Noted events in her life were:
• death: 1809. Death assumed as only Edward we
know married again in 1809

Edward William (Lancashire) Lankshear (L1805)
was born in 1805 in Chelsea and was christened on 24 Jun 1807 in Saint Luke,
Chelsea, London, England.
Noted events in his life were:
• Source. Edward born in 1801 as per IGI as Lancashire and appears to be same man as married Frances in 1831 as Lankshear
• Census: 1861. 1861 census Edward W Lankshear

Edward married Frances Clare , daughter of James Clare and Mary Hitchen , on 4 Jul 1831 in Saint Martin In The Fields, Westminster, London, England. They had seven children: Ann Elizabeth, Edward P, James Clare, John, Robert, Charles , and Lucy .
Noted events in her life were:
• death. Frances Lankshear Jun -1872 Southwark GRO 1d-112
Ann Elizabeth Lankshear was born on 24 Jul
1834, was christened on 17 Aug 1834 in Saint Luke, Chelsea, London, England, and
died on 19 Jun 1835.
Noted events in her life were:

Edward P Lankshear was born in 1835 in
Kensington - Many Assumptions and died before 1881, before age 47.
Noted events in his life were:
• Census: 1871. Edward P Lankshear -35 (1835)
Market Porter born Kensington Middx
4 Little Paris Street Lambeth
Only reference so far to Edward is this census - as he used a second initial I
am inclined to link him with this family especially as they married 1831 and
only children we had were born in 1840s and these came from 1861 census. of
course all is supposition
Mary is a widow by 1881
No death for Edward found or Marriage
Edward married Mary Lankshear (Nee Unknown) in 1860 in Kensington.
Noted events in their marriage were:
• marriage. Only reference so far to Edward is
this census - as he used a second initial I am inclined to link him with Edward
William family especially as EW and Frances married 1831 and only chiIdren we
had were born in 1840s and these came from 1861 census. of course all is
supposition
So I will guess a marriage in 1860 when Edward was 25 and Mary 22 as if child of
E.W. he was not at home in 1861 Sorry about suppositions but I think these are
reasonable assumptions and it does mean we have numbers on board and it will
help further investigation
Noted events in her life were:
• Census: 1871. address: 4 Little Paris Street
Lambeth which as right next door to the Lambeth Palace and is now buried under
the park there.
Edward P Lankshear -35 (1835) Market Porter born Kensington Middx
Mary - 33 (1837) born hard to read but could be Norfolk - Sporle (had to check
on my English maps for this)
Ann Seymour Mother Widow age 40 or 46 (1824-1831) Mantle maker Wilts Tidbury?
Mary A daug 14 (1856/7) also Mantle maker from Middx Blackfriars? (see below)
Did you notice that the name Ann Seymour had mother beside it which usually
means it is the mother of the head of the household but if the Wife was 33
and the mother's age is 46 (that's what it looks like) then it must refer to the
daughter following (Mary A) who was only 14 and be a separate family.
(Ron thinks looks like a separate household within No 4 )
