HOLLAND familyI am seeking information on the ancestors of Joseph Richard Holland.
Joseph was born 3 Dec 1808 in Lambeth. His father was John Holland, b. 23 Nov 1760, in St. Giles, Camberwell. I believe his mother was Ann, possibly Harris.
Joseph Richard Holland married Sarah Prudence Twopenny, ca. 1832. I have census records for Joseph and Sarah from 1841 forward and one indicates that Sarah was born in Dover, Kent abt 1815.Joseph last appears in the 1891 census living with his granddaughter Kate Greenfield and family in Camberwell, but I am having trouble finding his death registration.
The closest match on www.1837online.com is the quarter ending Mar 1891, age 83, Oldham 8d 517, but that does not fit with him showing alive at census time in Mar 1891 in Camberwell.
There are Twopenny's (various spellings) that appear on Lambeth censuses, but I cannot link them positively to Sarah Prudence. I have Sarah's death registration which occurred 29 Jan 1858 in Lambeth.Is anyone researching this family, or could anyone help with any of the data that I'm missing? I have the BMD for Sarah and Joseph's children.
