Charlotte
Butters
Birth:
1821 Hoe*, Norfolk
Death:

* pronounced 'Hoo' Recorded in The Doomsday Book as 'Hou'
The Isbell's
are living in Greengate, Swanton Morley for the 1851 Census, with
Mary, William and Emma. We can assume that the elder Emma had died
in infancy. (I will work on that one) By 1854, Charles'
birth date, the family had left Norfolk and were living in St. Pancras.
The 1861 Census finds the family living at: 19, Ferdinand Street,
St Pancras and John
is employed as a carpenter
In the Census
of 1881 Charlotte was widowed and lodging
with the Cuckson family at 18 Prince of Wales Cres., St. Pancras
Interesting
historical note:
Swanton
Morley was the home of Richard Lincoln, local
churchwarden (1599-1620) who built the mansion known today
as The Angel Free House. Lincoln was the wealthy grandfather
of Samuel Lincoln and Richard's seal can be seen today in
the east window of All Saints Church in Swanton Morley. Richard
Lincoln disinherited Samuel's father Edward from his will
in favour of his fourth wife, thus throwing the Lincoln family
into penury and forcing young Samuel to flee to Hingham, Massachusetts.
His great-great-great-great-grandson was Abraham Lincoln,
16th President of the United States of America. |
