Find Ancestors

trying to find my great grandparents edward allen and his wife alice allen in 1905 gave birth to my grandfather edward leslie allen and address was 3 nixs yard norton street grantham, would apprreciate any help please

No Edward Leslie Allen born 1905 Grantham area showing in 1911. Trying other variations.
Do you know if they were in Lincolnshire, or did they move around?
Have you got the marriage for Edward to Alice?
Thanks

very weird, I did manage after some time to find edward l allen on his own, unfortunately I know very little, the other information I have is that when his mother my great grandmother died in 1915 in Hull the address there was 3 allinson terrace, walker st, hull but that prob wont be on there yet.

This death, (so born in 1884):
Deaths Sep 1915
Allen Alice 31 Hull 9d 358

yes that is her, details are correct, want to go back and try and find her marriage when and where, but no details whatsoever on my greatgrandfather her husband edward allen

patchem, the details you gave of alice allen in hull 31 died 1915 is correct, sorry hope I am doing this right

No my great grandfather was only edward allen, no middle name and he married alice king

I think you need to get the birth certificate to find Alice's maiden name:
Births Sep 1905
Allen Edward Leslie Grantham 7a 462

Added:
So Alice is King?

I have got birth certificate of grandfather showing alice as King and have got her death certificate as well in county of kingston upon hull

What was the occupation of Edward Leslie Allen's father on the birth certificate?

yes occupation was ironfounder's labourer

Just for background:
Births Sep 1905
Allen Edward Leslie Grantham 7a 462
Births Dec 1906
Allen Edward Leslie Chesterfield 7b 803

I have found this 1911 - address 8 Alices Terrace,Norwood St, Hull

ALLEN, Henry William Head Married M 27 1884 Dock Labourer Hull Yorks
ALLEN, Alice Rose Wife Married 4 years F 29 1882 South Lincolnshire VIEW

This couple have had four children born alive but all have died by 1911.


So, is this your Alice but the husband's name is given as Henry and not Edward, or do you have the wrong death certificate perhaps?

My instinct is that the 1911 above is for the following marriage

Marriages Dec 1906
******ALLEN Henry William Hull 9d 538
GILES Bristow Lamle Hull 9d 538
Skaith Damaris Hull 9d 538
******Wray Alice Hull 9d 538


The 1911 for Bristow Giles shows his wife as Damaris.


So, the death in 1915 in Hull is more than likely for the Alice Allen (nee Wray) who was married to Henry William Allen. On the death certificate does it say 'wife of' or 'widow of' ???? Allen. Could you possibly post all the details from the certificates you have.

Hi there, no I positively have the correct certificates, I lived with my grandfather Edward Leslie until he died in 1980 in birmingham, he has the original small death card with her death 30 august 1915 and interred in hull cemetary on 2nd september 1915, beloved husband of Edward Allen. On the death certificate it states wife, died Hull workhouse infirmary ud aged 31 years, address 3 allinson terrace, walker street, hull ud, died of broncho pneumonia. Edward Leslie birth certificate is born 22 July 1905 3 nix's yard, norton street, spitalgate, grantham, father edward allen, mother alice allen formerly king, profession of father ironfounder's labourer.
I have managed to find that in 1911 census his mother and father were living in gosberton and had had 3 children only 2 alive but were not living with them.

thanks anyway

jules

Thank you Jules.

This is possibly the 1901 census for the Alice Allen born in Gosberton from the 1911 posted above

1901 England Census

Still can't find a marriage for Alice King to Edward Allen though so I can't be 100% sure that this is the correct family for Alice.

Just in case - here is the 1911 for Robert King (possible father to Alice)

KING, Robert Head Widower M 60 1851 Farm Labourer Northants Narboro
DRAGE, Hannah Daughter Married (under 1 year) F 23 1888 Deeping High Bank Lincs

So, Edward Leslie Allen isn't with his maternal grandfather in 1911.
