Hi

Is there anyone researching the Hoare family from Aston.

Would love to here from you as there are a few Hoare familys within Aston but unable to find a link between the name .

Regards
Tracey

Tracey it is best to give the details of the people you are looking for

your post will soon sink back into the archives and no one who might recognize it will see it ... unless maybe they find it using google for example

for that to happen it is best if you have full names and dates in your post

also be sure to put the family in your tree here at genesreunited

and to search trees ( the button up in the top row ) for others with the same names

have a look at the 'how to use' post at the top of this board and it will help ... then you can just add a post to this thread ( the 'add reply' box down at the bottom ) with more details

it is unlikely that any related person will reply but if you have specific questions other members may be able to help ... just browse a few other threads here to get a feeling

I don't think my Hoare family way back in my tree is connected at all with Aston unfortunately ! :-D

Hi

Thanks for your reply my great grandfather was Arthur Hoare 1900.

His father was Thomas Hoare 1877 married to Mary Ann Beesley .

They were both from birmingham.

Thomas's father was also called Thomas 1856 he married an Eliza?.

This Thomas was from Cornwall but unable to find anything else. I know through family that there is an Irish link but this hasn't yet been established.

Hope this makes sense lol.

oh my goodness Cornwall there is a chance our Hoares are related after all !

North hill and St Stephens by Saltash ... !!

unfortunately I do not know enough about my Hoares ( who are from at least three generations before Thomas abt 1876 ) to be able to tell .........

one thing to remember is that the name in Cornwall was spelt several ways ... Hore and Hoar too


but those 1881 Cornwall Hoares ... may not be the right ones

where is the 1901 Thomas with mother Eliza, in 1881 and 1891 ??

this is the Cornwall one in 1891

Name: Thomas Hoare
Age: 14
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1877
Relation: Servant
Gender: Male
Where born: St. Stephens, Cornwall, England
Civil parish: St Stephen

and here he is in 1901 so unfortunately he is not the man we are after

Name: Thomas Hoar
Age: 24
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1877
Relation: Son
Father's Name: Thomas Hoar
Mother's Name: Emma Hoar
Gender: Male
Where born: St Stephens, Cornwall, England
Civil parish: Saltash St Stephen


in 1901 mother Eliza says she is married

chrissiex Report 4 Sep 2011 22:59

there was no Thomas Hoare born in Aston or Birmingham 1875-1878

do we think perhaps mother Eliza was not married ?

is the information about Thomas's father being Thomas taken from his marriage certificate ?

if that is the case ... it was not uncommon for children of unmarried parents to name a fictitious father ... in some cases it was their maternal grandfather

Hi thanks for your replys

I have certifucates for arthur and his wife from my nan. His fathers army records also confirm the details i have from family .I know selina (Lena) had a market stall in Birmingham.

Have researched parish records, find my past , ancestry, bmd, free reg cornish records etc. I have eliza and selina (lena)also living with son thomas at one point.

and can you tell us where the info that his father was Thomas from Cornwall comes from please ?

we understand you have researched but we don't know what you have found and where you found it :-)

it doesn't help others to help, you see, just to know that you have something ... we have to know what it is !

your Thomas simply does not seem to have existence before his marriage ... have you found traces ? likewise there is no trace of Selina in 1891, that I can see

if you have his marriage certificate what occupation does it give for his father Thomas ?

Tracey1972 Report 4 Sep 2011 23:08

Hi

Details for thomas living with Eliza again by son thomas in richard street. He may have been working away in the 1901 census and was working as a gas maker. Daughter selina was still living with them in 1911.

chrissiex

chrissiex Report 4 Sep 2011 23:10

Tracey if you could answer the questions it would be interesting

where are they before Selina's birth in 1887 ?
does her birth certificate name Thomas Hoare as father ?
do you have Thomas's marriage certificate to Beesley ?
if so what does it say about his father ?
have you found Thomas's birth and do you have the certificate ?

when you say Thomas Sr 'may have been working away' in 1901 and you say he was working as a gas maker ( what is that ? ) where is that information from ? can you tell us where Thomas Sr was in any census at all ?

chrissiex Report 4 Sep 2011 23:15

okay well sorry you just aren't giving us enough information for anyone to help

if Thomas Sr is on the 1911 then you know where, you know what his year of birth was ... we don't so we have no way to help search for him so there we go

chrissiex

chrissiex Report 4 Sep 2011 23:17

using 'richard' as place of residence and 'cornwall' as place of birth

is this him ?

HOARE THOMAS 1855 56 Aston Warwickshire

is 'Cornwall' all it says for place of birth ? I do not subscribe to see details


Bodenham is in Herefordshire

I tried the search using 'bodmin' which is in Cornwall as the place of birth but that was not it


I suggest that you find the information you have and then come back with it so you can say what it is and where it came from rather than 'I think I have', seriously, we are all happy to help, but this does not work

To Mary Ann Beesley 6d 479 St marys aston road birmingham. haven't yet ordered certificate. As mother living with son thomas and then showing her again with the correct familys children in 1911.

There is no records anywere before 1901 for Thomas 1877 and thomas 1876 .

Next step is ordering the certificate. That is why i posted on here to see if there was a link between the other hoare familys that were living in aston at that time.

Hi all

Thank you for all your help. Sorry i haven't been that great at posting info.

I really do think you might be onto something here. I will work with this new info and see what i find.

Many man thanks guys for your hard work , other trees i have worked on have been fairly straight forward . Not this one and with a name i didnt believe was that common , it certainly wasn't when i was growing up anyway.

I would say it is almost a certainty this is your Thomas since at least there is no other such Thomas who landed up in Warwickshire !

it is not an uncommon name in the records in Cornwall ... unfortunately ... that is why I have had no luck sorting my own out :-)

the three spellings are all interchanged in my own family's history, what few records I have with the name ( one person whose name is spelled one way at his baptism while his brother's is spelled another, then differently in the 1851 census and differently again on his second marriage in the 1870s )

it is pronounced 'oar' which is why in that 1871 census the name was first written as something starting with an O ... I think it says Ower ... and then scratched out and written Hoar

from the little I have read it seems not to be related to the Hoare clans from other parts of England, whose name may be related to Haw and Hawes

chrissiex Report 5 Sep 2011 00:15

I wonder whether this could be your Thomas

Births Jun 1877
Hoares Thomas Birmingham 6d 161

yes ... there were dozens of 'Hoares's born in 1877 when in fact I doubt it is a name at all ... I suspect all because the transcriber misread 'Hoare" ...

and yes, yes, yes.

the list on the original page of the index is typed and the name at the top of that list is HOARE not HOARES so the transcriber made one mistake and it was applied to the whole list.

there he is your Thomas

when you apply for the birth certificate make the name HOARE and not Hoares because Hoare is what it says in the actual index

find that entry at FreeBMD or Ancestry and you will be able to look at the page to check

I will submit the correction for the whole list to FreeBMD
