Person: Elizabeth Kempson (1873 - 1961)
|
This week, WeRelate looks at the Person Page of Elizabeth Kempson, born on 10 October 1873 in Luton, Bedfordshire, England, daughter of James Kempson and his wife Sarah Ann Smith. The family's surname was occasionally given as Kempster rather than Kempson, with Elizabeth's birth certificate being one such instance. Elizabeth was one of 12 children, although by the time of the 1911 census her mother Sarah reported that five of the twelve children had died. Elizabeth married John Marshall on 25th March 1894 at St Mary's in Luton, aged 20. At the time of their marriage she was living on Essex Street. John lived nearby on Albert Road. After their marriage they moved around a bit to begin with, living at 25 Cowper Street in 1899 and 33 Albert Road in 1901, but by 1903 had settled at 44 Cambridge Street, which was to be Elizabeth's home for almost the rest of her life.[7] The family stayed at 44 Cambridge Street, appearing there in the 1911 census, when they were described as occupying five rooms. Elizabeth's parents were living just across the road on census night at 39 Cambridge Street. John and Elizabeth had five children together. This Person Page, added by User:RichardK, is an example of a well-documented and well-sourced Person Page that you can add to WeRelate! (learn more...) |
