William Henry Silas CURTIS

1857 - 1910  (~ 53 years)

 Set As Default Person

• Name	William Henry Silas CURTIS
  Relationship	with Teresa Ann GOATHAM
  Born	Mar Q 1857	Plymouth, Devon, England
  	About 1856 from 1901 census where shown as aged 44, GRO ref: Curtis, William Henry Silas q1 1857 Plymouth RD 5b 224; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Warmington
  Baptised	Baptisms found for all siblings except a couple who died in infancy, so it seems probable William would have been baptised. There was a gap, though, before four of his sisters were baptised at the same time in 1868 - perhaps William was considered old enough to decide for himself and decided not to be. (Have looked at index on FMP, not browsed registers for likely churches)

  Family	Jessie Louise GOTHAM,   b. 6 Dec 1861, Shaldon, Devon, England ,   d. Dec Q 1944, Plymouth Reg Dist, Devon, England  (Age 82 years)  Other Partners: Albert John HENNINGS  m. 23 Jun 1889
  Married	4 Oct 1897	St. Jude’s Church, Plymouth, Devon, England
  	GRO ref: Hemmings, Jessie Louisa to Curtis, William Henry q4 1897 Plymouth RD 5b 481 Details from DFHS transcribed data (shows Jessie Louisa Hemmings married William Henry Curtis, no other info about the couple included) Like so many, Jessie filled in the 1911 census incorrectly where years of marriage and number of children were concerned. As a widow she should have left these fields blank, but her entries are readable although crossed out. She shows the number of years since she first married (22) and the total children and children living and died also appear to apply to both marriages, the figures being 6, 5 and 1. With her in 1911 were her 2 sons from her first marriage and 3 children from her second. A child from her first marriage had died in infancy. The GRO online index (with mother's maiden name) seems to agree these figures.
