702 Red headed son of the squire???

His marriage certificate lists his father as "unknown"

A Thomas Barber was christened on 13 SEP 1835 in Old Swinford (15 miles from Clent). His mother was Sarah Barber and no father was given. (source IGI)

VIS - was the squire called Amphlett? (Tom Amphlett Christened Old Swinford 25 Oct 1804) Closer to Old Swinford than Elmbridge is Four Ashes Hall, Between 1811 and 1854, James Amphlett Grove owned the house, and died childless. The inheritance was traced back and passed to the great great granddaughter of the second son of the original owner. Do we have a claim? :-)

720 Son Of William?

I have arbritarily made Thomas son of Thomas (and Mary) son of William because of time lines and the new found existence of his assumed father. There also seems to be another Thomas and Mary though contemporary with this Thomas and his Sarah

There are a lot of Instones about in the Elmbridge area and more than a few Thomas Instones with wives called either Sarah or Mary.

This is as far as the tree legitimatly goes at this time - all the rest is conjecture

Dear Mr. Lewis,

Having read your article in last night's mai1, I thought you might be
interested in the recollections of my mother Mrs. Violet Priest who is
91 years old and has a very clear memory.

She left school in 1901 when she was 13 and started work at Southall's
winding and pinning bandages.  Shortly afterwards a Law was passed
preventing girls under 14 from working in factories.  She had to leave
and went to work in Service minding a baby. 5he was the only servant
employed and had to sit in the kitchen alone at night. She was terrified
of the cockroaches flying about and after her employers heard her
screaming she was allowed to sit with the family.

When she was 14 she was able to go back to Southall's winding bandages.
Shortly afterward she left and went to work for the Dunlop Rubber Company
at Aston Cross, examining cycle tyres. She had to walk each day from the
top of Alum Pock to be at work by 6.15 a.m. and worked until 6.0 p.m.
The factory gate was shut promptly at 6.15 a.m. and anyone locked out
would have to wait until 8.l5 a.m. before they were allowed in. This
time was usually spent at Jelf's cafe. ~be had to work until 1 o'clock
on Saturday when all the workers had to line up in the drive to be paid.

She had always wanted to be a dressmaker but couldn't afford the fees
but she decided to leave Dunlop and she then went to make babies'
pinafores at 4d per dozen, having to find her own cotton. However,
she could not earn enough money at this job and as she was the eldest
of five children she had to go back to Dunlop until she got married.

Even the long working hours did not prevent her cycling after work
to Earlswood to a dance. She also went dancing at Bird's Assembly Rooms,
which later became the Hippodrome.  As a child she knew Aston Cross with
the horses and cabs lined up at the rank and also the circus coming to
the field in Rocky Lane.

My mother lives with me and spends her time helping with the household
chores, reading knitting, doing jigsaw puzzles, playing scrabb1e and
is always ready for an outing to the country or to visit relatives.

Hoping these few comments will be of interest to Kathie Sandler

(Nora May Barwick néé Priest) 
Rennie, Violet (I17)
 
727 The Assasin, refers to the occasion, when in support of female suffrage, he
entered the House of Commons and fired a blank from a revolver shouting
"Votes for Women". The newspapers subsequently described him as an assasin.
His mother had to go to court and he was released into her custody - as she couldn't speak English there was some confusion. 
Shew, Ernest (I66)

735 Was this Eleanor? Born 1894 Angood, Eleanor (?) (I86)
 
736 Was this Thomas Hartley who maybe married Ethel Coleman in Clitheroe?
Clitheroe JUN 1904 8e 611

No obvious Ethel Coleman births in Lancashire in 1885-1887

Did he die in Oldham in 1907 age 30?
Oldham JUN 1907 8d 440

Or even Haslingden age 32
Haslingden JUN 1907 8e 114

------------------------------------------------------------------

Maybe Ethel Brierley born Oldham JUN 1886 8d 604
married Alfred Hartley in Chorlton SEP 1904 8c 1703

and did he die in Chorlton in DEC 1908 8c 450 age 37?

If so, he would be 33 and she 18 when they married.

Why was Freda born in Halsingden?

To find out: Freda's birth certificate; Ethel and Arthur's marriage certificate; Ethel Brierley and Alfred Hartley's marriage certificate.
