the death cert needs buying and the marriage one to in order to go back for further family info

I did nudge this thread to accompany another one, definately needs some certs ordering to clarify things, especially as these are direct line ancestors.

There is nothing obvious on the a2a site re the murder either, no record of an inquest, trial or mention of the name for the timeframe.

That's right (except that Jessie was born in 1916). That's why I'm puzzled about Tina's first post, when she said her gran was "formerly known as Pemberton".

so seems Sarah didnt remarry !! she was Sarah Pemberton and she married William Parkinson in 1898 .
Jessie Rosina was born Jessie Rosina Parkinson mmn Pemberton so she married in her birth surname of Parkinson

I've had a quick look in the Times Digital Archive, but I can't find anything about the murder.

Tina, where did the information in your first post come from? Does it say "formerly known as Pemberton" on your gran's marriage certificate?

and the marriage

Marriages Sep 1898 (>99%)

In that case heres Williams death ref

Oct qtr 1917

William Parkinson age 38 Southwark 1d 4

Guys Hospital would come under Southwark

I haven't found a Parkinson-Pembleton marriage.

There is this Parkinson-Pemberton marriage, but Wigan's a very long way from London, and anyway the wife isn't called Sarah:

Marriages Dec 1912 (97%)
PARKINSON Mary O / PEMBERTON Wigan 8c 223
PEMBERTON William / Parkinson Wigan 8c 223

I would hazard a guess that this is your gran's birth, but if so, it means that her mother's maiden name was Pembleton and her married name was Parkinson:

Births Mar 1916 (>99%)
Parkinson Jessie R / Pembleton Wandsworth 1d 871

thers no William Pemberton death reg sept or Dec qtr 1917 !!

was he William Pemberton

Have you got the marriage cert for William to Sarah? Name and occupation of his father should (hopefully) be given.

His birth cert will give you both parents names (assuming his parents were married)


The only likely William Pemberton marriage to a Sarah on freebmd is in 1901 unless they married well away from the London area. Is the maiden name of Sarah really Pemberton or something else?

Glen

yes sorry she was 3 so far as i no it happened in southwark (lambeth) he was 38 he was born in 1880 and died in guys hospital in 1917 20th sept his name was william and married to sarah pemberton

To allow people to help you, if that is what you wish, you must give us some idea of the years in which these events occurred.......plus the location.

Full names of the people involved would also be helpful.........

Reg

"murdered at the age of 3"......is that a typo? Do you mean she was 3 when he was miurdered?

If you are trying to trace back from him then you will need to find some details for him, ie his marriage, birth etc. Census returns either for him or his ancestors together with the relevant certs/baptisms etc.

If you want details about the murder itself then you can try the a2a website, local newspapers etc, they might also give clues for other family members.

Without knowing who, where and when it is difficult to say where you should look.

Glen

anyone no of the pemberton family my grans father was murdered at the age of 3 her surname was pemberton then her mother re married and took the name parkinson which bacame my nans maiden name until she married herself which then made her a collins (jessie rosina collins) maiden name parkinson as we knew her but formerly known as pemberton
