Find Ancestors

I have Henry Jephcott b. 1858 Foleshill, Coventry on 1891 census with wife Mary J age 31 and children W.Leonard, Henry and George. Henry's occ is plumber and painter. They are living Spon St, Coventry. However, I have searched for him on 1901 census and the only one I can find is living Stratford Road, Birmingham with wife Clara A 37, Doris 4 and Fdk 2. Both Henry's age and occupation fit in with the previous census. The difficulty is I have yet to find a death for Mary J from the 1891 census or a marriage to a Clara from 1901 census. What do you think ? Thanks.

Have you found any of the 1st 3 children from 1891 on the 1901 census?

is there another Henry Jephcott born c1858 Coventry area?


The age and occupation are an indication that it may be the same person, but personally i would exhaust all other possibiilities before claiming him as "mine"

I will take alook at 1911 census to see what I can find for you.

Have looked at the 1911.... henry from 1901 is widowed by 1911, but still has children Doris and Frederick with him,and is still a plumber....so not much help there.

Sorry i have to go out now...maybe someone else could take a look for the children and death of 1st wife?...with a name like Jephcott i would be looking for various spellings....a very easy name to mis transcribe...


Nicky

No Nicky I have not even looked for the actual children from the first census as they woul all be of an age to have left home. However, I will have a look now.

Is this him? just geting my head round it lol

Yes Marion - both bits of info you have quoted are the correct Henry. Thank you. I am still searching for a death and/or marriage in either Coventry or Birmingham area to see if I can clarify what's what. The trouble is, like lots of families, these Jephcotts use the same family names all the while an have a horrible habit os sometimes using the middle names as well !!

I'm still pluttering away here....still not come up with anything yet.

Well, we're in the same boat Marion - I am still at it here and getting nowhere fast !!

Look what i found Margaret..

And heres a photo of him


http://www.camulos.com/tom/jephcott.htm

Just seen your reply Marion an am goiong to have a quick look..... now !! Thank you.

Marion - that is brilliant. I have looked at the one with the photo and text and reading through it, it does confirm our suspicions that he was not married to Clara but does confirm we have the right fellow. I had no idea how to copy the photos so have printed the whole article off to scan later. However, I cannot manage to get on to the site roulstone.net/_family/wallace/sw1830 - what does it contain please ? Thank you so much for this, you have been wonderful. How on earth id you find these sites ?

I thought you would like it lol. what a find eh?

I dont know why you cant see the other one. I just c&p it along the top and it came up.

It has much the same info as the other one.
Maybe you could contact the tree owner and they would help out re photos.

Have managed to get the second site too. What a brilliant brilliant find. I have been dancing round the kitchen like an idiot. What a genius of a gem you are. I really am in your debt. A million thanks.

Glad to be of help. At least we know what he looks like lol.

I had found that image of St. Lukes Road but for some reason read it as J. Johnson - what a fool. This is also useful information.

As to the infamous Henry - looking at his photo he does not look anything outstanding but reading all the data it seems he moved on from Clara and had an association with a Eunice Innis which also produced offspring. Well all I can say is he must have something, musn't he ????? What a story.... you could write a book couln't you ?

Well it looks like you got the answer to your question then Marion.....and a whole lot more extra informationas well.

Hav`nt looked at the links to the Henry Jephcott information, but could these be the children with Eunice?
