June

you asked for

Gladys Wellsmand (edit:- Wellsman) 1899, mother Esther


so these people ahve very kindly found a Galdys Wellsman born 1899 on the 1901 Census


The information shown on the Census was that the family consisted of:-

William Wellsman 24 b.ca 1877, Blackfriars, London
Esther Wellsman 20 b.ca 1881, High Barnet, Middlesex
Gladys Wellsman 1 b.ca 1900, Clapham, London


Further information was then found for you:-

a) marriage of William Wellsman and Esther

Marriages Mar 1900 (>99%)

Clarke Esther Lambeth 1d 481
Wellsman William Stanley Lambeth 1d 481

.. showing that William had two forenames ... William Stanley


b) a baptism showing that Gladys was probably born before her parents were married

Name: Gladys Herbert Wellsman Clark
Record Type: Baptism
Date: 9 Mar 1900
Mother's Name: Esther Clark
Parish: All Saints, South Lambeth
Borough: Lambeth
County: Middlesex

The address given was 41 Jeffries Road



you will have to buy the marriage certificate to discover the actual date William and Esther were married.



c) Gladys Esther Wellsman married Ernest Walter Abbott (printer) in 1921

The fathers' names were William Stanley Wellsman and John Abbott

One of the witnesses was a Doris Wellsman ..... the suggestion being that she was a possible sibling of Gladys.





You then say " William wellsman was married again to My grandma Elizabeth Harvey in 1907 had one child William wellsman


IF that is so ...... then we are dealing with TWO William Wellsman


This is the marriage for William Welssman and Elizabeth Harvey, as taken from th eLondon marriages:-


London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921

Name: Mary Elizabeth Harvey
Age: 23
Estimated birth year: abt 1884
Spouse Name: George William Wellsman
Spouse Age: 28
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 1 Sep 1907
Parish: All Saints, St Marylebone
County: Middlesex
Borough: Westminster
Father Name: James Harvey
Spouse Father Name: George William Wellsman


George William is a Bachelor, age 28, Warehouseman, and lviing at 48 Howard Buildings.

His father was also a Warehouseman


if he was 28 in 1907, then he was born ca 1879

Mary Elizabeth is a Spinster, no occupation shown, and address is 1 Metropolitan Buildings.

Her father is deceased, but was a Corn dealer




Hope this answers most of your questions
