151 Note from Tony Chapman (Jan 17) : Emily Thompson (Tony's father's first wife) and Frank Chapman did not have any children. Emily "came from the West Indies and her father was a judge". Not yet confirmed. Thompson, Emily Florence (I679)
 
152 NOTE. The birth was registered in the Newington District. The earlier births were probably at 11 Cross Street, Newington, Surrey, not far from what is now the Oval Cricket Ground. Churly, Gertrude Victorine (I24)
 
153 Notes on THOMAS CAWTHORNE the husband of MARY (née Baldwin)
and the father of JANE EMILY, who married ALBERT CHURLEY

The following scenario may well represent what did, in fact, happen.
THOMAS CAWTHORN and MARY had three children, the eldest being Alfred, followed by Jane Emily baptised 23rd February 1835 - Lloyds Square, Clerkenwell; and George Adolphus baptised 31st December 1836 - 30 Panton Street, Haymarket.
Later, in 1839, another baby Mary joins the family, when Jane Emily was about four. Both Jane and George, who clearly treated John as their father, may never have appreciated differently, as John could have joined their mother as early as 1837 and have been the actual father of Mary. If Thomas had had a mental breakdown and was still alive, this would account for the fact that Mary's birth was not registered, as John could not marry Mary (née Baldwin).
Following upon Thomas' breakdown, John would have visited him and as a consequence wrote his treatise on mental homes and the treatment of patients in private establishments run by companies under the Limited Liability Act of 1855. The mention of a company being formed under this Act clearly indicates that John may have been alive at least until this date.
But at the time of the 1851 Census, JOHN was not at 43 Norfolk Street when Mary Cawthorne aged 50 describes herself as Head of the Family and as a Widow.

Sources of Information on THOMAS CAWTHORNE

(a) It would seem clear that none of Mary Cawthorne's (nee Baldwin) grandchildren had ever heard of Thomas - the Census of 1861 shows that Mary was living with four of her grandchildren and their Churley parents.
(b) A search of the indices of St. James Church, Clerkenwell and St. Luke's, Finsbury, showed the existence of many Cawthornes and Baldwins.
(c) The baptisms of JANE EMILY CAWTHORN on 23rd February 1835 and GEORGE ADOLPHUS CAWTHORN on 31st December 1836 were recorded in the index for St. James, Clerkenwell, and the details contained in the actual Registers R76 and R77 produced the following:-

Date Name Parents' Christian Names Surname Abode Occupation
23 Feb. 1835 JANE EMILY THOMAS CAWTHORN Lloyd's Square Merchant
MARY SARAH ELIZABETH JANE CAWTHORN
31 Dec. 1836 GEORGE ADOLPHUS THOMAS MARY CAWTHORN 30 PantonStreet Wine Merchant

(d) Searches for records of the elder son ALFRED and the younger daughter MARY born about four years after JANE EMILY, were unproductive.
(e) There is no record of the registration of the birth of MARY in the official records at St. Catherine's House, which commenced to be kept from September 1837.
(f) MARY may have been the child of JOHN! as clearly JOHN and her mother were later living together. If Thomas was in a home and when he died in 1841, JOHN could not lawfully marry his brother Thomas' wife.
(g) Although in December 1836 THOMAS and his wife MARY (née Baldwin) were living at 30 Panton Street, the street directory for 1841 does not show a No.30 Panton Street - only odd numbers, and no house in Panton Street is shown as being owned by a Cawthorne - there were two public houses, but no wine merchants, trading in the street.
The Trades and Commercial Directories for 1841 show a William Cawthorne trading as a Wine Merchant, but not Thomas. Perhaps William, Thomas and John were all brothers!
(h) The only Thomas Cawthorne recorded as buried in London or the Home Counties is one buried at CUCKFIELD, SUSSEX in 1841.
(j) Subsequent searches show that THOMAS, who had been living at a farm near Cuckfield in the house of a widow Mrs. Charlotte Noble, had died aged 44 on 29th September 1841. He was therefore alive when MARY was born in 1839 but because of his illness her birth may not have been registered - he may not have been aware of the birth. Further research produced the fact that Mrs. Charlotte Noble had been Miss Charlotte Cawthorne, having married Mr. William Noble by special licence on 22 July 1809. THOMAS was not buried at Cuckfield. His death certificate shows cause of death as 'Marasmus' wasting away of body.
Bearing in mind that Mary, the wife of Thomas, had given her age as 50 in the 1851 Census, she was probably at least 55; the parish records of St. Nicholas, Brighton, were examined from 1791 to 1799 but no record of her baptism was found (could have been missed). It may be that William Noble had met her in London, even though at this date there were no trains in existence.
It may be worth while making a fresh search of the records of St. James Church, Clerkenwell and St. Luke's, Finsbury for the birth of Thomas and John Cawthorne, as well as of Charlotte. At about this time John and Hannah Cawthorne were having children, one being baptized on 9 January 1792 - so also were John and Elizabeth Cawthorne - a daughter on 11 September 1781.
It would appear that the Record Office of Lewes has not a copy of or details of the Special Licence used by William Noble and Charlotte Cawthorne at their marriage at St. Nicholas, Brighton on 22 July 1809. 
Cawthorn, Thomas (I38)
 
154 NSC
29 Dec 1914 : Osmond Julius Wheatley signs up to join the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force
18 Jun 1915 : Newspaper item on Genes Reunited from Luton Times and Advertiser,: "Captian Osmund Wheatley of the 10th Canadians and son of George Wheatley, jeweller, of Biggleswade has been wounded and is now in Cambridge Hospital....".
Ed Note : is "Osmond Julius Wheatley" the same person as "Osmund Julius Wheatley" ? 
Wheatley, Osmond Julius (I231)
 
155 NSC :
Is this the "Aunt Muriel" that we used to visit in Mold, North Wales for holidays? There was, if I remember, one daughter, and on one visit it was very hot and I got sunburn. I remember mention of "Roy and Muriel" as being distant relatives of my mother. 
Muriel (I577)
 
156 NSC :
James Shirley Hibberd (JSH) was a famous Victorian gardening writer. My mother (Mary Cawthorne) had one of his books which she was keen to return to Betty Ching.

In the 1881 census James Shirly Hibberd was shown as a widower and Ellen Mantle (b 1856 d 1885) as the cook. Address : 15 Brownswood Park, Green Lanes, Hornsey. In 1884 James Shirley Hibberd marries Ellen Mantle at Hackney. 1885 : Ellen Shirley Hibberd is born in Richmond, Surrey.
1890 : James Shirley Hibberd dies in Richmond.

The early death of Ellen Shirley Hibberd's father (when Ellen was just five) might explain why Cameron Charles Montague Mitchell adopted Ellen. The photos suggest Ellen (or was she called Nellie?) was a full part of CCCM's family. 
Hibberd, James Shirley (I587)
 
157 NSC :
Joan Kennedy was Betty Kennedy's (later Betty Ching) sister who had no children. 
Kennedy, Joan (I563)
 
158 NSC : A note of unknown source says that "Harriet" married a Dr Hubbard. Could this just be this Emma Churly? Emma Churly is shown as having a marriage registered in Islington in Sep 1853. A "Alfred James Hubbard" is also shown as having his marriage registered in Sep 1853 in Islington. Further research needed here. The same unsourced handwritten (by NSC) note says there was a daughter called Marion. There is a Marion Elizabeth Hubbard shown as Birth Mar 1880 at St Geo H Sq. Maybe this is a grand-daughter rather than a daughter! Family F20
 
159 NSC : Can't find Audrey E Mitchell's birth on FreeBMD. Mitchell, Audrey Elise (I508)
 
160 NSC : Did Tom go to Australia? Granny (Mary Cawthorne) remembers meeting Tom during WW2. Tom wife killed by a volcano? There are little or no details on either Tom Glasier nor his brother Fred Glasier. More scope for research. Glasier, Thomas (Tom) C (I505)
 
161 NSC : Eric Prrom Lawrence is Andrew Lawrence's father. The "proom" is something to do with Norwegian royalty? Lawrence, Eric Proom (I557)
 
162 NSC : FreeBMD says : Sarah Clewett died aged 52 in 1895 with the death registered in Lambeth. This ties in with her birthday in 1843. They are believed to have lived in Windlesham. Would they then have had their death registered in Lambeth?  Churly, Sarah Robina (I55)
 
163 NSC : John Zecchini was the best man at Tommy and Alice's wedding in 1935. Not a relative. Zecchini, John Edward (I561)
 
164 NSC : Julie O'Brien : Uncle Tommy's sister. Born in Ireland. She was the headmistress at various Schools including one in Holland Park. Died in a nursing home in Forest Row and was cremated near Crawley. O'Brien, Julia (I556)
 
165 NSC : Kevin was sadly killed at the age of 13 when he was knocked off his push-bike by a drunken motorist. Kevin and his pal were cycling home for the first time on their bikes when they were both knocked over by the passing motorist. Kevin died a few days later and his pal remained in a coma for a long while. [Kevin's pal is presumed to have eventually died too.]  Lawrence, Kevin David (I444)
 
166 NSC : More likely birth year is 1873.

Lilian married William Spalding, who owned part of a big store in Nottingham "Griffin & Spalding".

The store was eventually bought out by Debenhams. There were no children, but there was money. My mother (Mary Cawthorne) recalled that Shirley Mitchell (her father) had loaned Uncle William £4,000 which was never repaid. Alice Mitchell was a God-Daughter to Uncle William. The original Griffin & Spalding store was built in 1886.

There is a "Lilian A Spalding" who died in Nottingham in 1965 at 92 years old. This is presumably Lilian? 
Mitchell, Lilian Alice (I515)
 
167 NSC : My grandfather was in the habit of giving his children "relevant" names. The "Blomfield" in my father's name referred to Sir Arthur William Blomfield (1829-1899) who was a famous Victorian architect. Cawthorne, Alfred Stuart Blomfield (I14)
 
168 NSC : Rosemary's notes say that there was a Mitchell son born who died at birth and who came between Peggy (Margaret b Dec 1907) and Granny (Mary b May 1912). There are two Mitchells shown on FreeBMD whose death at age 0 are registered in Hendon between 1908 and 1910 : Frederick Sep 10 and John Jun 11.
Unfortunately there is no Mother's maiden name again Frederick (it would have been Glasier) and the Mother's maiden name against John is "Mitchell".
The assumption here is that the birth/death would have been registered in Hendon District. 
Mitchell, Son Died at Birth (I559)
 
169 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Mutton, Lilian (I554)
 
170 NSC : This marriage was originally shown here as being in "Cullompton, Devon". However FreeBMD says that Charles Felix Clewett and Sarah Churly were married in Lambeth district. The "Dec 1862" agrees with the 16 Nov 1862 date. Family F25
 
171 NSC : Was "Norman Gunning" the one attacked and killed by a shark in Singapore on the way home from Japanese PoW? Which of the Gunnings was it that Aunt Peggy went to Southampton to meet when they returned from PoW? And where the Southampton council gave the PoWs a welcome dinner with Rice? Gunning, Norman (I501)
 
172 NSC : William A Spalding : part owner of "Griffin & Spalding" department store in Nottingham. The store was purchased by Mssrs W Griffin and J T Spalding in 1878. The business was managed by William A & Harold Spalding and Percy Griffin, the sons of the original owners. In 1944 the family accepted an offer from Debenham's, who continued to trade under the Griffin and Spalding name until 1973, when the business changed to Debenham's as part of a national rebranding. William Spalding married Lilian Mitchell in 1906. Spalding, William Arthur (I516)
 
173 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Hollands, Edwin Clement (I215)
 
174 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Hollands, Joshua Ian (I214)
 
175 NSC: Can't find any "Sylvia Cawthorne" under the Deaths on FreeBMD in 1893, but there is a Sylvia Maud Woods whose death (aged 0) is registered in Shoreditch in late 1893. And there is a Sylvia Maud Woods Birth registered in June 1893. Was Sylvia (who supposedly only lived a few hours) perhaps registered for some reason under her mother's family name (Woods) and not her father's name (formerly Churly, but latterly Cawthorne)? Maybe the recent name change by deed poll had something to do with Sylvia being registered as "Woods"? Cawthorne, Sylvia Maud (I303)
 
176 Olive is the first wife of Richard GM Cawthorne, referred to in the 10 April 1970 article in The Glasgow Herald in which Lady Rosemary Mactaggart the former wife of Sir Ian Mactaggart, the Scots baronet, is named in the divorce suit by Mrs Olive Cawthorne. Richard GM Cawthorne is described as a "former Commando sergeant". Lady Mactaggart, daughter of the late Sir Herbert Williams, MP for Croydon, did not defend her husband's divorce suit in December 1968 when he was granted a decree nisi.

Olive and David had six children : Martin, Gary, Richard, Rebecca (Bonnie) Winona and Geraldine. Geraldine was the eldest.

21-May-16 : Geraldine confirms that Olive Mary was known as "Mary" and that her maiden name was indeed Wargent. Supposedly a corruption of an "Austrian" name? 
Wargent, Olive Mary (I384)
 
177 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Armstrong, Jamie (I429)
 
178 One of Leora's two children (Jamie and Ella). Armstrong, Ella (I430)
 
179 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Cawthorne, Luke (I388)
 
180 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Cawthorne, Sarah (I389)

185 Percy James Popplewell's 1st cousin who was an artist with oil painting(s) hung in The Royal Academy (currently owned by Rupert Cawthorne having been left to him by his mother) Barnard Rook, George (I263)
 
186 Peter Cawthorne's sister. She has two daughters. These daughters in turn have three sons and two sons.

"Christina M A Cawthorne" appears in the Births twice: once in Apr-Jun 1962, but then with a hand-written addition/amendment to the Jan-Mar 1947 listing. Since Christina was married (to Richard Stillwell) in 1972 the 1947 amendment entry seems more likely!

Chrisrtina's Mother's name is given as Macleod in the 1962 entry and as McLeod in the 1947 amended entry. 
Cawthorne, Christina M A (I391)
 
187 PHYLLIS CHRISTOBEL
Born on 9th July 1906 at High Croft, Egmont Road, Sutton to Percy James Popplewell and Minnie Louisa (nee Wheatley), the youngest of the family, having an elder sister arid two older brothers.
Her father was an architect specialising in church architecture, having been articled to Sir Arthur Blomfield and having studied in Italy. In addition to his design work for several churches, he collaborated in the design structure of the Law Courts in the City of London. In 1912 he set up on his own, but with the outbreak of war in 1914 he joined H.M. Office of Works but did not enjoy his work. He was a member of the H.A.C. and Vice-Captain of their cricket team.
Her mother was the eldest of ten children of George Wheatley, a Jeweller of Nottingham, but was fifteen years younger than Percy Popplewell when at 18 she married him, but Phyllis recalls that their marriage was ideally happy.
Phyllis was at first educated at home by a governess until the age of nine, when she went to the Old Palace C. of E. Convent School in Croydon; finally she continued her education at Croydon High School for Girls (part of the Girls Public Day School Trust). 
Popplewell, Phyllis Christobel (I4)
 
188 Registered in November 1828 births of:-

Nov. 1823 JANE }
1827 URSULA} Uffculme
Apr. 1828 URIAL }

The next one registered was:-
11 Sep. 1839 JAMES HUSSEY

Born at No. 13 Cumberland Street East, Regents Park.
(This may have been Cumberland Market)

THOMAS was described as a BUTCHER in 1857 in this district.
Did he sell Gaddon in 1829 on his father, URIAL’s, death and move to London with ROBERT and CHARLES?

There are probably many children whose births were not registered 
Churley, Thomas Ballyman (I75)
 
189 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Pigott, Marjory Patricia (I200)
 
190 ROBERT, born 1798, was the third surviving son of URIAL and would have spent his boyhood at GADDON. When he was 21 he became engaged to JOANNA FROST and their banns were read in UFFCULME parish church, but the marriage was called off. On 27th October 1822 - three years later - he married MARY FRY, their first son born and being baptised on 24th December 1822. ROBERT and MARY seem to have been lax in registering the births of their twelve children - the first three being registered only on the death of the third - however, the following seem to have been the family:-

Baptised 24th Dec. 1822 WILLIAM BALLYMAN Per Parish Register at Uffculme
Born 18th June 1824 OLIVER - do -
“ 3rdMar. 1826 ARTHUR BALLYMAN (died 1827) - do -
About 1826 JAMES Per 1841 Census living with William Fry at Uffculme
“ 1828 ARTHUR Per 1841 Census at Cullompton
“ 1830 ALBERT WILLIAM BALLYMAN - do -
“ 1832 SEPTIMUS - do -
“ 1834 OCTAVUS - do -
“ 1835 EMMA - do -
“ 1837 MARY ROSETTA - do -
“ 1839 ANN - do -
“ 1843 SARAH Per Birth Certificate

ROBERT, at the time of his marriage, gave his occupation as BUTCHER and he continued as such until his sudden death under an apoplectic fit in 1846. In addition to the butcher’s business, probably carried on in partnership with his younger brother CHARLES, he was a yeoman farmer outside Cullompton, the address given in the 1841 census as ‘Pumptery’, or it may be “Sumptery” = Pack Horse.
Sometime after ROBERT’s death in 1846, the family moved to LONDON and MARY died in March 1862 in LAMBETH.
It is of interest to note from the death certificate that when Robert died "of apoplexy in 24 hours", he appears to have been suffering from Hepatitis, which was not known to anyone. One can picture what a tragic sudden loss it must have been when he died at only 49, leaving of his twelve children nine under 18, ALBERT WILLIAM BALLYMAN being only 15 or 16 and the rest varying from 3 to 14.
ROBERT's elder brother, THOMAS, was now living in LONDON, probably at No. 13, CUMBERLAND STREET EAST, REGENT'S PARK and it is not unreasonable to assume that MARY and her children were found accommodation in LAMBETH by him and the elder boys work, and ROBERT's eldest son, WILLIAM, about 25 at the time, was living at 3 Sussex Street, Tottenham.
The family could by this time have travelled to London, as the main railway line had been opened from Taunton to Bristol and London in 1842, although to get from Exeter to Taunton via Cullompton it was still necessary to travel by coach, but by 1844 the Bristol and Exeter Railway through Cullompton was open. Perhaps the family travelled soon after Robert's death in 1846.
ROBERT's death was thus the end of generations of yeoman farmers and an uphill climb for his young family commenced.
Cumberland Street, Regent's Park must have been about ten minutes' walk across the Park from EMILY JANE CAWTHORNE's father's house in 23, Norfolk Road, St. John's Wood, both houses being at the outer ring of the areas becoming built up, and within a few hundred yards of open country at this time. However, in 1859, when ALBERT married EMILY JANE and his sister MARY ROSETTA married, the CHURLEY family were probably living in the parish of St. Mary's, Newington, S.E.

193 Sarah Ann Gough married George James Cawthorne on 19 Aug 1891. Died aged 80 in Windlesham in 1913. Sarah Ann was born in about 1833 and would have been some 35 years older than her second husband Georges James who was born in 1868. George would have been about 23 and Sarah Ann about 58 at the time of their wedding.
The Wills notice says that Sarah Ann Cawthorne (wife of George James Cawthorne) was of The Cottage, Up Down Hill, Windlesham, Surrey and that her effects were £136 15s 3d. 
Gough, Sarah Ann (I34)
 
194 Search for forebears of GEORGE CHURLEY, who married MARY PARR at UFFCULME on 8th June 1736.

The parish registers of villages near to UFFCULME have been searched from about 1670 to 1720 and no actual mention can be found of the birth of a George who can be assumed to be this George.

From the CULMSTOCK parish registers it is clear that there were many CHURLEY families in this small town in the late 1600s and early 1700s. It is also very clear that substantial parts of this parish’s registers are missing (see letter from present Rector dated 11th November 1976).

Prom the copies of an Indenture of 1711, it seems that there were at least two George Churleys in the place, but neither would appear to be this George, because very likely he was not of age in 1711, even if he lived in Culmstock (his last son was born in 1762!).

The parish adjoining both UFFCULME and CULMST0CK to the north is BURLESCOMBE, at which church on 31st October 1710 URIEL CHURLY and PATIENCE CHURLY (of UFFCULME) were married - presumably they were cousins. At this time a URIEL CHURLY was churchwarden of Burlescombe Church and most probably the father of the young man being married at this church rather than at the bride’ s church of Uffculme.

It is noted that George and Mary christened one of their sons URIAL in 1746, a year after the URIAH CHURLEY of BURLESCOMBE bad been buried at UFFCULME, and a year later called a daughter PATIENCE (after George’ s mother?).

All the above point to the probability that GEORGE’S parents were URIEL and PATIENCE and the register shows as follows:-
31st Oct. 1710. URIEL CHURLY m. PATIENCE CHURLY of UFFCULME
2nd Jun. 1712 ELIZABETH baptised.
11th Apr. 1719 ELIZABETH baptised

If GEORGE was born in, say, 1711, why was his birth and baptism not registered, as one would have expected the Grandfather - the churchwarden - to have insisted upon? Could it have been because the wedding of URIEL and PATIENCE was a “shot-gun wedding”, a fact which the churchwarden would not have wished to advertise? (Clearly in 1736 the marriage of GEORGE and MARY was a “shot-gun wedding”.)

If URIEL and PATIENCE CHURLEY of UFFCULME, who had been married at BURLESCOMBE, were not the parents of GEORGE, he could have belonged to another branch of the Churley family who were Congregationalists.

There are no records in existence of Nonconformist births or baptisms for any part of East Devon for this period. However, it would seem that the family of JOHN CHURLY of CULMSTOCK, who married ALLICE MARSHALL of UPFCULME on 8th January 1701, were Congregationalists, as when Allice died on 19th Nay 1732, she left £60 to her cousin (?) JOHN CHURLY a “Congregational Minister” at UFFCULME.

Allice, who died four years after her husband, seems to have left all her estate to members of her own family - not to her husband’s family. If John had been the father of George, he could have left his own estate to his son George, but we cannot find John’s Will. However, this family really gives no indication that it was George’ a family.

The Will of Allice Churley can be seen at the Public Records Office, Trowbridge, Wilts

Male aged 59 died in 1864.
Something wrong here if Alfred was born in 1826, he would have been 38 in 1864, and not 59.

200 Sources of Information on JOHN CAWTHORNE

(a) Edie's letter, probably written soon after her mother's death in 1923 to brother George.
"I remember the Mater telling me that Grandpa was first trained as a doctor, but did not like it, so his Father consented to his changing to the Law". Edie enclosed some papers which she thinks had something to do with Grandpa.
(b) Letters written to Jane Emily Cawthorne (George and Alfred's Grandmother) ending with the words "Ever my dearest Girl, Your affectionate Papa, John Cawthorne".
(c) Letter written by young George A. Cawthorne about 1850.
(d) The treatises on mental care, which are almost certainly written by John, and in which he refers on page 7 to the Limited Liability Act - which came into existence in 1855; but prior to that date Limited Liability could be obtained by Charter or special Act of Parliament.
(e) The marriage certificate of Jane Emily Cawthorne (then about 25) dated 11th August 1859 refers to Father's name and surname as John Cawthorne, Solicitor (not John Cawthorne, deceased).
All the above suggest that John Cawthorne may have been alive in 1855 and probably in 1859.
(f) Edie gives life 1795 to 1853.

However:-
A Census of 1851, when the family (excluding Alfred, the eldest, and George Adolphus) were at 23 Norfolk Road, shows Mary as Head of Household aged 50 and she describes herself as Widow, proprietress of houses.
In a Census of 1861, Mary Cawthorne, when living with her daughter Emily Churley, is described as Widow aged 71. If her husband had left her or had a mental breakdown, it is possible that she would have described herself as widow. BUT there is really no inconsistency as she was really "a widow", the wife of the late Thomas Cawthorn, the brother of John.
The date and place of John's death has yet to be proved, but 8th April 1851 would seem to fit in with other evidence.

NSC : Unsourced note says that "John C died of blood poisoning following a train accident on the way to Devizes". No idea if this relevant or accurate? 
Cawthorne, John (I42)
