Maternal grandmother: Louisa Elizabeth Williams (born 1853 Northamptonshire died 1935 Bedford)  

married 1875 Northampton

Maternal grandfather: William Hales (born 1850 Odell, Bedfordshire died 1893 Bedford)

married 1873 St Geo Han Sq

Paternal grandfather: Thomas William Roberts (born 28.1.1842 All Saints, Worcestershire died 28.3.1917 Stoke Newington)   View NotesHide notes  

Was still a baker in 1874 at Christening of Elizabeth and living at 37 Eagle St. In 1875 they were living at 55 Theobolds Road according to Christening record of Thomas William 1875. Could not find other records, but they moved about a bit it seems.

Listed in 1906 Kellys directory as furniture dealer at 224 Hornsey Road.

 

Mother: Martha Hannah Hales (born 3 Mar 1878 Yorks Sheffield died 21 Oct 1957 Islington)   View NotesHide notes  

Record of approx birth on IGI - which is presumably derived from census returns. 1939 Register confirms actual date of birth.

married 22 Jun 1901 Islington, London

Father John Gough Roberts (born 21 Jun 1878 Walworth, London died 27 Jun 1957 Islington)   View NotesHide notes  

Birth registered at St Saviour, Southwark, July 1878

Married 22nd June 1901 (see attached image) at Camden Road Baptist Church. "The bride was neatly attired, and was given away by her eldest brother Mr W J Hales. The four bridesmaids were Miss E R Hales... and three Misses Roberts... Mr G Perry was best man". 

Living at 63 Roman Road in 1906 according to Christening record for son John.

Listed at 361 Caledonian Road in 1916 and 1929 as a furniture dealer according to the Post Office Directory. Also on electoral register at same address in 1931.

Buried 1st July 1960 in Islington Cemetery according to deceasedonline - but this conflicts with my date of death above, so wonder if the year is incorrect. There is one other John Gough Roberts, born in Wrexham district in 1897 - so perhaps this is him but it seems unlikely as Islington was our John’s haunt.


Brother: Albert George Roberts (born 14.8.1902 Islington died 3.4.1952 St Albans) 4 children

Husband: William Turp (born 1909 ? prob. Edmonton )  

Son: William John Turp (born 1936 Islington )  

Daughter: Mary B Turp (born 1938 Islington )   View NotesHide notes  

Probably married John A C Bryant in 1967 Islington. Marriage was to a Mary E Turp, but I could find no record of a Mary E Turp birth. Perhaps the middle name is Betty/Elizabeth or it was a typo. No record of any children.

Daughter: Beryl E Turp (born 1942 Islington )  

Son: David G Turp (born 1947 Islington )  

Son: Paul R Turp (born 1948 Islington )  

Sister: Dorothy Edith Roberts (born 8.6.1915 Islington died 17.3.1993 Islington)   View NotesHide notes 1 children  

Was living at 32 Roman Way, Islington N7 at time of death in 1993 - see attached probate record

Daughter: Anne Roberts (born 1945 Islington, Middlesex ??? )   View NotesHide notes  

Birth is very approximate. Dorothy is known to have had daughter Ann out of wedlock. It is also possible she was born in 1933 and given surname of Dorbin (in terms that it was the only matching record I could find for Islington - lot of a long-shot).


Husband: George Wilkinson (born 1911 ) married 1936 Bedford  

Mary Grace Roberts Notes: Possibly had daughter Barbara J Wilkinson in 1944 Bedford
