  • 1861 census help please

    Jane Clementina Furnivall died on the day of the 1861 census (7th April)

    She had married in 1858 to WIlliam Graham Furnivall.

    She was born Jane Clementina Marsh in 1835 at Winchester, Hampshire (place taken from 1851 census)

    She appears on 1841 census under the name Jane Marston with her family

    On 1851 she's mistranscribed as Jane Clementina Christian
    HO107; Piece: 1517; Folio: 52; Page: 8


    Now I don't expect to find her on the 1871 but I was hoping to find her husband to try and see if she'd had any children.

    William Graham Furnivall was born c1831 in Westminster.

    Her obituaries refer to her as the "wife of Major Graham"

    I've tried under both Furnivall and Graham and I'm drawing blanks.

    Can anyone see them, please?

        cheers Wendy. I hadn't got as far forward as 1871. I'll take a look at them now.

        Did a typo above and meant I was looking for him in 1861 i.e. on the day she died

          hmm - interesting.

          There are children on the 1871 who are old enough to be Janes - but the enumerator has crossed out their ages and overwitten it with "not known"

          Geraldine - 15
          Florence - 10
          Hilda - 5

          all born Stockwell.

          the oldest two could be Janes if the crossed out ages are corrcet

            As there's a Thorp sister-in-law in the household in 1871 the marriage looks right.

            I am not sure about the ages being crossed out, they are just squiggled over, not obliterated.

            I also wonder why the "Major" is described as a barrister not in practice. What were they living on?

                Do you know who registered Jane's death? If her husband was a Major he might have been abroad?

                      So it seems Geraldine was Gwendoline ( I thought the image was a little difficult to decipher) and she should have been 2. Curiously I see they chose Gerard as a boy's name though.

                                  83 Ebury St EATON Square. He is Captain Furnivall in the notice.

                                      11 Nov 1861 he took part in Lord Mayor's Day. Looks like he was in the City of London Rifle Volunteers. Do you suppose that was like the TA?
