Thank you, that is perfect. The Jacob ties in with Philipps family. How on earth did you find the fathers names. I am new to this and have been looking for several days!

Ancestry has the London marriage registers and father's names and occupations are given on them.
Good luck with you further research and if you need any more help all you have to do is add to this thread.

You were all very helpful in helping me find The name of Carolines father, yesterday. Is the only way to find her mothers name, to obtain her birth certificate? Or are there other records, I can look for, before I resort to this?
Thank you.

Well i would have said that this was her baptism but father's name doesn't match

This may be her baptism

Baptism Date: 23 Jun 1872
Father's Name: William Frederick Thompson
Mother's Name: Ellen Thompson
Parish or Poor Law Union: South Hackney St John of Jerusalem

This is the family but he certainly isn't a quartermaster!

Thanks, Astra. But I do not think these can be her. On her marriage record, fathers name is Charles as I definitely know that she married Philipp Hinderer. Their child Maud is my grandmother. on a census for 1891 I have found a Caroline Thompson living as a servant in a German household of Bakers, named Wohensiedler, in St George of the East. As Philipp Hinderer was also a German baker, I've sort of put 2 and 2 together and assumed that this was probably her.
I'll just have to keep searching (or send for the birth cert)!
Thank you for taking the time to look for me,
Lesley
