Amy Palmer

[Ladybird1300]

Amy was married to James Read 22nd June 1822 St Goerge Hanover Square, can't tell if she was a spinster as there isn't a referece to it.

I have them both in the 1841 census St Pancras, she was b c1791 in county. Can't find them in 1851 and in 1861 James is married to Mary.
I'm looking for a death for Amy and her baptism, and I'm also looking for a marriage for James to Mary.

Many thanks
Amanda

Hi Amanda.......can't help with most of it but you have the marriage year wrong.....it should be 1823 as per London Marriages and Banns.

What does 1861 tell us about James and Mary?
How do you know it is the same James?

 

[Ladybird1300]

Because he has a daughter Eliza Jane Adley Read in 1825 and he has a son John Adley Read still living at home in 1861. He is still a paper hanger/decorator and by then had moved to St Pancras/Islington where my husband's father was born in 1903.

Can find James, Mary and Adley in 1861 but can't find James and Amy in 1841 or for that matter Eliza Jane Adley except for her birth

Unless Amy died before 1841, she is Ann in the census. In the 1861 census it’s John Adley Read b 1839 St Pancras.

On the 1861 0n FamilySearch it says..
James Read. Head 60 Strand, Middlesex
Mary Read. Wife 65 Margate, Kent
Adley. Son 21 St Pancras, Middlesex

James is a Master Painter
Adley is a Lithographic Printer



Elizth. Jane Adley Read born 16 Dec 1825 to James and Amy

John Hadley Read born 06 Nov 1839 to James and Amy

The original says John Adley Read, and that will be right for James by then he would be a master painter.
So may be Amy died in the 1840’s or 50’s. But I haven’t found a death for her.

I've found a death in Islington in 1874 for an Amy Read b 1796, I think the 1861 census is wrong and Mary should be Amy.

Hi Amanda,
So many name changes for Amy not sure where to go here and where did the name Adley,(Hadley), come from? Perhaps Amy's birth name as Adley and she married a Palmer who subsequently died, mor questions than answers. The 1841 with Ann that I can seen, St Pancras HO107 682/6 6, I don't think it's them also not Westminster HO107 738/27 6. There is a tree on FamilySearch, LC3N-YQC , which has James and Amy and give's James's parents as James and Dorothy, is this correct? Maybe we should start with a known fact, your husband's father 1903 and work back.

The original says John Adley Read
