May I have some help with this family please? I'm having trouble finding some of their births/deaths and on census - seem to be going round in circles :o - sorry if it's long winded but have a few questions..
Martha Gilbert married Elias John Chinn 1858 Mar Q Portsea Island Vol 2b page 520 - Martha born c1840 Brockenhurst, Hampshire , Elias born c1836 Hinton St Mary, Dorset
I have Martha & Elias in 1861 with son Gilbert Chinn (I have found Gilberts birth) in All Saints, Southampton ref RG9; Piece: 677; Folio: 80; Page: 7
1st problem: 1861 is my last sighting of Martha & Elias - can anyone find them on census or their deaths?
They also have another child (and possibly another, see below) Alice Augusta Chinn born 1866 Hornsey, Middlesex
I have found Alice in 1871 with grandparents Adam & Maria Gilbert in Alverstoke, Hampshire ref: RG10; Piece: 1150; Folio: 119; Page: 28
She married Edward George Woods Sep 1889 - she gives her father's name as Gilbert Chinn dec
A contact has sent me copies of Alice's birth & marriage certificates
2nd problem: I haven't found Alice after 1871
My contact also says there was another child to Martha & Elias, Lewis Chinn bn c1863. Contact doesn't have any more information.
Gilbert Chinn is in Industrial Schools Whitechapel in 1871 and there is also a Lewis listed
3rd problem: Have not found any other sighting (birth, death or census) of Lewis Chinn to prove/disprove he is the child of Martha & Elias.
Apologies if it's too many questions all in one go. But would appreciate help.
