Notizen zu dieser Person

NOTE: Alumni Oxoniensis says he was of Inner Temple in 1821.From Burke's Landed gentry, c.1895. No mention of a wife...In 1881 census he wasa 'Proprietor of land and other property.'and had a tutor for his son and 8 indoor servants includingbutler, footman and cook. I wonder how many outdoor servantsthere were?RCL P-L gave him a second daughter, Eliza, between Mary HodgsonG and Wm Arthur G, so she may have been marriedat the time ofthe 1881 census. But this dau is not on the 1861 censusso maymore probably have died an infant.__________________________________________________The 1861 census showed his household to be:Himself,a proprietor of land, houses shares and funds, born atSt Pancras MiddlesexHis wife ElizaA son and a daughterA stepson and a stepdaughter,His motherA butler,A nurseA nurserymaid,A cookA lady's maid,Two housemandsand a kitchen maid, 15 people in allIn houzes that were part of the farm,there were1. An agricultural labourer with his wife and daughter2. A carter with his wife and four sons plus a grandson___________________________________________In the 1871 census his house was called "Harefieldmansion" andhis household was:Himself a farmer of 167 acres with 12 men, 6 boys and 3 women,born in Surrey St Mary's Bermondsey (probably incorrect)His wifeA son daughter and a (younger) sonA butlerA footman,A lady's maidA cookTwo housemaidsA nursery maidand a Kitchen maid, thirteenin all.In adjoining farm properties there were:1. A couchman with hsiwife amd family of five,2. A farm bailiff with hsi wife and three children3. Another farm bailiff with his wife and two children4. An agricultural labourer with his wife and four children._______________________________________________________At marriage he was a bachelor (ie no previous [legit?] kids) andgentleman living at Trinity rectory (St MaryleBone?); his fatherwas Gabriel Gillett deceased; a witness at his weddingwas MariaAnn Gillett, almost certainly his mother. Also ElizabethGillett was a witness, not sure what relation of his she was,possibly the wife of his brother Gabriel Gillett. Anotherwitness was Henry Edwards who could have been a friend orrelation of anyone..._______________________________________________________

1 SOUR Book - Reginald Cecil Lybbe Powys-Lybbe - 1 PERI Powys-Lybbe genealogy -
These are the various documents he left behing summarising his -
researches. They included: -
(1) His master tree of all families married by our forebears. -
(2) His formal pedigree of the Powyses, in the style of Burke. -
(3) His two pages of trees of various descents from medieval -
royalty, including the Trotters back to the Scottish Stewarts. -
(4) His trees of the recent Trotter marriages. -
-
Remarkably most of this has proved to be confirmed by publicly -
available documents and some of it is a remarkable set of -
findings. One or two errors have appeared, mainly where he got -
the wrong wife as the ancestor. Perhaps only 20% of this -
remains to be checked, principally the families married into by -
the Trotters in the 18th and 19th centuries. -
-
However his besetting and frustrating fault is his almost -
invariable omission of sources and similarly of dates. -
-
I suspect he relied heavily on Burke's Extinct Peerage, judging -
by the heavily thumbed copy in APL's possession in 1999. But -
there is also evidence that went to various libraries and paid -
handsomely for primary documentary evidence of some 16th and -
17th century families. -
-
Nevertheless most of my work has been to extend and verify his -
enormous efforts. He really was a serious genealogist (like -
Martin but who follows the stricter regime of the last quarter -
of the 20th century) and I have considerable admiration for what -
he found out. Census - 1 TAXT UK Census - 1981 Book - Burke - 1 PERI Landed Gentry - 1 EDTN various Book - Foster - 1 PERI Alumni Oxonienses, pub 1882 - 1715-1886, p. 525 BMD Certificate - 1 DETA BMD Certificates for UK - Death Cert No 368 of 1886 of South Stoneham, Hants
