used to tell me that in their home they used to have great barrels of things, like there'd be a barrel full of nuts in one corner, and a barrel of something else in another corner! (laughter) And remember. And remember when mum said that she had this old sewing machine, this old singer sewing machine her father bought her, and it had no lid on it, he made the lid from an old box! (laughter). And that went with mum all through her life and I had it in the end and I think I passed it on to our Sue at one time, or somebody had it I don't know who had it! But that lasted years around... old singer sewing machine.
But I can remember my mother saying when she was in service which couldn't have been long because kids left school at what 13, 14, mum married at 17. And I can always remember one thing, that her saying her mistress told her how to clean lettuce, and I can always remember this, where she said, the long Cos lettuce, and you cut it in half and you held it under the tap, and you let the tap run down the leaves and it will take any flies or insects out, and then you'd give it a good shake and that's the way she would she wanted her lettuce clean, I can always remember mum telling me about that. I think she got about two shillings a week (laughter).
JS: And where did she work? In London or
IC: In London yes. Somewhere in London... Because, as I say she was married at 17 so she couldn't have been working very long
AS: And she married a seafaring guy? No, no this is your mum!
IC: No this is my mum, but her
AS: Its her father who was the seafaring man.
IC: That's right yes, he was the seafaring man. He was at sea quite a lot, and she used to say it was lovely when he'd come home because they had so many things brought home! | Mabel GRAY

From Ruth Jenkins:
Born ABT 1514, son of George Hastings, first Earl of Huntingdon, by his wife, Anne Stafford, sister of the Duke of Buckingham and reputed the be the Mistress of King Henry VIII or his friend Sir William Compton. Francis Hastings was summoned to Parliament as Lord Hastings on 3 Nov 1529, the same day his father was created Earl of Huntingdon. The following year he was appointed steward of two abbeys. He was made a Knight of the Bath in 1533 and succeeded his father to the earldom on 24 Mar 1545. At the coronation of Edward VI, he carried St. Edward's staff and played a prominent part in the jousting which followed. He backed Northumberland against the Lord Protector Somerset in the government of the boy king and conducted Somerset to the Tower on 13 Oct 1549, the same day he was created a Knight of the Garter. He served as lieutenant general and chief captain in the army and fleet that was engaged in the struggle for Boulogne, in which service he complained bitterly about the lack of equipment and money. In 1550, Northumberland now in full control, he was made a member of the Privy Council. In 1552 he accompanied Edward VI on his progress and the following year attended Northumberland as he visited the north, when the latter urged the King to give Huntingdon the estates in Leicestershire forfeited by John Beaumont. The King did so and Huntingdon gave the manor of Grace Dieu to Beaumont's widow. On May 21, 1553, Huntingdon's son and heir, Henry, married Northumberland's daughter Catherine, the same day as Northumberland's son, Lord Guildford Dudley, married Lady Jane Grey. Huntingdon signed the document naming Lady Jane Grey as heir to the throne and accompanied Northumberland to Cambridge where she was proclaimed. He was seized by forces loyal to Queen Mary and taken to the Tower. He was released the following Jan and sent in pursuit of Lady Jane Grey's father, the Duke of Suffolk, who had risen in revolt. He accompanied Suffolk to the Tower and was present at the execution of Sir Thomas Wyatt there. Having married the niece of Reginald, Cardinal Pole, whom Queen Mary had made Archbishop of Canterbury, he did not suffer under the Queens attempts to restore Catholicism, but was undoubtedly Protestant at heart. Queen Elizabeth appointed him master of the hart-hounds after her succession. In 1583, his youngest daughter, Mary, received a formal proposal of marriage from Ivan IV "the Terrible," Czar of Russia, presented at Court by his Ambassador. She declined the offer. | Francis HASTINGS

Account from Mervyn about a car accident involving Annie May and Fred, resulting in a pleasant stay with Essex Street relatives!
A First Meeting with ‘Aunt Deb’ and Family - Extracted from “My Life in a Few Short Words . . . . . .”
. . . .It was not long before Mum decided it was time that she should be able to make use of the family car. She had one or two initial driving lessons from Dad, but she began to lose her patience with him because he tended to tell her whenever she did something wrong! But, to be honest, she needed him to be with her until she became a proficient and safe driver because that was by now required by law (my Dad, for instance, when he started in 1927 never had to pass a test to be able to drive). But of course, cars were not so sophisticated in those days as they are today. In order to start the engine it was necessary first to set the required balance of choke (i.e. petrol) against the airflow through the carburettor. (Flooding the carburettor with petrol was all too common, and that meant waiting for some time for the excess petrol to disperse before you could try again). Control of the running of the engine was by means of manual manipulation of levers at the centre of the steering wheel, and their correct setting was a matter of judgement and experience (cars are now designed so that this is done automatically). Anyway all this technical stuff, together with the natural mix of excitement and apprehension tended to worry Mother somewhat, but she was still pretty determined to learn.
It was during one of these learning sessions, early one evening after I had gone to bed, that she was rounding a bend in the road and found a horse and cart coming towards her on the other side. Unfortunately the horse took fright and reared up towards her, and she instinctively turned the steering wheel rather abruptly away in order to avoid hitting it. Even more unfortunately though, the car went through a stone wall and came to a halt with its front wheels hanging in space over a vegetable garden several feet below. The glass windscreen had shattered into sharp dagger-like pieces (as they did in those days) and one piece caused a nasty cut in Mother’s forehead, plus other smaller abrasions, and she was taken to hospital where she stayed for several days.
Apparently the next morning, turning up late for school and quite upset, I gave my excuses to the teacher - “My Mum’s been and bashed into a wall!” Without further explanation Miss Dowsett must have been left wondering, her imagination in something of turmoil, until later on when she was able to discover that “My Mum” had been in a car!
Luckily Dad was not injured and I think he was able to look after Ron and Cliff (my older brothers) at home, but arrangements were made for me to stay with Mother’s aunt, my great-aunt Deb, who lived in Essex Street, Bedminster.
Other than being in hospital myself (for tonsils or something), this was the first time I had been away from home without my parents, but Aunt Deb, apart from being very small, and very old and wizened, was also very kind and welcoming and her family made a great fuss of me. I had never known Aunt Deb’s husband, Samuel Charles Heath (my grandfather’s brother), who had died many years before my visit. Apparently he had been a Registered Dairyman in Essex Street, Bedminster, where they lived, since their marriage in 1892 and she had finally taken the business over from him until 1918. Now she was living in retirement with a son and daughter. I still happily recall them all:
At home there was Victor Emmanuel, unmarried, then 30ish, a postman after retirement from service in the Merchant Navy. There was also Dora, younger and jolly, and working at Wills’ cigarette factory in Bedminster. The eldest son, Edwin Charles, I think was married and living in his own accommodation by then, as were Arthur and Sydney. (Edwin I think was married to ‘Glad’ [Gladys]?). ‘Syd’, I remember well, was married to ‘Beat’ [Beatrice]; he was a Rep. for ‘George’s’ (later ‘Courage’) Breweries and apparently had developed the propensity for proving his loyalty to the Company by testing the alcoholic content of its output with every customer he would visit during his working day (much like his uncle, William Charles, my grandfather, who had been a steward with Campbell’s White Funnel Channel steamers - but surely Syd was not quite so brutal to his family as he!). (Syd and Beat later had a son, Brian) I once met Arthur, and later his wife (Laura, I believe she was), and thought them both very nice - I remember at some time they opened a Milk or Sandwich bar in High Street (in the middle of town) for a while. Apart from the pleasure of my meeting previously unknown relatives and giving my Mum a bit of a rest, I enjoyed my week or two with my Essex Street relatives, but, even more so, I was happy to be able to come home and have my brothers to annoy and occasionally argue with once again . . . .

Nan (Annie May Stanton - nee Heath). On her early life working as a kitchen maid in St Ives, Cambridge.
Recorded December 1976.
Conversation between Annie May Stanton (nee Heath) and daughter-in-law Ruby Stanton (nee Allen). Ruby speaking first.
Right Nan. It's the 17th of December 1976. You are sitting knitting?.
Yes? yes.
I am cracking crab claws.
So go on lets hear about St Ives.
Oh alright well we've got to keep each other occupied somehow!
Well I can go back to the Boer war?oh it comes to that! I can remember seeing the soldiers marching up Gloucester Road coming back and dragging their guns behind them.
In Bristol?
In Bristol this was yes.
When I was 14 we moved to London from Bristol, Bert was 3 weeks old in long clothes when we went there.
Was he?
Yes.
Well then I stayed home for a little while but I got a position as a kitchen maid in St Ives in Cambridge. ?.it was a vicarage, in a vicarage. But it was a very, very hard place there, the work was terrific, I used to have to kneel on the tops of the range to clean the flues out.
How often did you do those?
Oh about twice a week I had to 'cause they had great big ovens, very big ovens. If I got up too late after 6 o' clock I used to have to stand on the kitchen table to heat the water in a saucepan. Over an ordinary gas flame, the ordinary old fashioned flames you know? Oh I had to do that many a time.
They had a lady's maid she used to come down 'bout 7 o' clock for the lady's bathwater and they used to have hip? baths in the bedroom, she used to have to bath?. and the gentleman only, was allowed to use the bathroom.
They had a bathroom?
Oh they had a bathroom yes, but only the gentleman was allowed to use it.
It must have been very early days.
Oh it was a beautiful vicarage, it was a huge vicarage, the staircase was a lovely one of those, lovely round staircases that when up? a big square hall. Be weren't allowed to use those stairs, we had the servants stairs to go up. Same as we had the servants hall where we had our meals, and never the same food as they had in the dining rooms, quite different food.
Was it good food?
Well it was good, but it was plain? but it was joint on Sunday and "done up" until Wednesday. Then we'd have another one on Thursday and that was "done up" until Saturday. But it was never what they had in the dining rooms, was always different what they had.
What did they have in the dining room, can you remember?
Well all sorts, they used to have a lot of their stuff up from the army and navy stores in London. Lobsters and things like that. And I always remember they used to drink a lot of "Salutarous" water? come up in bottles from the Army and Navy stores. I don't know what special water it was?. I s'pose it was some health water you know.
Oh and they always dressed in the evenings in evening dress, with trains! This is a vicar's wife mind and her mother, Mrs Hamilton-Bell was her mothers name, but I can't remember the vicars name. But they were oh? really gentry they must have been because? She had a son that was a major in the army at Aldershot. And he had about one of the first, I should think, motor cars that ever came out, one of those very, very high ones. And the chauffer that he had was a soldier, and he was a married man with 7 children. When he used to bring him up, he [the chauffer] used to be ever so sorry for me he said he would never let one of his girls go into service. I used to have to work from 6 o'clock in the morning to 10 o' clock? 10 half past at night. Course it used to take me ages to wash up the dinner things!
What time did you have off?
Oh?. erm..
No unions then!
No, No! One half day, one Sunday afternoon, a fortnight. And then I was just allowed to go out for a walk you know and back again and that was all I had. Eight pounds a year was my pay?. Eight pounds a year, I used to get that monthly. And I don't know what could have happened but I must have been I suppose a little bit saucy to the cook and she made a complaint to me to the lady in the?. I had to go into the dining room when this was reported. But I can always remember, course as a youngster naturally I burst out crying? and I said and it was very unkind of Elizabeth to tell tales about me!
You can remember saying that?!
Yes! I can remember so well saying it, just like it was only yesterday!
It was a lovely place, they had a gardener there and an under-gardener. Oh! it was a beautiful kitchen garden. And when he came, he used to come in with the vegetables, every day fresh vegetables, he was awfully kind to me, he always used to bring me in some? either some peaches or apricots in his pocket and he'd quietly give them to me. I used to take them up in my bedr? My bedroom was up three flights of stairs! A little attic room, with just bare boards in it which I used to have to scrub.
Did you have to share it or was it your own?
Yes I used to share it with a house maid.
Really "upstairs downstairs"!
Yes, yes. The lady's maid she had a special room outside Mrs Hamilton-Bell's bedroom. I used to have to practically wait on her with different things. In the mornings before 8 o'clock I had to do three fireplaces, the study, the dining room and the drawing room fireplaces.
And that was clear out the ashes first?and then?. ?
Oh yes, all that sort of thing. And then there were three bedrooms upstairs to do, their bedrooms 'cause they all had fires up there you see. So it was all fires everywhere. And the kitchen range I used to have to see to that. But oh it was a terribly big? But what I used to enjoy most of all was when I used to have to wash up was to scrape up the?. 'Cause I was so hungry you know I didn't have enough food a growing youngster. Used to like to scrape out the lovely sauces that she used to make, with anchovy sauce and all that sort of thing.
Still do it now!
Well it used to be lovely there I used to enjoy that! Of course they had all the luxury's that you could possibly have that you? today you know. I don't think that he had any pay at that vicarage I think it was a private living really. Because they always seemed to have plenty of money.
I remember they had a jumble sale once, and they put some lovely things, and they used to wear those boa's, the lady's maid used to make a lot of things for them and she used to make those boas, in like "fissues", and all that sort of thing. And they were made of net the boa's and then she'd have long silk ribbons you know hanging down from it. 'Cause trains on their dresses to everything. And the lady's maid got rid of a navy blue skirt once, she said would I like this navy blue skirt. And when I went home finally, I was really?. I told my mother if I couldn't leave I was going to run away, and I'd been there six months then. And when I went home and my mother met me at Walham Green, we lived at Fulham, she met me at Walham Green station she had a shock! I had a navy blue skirt with a train on it!
Oh dear!
How old were you then?
Fifteen!
I must have looked terrible. When she told me about it you know after years about it? but when she saw me with this skirt on, and I forget, I think I had an like an ordinary motor hat on and, you know a straw hat that they used to wear then. But I always remember I thought I was quite a lady with this train you know, I thought it was absolutely wonderful to have, especially as it was one that the lady's maid used to wear. But oh... I used to have to do the lady's maids room and make her bed. And I know one morning she caught me... I used to just throw the bedclothes over! She said you set that bed and make it properly you know, and I was so disappointed because I often just used to throw the things over and cover them up, you know! It was wicked you know the way that they made you? just for eight pounds a year.
It's ridiculous isn't it?
Yes. Terrible you know really. 'Cause, as they said you had your food? such as it was. But you couldn't help yourself to anything, it was just given to you what there was on the table, but it was very, very rigid.
There was a butler, they had a butler that when I first went there, the butler had been to the Boer war and he'd picked up drink. And one evening they wanted the shutters put across in the drawing room, and he wasn't there. And he wasn't there? he wasn't there to put these shutter over. And he'd gone down the end of the drive, down there was a little pub at the end, and he wanted a drink. He did it two or three times. Well somebody must have split on him, and he came? they had him on the carpet about it it was quite a to-do, and they gave him the sack. But then they had another one and he was a very quaint fellow. Course when we went to church we had to file in, we had our own row, we had to file in, and when I first went there I hadn't any gloves. I was pulled up because I didn't have no gloves to wear to church. And he? it was, it was summertime, it was a very sunny day one Sunday, and he thought he'd go to church with a straw hat on. Oh he was pulled up on the carpet? butlers should always wear a bowler hat! Wasn't allowed to wear a straw hat! But oh it was very, very rigid with everything that was there, what we had to do. I just was? really I got to that state that I should have run away from the place. I wrote to Mother and tell her I couldn't come home, I intended running away.
And was there any reaction to your leaving?
They took back the old kitchen maid that left previously. She'd gone somewhere else, she was an older girl. I was really too young for the job actually, because it was such a great big stone kitchen. I was supposed to get on my hands and knees and scrub the floor but I couldn't do it! I wasn't? I couldn't get the work done in time with everything that was there, what with the washing up, loads and loads of washing up as I say I used to be washing? and I can remember one occasion when the chauffer came with the major once. He came out to help me, it was about 10 o'clock, and all this washing up I had to do, he came out? but the cook came out and told him "No look that's her job" he said, "Leave her alone" he said, "You come away from it." Oh and he used to feel so sorry for me, you know, he said "I'd never let a girl of mine go to service." Said "It's terrible?" Still! I mean I learnt a lot? it's all experience, I learnt a lot from that. I had some marvellous places of ? in London after that. Came back to London, and of course, there you were well respected and you were treated more as one of the family.
You preferred London to the provinces.
Oh yes, yes. It was absolutely marvellous there, because the last place I had was wonderful. And I left home then? I left there to come home with Mother you see because my father had gone away then. And I came back then, and then I went to a place in Bristol but I left at the end and I wouldn't take a place in Bristol, not after London, because you were one of the family in London you were really respected. In fact you had quite a job to get a decent job in London, unless you were well recommended. But in all events I did very well there, my last place was very nice, we always had our glass of Port was sent out to us on a Sunday you know, very, very nice they were to us.
That Christmas, I left at the end of the year, and the girls were away at boarding school, and of course when they used to come home at Christmas there was a lot to do. They didn't take another maid in my place, there were four maids there, and they didn't take another maid in my place, or she couldn't get one that was suitable. And they sent and asked me if I would come just for the Christmas, while the children were home from boarding school.
And did you?
I went back there, yes. And they were very nice about it, in fact she really wanted me to stay on again but you see, I had to think of Mother and go back with her because she
She was left on her own? with how many of you at home?
Seven? I was
You were the oldest but one?
No I was the oldest?.
You were the oldest?
I was the oldest of seven. And Bert you see was only three.
He was the youngest?
Yes, he was the youngest. So of course I had to go home to help swell things you know and keep things? Of course Bert and even Mabel didn't know their father. And of course I? took it all in my stride because I was helping Mother. But I had to help keep them you see, while I was in my job. And with Mother, of course poor Mother she had to go out to work. We had a very hard childhood especially myself, and well even Lily I suppose to a certain extent, it was very hard? but we were very happy in our ignorance, and we always kept our pride. We kept our pride and of course Mother always had? there was a certain culture in Mother, which
Seemed to come through?
Yes. Seemed to come through and developed in the family as it's grown along. Course I often say how proud she would be of me today. She'd be so proud if she could see each of
And her grandchildren
And the grandchildren. How wonderfully they've got on. And through their own merit!
They've worked.
I mean we've done our share to help as parents and done what we could. But, as regards the family as concerned, they're absolute credit and it's wonderful really. When I look back, I'm looking back now. You know I'm nearly 85. And I'm looking back all those years and when I think back of the struggle we had and yet how independent we were, and to see them today it's absolutely wonderful.
And yet you've come through.
Come through yes! And thank God for it!

Nan (Annie May Stanton - nee Heath). Air raid on 82 Whitehall Road, Bristol. Recorded Christmas 1978.
Must just tell you an incident a couple of months after your father died, we started having the heavy air raids. We had a very bad in the November, and we caught the biggest blast of it in our house. We had the roof blown off, all the windows out. Luckily we were in the shelter because the sirens used to go at night. In fact for a fortnight we used to rush down and take our tea down there and stay down there all night! Then a fortnight afterwards we had another heavy raid which took the back roof off! And I was saying to the boys "Oh be quiet I can't hear anything!" because they were larking about, and I said "What's that funny noise going on?" And when I looked out it was fire- bombs were falling everywhere! So out jumps Clifford as quick as lightening? I never seen such a thing in my life he was marvellous! Out? over a high wall into the next house, there was a fire bomb on the roof there, luckily they were away, they'd left their back door open in case of fire. Clifford went up into the back bedroom which was ablaze with a fire bomb that had dropped on the bed. He picked up the mattress bodily, told Mervyn to push the window open, and threw this mattress out alight, blazing, out into the garden. And the bomb then had dropped into some blankets under the bed, which was in a box under the bed, and that was alight, and the chest of drawers in the room.
So in all events they had a stirrup pump and they brought a bucket of water with them, and got it out after about an hour. Next door to us again, was a garage, full of paint stuff and that was all on fire! So you can guess the state I was in. I was screaming out in the road "Fire! Fire!" and an unknown soldier came running round the corner and he said "For God's sake Mrs get inside theres stuff falling everywhere!" But I said my two boys are upstairs and the house is on fire! He went rushing up? then when he came down he said "They're alright" he said "They're looking after that" and he said "Go in your shelter ma'am! Go in your shelter!" and it didn't cross my mind to look at my place, to go inside my house at all. I had Ron's furniture, some of his furniture which he has got here to this present day. I had the in middle room more than half of his home and my own home, I didn't think to look inside but, when I think back now I think now that that was one of God's works. That nothing happened to our place at all, but either side was on fire with these fire-bombs. It was an absolute revelation when I think of it.

Paulton was hit by an outbreak of "Asiatic Cholera" in Sep-Nov 1832 when John, then aged 9, would likely have been living there. The outbreak claimed the lives of 23 men, 23 women and 26 children. A plaque in the graveyard of Paulton church commemerates the event.

Matilda Mabbett married John Charles HEATH of course (when already three months pregnant) but they managed to continue to have a family of three boys, although at the time of the 1871 Census,only one was living with them - they seemed to have been having problems, because the other two boys were living with relatives.
By the publication of the 1881 Census John Charles HEATH is shown in St. Marylebone, London, aged 30, with a new wife, Ellen, aged 26. And by the 1901 Census, at the age of 50 he had changed her for Emily, aged 47 (who had been a servant in a coffee shop) and an 18 year-old stepson, Herbert John GOULD, who was a Solicitor's clerk.

Apparently according to Annie May, William was a heavy drinker who worked as a Ships Steward on Campbells White Funnel Fleet Services serving ports on the Bristol Channel, and treated his wife and his older children extremely severely at times. There was also a story of one Christmas or New Year when his family were visiting his brother, Samuel Charles's family (probably in Essex Street, Bedminster), when he received news (goodness knows how) that his house (and maybe the cycle shop) in Gloucester Road was on fire. It was suggested he ran all the way home to deal with it! Apparently his whole family went to live in London (where he drove one of the first trams) and then became a chauffeur of an early Bentley or Daimler or something, before, around 1910 or so, sometime after Bert was born, he decided to abandon his family altogether and he moved off to Canada (possibly Winnipeg, Manitoba), where he made a new life for himself. His family never talked very much about him to us after that! Though there is of course only anecdotal evidence of this, we know it did leave the eldest daughter Annie May to go into service to put toward the upkeep of the family. (See notes on Annie May HEATH).

I have some more details on Wardrobe's descendants as they relate to my side of the tree, some corrections to what you sent me fron
Jackie (?)
Without the beneift of mile file, this is a bit vague, but I'll do my best. Sometime in the summer of 2004 my father and I took a trip to Conisbrough.. we found the house that Wardrobe was apparently resident in at the time of the census. We also went through the microfiches in the library of all the local papers to see if there was any reference to Wardrobe's marriage to Mary Ann Tyas. There was not as far as we could see. We did find the "Illustrated Histroy of Conisbrough" which does list Wardobe's marriage as the only signifiicant event in the 1880s. The author is dead.. and the book was finished by his friends.
I also contacted a genealogy society in Doncaster who for a small fee performed a search of all burials and deaths within the Doncaster area, looking for the name of Hudson in the ecclisastical district of Doncaster wthin the ten year period which we suppose Wardrobe died. The result.... nothing. Wardrobe does not appear to be buried in the vicinity of Consibrough...

From Ruth Jenkins:
Dear Mark
I hope you'll find what I've done helpful. Burke's is wrong re his (John Tregonwell) first wife's name, but I've spelled that out in my tree. His last wife's will refers to the above's son John as her son, but I think as she married the above John in 1666 and was making her will in 1717 after 50 yrs in the family she probably did not think of him as a stepson. I have the will for John died 1724, which I think must be one of yours.

William married Tabitha Whitby in 1849 and they had two children, William
and my gt grandmother Martha, sadly Tabitha died in November 1852, William
then re married someone called Mary? and they had another daughter Kate.
Kate married William Stanton of Wyke Regis
Williams father was also call William and was born in Langton in 1801 and

Arabella's birth certificate shows she was born on 2nd September 1848 at 9 Harford St to Matilda Mabbutt, formerly White and father is Richard Mabbutt.
Arabella (the elder daughter) at the age of 19 married George BLACKBURN (a seaman, aged 22) on 25 December 1867 at St. James, Bristol, Gloucs. John Charles HEATH and her sister, Matilda, were witnesses. The 1881 Census, however, shows George BLACKBURN resident at Plymouth as "Mate of the "Alice" , and the same Census shows Arabella, aged 32, living as wife of Samuel BENNETT, shoemaker, aged 30, (born Plymouth, Devon), back in Bristol together with her mother, Matilda STEWART, now aged 59, and Samuel HEATH, her nephew, aged 12 (i.e. the Samuel Charles HEATH mentioned above). | Arabella MABBETT

Matilda Mabbett (the younger daughter) married John Charles HEATH of course (when already three months pregnant) but they managed to continue to have a family of three boys, although at the time of the 1871 Census,only one was living with them - they seemed to have been having problems, because the other two boys were living with relatives.
On her marriage certificate to John Charles Heath, her father is given as William Mabbett, glass cutter. However, on her birth certificate Matilda was born on 1st July 1850, her father is named as Matthew Mabbett, and mother Matilda Mabbutt, formerly White at 6 Harford St, Bristol,
By the publication of the 1881 Census John Charles HEATH is shown in St. Marylebone, London, aged 30, with a new wife, Ellen, aged 26. And by the 1901 Census, at the age of 50 he had changed her for Emily, aged 47 (who had been a servant in a coffee shop) and an 18 year-old stepson, Herbert John GOULD, who was a Solicitor's clerk.
Adrienne:
Mum said that Matilda left John Charles and went to London and that Samuel Charles had step-sisters. There was also an 'aunt' Tilly who stayed with them in Essex St, Bedminster, Bristol.
Searching for Matilda Heath, I found in the 1881 census, living at 2 Peerless St, St Lukes Parish, Finsbury
John Carlile (Head), married aged 25, engine driver, b.London, Surrey
Matilda wife aged 24 machinist, b. Bristol
Matilda daughter, aged 2 b. Middx, St Lukes
Arabella daughter, aged 9 months b. Middx, st Lukes
I have been unable to find a marriage for Matilda and John but did they just say status was married when they were not divorced and living together? I have the birth certificate for daughter Matilda born on 7th April 1879 where she is named as Matilda Alice Mary, and mother is given as Matilda Alice Carlile, formerly Mabbett and fatheris John Carlile. This daughter is the 'Aunt' Tilly referred to by my mother.
Later in the 1891 two more daughters have been born and living at 10 Bloom....? St, Marylebone, London
Entry given as:
John Carlile (Head) married 38 engine driver b.London St Sepulchre
Matilda Carlile married 42 b. Bristol, Bedminster
Arabella Carlile aged 10 b. London, Marylebone
Mary Carlile, aged 6 b. Bristol, bedminster
Alice Carlile, aged 4 b. London, Marylebone
N.B eldest daughter Matilda A M M Carlile aged 12 by now not there. I found her staying with Isabella Bennett aged 42 at 15 Bartley St Bedminster, Bristol. Mum had also told me that 'Aunt'Tilly stayed with Arabella and went to a convent (probably a school ) in Redcatch St, Bristol. and my Aunt Beatie also mentioned Samuel Charles Heath's step sisters Tilly and Alice.
It appears that Matilda Mabbett lied about her age because on these 2 censuses her ages do not tally but perhaps she told John Carlile she was not as old as she was when she met him. Also could not find a marriage for them but perhaps she did not divorce and lied as to marital status on censuses!
I cannot find them on the 1901 census but I think I have found a death for a John Carlile between 1891 an 1901. Yet again I cannot find what happened to Matilda Mabbett or where she was after 1891 but her children with John Carlile would mean that they were half-sisters to Samuel Charles Heath because they had the same mother. 'Aunt Tilly' is on the wedding photograph of Edwin Charles Heath to Gladys.
I know that Matilda A M M Carlile married a Sidney Bartlett and they had a daughter Doris in 1908 I think.

My main interest is in the MABBETT side my Great Grandfather George BLACKBURN married Arabella MABBETT in Dec 1867 and John Charles HEATH, together with Matilda MABBETT were witnesses at the wedding, prior to their own wedding the following year. (July 1868).
I am trying to determine the relationship between Arabella and Matilda i.e. sisters or cousins from the Bristol area, perhaps you can help?

As far as the Bown family we knew that Mary Bown (1791) had a daughter,Mary Ann Bown (1815), who who in turn was Sarah Ann Stanton (1844)'s and William John Stanton's (1857)'s mother, I hadn't looked further along the 'Bown line' so never found her father, although I have since found his name was John. One might conjecture that he would have been born around 1791 too. Brian says he couldn't find him on the 1841 census, and I find he doesn't appear on the 1851 census either. I don't know whether he too was a sailor, which around Fleet in those days often meant a local fisherman, but it appears that local crew-men were frequently ar sea when the Census-man called and thus never featured on census lists. (1841 was the very first official General Census anyway after the introduction of BDM registration in 1837, so it was something new, and possibly something bound to arouse many people's suspicions - like Identity Cards do in these days!).
The Secretary of the S&DFHS, Mrs.Mural Monk; it was Mrs. Monk who told me then that Mary Bown (1791) died 11/12/1875 at the age of 84 years, a date obtained from her records of Monumental Inscriptions in All Saints Church at Wyke Regis. | MARY

Further research into the 1881 Census has revealed, resident in Wyke Regis, Dorset :
Mary Lovell, "mareners wife", Head, married, age 54, born Wyke Regis.
William John Stanton, visitor, married, age 25, born Weymouth, Dorset
[Industrial Trainer at The Union] - i.e. Weymouth Union Workhouse (for paupers).
Kate. A.M. Stanton, daughter, married, age 23, born Wyke Regis.
William J.W. Stanton, grandson, age 11 mths., born Wyke Regis.
Mary T. Rose, grand-daughter, scholar, age 10, born Wyke Regis.
Given that old William Stanton, mariner (born c.1830) cannot be found on the Census, it seems feasible to suppose that by this time Mary had remarried (though no second husband 'Lovell' can be found either). In any case I have identified her as she still has her daughter (or -in-law) and grandson 'Stanton's living now with her. The other characters seem interesting enough for further research - aren't there a lot of 'William J. Stanton's' around!

Wyke Regis has a long and rich history with evidence of human occupation stretching back to the stoneage era some 10,000 years ago. The earliest written record relates to a charter signed by the Saxon King Ethelred II in 988 AD. The name Wyke Regis can be loosely translated as meaning "the farm of the King".
The present All Saints Church was consecrated in 1455 but there were at least two previous churches on the present site. It is an important example of the Perpendicular style of architecture and is still essentially the building as completed in the fifteenth century. Until the 1836 All Saints' was the parish church of Weymouth.
Until the 1890's the people of Wyke earnt their living through farming and fishing. Farming records of the manor exist back to 1243 and fishing has taken place over many centuries off Chesil Beach in the turbulent waters of the English Channel. Many victims of ships wrecked off Chesil Beach are buried in the churchyard, including Captain John Wordsworth, brother of the poet, who was drowned along with 300 others when his ship was wrecked in 1805
In 1891 Robert Whitehead, the inventor of the deadly underwater torpedo, built his Whitehead Torpedo Manufactury at Ferrybridge, Wyke Regis and this resulted in engineering becoming the predominant occupation with a dramatic expansion in house building.
Today Wyke Regis has been absorbed into the much larger Borough of Weymouth and Portland but it still retains its own distinctive character.
