Hi,

I am looking for the death record of Jabez Panton born 1869, Bramley, Leeds, Yorkshire. His father was John Henry Panton who was born in Orby, Lincolnshire.

I have all census records incl. 1911 for Jabez when he was living in Leeds, Yorkshire with his wife Hannah Mary and children.

There is a death record for a Hannah Mary Panton recorded in Q4 1949 in Boston, Lincolnshire which looks like the death of his wife.

Any help would be appreciated,

Ian

Hi Susan,

Yes his father was John Henry although on most census records JH is just listed as Henry without the John.

Don't know about the name Jacob ?, not come across anything so far which relates to that name.

Probably, like you, I've searched all the records I can think of and various spellings and not come across a Jabez listed.

Might have to put this death on the 'back burner' for a while.

Thanks for your efforts anyway,

Ian

Hi Ian

Sorry but I can't find him anywhere,he must be very badly mistranscribed somewhere.
Hence the Jacob posting,it is a possible .

Do you have his birth cert or are you just going on the census you have ?

Did he join the forces at all or maybe went abroad for some reason ?

Sue

Do you have this census .

This is that same family in 1881 it says that Jabez aged 36 is Jebez's father aged 11,no Elizabeth here ,he does seem to appear that he lives in his Grandparents house until marriage...all a bit strange.

Hi Susan,

Yes, I have the 1871 census.

The Jabez I am looking for a death for is the son of Henry(JHP) who was married to Elizabeth Ann Bullough who was the daughter of John & Sarah Bullough.

Jabez age 26 on the census was the brother of Elizabeth Ann.

1881 census Jabez (1869) is the grandson of Sarah Bullough who's daughter Elizabeth Ann Panton died in 1880 as you found.

Jabez (1869) went on to marry Hannah Mary Lumsdon in 1897.

You would think with a name like Jabez a death should be easy to find.

I did have a look at the CWGC site to see if he had been killed in WW1 but couldn't see anything, although I thought he might be a bit on the old side to be called up for duty.

As his family originated from Lincolnshire I also thought they may have moved there seeing as the death of a Hannah Mary appears to be in that area.

Thanks again for your efforts.

Ian

The death cert for his wife will say if she was wife or widow of so you will have some idea whether he predeceased her or not.

Yes, that's an idea Shirley.

Thanks, Ian

His son's military records (Thomas Henry Sidney Panton) show his father as Sidney Jabez Buller Panton. This looks like his death -

Hi Choccy,

Looks like you have solved my problem.

The thing I don't understand is that his birth record, Bramley 9b 320, just gives his name as Jabez and he is listed as just Jabez on all the census records, even the one he wrote himself in 1911...??? Surely he should have been rgistered with his full names at birth?

The name Sidney seems to run in the Panton family and his mother was Elizabeth Ann Bullough so it all appears to fit.

Is it possible you can email me THS Panton's military records if I PM you my email address?

Thanks for your reply it is most appreciated.

Ian

Further on in the Military records that Choccy found it states his address and of his father as 71 Clarendon Road Leeds, this was on a form dated 14/10/1916.

At the time of his demob 26/07/1919 he states his birth as 18/10/1898, his mother as Hannah of Orby Farm, Burgh le Marsh, Lincolnshire. Although it doesn't say that she is his next of kin. He was in the 16th Battalion York and Lancaster Regiment. I think that Choccy is right with the death she found.

Hi Wendy,

Thanks for that additional information.

Ian

He appears here with full names.

Many people are registered with 1 or 2 names, then are given additional forenames when they are baptised.

The birth registration is not altered in those cases.


It has even been found where a baby is registered with 1 name, then baptised with a very different forename ............. and uses that name throughout life.


Makes it very difficult for us!

Hi Susan, Choccy and Wendy,

With the additional information Wendy supplied about THS Panton's address of 71 Clarendon Road, Leeds for his father that confirms correct Jabez found.

THS was born in Burgh le Marsh and his sister Ada in Orby, Lincs. The family must have then returned to Yorkshire where another 3 children were born in Leeds, before returning once more to Lincolnshire.

Thanks to you all,

Ian
