Well I think that mary was just a bit of skirt in between Elizabeth and Esther
on the 1891,unless it was esther under a different name as "mary" was born in the same year and place as Esther.

Sorry, yes, Viv, obviously the "twins" thing in 1891 is just wrong, because Frank is our Frank Boagey. The enumerator was just going nuts. And I was all muddled.

Births Jun 1884
Atkinson William Auckland 10a 214

Births Mar 1882
Atkinson Frances Auckland 10a 166

Births Jun 1884
Boagey William Francis Hartlepool 10a 156

for clarity

On that note, I'm going home to dispose of the groceries The Lump will have brought into the house this afternoon. He's going to learn how to make his own giant batch of hamburger stroganoff noodle lunches for freezing tomorrow. You cook a bunch of finely chopped mince on a tray in the oven, crumbling it up, add as many tins of mushroom soup as seem good, and toss it with a bunch of egg noodles. Man heaven.

Happy weekend all!

Yes and now for the next question
leaving aside the atkinsons as they are not the REAL family
but the boageys are.
Can you see a birth for Esther Boagey 1865 ish
Or a marriage to a boagey for her to make her a boagey on her marriage to atkinson?
Because I havent been able to.

FannyByGaslight Report 9 Apr 2009 23:32

Yes she could have had mary as a middle name but I dont think so as i have looked into that as well.

I am going to have to do an Evie and exit the building as I need to sleep soon.
I will try that noodle job Evie but I HATE mushroom soup so will try it with asparagus instead.

Get the Frank Boagey birth certificate!!!!

Have you ordered it??

And the Boagey Atkinson marriage certificate!!!!!


Here is a possible.

Marriages Mar 1883
> BAYES Esther Hartlepool 10a 152
> BOAGEY Hunter Hartlepool 10a 152
Keeble Mary Ann Hartlepool 10a 152
SCRAFTON Ralph Thomas Hartlepool 10a 152

but there's no matching death for Hunter Boagey.


What if that Boagey-Atkinson marriage is a red herring and Esther and John Atkinson weren't really married at all ... ?


Okay, rule out Esther Bayes + Hunter Boagey

1891

Hunter Boagey 32
Ether Boagey 22

1901

Hunter Boagey 42
Esther B Boagey 32
Mary E Boagey 9
Hunter Boagey 2

Viv - no and no! That's what my Hunter Boagey effort was in reply to -- that was the only trace of any Esther Boagey, by birth or marriage, that I could find.

Our Esther was supposedly born c1865 in Hartlepool (per the 1901 census) and married Atkinson in 1888 (per the GRO).

No BMD or census trace of her being born as or married to Boagey.

Sean -- tell us!

Have you ordered
(a) the William Frances Boagey birth certificate
(b) the Esther Boagey + John Atkinson marriage certificate
?

You *have* to have those two certificates before we can do anything else half-way intelligent with this!

Hunter Boagey c1860 was the son of Francis Boagey c1817.
Francis Boagey c1817 also had a son named Francis. And other sons.

1871 in Hartlepool:

Francis Boagey 54
Mary A Boagey 50
Francis Boagey 27
Robert Boagey 24
Isabella Boagey 18
Joseph Boagey 16
Hunter Boagey 11
Richard Boagey 9


The name Francis could be a red herring, but the fact that it was William Francis Boagey's middle name could be a connection to this family.

... it looks like Francis Jr died unmarried:

Births Dec 1846 ?
Boagey Francis Stockton & 24 226
Boagey Francis Stockton & 24 225
(Stockton was reg dist before 1859)

Deaths Jun 1872
Boagey Francis 26 S. Shields 10a 427

Sorry Evie ,plain english does it for me every time.
No I cant see a ,esther boagey birth or marriage,would have got through to me straight away.

And I am on strike on this case until Sean gets the 2 certificates that need to be got.!

And possibly a replacement , for the torn up and scribbled all over one

Well I wuz doing it for myself you see. ;)

This is rather odd.

Marriages Mar 1883
BAYES Esther Hartlepool 10a 152
BOAGEY Hunter Hartlepool 10a 152
Keeble Mary Ann Hartlepool 10a 152
SCRAFTON Ralph Thomas Hartlepool 10a 152

Marriages Mar 1890
Allen Esther Banks Hartlepool 10a 143
Boagey Hunter Hartlepool 10a 143
Kerr John Hartlepool 10a 143
MURPHY Annie Hartlepool 10a 143


These will be about the second couple:

Births Mar 1869
ALLEN Esther Banks Stockton 10a 83

Births Jun 1894
Boagey Esther Banks Hartlepool 10a 165

Deaths Dec 1897
Boagey Esther Banks 3 Hartlepool 10a 88

Deaths Mar 1913
Boagey Esther B 43 Hartlepool 10a 201


What happened to Hunter's first marriage, whoever it was to?

No death of an Esther Boagey or a Mary Ann Boagey 1883-1890.

Esther Bayes sure does match our Esther Boagey born c1865:

Births Dec 1864
BAYES Esther Hartlepool 10a 140

Only one Hunter Boagey in the IGI:

1. HUNTER BOAGEY
Christening: 17 JUN 1834 Hartlepool, Durham, England
2. HUNTER BOAGEY
Christening: 21 MAY 1837 Hartlepool, Durham, England


They're both submitted, and they're both the same parents:

Father: FRANCIS BOAGEY
Mother: ISABELLA HUNTER

Now how could two people come up with two completely different christening records for the same person?


It gets even more ridiculous.

Someone has submitted Francis, son of Francis Boagy and Isabella Hunter, as having married Mary Ann Metcalfe in 1838 in Hartlepool.

Since he was supposedly christened c1834, that was quite a feat.

Of course, someone has also submitted his father, christened 1816, and the husband of Isabella Hunter, as being the son of ... you guessed it:

Father: FRANCIS BOAGEY
Mother: ISABELLA HUNTER (whom he actually allegedly married in 1812)

Sadly, the genealogy of this family has been constructed by morons.
