Birth | Elizabeth Fernee was born in 1894.1 |
Baptism | She was baptized on 23 Sep 1897 in St Mark Hanwell, Middlesex. She was the daughter of Edwin Fernee of 7 Dover House, Russell Place, Old Kent Road. Her siblings Edwin and Melinda were baptised the same day. The clerk missed a lot of information in the entries, such as Elizabeth's mother's name and her father's occupation.1 |
1901 Census | Siblings Edwin (12), Melinda (9), and Elizabeth (6) Fernée were workhouse children in the 1901 census. No personal information was on the census form other than name and age. In the enumerator's words, "It is absolutely impossible to give this information as the children have not any clear idea where they were born." They were in the Brentford Workhouse and you can read more about it and see pictures at this excellent site.2 |
