ArgyllGran, I think I found her in 1881 in Folkestone, born in Chiebokon, which to my mind could be Chilbolton (Hampshire)

You have a point there Kathleen, I am looking at it through modern day eyes.

Thank you everyone for your input, much appreciated.

Violet was my Dad's birth mother so I have no family members to ask questions of, Edgar seems to have been a very colourful character from what I have found out and ended his days as Town Crier in Stockbridge

ArgyllGran Report 1 Aug 2021 18:32

Lucy's first child (1882) is Newman, the second (1885) is Young, and all the younger ones are Dollar, so it looks as if Lucy was with a Mr Young around 1884, and then moved in with Edgar Dollar by 1887.

As his older sister's name was officially Young, and if he was aware that Lucy and Edgar weren't married, perhaps young Alfred thought his mother was also officially Young - and called himself Young when registering to make it sound more respectable.
All speculation!


Lucy with her parents in 1871:

She's with Edgar on the 1891 and 1901 censuses.
Can't see her in 1881 so far.

Registering a death at 17 isn't that surprising. My ancestors were mainly working from 10 or 12 years old by the end of the 1800's and it was legal for boys to marry at 14 at the time of Lucy's death.

Maybe you need to work a timeline for Alfred Dollar Young to see when he added the Young.

No, must admit I haven't got that, There is an 8 year old Alfred on the 1901 census, but I would have thought he would have been too young to register his Mother's death in 1909?
The only vague possible I have found is an Alfred Newman born Lambeth 1894 but have not sent for the certificate
