there are army records for James Wadhams, mother Louisa Wadhams, I assume these are same family. Step father maybe died and Louisa back to other name to make it easier for the record?

The 1939 just shows up with the one married to Lily (Reid) and a child still with them Frederick. I am so confused now lol! Hints at the side for Gherald and the 1911 with Louisa. However, Louisa's 1st husband Mr Wadhams didn't die until 1902 and the Edward Sumpter/Lily Reid marriage is 1899 so can't be the same people Not sure what to do - write down all the info. and try to make sense of it that way?

Sorry for the bombardments! I wonder whether they never married? Wonder that although the boys were known as these names as on the census whether they had different 'real' names and that's why they can't be found on the GRO? I will tell my friend I can't get any further forward. Thanks for all your help so far

there is a Edward Sumpter with father as G Sumpter on school records dob 18 Jul 1875 school is in Hartley Wespall, so think it is likely to be him, or maybe a cousin?Last edited by cbcarolyn; 29-05-20, 18:19.Carolyn

So is this the same Edward that is on 1911 census with Louisa? And a bit of a family scandal, or this is a red herring and need another Edward Sumpter from Hampshire?

Originally posted by GallowayLass View PostJust a last find before I go. I found that there were two marriages in Wandsworth for an Edward SUMPTER one 1899 and one 1907. The 1899 bride was either Lily Elizabeth Reid or Annie Sleight. No children with the 2nd mms but two for the first. The 1907 was to Louisa Durey. That cert might show Edward to have been a widower.

There are military notes for an Edward from Tadley whose big main info is he goes in the marines and there is a record on TNA to download
Was looking at Lily Sumpter with her mother 1911
It was a bit late when I looked but won't have a chance to look this morning, hoping its might help and I will get the chance to look laterCarolyn
