MOGUL family
published by Pat Hase - 7 years 10 months 8 days ago.

I notice that in the new transcriptions of burials of the Milton Road Cemetery available for full members on this site that John & Mary MOGUL are both buried there.  

There is the birth of a Jane MOGUL registered in the Axbridge District in 1878 - is that the child you mentioned or did the earlier one die?  (she's not in the cemetery)


laura buildings

Hi. I have recently been looking at the censuses for my Lawrence family. Unfortunately I am not familiar with the WSM area. In 1841 they were in Bazaar Bs (Buildings?) but I cannot find any other reference to this address. In 1861 they were in Back Regent Street which presumably was near, adjacent to, the same as Laura Buildings? In the later 1860s there is a newspaper report of a constable following up a complaint in the area of someone keeping pigs. My family were all butchers, so although there is no name mentioned, it may have been them.

 


Thank you

Hi Pat Thank you very much Pat for the advice and information. I've got a synopsis of the Article in the Weston Mercury about her death. I was sure that this was a newsworthy item and it is good to know that you can find this on the internet. The whole thing was very sad, but totally unknown to my family. The article you reproduce above is quite sad, she had just had her second child with John Mogul, that was Jane Mogul, in February 1876 and her position would have been very difficult. The

War Memorial Grove Park

I don't have a full list of the names on the Grove Park Memorial for WW2 - (Does anyone else?) but looking at the CWGC site I can see that Doris is remembered by Weston but not her husband.  I see that he was buried in Birmingham - presumably he was included on a Memorial there.  


Mary MOGUL - suicide
published by Pat Hase - 7 years 10 months 9 days ago.

The Weston Mercury of Saturday 31 March 1888 carries a very detailed account of this event and her inquest.  It can be seen online at FindmyPast or the British Newspaper Archives or on film at Weston-super-Mare Library.

There is also a previous article in the Weston Mercury of Saturday 12 August 1876 which may be about the same person

 Mary Ann Mogul, of Exeter, was charged with acting as a pedlar without having certificate at Weston-super-Mare, on the 7th instant.—A.S. Hanuam proved having seen the prisoner offering toys on the sands on the previous day for sale, and upon demanding her certificate, found she had not one.—Prisoner said she was working her way to to Exeter to join her husband, and the articles she offered were the remnants of her little shop. —Discharged.

Hi Bridget I'm also new to this, just registered today. This is a wonderful website. I don't have an Anne Hodges in my tree, however my tree is published on Ancestry.co.uk. You can have a look at it there or email me details of what you have for your Hodges line and we can see if we have a match. Kind regards
