Hi Rowena ...lovely name..
Thinking out loud here!
James Loader the lodger marries Hannah the servant in Wokingham 1862.
They have no kiddies in 1881, John B Pursey is 12 listed as nephew
There are no more Loader/Pursey marriages so JBP must be nephew of Hannah?
He's back to being a lodger in 1891 with his new wife Catherine.
I shall say TTFN as I'm going to read all again.
Georgie
what a puzzle??

Looks like I am going to have to buy some certificates or pay a visit to the Record Office - I would just love to find out who Mary was as it is a blank on my tree and I have completed all the other lines so when I print my pedigree chart out there is a gap - should be satisfied I have got all the others i guess, but this is an addictive hobby where you just have to know don't you:-)
Thanks again for your help and suggestions

Think Georgie is right Rowena. It's a long time since you posted your query but just in case you're still searching ...
James Loader and wife Hannah Pursey ran the Brewer's Arms in Easthampstead. On 9 May 1891, there was a report of an inquest in the Berkshire Chronicle. It was the death of an infant child of John Bertram/Peter Pursey and his young wife Catherine (Kate) Goble/Gobell.
Hannah says that she adopted John and brought him up. If my research and hunch is correct then John Bertram was the illegitimate son of Kezia Pursey b 1850 - daughter of Joseph Pursey & Elizabeth Simmonds and sister to Hannah. I believe Kezia married 1872, three years after birth of John - but did not take him into the marriage.
I don't know what happened to John's wife Catherine/Kate but it seems John later met Annie Elizabeth Corney and had a family.
