My gt.grandfather was Charles Edward Thomas (born c1860 in Southampton). He married Caroline Jane Read (born 27.4.1863 in Boldre, near Beaulieu). Charles's parents were Philip Henry and Elizabeth Thomas, Caroline's were James and Eliza. They had 10 children, born between 1882 and 1903. I would love to make contact with any descendants, but especially with those of Charles and Caroline's siblings. One of Charles and Caroline's children was also called Charles. He was born in Plaistow, East London in 1884. From at least early 1891 onwards, he was living back in Southampton with his Read grandparents and was still there in 1901, employed in a fizzy drinks factory. It is possible, of course, that he died in WWI. I have a good bit of a family tree, but there are lots of gaps I'd love to fill. The 10 children were: Caroline Elizabeth Charles (Edward?) George E. Ellen N. or M. Mabel Frances Frederick William (Killed WWI) Harold W. Robert Philip (My grandfather) Percy E. Bertie John Claude Cecil Louis (and two other names!) I have made contact with two lots of descendants - it would be lovely to find the rest! Margaret Usmar |
