Thomas ALDRIDGE

Notes:

No confirmed death date but there is a Thomas Aldridge buried first quarter 1838 at Hitchin, which is about 10 miles from his birthplace, Welwyn.

Less likely to be him is a legal reference in 1828:

Notes:

Known as Harry. Harry left part of his estate to his nephew Henry Aldridge who returned from Australia in 1883 and stayed for about three years before again going back to live Down Under. Questions as to why his daughter Mary Ann and grandson George Faithful (and was he his natural grandson?) did not seem to benefit. Nephew Henry Aldridge says in his memoirs that his Uncle Harry left him a third of his estate. Perhaps the answer is that Mary Ann was not his child based on fact of 1848 marriage and that she was born about 1845. The only baptism that fits is in Walkern in 1846 to a James and Sarah. Could it be that Henry's parents baptised this child as their own but she was, in fact, Henry's child born out of wedlock to Emily Tyler?

This may or may not be Harry Aldridge. Not enough information to say for sure.
Hertford Mercury and Reformer 23 October 1847, p4
WELWYN.-Charge of stealing from the person
Henry Aldridge, a stout young man of the agricultural class, was charged with stealing four shillings from the person of Robert Brown.
The prosecutor that, on Saturday, the 5th of June, he was at Welwyn with the prisoner, and some beer with him at a public house called the Chequers, from whence they proceeded to Woolmer green, where they laid down together for the purpose of taking some repose, shortly after midnight.
A short time after lying down he felt the prisoner's hand in his pocket, but said nothing because he was afraid of him.
Shortly afterwards they arose and walked on a little way together, when prisoner lagged behind, and prosecutor took an opportunity of examine his purse, from which he found that five shillings had been extracted, the purse being fastened up in a different manner to that in which it was when the prosecutor deposited in in his pocket.
On discovering his loss, Brown's courage-which had oozed out of his fingers' ends when he felt the hand of his companion in his pocket in the shed-returned, and he charged the prisoner with the robbery.
The offence was stoutly denied by Aldridge, and pertinaciously repeated by Brown, all the way to Stevenage, at which place the prosecutor waited on the inspector of police, Mr Good, who told him to come the next day.
The prisoner subsequently gave up 3s of the money to prosecutor to avoid "all bother" about the matter, bud did not admit that he robbed in.
In answer to questions from the Court, prosecutor stated that prisoner offered him two shillings at first, which he refused to take, and afterwards gave him 3s., which was handed over to the inspector; did not tell prisoner he would let him off on payment of the money, but said he should take it to the inspector.
The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, denied have robbed the prosecutor, and said that there were two or three other persons sleeping in the shed who might have taken it.
Inspector Good state that the prosecutor came to him as the inhabitants were going into church, and when the only magistrate (the Rector) was consequently engaged; and as the prosecutor gave a very confused account of the transaction, he thought he would not be justified in taking him, and told Brown to come on the next morning, and to bring any money the prisoner might give him in the meantime
The chairman said the inspector should not have taken upon himself to postpone the case.
Inspector Good said the prosecutor refused to give the man into custody, and he did not feel himself authorized by the statement to him in taking that responsibility on himself.
The jury return a verdict of not guilty.

• Occupation: Miner
• Emigration: Jul 1859, To Moreton Bay, Qld, Australia on the Glentanner
• Residence: 1916-1937, Robert St, Norseman, Western Australia, Australia

Notes:

After he remarried in 1888, he proves hard to track with certainty. According to his older half-brother Henry Aldridge, he moved to Western Australia and that is confirmed by electoral roll entries for a William Aldridge, miner, and Louisa Aldridge living in Robert St, Norseman (Dundas Shire). They are found at same address until 1937 and death entries can be found in WA thus:

ALDRIDGE LOUISA Female DUNDAS Ref: 3 1942

---

Birth:
As per both marriage certificates and on immigration record. Even though the family lived north of London in Herts, both William and James were born in London. Working premise is that Elizabeth went to be with her parents in London for the delivery. No baptism record for William but there is a Herts baptism for James.

Notes:

Other Events and Attributes:

• Census: 1851, Welwyn, Hertford, England, UK
• Census: 1861, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England, UK

Notes:

Given Henry Aldridge and Emily Tyler married in 1848, she may be Emily's base child but, equally, she may have been born out of wedlock to the couple as the records suggest. There is no baptism record found for Mary Ann Aldridge to Henry and Emily but there is one in 1846 in Walkern to a James and Sarah. Could it be that Henry's parents baptised the child as their own in a village a few miles from their own? See https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/ND7R-1LG
Even so, she is a puzzle to understand but some clues are found with children staying with her mother on 1871 census and 1881 census. On 1871 census there is a George Faithfull described as a grandson. George is still with his grandmother in 1881 and there is also a granddaughter Mary Ann Bishop. Working hypothesis is that Mary Ann had first child George and her first husband died. She then married and had children to Charles William Bishop from 1867 when Mary Ann Bishop was born/baptised at Welwyn. Seems to fit.

*Sheliah on original census entry. Name is commonly spelt Sheila.
#On 1901 census she is described as Daisy Aldridge, step daughter, aged 12, born Whitechapel, London, deaf and blind. Therefore, her stated aged of 27 years 8 months is misleading because she is found with her grandparents on 1891 census aged 2. On 1939 register, her date of birth is given as Aug 1890 but she appears to have been born in 1889.
With regard to the grandchildren in this household, they are either the offspring of one of James' son by his first marriage or the base children of Daisy Aldridge.

Notes:

He was known as Bert and had a reputation for not treating women well, according to several of his nieces, daughters of his brother Ted.
Family information suggests that Bert (sometimes spelt Burt) had relationships apart from his marriage to Margaret Shonhan.
In 1908, there is a Johannah Aldridge seemingly in the same household as Bert in Liontown, Charters Towers.
There is no recorded marriage for Bert other than the one with Margaret, so it is assumed his other relationships were common-law arrangements which are, of course, common these days but not so much 100 years past.
Bert is found with Margaret in 1930 and again in 1937, so it is assumed they separated before 1943.
In 1927, Margaret took over as licensee of the Royal Hotel, Bouldercombe, near Rockhampton; the previous licensee was her father-in-law Henry Aldridge.
By 1954, Bert is back at Kabra, near Rockhampton, with a Lily Aldridge in the same household. Her maiden name was Lily Morgan and they married in 1951 at Kabra Salvation Army Church. https://www.familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au/

Registration details: 1908/C/8516

Bert is buried with Lily. She died in January 1995.

Notes:

The following written by his son Cecil, describes Harry Westwood's life as a blacksmith carrying on the business that his father Jim had.
http://www.wheathampstead.net/history/JimWestwood.htm

Master Blacksmith (Harry Westwood)
by Jim (Cecil) Westwood (post 1950)

Jack of all trades - but master of iron - this was the village blacksmith of 50 years ago. Such a man was Harry Westwood of Wheathampstead.

From his blacksmith's shop at the rear of the Two Brewers Inn (now the village newsagents) he hammered out shoes for cart horses, tradesmen's horses, and the gentlrmen's riding hacks. He repaired the ploughs, made hinges for the farm gates, fitted iron tryres to cart wheels and solid rubber tryres to bicycles. He hand forged implements for the farmer, casement and widow fittings for the houses. He even releathered the beer engines for the pubs. In fact he would tackle any job in the village in wood or iron. He started at six o'clock in the morning and worked until 10 o'clock at night. After a busy day at Wheathampstead smithy he would walk four miles to Kimpton in the evening to work in the little forge there.

Harry's great love was wrought iron work, and at creating gates he was a master. Here the solid country craftsman became an artist in iron. Every part of his gates were hand forged - a virgin bar of iron was plunged into the red hot fire. Then on the anvil Harry hammered and sculptured his forging - With a strong arm, a quick eye and a soul, he wrought from the iron design and beauty.

Each forging was then passed to his son Alf for fitting by rivets to the frame and slowly the delicate tracery of the gates was created.

The Westwoods with their wrought iron work were forging strong links with the past as they worked together. They were carrying on a traditional craft which came to England from Venice in the 14th Centruy - an example of iron work of this period is the iron gate leading to the choir stalls in the Cathederal at St. Albans. The Westwoods in 1913 made all the wrought iron work for the Church of St. Peters at Gustard Wood, and due to a last minute decision to have wrought iron altar rails, Harry worked for a fortnight almost to the point of exhaustion, in order to complete the work in time.

They also made the gates at Shaw's Corner for Bernard Shaw. Alf is the proud possessor of two of Bernard Shaw's famous short pertinent post cards.

Further examples of their work are the Churchyard gates at Wheathampstead, the lovely gates at Red Gables, West Common, Harpenden and at Mr Waltons, Amwell Lane. Also Inn signs at the Plough and Harrow, Wheathampstead and the Harrow, Harpenden. Many homely pieces of domestic iron work like door knockers, bell pulls and foot scrapers can be seen everywhere in the village of Wheathampstead.

Harry won the Bronze Medal of the Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths for his work, but his greatest satisfaction was penned by Bernard Shaw in his brief post card which read "Job well done etc."

• Census: 1939, Wheat Hill, Wheathampstead, St Albans, Hertfordshire, England

Notes:

Some really confusing information in public record about Daisy Aldridge:
On 1891 census at 63 Gaulston St, Whitechapel, Daisy is with her grandparents Edward and Elizabeth Aldridge and her birth mother Sarah.
She is described thus: Daisy Aldridge, granddaughter, aged 2, born Whitechapel, London

---

On 1901 census she is described as Daisy Aldridge, step daughter, aged 12, born Whitechapel, London, deaf and blind.

---

On 1911 census, after her mother Sarah married James Wright she is described as Daisy ALDRIDGE, daughter, single, aged 21, born 1890 Whitechapel London Mid

---

On 1921 census, she is described as Daisy Wright Step-daughter Female aged 27 years 8 months London, London, England
Her stated aged of 27 years 8 months is misleading because of all previous entries that say she was born in 1890.

---

Then, on 1939 register, her date of birth is given as 5 Aug 1890 but, based on 1891 census, she appears to have been born about 1889. Based on death entry, this then is her birth record: Name: Daisy Aldridge
Registration Date: 1888 Quarter of the Year: Jul-Aug-Sep Registration Place: Whitechapel, London, England Volume: 1c Page: 311

---

The 1901 census also shows Daisy was deaf and blind.

---

Her death entry gives her date of birth as 5 Aug 1888.

---

Other online trees have children born to her which most likely those found in the same household on 1921 census.

Notes from Rockhampton City Council report regarding Roy and Eileen Coker:

Roy and Eileen Coker were both long-term residents of Rockhampton who resided in the Wandal area. Roy was born in Rockhampton on 5 May 1913 and died on 19 December 2004 aged 91. Eileen was born in Rockhampton on 26 January 1921 and died on 19 June 1999 aged 78. The couple were married in Rockhampton on 17 November 1938 and had five (5) children. Roy served in the 13 Battalion, Volunteer Defence Corps (Qld) during WW2.

In 1987, Roy and Eileen received National recognition for their community work with them both being awarded the Order of Australia, General Division for service to the community, as part of the Queen?s Birthday Honours List for that year.

This was followed by State recognition with them both receiving the Premier?s Award. Rockhampton City Council followed suit with the naming of Coker Hall, Coker Park and Coker Playground in their honour.

Coker Community Hall, Coker Park and the Coker Playground were situated on the southern riverbank between Sir Raymond Huish Drive and the Alexander Rail Bridge.

Coker Community Hall was demolished around 2007. Coker Park and the Coker Playground were subsequently demolished in late 2013 as part of redevelopment works at the World War II Memorial Pool complex.

This effectively removed the physical/visible community recognition that had earlier been extended to Roy and Eileen Coker.

In this instance where community recognition was given to Roy and Eileen Coker with some element of perpetuity attached to a community hall, a park and a playground, all of which were demolished, the opportunities to continue that association have been explored in order to convey that same recognition.

The creation of The Roy and Eileen Coker Walk in the nominated area, supported by the installation of appropriate interpretive signage, will revive the linkage of Roy and Eileen Coker to that area and restore the public recognition of their service to the community.
