Edward Birkett 1820- 1871

Hatter , but later seemingly labourer & hawker . Born St Lukes Middlesex, lived Newington

Above likely irrelevant!

Have a James Birkett ,39, burial record 1/4/1832- thus born ~1793 - at St George the Martyr -Ancestry- this possibly Edward'sfather !!

2 Ancestry trees but large and know nothing about him or his wife

1820.~ Seemingly no baptism on London Ancestry baptisms 1813 onwards. Edward Birkett born to James Birkett , hatter &

1841C.

1844. Edward Birkett, hatter, married Amelia Rogers in St Mary's Lambeth on 16/2/1844 - Ancestry London Marriages. Also Ancestry Banns 7/1/1844- for a feb marriage. Lambeth Mar 1844. His father James Birkett, hatter, deceased: hers William Rogers, butcher, deceased. Address Oval. No death of a James Birkett around London 1837-1844

1851C. Paragon Row , St Mary Newington, Newington . Edward Birkett, 31, a Hatter

Edward	Birkett	Head	Married	Male	31	1820	Hatter	St Luke's, Middlesex, England
Amelia	Birkett	Wife	Married	Female	30	1821	-	Kennington, Surrey, England
Edward	Birkett	Son	-	Male	6	1845	-	Christchurch, Surrey, England
James	Birkett	Son	-	Male	4	1847	-	Southwark, Surrey, England
Elizabeth	Birkett	Daughter	-	Female	2	1849	-	Newington, Surrey, England
John	Birkett	Son	-	Male	0	1851	-	Walworth, Surrey, England

Edward & Amelia had the following children: Edward Birkett 1845; James Birkett 1847; Elizabeth Birkett 1849; John Birkett 1851 & Charlotte Ann Birkett 1853

1853. Charlotte Ann Birkett was born Newington Jun 1853. No baptism on Ancestry London Baptisms, nor for her 4 siblings

1861C. 3 Eltham Street, St Mary Newington, Newington . Edward Birkett, 41, a Labourer-odd!!, but maybe not, as he is said to be a hawker by 1871

Edward	Berkett	Head	Married	Male	41	1820	Labourer	Stepney, Middlesex, England
Amelia	Berkett	Wife	Married	Female	40	1821	None	Lambeth, Surrey, England
James	Berkett	Son	-	Male	15	1846	Errand Boy...	-
Charlotte	Berkett	Daughter	-	Female	8	1853	Scholar	Newington, Surrey, England

So, Edward & Amelia seemingly had at least 5 children: Edward 1845, James 1847, Elizabeth 1849, John 1850 & Charlotte Ann 1853.

From this I thought it likely his mother was called Elizabeth - but now feel she was Jane

1871C. 3 Eltham Street, St Mary Newington, Newington . Edward Birkett, 51, a Hawker!, born Lambeth, as is his wife

Edward	Birkett	Head	-	Male	51	1820	-	Surrey, England
Amelia	Birkett	Wife	-	Female	51	1820	-	Surrey, England

1871. Only possible death 1871-1891 is St Saviour Dec 1871, but aged 61- seemingly impossible - but FS tree has him dying 4/12/1871 Walworth - not on FMP

& no possible death for Amelia

Almost certainly Irrelevant

~1822-1826?? I originally thought Edward Birkett born to Daniel Birkett & Elizabeth in Middlesex . Daniel, 72, corn factor, still alive 1851C. Wife Elizabeth Wrangham. They married 11/3/1806 Auckland St Andrew Durham- FS. Daniel Birkett dies Hackney Dec 1859 - no burial on FMP- probate of ~£10000, son Daniel a corn merchant, another son a wine merchant

1841C. Could not find him on Ancestry nor on FMP . But on FS Clapton Road Hackney , aged 15- younger than I was searching for! so
