Meighan/Tampling look ups needed!

Hey everyone,

I have been searching for nearly a week and have been piecing together my family tree but I am hitting brick walls constantly with a few relatives could anyone do look ups for these relatives of mine and tell me anything big or small that they find out please?

Okay, I will start off with my great great great grandfather Frederick Tampling born approx 1880 and married a lady called Harriet. I am unsure of her maiden name (Sorry!) The problem I am having is that my family once had a shop along Western Road, Bermondsey, SE London and the lettering was mispelt and you had to pay for each letter so it wasn't taken down in the end and from around 1900 the Tamplin family has been spelling it Tampling so I guess his name would have maybe been Tamplin but I heard from a great-great aunt that it may have been Tampling so now thats where its difficult and I understand if you don't have time to look for two names.

He had many children whom their date of births are guessed as best to my knowledge except where it states. My guesses have come from other family members knowledge.

Children: -

Frederick Tampling dob 1887 (we think he was first born because of his name).
Millicent Tampling (Possibly Amelia Tampling) 1906
Edward Tampling 1900
Harry Tampling-1903
Charles Tampling1889
James Tampling - 1904 - accurate information from daughter.
Jane Tampling (She was also part of a twin pregnancy, siblings name unknown)
Unknown Tampling (Twin of Jane) 1901

These would have all been Tamplings due to the timing. I am really sorry that they are all rough estimates but I do know they were all born within close proximity of one another. This is the problem I have in finding records but anything you can find will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks

I was wondering about this. The father is a greengrocer at 30 Weston Street. The surname could begin with a T not a Fr.

Hmmm interesting! Do you reckon that could be a spelling mistake or doesn't that happen with these records? It sounds very, very similar. I know that Frederick and Harriet had another child but he went missing and wasn't spoken about again so maybe that could be Alfred? Although Jane was definately part of a twin who died soon after childbirth do you think that is why the child isn't listed? Lisa x

Thank you 'still looking' they look like they could tie in with the information I have. Thank you very much for searching for me. Although, these sets of Tamplings are I believe spelt with a G on the end as my family has birth certs, so I think they must all be spelt with the G on the end x

I think the 'Framplie' information is a match. I am going to talk this over with my aunt because I haven't heard of a Henry but they may have got the sons name wrong or something but it looks too similar and when I try and search for Frederick Tampling nothing comes up and I know he existed because we had a cert. Thanks! x

There's no marriage for Frederick to Harriet.

I think Harriet was married before that's why there's a big gap with the ages.

Lisa,

Henry would be the Harry you mention.

If you have the birth certificates, they should have on them the maiden name of the mother. That might help in breaking down the brick walls.

Nope that isn't her. I have just been told today that she is actually named Amelia Tampling and she married William White. She was probably born around 1908 I guess going by these dates. x
