In one of my previous posts some kind contributors highlighted the fact that Ellen may have been separated from her husband John Angus Burnside citing London Electoral records. Could anyone who has access to such records please tell me who else is listed with her at any addresses they are able to find. Many thanks.

I don't know - but would imagine that there should be an actual birth cert as well.

Depends if you think it's worth £30 to find out one way or the other!

Can't remember where I got Belly from but I'm sure there must be something in it because you wouldn't make it up would you. Thinking about his marriage in Jersey do you think there would be any point in looking for a civil record. Would an army marriage record be sufficient?

Yes, that's from the link I posted in the previous post. [ EDIT: that sentence in reply to a post Ian has now deleted.]

But where did you find that "Belly" was John's birthplace?

The website is free to use.


But no, I don't see any sign of him there.

Where did you find the info re his birthplace?

Google hasn't heard a place called Belly.
But maybe it's Bellee?

Is John Burnside's birth on irishgenealogy? He was born in 1838 in Belly Bushmills Antrim. before enlisting in 1857 aged 19. He was transferred to 11 Battalion in 1858.

Ian-
re "Lucy Flannery disappears" -

bear in mind that she was probably only visiting the Burnsides, and just happened to be with them on the night of the 1871 census.

In other census years she would likely be at home in Ireland, and therefore won't show up on censuses.

However, I don't see her birth or marriage , as either Flannery or Ryan, on Ancestry, FS, or irishgenealogy.ie.
Can't see Margaret's birth/baptism either.

You say ‘ Lucy Flannery disappears’

Did you give any consideration to the possible death I posted?

I couldn't find Theresa in the 1911 census only Irene who was being looked after by a Sarah Cox. I wonder if she had been abandoned by the family after Herbert;s death but they were prepared to pay for the upkeep of the child.

Theresa in the workhouse in 1911 - so her husband couldn't have been one of the moneyed Chasteauneufs you mentioned:

Yes Margaret Kettleband was the sister of Elizabeth and Theresa. It is interesting though to hear you say that the Kettlebands and John Angus Burnside and Family both lived at the same address.in 1901 (52 Jackson Street) This is another link for me to establish that John (Angus) Burnside is the same as John Burnside born Woolwich 1870 9no middle game given) because he would have been living here at the same address as his sister and mother.

As Elizabeth Burnside was working at Brook Hospital in 1901, I think this is probably Theresa Ann, also at Brook Hospital.
She's listed just above Elizabeth on the document:
