  • George Henry Chaney b 1859

    I am trying to help a lady in Australia find any living descendants of George Henry Chaney b 1859 in New Brompton Kent
    His daughter Beatrice Isabel b 1893 is the grandmother of the lady in question.
    Beatrice married John Pidgley in 1920 in Lewisham and emigrated to Australia in 1922.The last known address in this country is 48 Vestriss Road Forest Hill SE London.
    Any information would be most helpful.
    TIA
    Ray

    Hello Ray,

    do you subscribe to Ancestry at all? I think I have found GH in the census do you have any of them at all? [no point in me posting them if you already have them]

        I'm a bit confused Julie - which George Henry Chaney have you given the death and marriage for? I thought we were talking about the one in the census you posted i.e. born 1859?

        OOps sorry - I've just realised that we are talking about Jnr.

          Looking at the 1901 census Julie - http://interactive.ancestry.co.uk/78...l=ReturnRecord

          THey are living in Lewisham and I'm wondering if the more likely marriage is possibly Sept 1903 in Lewisham to a Gertrude Florence Smith? Looking at the 1911 census he is a House Painter and in 1901 a Painter and Paperhanger.

            mmm that is looking more like, though I was going with his father being GH too, [as per the marriage I found] have you looked to see if there is a marriage for GH and florence?? might be in the LMA collection i'll have a look.

              I can't spot that marriage at all in the LMA records... i'll delete those parts as I don't want to lead anyone down the wrong line.

              thanks Chris!

                Well I've put George Henry Jnr on hold at the moment as far as findin living relatives are concerned. The most likely scenarios for the three children on the 1911 census didn't appear to produce any children from the marriages. Also, children born after 1912 were difficult to pinpoint with mmn Smith.

                So I have just made a start on Frederick A Chaney and I think he may have married Georgina Harman in Lewisham in June 1911. This is looking more promising as there appear to be 8 children to get stuck into, all born Lewisham Frederick appear to have been born Frederick Andrew Chaney 14th Dec 1889 (registered Jan-March 1890) and died, still in Lewisham Dec 1973 aged 84. Georgina in Bromley in June 1975 aged 86. They have her date of birth as 22nd Feb 1889, though I suspect that whoever registered it was a year out and that she was born same date but in 1888. Of course we shan't be able to post the childrens names on here, unless they are now deceased, as they were born between 1912 and 1930.
                If anyone finds any living relatives though would they please Private Message Ray.

                      Just found this

                      British Army WWI Service Records, 1914-1920
                      Name: Frederick Andrew Chaney
                      Estimated birth year: abt 1891
                      Age at enlistment: 26
                      Residence: 11, Sunderland Rd, Forest Hill
                      Document Year: 1917
                      Regimental Number: 329194
                      Regiment Name: Army Service Corps (HT)
                      Number of Images: 12

                      you do have the right marriage and there are details of children and a Somerset house birth for son Frederick 1911

                      You might be able to match the electoral roll too, another address to go on in the same area now:o

                        Wasn't the sons birth in 1911 also Frederick Andrew Elaine? I thought I had his marriage etc and death in Chatham in 1999?

                          I am obviously checking for deaths before I post anything and I believe that I have another son Alfred Charles Chaney born 31st Dec 1916 - died Dec 1976 Lewisham.

                                  Stanley Reginald Chaney born 15th March 1924 died June 2004 Kent

                                  Gordon Chaney born 1926 March Lewisham died the same quarter aged 0

                                  The last two male births I can't find a death for, so cannot post and the females I still have to look for marriages etc.

                                  I am working on the children etc now as I know that it is living relatives that Ray is looking for. As I said before - we can't post their names on here but if anyone else is looking it might be helpful if they can tell us which line they have followed, so that we don't duplicate.

                                    I had a go at that too this morning Elaine without success. I even tried looking on Ancestry in 1911 but there were far too many options, so I gave up on page 2 (50 to a page)
