    Default Edmonds/edmunds

    Is anyone able to look up parish records of st Philip and st Jacob Bristol. Looking for details of baptism possibly April 1899 for lily Edmonds. Wondering if names, addresses, work etc are shown. Parents could be lily and Harry edmunds although some confusion between censuses as appears father is sometimes shown as Harry and at other times Henry. There were other children in the family violet, Elizabeth, Henry (Harry) and possibly younger brother. Any marriages or deaths? Of parents henry(Harry) and lily
    Thanks

    Welcome to British-Genealogy Gill

    You are wanting more details for this baptism shown on familysearch.org?

    Lily Edmonds
    Christened 1899 at St Philp and Jacob Bristol Glouc
    Born 1899
    Father - Harry Edmonds
    Mother - Lily
    Batch C17288-2

    Harry is a quite common nickname for Henry.
    I would say this is them in 1901

    Thanks Christina for getting back to me .i have access to ancestry and therefore census. Is there anything else about any of the other children...trying to find Lily's maiden name or if they got married in the church. Harry(Henry) snr was born in Birmingham but Lily was born in Bath and all children born in district of st Nicholas Gloucester

    Hi
    I can't find a marriage for a Henry/Harry Edmo(u)nd(s) to a Lil(l)(e)y and am beginning to think he may have been using a second name.

    There is this birth

    Births June 1/4 1880
    Joseph Henry Edmonds Birmingham vol 6d page 73

    It may be that in the end the only way to find Lily snr's maiden name is to purchase a birth certificate of one of their children.

    Someone else may find what my eyes are missing

    Hi Christina

    Yes will apply for birth certificate for violet as she is the only one that makes any sense at the moment. Her brother Henry/Harry is my husbands grandfather...have marriage certificate for him. However GRO could not find birth certificate. I have got marriage certificate for violet and fathers name on there is Henry edmunds but it is all so confusing now...will take your advise and get certificate of birth. Violet and Henry both married in Cardiff and can't find Elizabeth

    Thanks

    Gill
