19001 There is baptism entry for a Sarah Rowling, daughter of Joseph Rowling and Harriet Kemp which fits Joseph ROWLAND (ID3630) and Harriet Kemp

 
ROWLAND, Sarah Joanna (I6397)
 
19002 There is a 1923 drowning death in Coburg, Melbourne that likely is him.
Following is a report from the newspaper, Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957), Tuesday 4 September 1923, page 4
FARMER CRITICISED.
Leaves Body in River.
Having been informed that the body of a man had been seen in the Yarra at Templestowe, John Cox, a farmer, continued milking his cows. He went to look for the body on the following day. His action was strongly criticised by the deputy coroner (Mr. Phillips) at the morgue yesterday, when an inquiry was held into the death of Eben Gammie, aged 67 years, who was found drowned on August 27. Cox said in evidence that he was milking cows at about 5 o'clock on the afternoon of Sunday, August 26, when he was told that there was the body of a man in the river. He told a young man to inform the police, and continued milking his cows. On the following morning he went to the river and found the body of Gammie.
Mr. Phillips. - It is extraordinary that a man hearing of a body in the river does not do something. Probably you were more interested in your cows, and had they been in the river you would have gone.
Continuing, Mr. Phillips said that one would think a man would inform someone else even if he were too busy to take a human being out of the water. It seemed a clear case of suicide. He returned a verdict of "found drowned," there being no evidence to show how Gammie got into the river.

There is an Ebenezer Gammie who married Sarah Ann Ashton on London in 1888 and moved to Australia
England & Wales, Civil Registration Marriage Index, 1837-1915
Name: Ebenezer Gammie Registration Year: 1888 Registration Quarter: Apr-May-Jun Registration District: Paddington
Inferred County: London Volume: 1a Page: 121
Spouse: Sarah Ann Ashton

 
GAMMIE, Ebenezer (I4285)
 
19003 There is a 1970 death (see below) for a Euphemia Reith aged 96 which may or may not be the same person. The entry gives her age as 96 but given she was born in 1891 she would have been about 79. Without ordering the certificate it's impossible to establish anything further because she was umarried in 1932 and no marriage entry can be found.
REITH EUPHEMIA J, aged 96, year 1970, ref 685/5 1088, George Square

 
REITH, Euphemia McCourty (I8875)
 
19004 There is a claim that this John Silver was acquainted with the author Robert Louis Stevenson when he spent time in Braemar and, hence, the likely source of his Treasure Island character Long John Silver. Seems to be correct given that John Silver lived at Braemar and Stevenson visited there in 1881; before Treasure Island was published.
This report is worth reading too. http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/spl/aberdeen/yo-ho-ho-and-a-bottle-of-whisky-1.475306

 
SILVER, John (I4607)
 
19005 There is a death in 1875 of a John Woods aged 35 at Barrow and buried 1 Apr 1875. Given he and wife Mary were in London on 1871 census, that would mean they have returned to Barrow which is feasible.

 
WOODS, John (I6403)
 
19006 There is a George Nunn, widow, born 15 Dec 1866 at Conyers Green, Thingoe, Suffolk, England on 1939 register. Pure speculation that this is him.

 
NUNN, George (I8063)
 
19007 There is a Jul 1847 in North Witchford, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom for an Ann Jakes which is only 24 miles from Wereham, Norfolk, so perhaps the birth was registered in North Witchford

 
JAKES, Angelina Serina (I1453)
 
19008 There is a Mar 1866 marriage in Suffolk between a Hannah Osbourne and a Samuel NUNN

 
OSBORNE, Hannah (I6424)
 
19009 There is a marriage in the register of the parish of Chevington 1559-1812: 29 Jan 1788, John NUNN (possibly BK4728), bachelor, and Sara Prick (BK216), spinsters, both of this parish. Witnesses: John Prick, Thomas Nunn. (John Nunn 4728 had a younger brother named Thomas, so this marriage could be correct)

 
NUNN, John (I4728)
 
19010 There is a photo taken in 1906 in the book Chevington by Frank Cooper of the pupils of Chevington school. Assuming that Lilian attended school and was there on the day the picture was taken, she would have been one of the group.

 
NUNN, Lilian (I6553)
 
19011 There is a possibility that Emily had a base child herself. See the following entry.
Chevington OPR: No 262 20 Apr 1866 born 18 Feb 1866 Eliza dau of Emily Nunn of this parish.
I am yet to find any other record of this Eliza Nunn, so there is a possibility she died as an infant or was assumed into another family.

 
NUNN, Emily (I4913)
 
19012 There is a possible 1752 marriage at Great Berkhampstead, Hertford, England between Thomas Eldridge and Ann Cooper which may fit

 
ALDRIDGE, Thomas (I8017)
 
19013 There is a possible death in 1848 but age doesn't fit.
 
ANGEL, Jane (I7014)
 
19014 There is a possiblity that this Ann Nunn married/had a family with her older half-sister Mary's son Thomas Nunn. A Thomas Nunn and Ann Nunn certainly had children together and the record indicates that her maiden name was Nunn. Further research needed as have yet to confirm which Mary Nunn was Thomas's mother although the ages and locations fit.
 
NUNN, Ann (I4742)
 
19015 There is a public notice that appared in the Ipswich Journal on Saturday 5 October 1771 that refers to the dwelling in which this Holden Nunn lived.
The text is as follows:
To be sold by auction (by Henry Steward) On Wednesday the 9th day of October and the following day, at a house call'd Hawkwoods Sible-Heddingham, Essex.
All sorts of household furniture which will be expressed in catalogues to be deliver'd in due time.
The sale to being at Ten O'clock in the forenoon. To be viewed form 8 in the morning till the sale begins.
Likewise to be sold, a dwelling-house divided into two tenements, with a small barn, and two acres of exceeding good pasture-land adjoining, situated at Hargrave, within six miles of Bury, now in the tenure or occupation of Holden Nunn. For particulars enquire of Henry Steward at Bury.

 
NUNN, Holden (I4714)
 
19016 There is a Sep 1982 death in New York for an Ian Eaton born 1 Nov 1916 which could fit

 
EATON, Ian Duncan (I7983)
 
19017 There is a Susannah Lawson, aged 7, BK1868 on the 1841 census with the family who may be the base daughter of Susannah Lawson senior
 
LAWSON, Susannah (I1855)
 
19018 There is a William Coker , poulterer, on 1911 census in Balham born C1880 at Lambeth that fits him. Living with wife of 15 years Mary Ann and their children Ruby (13), Violet (9), Sidney (8), Ivy (2) and Edward (nine months).
 
COKER, William (I6561)
 
19019 There is an 1863 birth record for COOPER Eliza Mary Abbey Bath, mother's surname BANCROFT ref ABB/17/136 which suggests that either the birth was not registered in 1861 when she was on the census, or that this a different child. There is also an 1864 death ref for an Eliza COOPER.

 
COOPER, Elizabeth (I7012)
 
19020 There is an 1871 death in Suffolk of a Mary Woods aged 34 which fits. Given Mary and husband John were in London on 1871 census, that means they have had to return to Suffolk soon after the census was taken. A reasonable scenario.

 
NUNN, Mary (I3253)
 
19021 There is an Afred Sargent on the 1881 census born at Arprifth?? (should that be Hargrave?), Suffolk C1852 which may be this Alfred. If it is, he seems to have died before 1891 because son Alfred, aged 14, is a boarder at 20 Bush Green, Romford, Essex in house headed by Jonathan Avis born Rattlesden, Suffolk and wife Hannah. It seems this is his mum who has remarried.
By 1901, Alfred, aged 24 is at 395 Sherwood Rd, East Ham, Essex with wife Alice and his mother Hannah Avis

SLEAFORD, John (I2652)
 
19023 There is an online tree that gives his full name as Reginald James Russell and shows that he died in South Australia in an unknown year.
His sister Myrtle died in South Australia, so that information may be correct.

 
RUSSELL, James (I1637)
 
19024 There is IGI record for Sarah Nunn marriage to William Swan 10 November, 1789 at Dalham , Suffolk. It correct Sarah, she would have been 18 years old.

19031 This appears to be him in a report that appeared in the Western Times South West, England 13/05/1919
At Paignton Police Court on Friday, Albert Card, palmist on the Pier, was committed for trial to the Assizes, bail being refused, on a charge of attempted suicide.
Albert Card, a Paignton palmist, was committed for trial for attempted suicide* on May 7th. The man had been ill, and told Beach Inspector Braund that if he was not about on Thursday morning to tell Mrs. Card. On Thursday morning he was not about and three constables going to his office on the pier found him lying there unconscious. He had taken poison. In his diary was note. "Finish to-night"

On the 1921 census, Albert gives his age as 70 years and 10 months and describes himself as "married but no wife". This entry is scratched out and "widowed" is written above. He gives his occupaton as Chierosophist and Phrenologist, meaning that he subscribed to fortune telling and to be able to tell someone's personality traits by their skull shape.

*His wife back in Australia believed he had died by his own hand in 1921however, Albert Card continued to advertise his "business" in newspapers and appears to have died in 1940 in Southall. There is an advertisement for his services in The West Middlesex Gazette 16 Feb 1929 at 32 Shelley Crescent, Mount Pleasant, Southall. He is found there on the 1939 Register, aged 90. He states he is married but living apart. He is described as an old age pensioner, physically infirm. He gives his birth year as 1850 but the record that fits him shows he was born in fourth quarter 1851, which makes him 89 in 1939.


Western Times 12 June 1919, p. 2.
Albert Card, 67, a palmist, was indicted for attempted suicide at Paignton on May 7th. He pleaded guilty, and Mr Percival Clarke, who prosecuted, said Card was a married man, and practised palmistry in a room on Paignton Pier.
He had suffered from pneumonia, and in the afternoon of 7th May he was noticed by a Council inspector to be in a dejected condition.
He said to the Inspector, "I am bad, and if I am not about at 10.30 to-morrow morning will you go and tell my wife."
That afternoon he locked himself in his room, and took quite an ounce of chloral hydrate.
It was wonderful that he lived.
While the poison was working he wrote a pathetic letter to his wife.
He had since told the doctor that he would not make such an attempt again.
There was no doubt that the man had been very ill before the attempt, and there had been differences between him and his wife.
Mr J.E.Y.Radcliffe, for the accused, said it was quite true that the man had suffered serious illness, and he had not been living with his wife lately owing to differences.
He asked his Lordship to act upon an understanding which a Salvation Army captain had given to look after the man.
The officer was not now in Court, but had said he would attend.
His Lordship said one knew how loyal the Salvation Army officials were to their promises, and what strong efforts they made to do what they said they would do.
He would accept Captain Watkin's undertaking to befriend the man.
Accused promised his Lordship not do such a foolish thing again, and he was bound over in five pounds to come up for judgment if required in six months' time.

19036 This could be his baptism. Name Thomas Nun
Christening Date 09 Oct 1653 Christening Place BRADFIELD SAINT GEORGE,SUFFOLK,ENGLAND
Father's Name John Nun
"England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:J3JT-TM


When Thomas and Elizabeth married in Chevington, two other Nunns also married and were possibly related. Robert Nunne (BK1626 also probably born Bradfield St George to a Robert Nun) and Elizabeth Stewart married on 5 Aug 1680 and William Nunne (BK1628, best fit is a son of John Nun and Anne but born at Ixworth, so less likely to be connected) married Alice Herington on 24 Aug 1682 As well, on 7 Mar 1689, a Margarett Nunn (BK1630) married Samuel Barrow
 
NUNN, Thomas (I2695)
 
19037 This could be Phoebe's child: Ellen Nunn born to a Phoebe Nunn in Wickhambrook, Suffolk, 26 April 1841.

 
NUNN, Phoebe (I387)
 
19038 This headstone was erected by John Ferguson in memory of Sarah Nunn for many years his faithful housekeeper, a native of Chevington, in the County of Suffolk, who died at Peebles, 17th May, 1911, aged 82 years.
Also the above John Ferguson who died at Brier Bush, Peebles, 24th April 1913, aged 73 years.
And his wife Edith Aston, who died at Peebles, 26th September 1935, aged 61 years.

 
NUNN, Sarah (I4912)
 
19039 This is a John Nunn on the 1841 census at Hawstead, Suffolk, who may be this person. See
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M73S-KSG
That's based on the fact that it appears to be the same John Nunn at Hawstead on the 1851 census which shows him born at Chevington. So this fits this John Nunn. See https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGRV-DWF
However, he was first married in 1788 to Sarah Pryke (or Prick) who, according to one online tree died in 1818. On the assumption he remarried thereafter to an Elizabeth, it fits that he's the John Nunn at Hawstead.

19044 This is a transcript of a letter written by Elizabeth Todd from Chicago in 1939 in response to one from Eva Silver telling Elizabeth of her sister's death, that is Eva's mother. 13th Sept 1939 2172 Giddings Street, USA Chicago, Ill. My Dear Eva, Received your dear letter Monday this week with the sad news of your dear mother's death. She died on the 19th Aug, our father's birthday. How strange. But I never knew she had not been well all this year. She never complained till the last, poor dear. She must have been a great sufferer. Am glad you were all able to be with her, it sure would be a great comfort to her at the end. Yes, dear, it's your Dad that will miss her most, they sure have been a very happy couple for so long. God had spared them so long. So she wished to be cremated and she had her wish. I will always remember when I said goodbye to her at the station when she left for Australia. Little did we think we would not meet again on this earth. I feel so sad for you now but am glad dear you take is so well and you say it's God's will and we must bear it. I will try and write your dear Dad some day. Am glad he is bearing up so well. You will be back in your hospital by now and I expect plenty work to pass the time. Much sympathy pass your Uncle and cousins and love from us all ever, From old Aunty Lyzzie. PS Mother was about 2 years younger than me and every one thought she was the oldest. Mother used to call her "wee boobet", a pet name I dare say. She would not tell you it. Bye bye dear, God bless you My dear I have the picture with your Dad and her taken at the seaside; we're so proud of it. Ta Ta.

19046 This is her likely death certificate but there are a couple of questions/anomalies. If this is the same Elpset Silver, she was born in Jan 1821 which means she would have already turned 84. The other issue is her mother's name given as Elspet Jamieson M.S.Edward. However, the only Elspet Silver found in the records born in 1821 was to Adam Silver and Charlotte Jamieson.
1905 deaths in the district of Cookney in the county of Kincardine:
