The former churchyard of St Peter, Drypool. St Peter, the fisherman, sits firmly and pensively on the site of the church, demolished following Second World War bomb damage. 

George Markham (bap. 4 Jun 1809 in Messingham, Lincolnshire), son of Joseph Markham and Sarah Dawson, married Mary Storm (b. ~1811), on 13 Oct 1828 in the parish of Sculcoates, All Saints, which at that date, the marriage will have taken place in the ancient St. Mary's Anglican church, Sculcoates. Witnesses were a Joseph Gleadhill and a John Bradbury (relationships not known). No baptism found for this Mary Storm, however, as George's maternal grandmother was also a Mary Storm, it seems incredibly likely George and Mary could have been cousins.

George and Mary Markham's children:

1. Joseph Markham b. 23 Aug 1830, bap. 19 Sep 1830 in Drypool, St Andrew *
2. Sarah Ann Markham bap. 9 Dec 1832 in Drypool, St Andrew. * On Sarah's baptism, their address is given as Groves, Sutton - a slum area in east Hull, a riverside community of mills and cramped terraces along Cleveland Street.
3. Mary Jane Markham bap. 13 Oct 1835 in Drypool, St Andrew. * On this baptism, their residence was listed as Holy Trinity [Parish]
4. William Markham bap. 14 May 1837 in Drypool, St Andrew. * Residence Holy Trinity Hull. Buried on 25 Jun 1837 at Holy Trinity, father Geo Markham.
5. Richard Markham b ~1843 (No birth or baptism record found.)

* Although listed as the parish of St Andrew, St. Andrew's Church was not consecrated until 1878, so these baptisms will have been at the former St Peter's Church, Drypool Green. Destroyed by bombs in 1941, its shell survived the war, the tower being the last part to be demolished. The churchyard is now a garden.

Joseph Markham was baptised at the same time as his aunt, Martha Markham, his father's youngest sister, so we can be in no doubt that this is the right family.

In 1841, George Markham (30) (rounded) Publican; Mary Markham (30), Joseph Markham (10), Sarah Markham (8) and Mary Markham (6) were living in Raikes Street, Drypool. Sadly, there are no clues to the name of the pub. (There's reason to believe: Raikes Street (or Church Street) (Drypool), that Raikes Street was the same as, or renamed to Church Street. This gives an insight into the area.) 

In 1861, George Markham (52) Farmer, from England was in the Township of Reach, Ontario, Canada, his religion Primitive M [Methodist]; with Mary Markham (50), Joseph Markham (31) Minister; Eliza Ann Markham (23) (wife of Joseph); Mary Jane Markham (25) and Richard J Markham (18) Teacher.

In 1871, George Markham (62) Farmer was living in the Township of Mariposa, South Victoria, Canada with Mary Markham (60) and Mary Jane Markham (36). On this census return their religion is expressed as "Eps Meth" (Episcopal Methodist).

Mary Markham, wife of George Markham, died aged 66 on 21 Mar 1878. She is buried at Bethel Cemetery, Greenbank, Durham, Ontario, Canada.

In 1881, George Markham (71) Farmer, Widower, was in the Township of Reach.

George Markham died on 3 Jan 1885, aged 76 and is buried at at Bethel Cemetery, Greenbank, along with his late wife. (I cannot account for the utter blasphemy of suggesting that they were from the "wrong side of the Pennines".)

John Travis and Mary Markham

Across the road from the former churchyard of St Peter's, Drypool, the Victoria Dock Tavern. Opened by local brewer, Simon Cook, late 1820s, as the Albion, a famous sailing ship of its day. Its name was changed in the 1840s to reflect the construction of Victoria Dock.

John Travis (b. 26 Aug 1816 in Worksop, Nottinghamshire), by trade a Turner, son of George Travis and Charlotte Tall, married Mary Markham, daughter of Joseph Markham and Sarah Dawson, on 2 Oct 1841 in the Parish of Drypool, St Andrew. Both gave their address as Great Union Street. Although listed as the parish of St Andrew, Drypool, St. Andrew's Church was not consecrated until 1878, so they will have married at the former St Peter's Church, Drypool Green. (Destroyed by bombs in 1941, its shell survived the war, the tower being the last part to be demolished. The churchyard is now a garden.) Witnesses to their marriage were Henry Redmore and Mary's sister, Martha Markham, who themselves married in 1844.

When John's parents married, at All Saints Church, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, on 1 Aug 1815, George Travis was described as 'Labourer of the Parish of Worksop in the County of Nottinghamshire', which explains John's birthplace.

John and Mary Travis had no children of their own.

In 1851, John Travis (34) Labourer from Worksop, Nottinghamshire, was living in Cumberland Street, St Paul, Sculcoates with Mary Travis (29).

In 1861, John Travis (44) and Mary Travis (39) were occupying 150 & 151 Church Street, St Marys Sculcoates. It hasn't been possible to read John's occupation.

In 1871, John Travis (54) Oil Miller was living at 41, Lime Street, Sutton, Sculcoates with Mary Travis (49).

In 1881, John Travis (64) Dock labourer was living at East Side, 37, Grange Street, Sculcoates with Mary Travis (59) Grocer.

John Travis died, at 74, in 1891 M Quarter in SCULCOATES.

In 1891, Mary Travis (69) Widow, Grocer, lived at 78, Grange Street, Sculcoates with Ada M Redmore (18) Dressmaker, Niece. (Great-niece, daughter of James Markham Redmore, elder son of Henry Redmore and Martha Markham.).

Mary Travis, widow of the late John Travis, Oil Refiner, died on 6 Jun 1897 (in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 142), according to the notice published in the Hull Daily Mail. Mary Travis (76) was buried on 9 Jun 1897 in the parish of Sculcoates, All Saints. On the burial record, her abode is listed as Workhouse. Presumably the Sculcoates Union Workhouse, later the Beverley Road Institution and eventually Kingston General Hospital, this was undoubtedly because it was the only place people could then get treatment and care in sickness and old age.

Joseph Tummon and Jane Hatcliffe

Joseph Tummon (bap. 20 Nov 1808 at All Saints Church, Sculcoates), son of Joseph Tummon and Mary Williamson, married Jane Hatcliffe (bap. 18 Mar 1817, in Panton, Lincolnshire), daughter of John Hatcliffe and Elizabeth Bratley, on 29 Aug 1836 at the parish of North Somercotes, Lincolnshire. As with so many earlier records, at best, clerks wrote down what they heard in regional accents: Joseph's surname is listed as Tummins and Jane's as Atcliff with the aitch dropped. :)

Records suggest Joseph and Jane had three children:

1. Sophia Alice Hatcliffe Tummon b. 1836 in Swinefleet, Yorkshire
2. William Henry Tummon bap. 7 May 1838 in Marshchapel, Lincolnshire. Their surname on William's baptism was also listed as Tummins.
3. Thomas Tummon b. 1841 in Marshchapel, Lincolnshire

In 1841, living in Marsh Chapel, Louth, Lincolnshire, were Joseph Tummons (sic) (30), Jane Tummons (20), William Tummons (3) and Sophia Tummons (5). On the 1841 Census, Joseph's occupation is listed as Agricultural Labourer.

Then Joseph Tummon died, at just 42, and was buried on 5 Sep 1849 in the parish of St. Andrew, Drypool - then a village - presumably, ironically, in the churchyard of the ancient parish church of St. Peter's Church, Drypool. The building was destroyed by bombs in 1941. The churchyard is now a garden.

In 1851, in Thornton Street, Sculcoates, were Jane Tummon (31ish) widow, Dressmaker; Sophia Alice Tummon (14), William Henry Tummon (13) Weaver; Thomas Tummon (10) and Hugh Millar, a Hawker, Lodger.

In 1871, Jane Tummon (49ish) Seamstress, was living at Winters Alley, St Mary, Hull with Emma Hatcliffe (24) Charwoman, Niece and William Robinson (60) Dock side labourer, Boarder, which suggests he also had meals provided.

Jane Tummon died, aged 53, in the last quarter of 1871.

Robert Leeming & Margaret Crowley & Alfred James Amass

Hull Minster, King Street, Kingston upon Hull

Hull Minster, formerly Holy Trinity Church, mainly 1300-1425.

Robert Leeming (b. 1840) Greengrocer of Robinson Row, Hull, son of James Leeming and Jane Irwin, married Margaret Crowley (b. 1850), younger daughter of Thomas Crowley and Elizabeth Molloy, at Hull Holy Trinity, on 15 Jun 1870. 

This was not Robert's first marriage, however, as he had previously married widow, Sarah Brown (née Barber) on 12 Nov 1865, at All Saints Church, Sculcoates. He's described as a widower on his 1870 marriage to Margaret Crowley, but I've not found the record of Sarah's death. His first marriage did not produce children.

On his 1865 marriage, Robert lists his father as Robert Leeming, Soldier. In 1870, he again lists his father as Robert Leeming, but with his father's occupation given as Shoemaker. After much digging, we discover his step-father was Robert, while his biological father, James Leeming, was both a soldier and a shoemaker.

Robert Leeming's birth, in 1840, is listed in the Gro Regimental Birth Indices, Royal Artillery, in Drypool, England. And in 1841, James Leeming (37), Jane Leeming (24), Elizabeth Leeming (4) and Robert Leeming (1) were all listed as living at the Citadel and Barracks Hull, Drypool. "The Citadel" was a moated triangular bastioned artillery fortification built in the 1680s in the south-west corner of Drypool.

James Leeming, born in Lancashire, had enlisted in the Royal Regiment Of Artillery on 11 Nov 1825 - his previous trade being Shoemaker - and was discharged, at Woolwich (Royal Artillery Barracks) - son James was born here in 1845 - on 14 Sep 1846, having served for 20 years and 336 days, 7 years 5 months of that in Gibraltar. He was discharged due to chronic rheumatism, which the army judged impaired him and was as a result of his military service. Upon discharge at the age of 43, he was 5ft 9in, with fair hair, grey eyes and a fresh complexion. 

Three years later, he was dead and was buried, on 17 Sep 1849, in Drypool.

Jane Leeming (34), widow, Charwoman pauper, born in Eastbourne, Sussex, was, in 1851, living Whytalls Place, Drypool, with her five children: Elizabeth (13) Servant; Robert (10), William (8), James (5) and Margaret (3). Then, on 27 Nov 1851, listed as Jane Lemon, she married Richard Plank, Soldier, at All Saints Church, Sculcoates. On this marriage, she lists her father as James Irwin, Soldier. At this rate she was at risk of being seen as a jinx on the regiment, as Richard Plank (38) died the following year in 1852. Hence, it was Jane Plank who married Robert Wright in 1856. In 1861, Robert Wright (47) from Norfolk, Greengrocer, at 17, Broadley Street, Hull, was living with wife Jane Wright (44) and step-children, Robert Leeming (21) Greengrocer, James Leeming (16) Shoemaker and Margaret Leeming (13).

Jane Wright (formerly Plank, previously Leeming, née Irwin) died, aged 52, in 1870, in Hull. NB: I never did find a record of her first marriage to James Leeming.

After they married in 1870, in 1871, Robert Leeming (34) Shop keeper, and Margaret Leeming (20) were living in Broadley Street, Hull, next door to William Henry Tummon, whose wife, Elizabeth Crowley was Margaret's sister. 

The marriage between Robert Leeming and Margaret Crowley didn't produce any children either and there must have been 'an estrangement', because in 1881, Margaret Crowley (31) Dressmaker, was living as a boarder in the house of Alfred Amass (26) Dock labourer from London, at 8, Empringham Terrace, Hull.

Then Robert Leeming died, aged just 44, in 1884, in Sculcoates.

Unsurprisingly, Margaret Leeming (35) remarried, at St. Matthews Church, Hull, on 15 Jun 1885 to Alfred James Amass (29), reputedly son of Samuel Amass. Reputedly, because there appears to be no such person as Alfred James Amass until 1881: no birth, does not appear on any previous census.

But they had 5 lovely daughters:

1. Emma Leeming Amass b. 1883 (there's no registration nor baptism, presumably to avoid formalising this secret 'premature' birth)
2. Gertrude Amass b. 1886, bap. 14 Dec 1887 at St John the Baptist, Newington, Hull
3. Ada Amass b. 1887, bap. 14 Dec 1887 at St John the Baptist, Newington, Hull
4. Maud Amass b. 1889, bap. 7 Oct 1891 in Newington
5. Eva Amass b. 1891, bap. 7 Oct 1891 in Newington

The family's address on the four baptisms was given as 86 Glasgow Street, Hull. Margaret's father and brother also lived in Glasgow Street at this time.

In 1891, still in Glasgow Street, Newington, were Alfred Amass (34) Fisherman, Margaret Amass (40), Emma (7), Gertrude (5), Ada (3) and Maud (1).

Then in 1901, the family were living at 55, Scarbrough Street, Sculcoates with Alfred James Amass (45) Ships husband, Margaret Amass (50), Emma (17) Office cleaner, Gertrude (15), Ada (13), Maud (11) and Eva (9).

Alfred James Amass died, aged 50, in Sculcoates, in 1905.

In 1911, Margaret Amass (60) was living at 45 Scarborough Street, Hull with Ada (23), Maud (21) Assistant teacher; Eva (19) Housemaid and two boarders, Frederick (16) and Charles (15) Johnson, both from Crewkerne, Somerset.

In 1921, Margaret Amass (71) Mother-in-law, was living with James and Eva Gibbins at 75, Edinburgh Street, Hull.

 Margaret Amass (née Crowley, formerly Leeming) died, aged 77, in 1928.

• Emma Leeming Amass (20) married William Henry Sole (23) Engine Fitter, son of James Sole, both of 91 Bean Street, Hull, on 3 Aug 1903 at St. Matthews Church, Hull. Witnesses were the bride's father, Alfred James Amass, and Elizabeth Sole, William's younger sister.
• Gertrude Amass (21) married Willie Brown (22) Carpenter, son of James Brown, Iron moulder, both of New Cleveland Street, on 16 Sep 1906 at St. Mark's Church, Hull (St Mark In The Groves). St Mark's was built in 1843. It was badly bombed and demolished in the 1950s. The Groves was a slum area in east Hull, a riverside community of mills and cramped terraces along Cleveland Street. Witnesses were James Brown (probably NOT the Godfather of Soul) and Mary Ellen Brown.
• Ada Amass (25) married James Wilson Brown (36) Tailor, also son of James Brown, Iron moulder, of New Cleveland Street, on 22 Mar 1913 at St. Matthews Church, Hull. There were three witnesses: J Brown, E Amass and A Brown. So it appears that the two sisters, Gertrude and Ada, married two brothers, Willie and James.
• Maud Amass (23) married George Arundell (23) Iron moulder, son of James Vickers Arundell, both of 45 Scarborough Street, Hull, on 8 Mar 1913 at St. Mary and St. Peter's Church, Dairycoates (The old church building was taken down in February 1962 to make way for the Hessle Road flyover which replaced the Dairycoates level crossing.) Witnesses were William Henry Sole (Emma's husband) and Eva Amass.
• Eva Amass (25) of 20 Witty Street, Hull, married James Gibbins (22) Boiler maker of 68 Havelock Street, son of William Gibbins, on 16 Jun 1917 at St. Mary and St. Peter's Church, Dairycoates. Witnesses to this marriage were William Henry Sole (again) and Olive Gibbins.

Thomas Crowley and Mary Ann Wood

Looking south along Lowgate. From left to right: St Mary's church, the Guildhall, The Lowgate Centre at 76-78, the City Archivist at No.79, a former bonded warehouse.

Thomas Crowley married Mary Ann Wood, on 8 May 1808 at the church of St Mary Lowgate. Unfortunately, there's no indication on these early records of who their parents might have been and no baptism records early enough to go further.

The following records exist for children of Thomas and Mary Ann Crowley:

1. Mary Ann Crowley bap. 27 Feb 1809 at St Mary Lowgate, buried on 2 Apr 1809 at Drypool, St Andrew, described as daughter of Thomas Crowley.
2. Thomas Crowley bap. 25 Dec 1812 at Hull Holy Trinity
3. Ann Crowley bap. 14 Jun 1814 at St Mary Lowgate
4. Mary Crowley bap. 13 Mar 1816 at St Mary Lowgate
5. Charles Crowley bap. 27 Nov 1817 at Hull Holy Trinity
6. Sarah Crowley b. 26 Jun 1819, bap. 19 Jul 1819 at St Mary Lowgate (assume died as infant as there are no further records, but name used again.)
7. William Crowley bap. 31 May 1821 at Hull Holy Trinity
8. Sarah Elizabeth Crowley b. 22 Jan 1823, bap. 31 Mar 1823 
9. Frances Emma Crowley b. 26 May 1827, bap. 31 Dec 1830
10. Margaret Wood Crowley b. 31 Dec 1829, bap. 31 Dec 1830

The final three baptisms also took place at Hull Holy Trinity.

On the baptisms from 1814 to 1819, Thomas Crowley is described as a Grocer in Lowgate. Then on those in 1821 and 1830, a Grocer in Myton [Street].

On son Thomas' marriage in 1858, he describes his father as a Corn Factor and on his third marriage in 1869, as a Merchant (deceased). On their marriages, Ann Crowley and Margaret Wood Crowley, both describe their father as a Grocer.

In Jan 1834, Thomas Crowley was sentenced at Hull to 7 years [imprisonment] for receiving stolen goods. Remarks on his character read, "Bad. Convicted before."

In 1841, Mary Crowley (50) Lace worker, was living in George's Place, Cumberland Street, Sculcoates - no sign of her husband - with son Thomas (25) Groom; Charles (20) Painter; Sarah (26), Frances (14), Margaret (11) and Elizabeth Crowley (20) wife of Thomas Crowley. William Crowley (20) Painter was lodging or boarding in the household of a George Reynard, in York Street, Sculcoates.

In 1851, Mary A Crowley (62) Sempstress (another term for seamstress), widow (I've found no record of Thomas Crowley's death), was living at 3, Raywell Street, Ann's Place, Sculcoates, with daughter Margaret Crowley (24) Lace worker.

In 1861, Mary A Crowley (72) widow, was living in the household of her son Charles at Harritt Buildings, 5, Marlbro Crescent, St Pauls, Sculcoates.

Mary Ann Crowley died, aged 75, and was buried on 14 Dec 1864.

Joseph Markham and Sarah Dawson

Joseph Markham (bap. 14 Jun 1782 at St Oswald's, Althorpe), son of Joseph Markham and Ann Caukwell, married Sarah Dawson (bap. 24 Nov 1787 in Winteringham), daughter of George Dawson and Mary Storm, at All Saints Church, Winterton, Lincolnshire, on 12 Apr 1808. Sarah was of that parish, while Joseph Markham's residence at the time of his marriage was listed as Messingham. Witnesses were George Dawson, Robert Coggan and James Markham.

Joseph and Sarah's children included:

1. George Markham bap. 4 Jun 1809 in Messingham, Lincolnshire
2. John Markham bap. 22 Dec 1817 in Drypool, St Andrew *
3. William Markham died, aged 15W - weeks - and buried 30 Jun 1819 in the parish of Sculcoates, All Saints & St Mary's, son of Joseph and Sarah
4. Mary Markham bap. 5 Aug 1821 at Drypool, St Andrew *
5. Martha Markham b. ~1824, bap. 19 Sep 1830 at Drypool, St Andrew *

(With such large gaps, there's every possibility there were more children.)

* Although listed as the parish of St Andrew, St. Andrew's Church was not consecrated until 1878, so these baptisms will have been at the former St Peter's Church, Drypool Green. Destroyed by bombs in 1941, its shell survived the war, the tower being the last part to be demolished. The churchyard is now a garden.

On Mary's baptism, the family's residence is listed as Summers Gangs.

Sarah Markham died at 45 and was buried on 3 Aug 1833 in Sutton on Hull.

Joseph Markham, Widower, Oil Miller, then remarried to Hannah Horsfield, Widow, in the parish of All Saints, Sculcoates on 1 Jan 1838. It would appear that Hannah's first husband was John Horsfield, who had died at approximately aged 40, and was buried on 23 Jun 1832 at Hull Holy Trinity. Hannah was originally from Stainland, West Yorkshire. John and Hannah's daughter, Sarah Ann Horsfield, was born in Halifax, however there is more than one marriage between a John Horsfield and a Hannah, in Halifax (probably the most likely option) and even one in Sculcoates. It has therefore not [yet] been possible to discover Hannah's maiden name.

In 1841, Joseph Markham (55) (wrongly listed as John - was this Hannah getting her husbands' names confused?) Oil Miller, was living in Church Street, Sculcoates with Hannah Markham (50), Sarah Horsfield (15) and Henry Horsfield (14). There was a John Markham (25) Tailor, presumably lodging, in the household of William Addy (30) Fruiterer, in Queen Street, St Mary, Kingston upon Hull; Mary Markham (20) was a F. S. (female servant) in the household of Charles West (35), in North Street, Sculcoates and Martha Markham (15) was a Female Servant in the household of William West (40) Miller, in Church Street, Sculcoates. 

In 1851, Joseph Markham (68) Seed crusher, birthplace listed as Burringham, Lincolnshire (residence listed on his baptism in 1782 was Burringham), was living at 58, Church Street, St Paul, Sculcoates, with Hannah Markham (60) and Thomas Jubb (19) Engineer, Lodger. 

Joseph Marham, of Church Street, died, at 69, on 14 Jul 1851 (S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 22 Page 362) and was buried at the Sculcoates Sacristy Cemetery, in Sculcoates, All Saints & St Mary's parish on 24 Jul 1851.

In 1861, Hannah Markham (70) Annuitant from Halifax, Yorkshire was living at 13, King Street, Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland, Durham. 

In 1871, Hannah Markham (81) Widow, Annuitant, Mother-in-law, from Yorkshire, was living in the household of Rogerson Pickering (47) and Sarah A Pickering (48), in Northumberland Street, Bishopwearmouth. (Rogerson Pickering had married Hannah's daughter, Sarah Ann Horsfield, in Sculcoates, in 1845.)

Hannah Markham died, in her 82nd year, in 1872 S Quarter in SUNDERLAND.

Alfred Redmore and Esther Glew

Alfred Redmore (b. 1874) son of James Markham Redmore and Anne Elizabeth Newton, married Esther Glew (b. 28 Jun 1879), daughter of Thomas Glew and Hannah Amelia Broomby, at St Andrew's Church, Drypool, on 6 Apr 1902.

Alfred and Esther Redmore had twelve children:

1. Ivy Redmore b. 3 Aug 1902 (1902 S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 217), bap. 27 Aug 1902 at St Andrew, Drypool. At the time of Ivy's baptism, the family lived at 7 Golden Avenue, Abbey St.
2. Annie Elizabeth Redmore b. 16 Sep 1903 (1903 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 195), bap. 14 Oct 1903 at St Andrew, Drypool.
3. Edith Redmore b. 18 Sep 1905 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 172, bap. 11 Oct 1905 at St Andrew, Drypool. Edith died, aged 1, on 16 Mar 1907 (1907 M Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 157) and was buried on 19 Mar 1907 at the City Cemetery, Hedon Road. The burial record lists her (highly unlikely) cause of death as 'Teething'. [1]
4. John Redmore b. 6 Feb 1907 M Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 206, bap. 6 Mar 1907 at St Andrew, Drypool. This time the family were living at 7 Elder Ave, Abbey St. John died, aged 4, on 7 Oct 1911 (1911 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 224) and was buried on 10 Oct 1911 at the City Cemetery, Hedon Road. Cause of death listed as 'Fever'.
5. Lily Redmore b. 18 Jun 1908 S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 189, bap. 1 Jul 1908 at St Andrew, Drypool. Lily Redmore, daughter of Alfred Redmore, Printer, died, aged 20 (1928 J Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 203) on 24 Jun 1928 from Consumption (Tuberculosis) and was buried at the City Cemetery, Hedon Road on 28 Jun 1928.

12. Stanley Redmore b. 13 Nov 1916 (D Qtr in SCULCOATES Vol 09D 344)

The mother's maiden name on all of the registrations is GLEW.

[1] "In the 1900s, some doctors believed there was a link between teething and sudden infant death syndrome, but this is now widely believed to be incorrect. Further, many misconceptions about the symptoms of teething were held in the past, both by caregivers and by doctors." Teething - University of Leeds

It's clear that Albert Redmore and Alice Redmore, both born and died in the first quarter of 1911, were a pair of fraternal twins. Even now in our own times, twins are five times more likely to die than single babies in their first year of life.

In 1911, living at 1 Kingston Villas, Estcourt Street, were Alfred Redmore (35) Printers Clerk; Esther Redmore (30), Ivy Redmore (8), Annie Elizabeth Redmore (7), John Redmore (4), Lily Redmore (2) and Alfred Redmore (1).

Asher Swift (b. 1827), son of William Swift and Mary Ann Lister, married Sarah Ann Grayburn, reputedly daughter of John Grayburn, on 12 Mar 1848 in the parish of Sculcoates All Saints, Yorkshire. As the church of All Saints wasn't opened until 1869, the likely venue for the marriage was either St Mary's, or St Paul's, both of which have since been replaced. [See: Churches in Sculcoates]

There is a baptism of a Sarah Ann Graburn at Hull Holy Trinity on 5 Jul 1837 with parents John Graburn and Frances Crawford. As several siblings are listed as being born that year, it seems more likely to me that they were born in different years and were baptised together in a catch-up as Civil Registration was introduced that year. Additionally, as one of Asher and Sarah Ann's children is named Frances, this also supports the theory that this is the correct baptism and parents.

Asher and Sarah had eleven children, ten survived:

The mother's maiden name on these births is listed as Grayburn, Greyburn or even Graburn. All spellings have been checked year-by-year at the GRO.

In 1851, Asher Swift (24) Mechanic, was living in Upper Green, Bradford, with wife Sarah A Swift (23) and daughter Mary Swift (0).

In 1871, it appears they were living in St Luke, Hull, Yorkshire.

In 1881, the family was living at 7, Goschen Place, Drypool, Sculcoates, Yorkshire, with John Swift (54) Engine Fitter - was Asher known as John in the family perhaps - Sarah A Swift (52), Elizabeth Swift (18) Laundress, Jim Swift (14) Boiler maker apprentice, Ada Swift (12) and Alice Swift (10).

In 1891, in Pelham Street, Southcoates, were Asher Swift (64) Steam Engine Fitter, wife Sarah A Swift (62) and just youngest daughter Alice Swift (20).

Then in 1901, Asher Swift (74) Retired Fitter and wife Sarah A Swift (72) were living in Buckingham St, Hull.
