omg rootgatherer how perfectly excellent :-D

Lucy maybe you can just try to read things through in order and follow along :-)

the surname Micklewright was on the baptism record of one of Emma Georgina Sheffield/Carash's children, it said 'Micklewright Carash' for father

also ... she had children who were born as Micklewright and died very young as Carash

I was one who thought his surname was really Micklewright and there was fudging going on because the parents were not married

the Mr Micklewright that rootgather has found fits that profile perfectly

... he was married to someone else so he had children with Emma Georgina but was not married to her

... on his Canadian baptism record his brother George's name shows ( at least as it is transcribed at familysearch ) as MECKLEWRIGHT with mother CARRASH

it seems certain Henry is the father of Emma Georgina Sheffield's children

https://novascotiagenealogy.com/

this is the site where you can see some historical births marriages and deaths in Nova Scotia ... it has

Micklewright, Frederick William Halifax, Halifax County 1864
Micklewright, George A. Halifax, Halifax County 1867

you can view the actual birth registrations there

the birth registrations at that site only go from 1864 to 1877 so Harry's birth is not covered in that range

the record for Frederick is an application for late registration made by his wife Elizabeth Micklewright in 1939 in New Jersey United States ... it says his date of birth was 11 July 1864 and it gave a leaf from the family bible of Thomas Micklewright showing the birth of Frederick William Micklewright as the fourth child of Thomas and Mary Jane Micklewright ... and it gives the mother's name as Mary Jane CURASH

( you saw ... the baptism record from familysearch gives it as CARRASH )

Frederick Micklewright born 11 July 1863 died in Halifax Nova Scotia in 1958 at age 94

Frederick Micklewright is the brother of George Micklewright

Henry Micklewright brother of George and Frederick is the father of Ruby Carash

Brother Frederick returned to Canada or perhaps to the United States since that is where his wife was when she applied to register his birth in Nova Scotia in 1939 ... probably because he needed to prove his age in order to get a pension
( 1864 + 75 = 1939 )

MICKLEWRIGHT 1863 M 1906 Liverpool Canada Montreal ?

there is one Micklewright listing in Nova Scotia in the telephone directory at present ... and 11 others in Canada

http://www.canada411.ca/search/?stype=si&what=micklewright&where=&x=0&y=0

... but family could be in the US ...

after a while ... when you have all this sorted out :-) ... you might want to get in touch with them because it seems that HARRY MICKLEWRIGHT is your ancestor

I would guess that he used his mother's name Carash since he was involved with a woman who was not his wife


edit and by the way I absolutely think Thomas Joseph Micklewright 1892 is Cedric Carash

Henry born in Canada in 1859, his parents are Thomas, a Retired Army man born in Ireland and Mary J. born in Canada. So they probably married in Canada. I was just wondering if her maiden could have been Carash?

Another couple of children for Harry and Jemima

I can't see a baptism for this chappie and I wonder if this is our Cedric Carash?

In 1891 he is back living with his parents and states that he is single.

His wife Jemima remarries in 1903 as a widow.

Now although on the census his occupation doesn't fit as he is not an Engineer. By the time his son from that marriage is baptised he is an Engineer!

In 1919 Emma Georgina Caplin is one of the witnesses to this marriage
Name: Cedric Thomas Joseph Carash
Age: 27
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1892
Spouse Name: Agnes Kilminster
Spouse Age: 23
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 20 Dec 1919
Parish: East Dulwich St John the Evangelist
Borough: Southwark
Father Name: Henry Thomas Carash
Spouse Father Name: John Kilminster
Register Type: Parish Register
In fact at that time she may have been known as Caplin but legally didn’t become Caplin until 1924

Marriages Dec 1924
Caplin Henry Garner Camberwell 1d 1635
GARNER Emma G Caplin Camberwell 1d 1635

The Carash births found
Births Jun 1895 Carash Ruby Dorothy Croydon 2a 241 – Who is Ruby Dorothy Constance Garner on the 1911 census (having taken her step father’s surname)
Births Mar 1897 Carash Claude Albert M Lambeth 1d 531
Deaths Mar 1897 CARASH Claude Albert M 0 Lambeth 1d 303
There are 2 Carash deaths of children whose births have been registered Micklewright. They were twins?
Births Jun 1894
Micklewright Grace Isla Fulham 1a 254
Micklewright Reginald Leonard Fulham 1a 254
Deaths Dec 1894 CARASH Reginald Leonard M 0 Croydon 2a 149
Deaths Mar 1895 Carash Grace Isla M 1 Croydon 2a 236
So it appears that only 2 of Emma Georgina’s children lived to adulthood – Ruby and Cedric.
The Carash BMDs after 1919 (apart from Ruby’s marriage in 1935) all seem to stem from Cedric. In 1901 Cedric is on the census with the surname Sheffield. We haven’t yet found a birth for Cedric either as Carash or Sheffield or even Micklewright!

he should be the brother of Ruby Dorothy Carash 1895 known as Garner, yes, that is what I understand from everything people have found here

I would really contact the people through facebook, you are much more likely to reach them that way than from trees here because so many people no longer get their messages here

just say that your ( is it great-grandmother ? ) is Ruby Carash born 1895 and you think her brother was Cedric Carash born around 1892 and you would love to know more about their mother or any family info they may have :-)

as I said some of the ... hm, probably great-grandchildren, maybe great-great-grandhilcren of Cedric Thomas Joseph Carash have facebook pages ... that would probably be the easiest way to contact the family

look for Tracy, Melanie and Brendan, I think they are probably all siblings
