Hello all,

Please accept my apologies for not coming back to my thread until now. I was not ignoring you all but my PC was playing up big time last night and I was unable to come back to it until now.

Thanks for all the help and replies which I have not looked at properly yet as I wanted to explain my absence last night!

Many, many thanks to you all.

Regards,

LL

I think the next stage is to get the marriage certificate of Rose E Chapman and Henry Voller, December 1911.

The 1911 census says they have been married for 15 years. Living at 232 Sellincourt Road, Tooting. But despite having paid my 30 credits, I can't view the original record.

So, talking to myself. Where was Henry Voller in 1901? And Rose Chapman.
Oh, I already found Rose!

Rose chapman is described as spinster, so perhaps Henry was married before ?

On 1911 she gives her age as 29 born Mitchum Surrey ? Hmmm

I meant did we have a birth for Dorothy. Sadly lots of Dorothy Chapmans.

But also a Dorothy Voller:

Births Mar 1899 (>99%)

So maybe she was Henry's child.

Oh, I realise that has already been found.

So Rose Chapman did not marry Henry Voller till 1911, by which time she had 3 children. It would seem that Henry and Nellie (Rose Ellen) were his, though why not married? And a later child Albert. But perhaps not Rose Chapman. Did we have a birth for her?

EDIT do we have a birth from Dorothy Chapman - but see next post, she is Dorothy Voller.

Yes, Lindsey, I think this is the Nellie in 1911.

Nellie on the army record and in 1911 is probably Rose Ellen.

Madmeg

There is no Nellie Voller birth, but there is a Nellie Chapman. There are both Henry Chapman and Henry Voller births.

On Her marriage cert it gives James Henry Voller,s occupation as Soldier ?

Henry.s war records give
Rose chapman spinster, married 1911,
Son Henry 1901 and Rose Ellen 1903

On the 1911 census Rose says she has been married for 15 years !

Cheers peeps! but can anyone help with Dorothy's mum? I couldn't find a marriage for James, Henry Voller. I tried to find James on the 1901 Census with daughter Dorothy born 1899 and hoped to find out the Christian name of his wife but no luck!! :-(
