|
| 1326 | I am not completely sure about this marriage. The 1911 census refers to the wife of Philip as being Kate. Furthermore, I have been unable to trace the birth of a Caroline Cross (that fits). It's therefore possible that Caroline could have been a widow. | Family F4460
|
| 1327 | I am unsure of the exact identity of Mary Ann. I can find no record of the marriage of Edward/Edwin to Mary or Mary Ann. Mary Ann Ballard is the only Mary Ann that I can find that was born in Ardington, Berkshire and fits the age of Edward's wife. | Family F4969

|
| 1333 | I have only found one record that may be a match for Thomas. One "T Stokes", who worked his passage to Sydney aboard the "Hawkesbury", arrived there on 6 Mar 1871. Into Place: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia | Stokes, Thomas James (I3268)
|
| 1334 | I'm not sure what became of John but he probably died, as his wife Fanny describes her condition as a 'widow' in subsequent censuses. | Haines, John (I16498)

| 1349 | In 1942 Liliane married her childhood sweetheart Elie de Rothschild, younger son of Baron Robert de Rothschild, a partner of de Rothschild Frères. The marriage took place by proxy, since Baron Elie was at the time a PoW at Colditz Castle, from where he had written to Liliane with his proposal. Liliane's mother (her father had by then died) was uneasy about her daughter taking the name Rothschild at a time when France was crawling with the Gestapo, but the marriage went ahead. Baron Elie gave his pledge at Colditz on October 7 1941; Liliane gave hers at Cannes Town Hall on April 7 1942, with a photograph of the groom on the table in front of her and an empty chair at her side. | Family F4437

|
| 1351 | In a book written by Guy Oddie called 'Inspired by Lutyens', the author has made a number of corrections in the preface. One such correction involves a footnote on page 67, which reads as follows:"Clive Edward Doré Wooster was part genius and part a puzzling innocent. He was puzzled to know why everyone called him Bertie, as his innocence had denied him any awareness of PG Wodehouse. So besides being a puzzle himself, he was a puzzle to everybody else. In A&B branch of what was then the Ministry of Education, he was respected for his innovative rationalisation of school kitchen designs: respected but not befriended - always a loner. Yet, when in search of higher pay, he and I both left A&B to join Meyrick at the UGC, my respect for him was still not matched by friendship. Then, when we each tried to join Donald Gibson in the Office of Works, only one of us was allowed to leave Meyrick, so Donald opted for Bertie, who went off with a bee in his bonnet and made an idiotic ass of himself. Disdaining acquaintance with the turf, he never realised the existence of his illustrious namesake, the bookies' odds of 13 to 30, aka, Burlington Bertie." | Wooster, Clive Edward Doré F.R.I.B.A., M.B.I.M. (I26673)

|
| 1359 | In the "Index to Death Duty Registers 1796-1903", The executor of Robert's will is named as EA Elliott.
