MISCELLANY - 'STRANGE' AND DERIVATIVES

A collection of offerings that have a variety of event, person or place.

1. Society of Genealogists - Document Collection
Much of this collection concerns wills and probate matters, extraction by Ed Hanson

2.   Subject: Chelsea, MDX, (etc) Links
From: Rita Robinson  my STRANGE'S are:-
WILLIAM STRANGE b. ? 5th april 1795 St. Luke's Chelsea. married February 2nd 1816 St. Botolphs, Bishopsgate, London, to JANE SILVERWOOD b. 1790, Petersburg. U.S.A. their children:-

THOMAS SILVERWOOD STRANGE b. 1819 Enfield, London.
GEORGE STRANGE b. 1820 Holborn, London.
WILLIAM HENRY STRANGE b. 1821 Enfield. London
MARY JANE STRANGE b. 1823 Broadway, Deptford, Kent. (my ancestor)
RALPH STRANGE. b. 1830 Newington, surrey
WILLIAM STRANGE b. 1831 London City, (might not be of the same family)
ALFRED MIDDLETON STRANGE b. 1833 Newington, Surrey.

I got this list from the LDS Library in Durban, so it may not all be correct. On Mary Jane's birth it mentions that William Strange was a Grocer by trade, and then in the trade directory I found that a William Strange was a Cheesemonger and had a couple of shops in Chelsea and Broadway. On the 1851 census we found that Jane Strange was widowed, and living on an annuity, and giving her birth place as Petersburg, but not which Petersburg, the address at which she was living was 52 Dorset St. the parish of St. Brides, London. she had living with her at the time, her daughter Jane (which I suppose is Mary Jane) and son William.

3.   Subject: A Luton, BDF, Stray
From: Shelley Hilton on 1 Feb 99
I have Emma HILTON, b. 20 Feb 1869 (d/o James and Ellen Hilton), Watford, Herts.  Emma married Harry STRANGE of Luton, Beds., son of George STRANGE, on 15 July 1890 at the Congregational Church, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I am assuming that Emma and Harry moved back to England because the family bible records her death as 4 Jan, 1948, Wickham, Herts.

10.  Audrey STRANGE's family

Mrs Audrey STRANGE, of Welling in Kent, advised Mrs SYMES in 1992 that there did not appear to be any connections with her husband's family (no details given but I understand her interests are in London, Nottinghill Gate and Wandsworth). 

11. Subject: Barbara Lawrence's London/SSX Family
Original from Mrs Barbara Lawrence to Betty Judge in 1995:
My own family connection is that my mother's grandmother was Fanny margaret STRANGE b 1858 (All STRANGE unless stated):
1. William Henry STRANGE (plasterer) b c1800, possibly London
2. John Christopher b 1828 MDX (painter) m Sarah BARBER 1854 May 31
3. William Henry b 1855 Jan 1Brighton SSX
Fanny Margaret b 1858 April 20 Brighton SSX
John Charles Brighton SSX

Barbara said that her sister (Mrs SYMES) noted the following and she says that the family mentioned must surely have something to do with Henry STRANGE and Margaret SHEPHERD:
Census Piece RG12 Folio 510
17 (or 11?) Grove Street, Deptford
George SHEPHERD H M Deptford
Julia SHEPHERD W M
Charlotte SHEPHERD D S Deptford

She also had a birth certificate that turned out not to be her folks:

"England in the 17th.Century 1603-1714 " by Maurice Ashley - 1660 - 1689
The Newspaper or rather the Newsletter had by now become well established.  It had become an accepted means of reporting events and spreading propaganda during the Civil War and afterwards. ROGER LeSTRANGE edited a semi-official weekly paper called " The Intelligencer".  Later this was superceded by "The London Gazette".


There are 22 London Strange policies in the records of the Sun Fire Office, 1710 - 1863. To consult the index go to Access to Archives website and choose "search A2A" Enter STRANGE in the first field that you see on the screen and choose "Guildhall Library" in the location of archives field on the same screen. Quite a few are for the same man - John Briscoe Strange - but still a good few names there.

16.   From the Reverend Francis Kilvert's Diary 1870-1879. Life in the English Countryside in Mid Victorian Times.

Thursday 6 August 1874 Staying at Britford. (note there is a Britford south of  Salisbury) "I received this evening a wild strange unhappy note from SUSAN STRANGE begging me to come and see her as soon as possible, She was worse and in some trouble of mind about herself. She was also troubled about her daughter FANNY who grieves her sadly, by frequently lying and stealing. I told her, She must correct the girl in time. "I do flog her" she said, "And the other morning she was a naughty girl and her brother JOSEPH brought her in to me in her shimmy while I was in bed. I held her hands while JOSEPH and CHARLIE whipped her on her naked bottom as hard as ever they were able to flog her". Sun 8 August 1874. I get a message from Peckingell that little FANNY STRANGE had suddenly been taken ill and wanted to see me. I went immediately. The child was in bed upstairs. I sat down by the bed and took her little hot hand, She seemed very feverish but was quite sensible and appeared to be much softened and humbled. If so, the chastisement she had undergone may have had a happy affect and have broken her self will and cured her of her faults. Her parents very wisely have not spared her nor the rod.

17.   From Berkshire Old and New.(abbreviated) - A Shocking Incident at Theale. From the Reading Mercury Monday 2 November 1835

"A few days ago a young woman, about 20 years of age, fell from the shafts of a loaded broad wheeled waggon, and one of the wheels having passed over her thigh crushed it in a most frightful manner. She was conveyed to an apartment at the CROWN, In Theale, where she now lies in agony notwithstanding her serious condition, the Surgeon entertains hopes of being able to preserve the limb."

A nurse was found to look after Mary and in the morning the Board of Guardians met and approved the payment of all expenses for this casual pauper. Their Doctor May issued a "medical order" that she be supplied with wine and ale; she also received some gin. The nurse received 5s., for sitting up with her for 10 nights. ELIZABETH STRANGE, the landlady of the Crown sent in her bills to the Guardians who paid up promptly and uncomplainingly.
22 Oct:  Oatmeal 4d , Mutton 8d, Flannel 10d, Bran 6d
23 Oct:  Mutton 8and half d

Mary unfortunately died, there was an inquest held at the CROWN.  The Guardians allowed £1 12s. 6d. for Mary's funeral.  They also paid the following bill to the landlady of the Crown ELIZABETH STRANGE as follows:
half a pound candles 2 3/4d 3pts beer, 6d half a pound sugar 3 1/2d, wine 3s 4d, half a pound butter 3 1/2d, bran for coffin 2s 0d, 1oz. tea 3 1/2d, washing, blankets etc 2s. 0d, 1 qtr. bread 2 3/4d, Gin 6d, for use of bed and room for 10days and nights 10s. 00d, for fires 10s 00d, for a room and fire for Coroner's inquest 5s.00d -TOTAL= £1 13s 7 1/2d.

21.   Ancestral File
Knowing what a pain it is to search through multiple pages on-line I thought you might like to have a copy of what is currently showing in Ancestral File under STRANGE, 1918 entries. (Need to do variants separately - unless there are any volunteers of course?).  It is a ZIP file of a document in RTF so should be usable by all.  You can search for a specific town, dates or whatever takes your fancy using your "Find" tool, rather than have the restrictions of the on-line search facility. Do bear in mind that the links don't work of course, you will have to go on-line to get the detail.

23.   DNA Study
From: David B. Strong Mon, 11 Nov 2002
Recently there has been an effort to initiate a DNA Study for the benefit of the many researchers and their families who have been unable to break through some of those "brickwalls" . So many of us are able to trace our lineages back several generations before coming up against a frustrating lack of records which tend to make "proof" impossible. Many of us have hunches and a lot of positive evidence pointing to lineage connections, but not enough to establish the links which make the connection. Now we have a new tool which may prove or disprove relationships, and aid us in persuing the most likely research which will prove the connection.... a DNA Study.  I have established a new webpage initiating the LeStrange-Strange-Strang-Stronge-Strong DNA Study. See:

24.   The Fallen
A Memorial to those lost serving the United Kingdom during WW1 and WW2

25.   A Royal Connection
Elizabeth 1 became critically ill with high fever on Oct 1562 at Hampton Court. She had suffered smallpox. She had no children and if she had died, there were 4 claimants to the throne, one was Lady Margaret Strange, first cousin to the Grey sisters who was thought much more suitable because her branch of the family had been unscathed by the "Northumberland" conspiracy.. Lady Margaret Strange married Henry Stanley heir to the earldom of Derby.

Note that the Grey sisters, Jane, Catherine and Mary, were daughters of Frances and Henry Grey. Frances bring the daughter of Henry V111's younger sister Mary and Chas., Duke of Suffolk.

Lady Jane Grey was executed 1554. Catherine secretly married Edward Seymour 1560 and sent to the Tower where she gave birth to a son.

Lady Mary Gray was a maid of honour at Court in 1565 married without Royal permission,far beneath her to Thomas Keyes the serjent porter. The couple were parted,never to meet again.

26   From the Law Society:
A George Frederick STRANGE qualified as a Solicitor in 1909. He was first listed in 1910 working in Reading. He then moved to Thorne in 1915. From 1930 -1951 he was in Manchester and Chapel-en-Le-Firth. 1951- 1955. He was listed in Buxton 1951 -1955 and finally in Malton 1956 - 1961.

32.  Bits and Pieces
From Patrick Strange <Strangeph@aol.com> Dec 2005
I was reading a book about the WWI aeroplane, the Sopwith Camel, and came across a reference to Lt Col Louis Arbon Strange, Dorsetshire Regt and the Royal Flying Corps. It was at his instigation that a two seat training version, of this reportedly very difficult to handle machine, was constructed.  


I am still trying to solve the riddle of Thomas Strange's (Tilehurst 1780) wife, Ann Jefferys. Apart from the reference to their marriage, I can find no detail of her at all.

Paul Jubbie <mrandmrs[at]jubbie66[dot]freeserve[dot]co[dot]uk>
My George JUBBIE/STRANGE never new his father, there are no living relatives who knew of his mother. We know he was raised at an Certified Industrial School in Clifton, Bristol. I have records of his committal and disposal from Clifton Certified Industrial School. There are only a few surviving records from this school as both the school and its records were destroyed in the Blitz of WW2. However the records we do have give his Date of Birth "by warrant" as 10.10.1893, unfortunately the court which imposed his committal to industrial school is not mentioned in any of the surviving records. I have searched the GRO indexes for all known variations of George Jubbie or George Strange around his given date of birth "by warrant" . I have four "George Strange" certificates of the period 1890-1895, but all are for the wrong person. (these may be of interest to your research)There were other George Strange entries in the time period but they either appear living with their families in the 1901 census, or had already died as infants, so they can therefore be ruled out. If I could find which court committed him, then this might come up trumps. However, a blanket search of all the surviving London Courts Records would take very extensive researching for which I just don't have time for and could not afford to employ private researcher to undertake such lengthy investigation. To our knowledge there was no will, he was only a coal miner. If there was it would of only named his children. Any help and advice you could share with me would be greatly appreciated.
