He didn't marry Louisa Stevens, he married Mary Caroline Barnard, who may have been a widow. Have you looked at the 1911 census for him?

Merry
10-01-12, 15:32
Here is Mary's first marriage:

Marriages Jun 1899
Barnard George Bramley 9b 678
ENGLAND Mary Caroline Bramley 9b 678
Lister Laura Bramley 9b 678
Orriell John William Bramley 9b 678

In 1911 she says she has have one child with George Hairyes who has died, so this may be the one:

Births Mar 1911
Hairyes Annie Halifax 9a 414

Deaths Jun 1911
Hairyes Annie 0 Halifax 9a 323

unless that child is someone elses and the one mary had was stillborn and so not registered.


and here is a child she had after the census:

Births Mar 1914
HAIRYES Sidney England Bramley 9b 420

but that child can't be George Hairyes's as he had been dead too long.

So, the answer to your question is, No George doesn't seem to have had any surviving descendants.


With regard to his army service, his papers are on Ancestry, despite him being dead before WW1, so you can read them there.

Are you recording all this information on an online tree or on a family history program on your computer?

I appecaite help given,im witing everything down or printing it libary.my home pc has a virus and doesnt even play games i dont know how to put up a tree online computer iilerate,so I have my trust box file. i know im behind the times but dont what to do,thanks merry

Merry
10-01-12, 15:58
The problem is, if you only have your 'tree' on unconnected bits of paper it becomes impossible to cross reference the information you have already found, which may be vital to proving or disproving any other information you trace (especially with these Hairyes!!). It also means you end up going round and round the same data over and over again (and so do we!!! lol)

Do you need anything else about George?

I notice he lists two sisters as next of kin on the army papers (before he married, obviously) but I don't know who they are - looks like Annie Hairyes and Emily Brammer. Do you know who they are?

Merry
10-01-12, 16:41
In 1911 she says she has have one child with George Hairyes who has died, so this may be the one:

Births Mar 1911
Hairyes Annie Halifax 9a 414

Deaths Jun 1911
Hairyes Annie 0 Halifax 9a 323

unless that child is someone elses and the one mary had was stillborn and so not registered.



it turns out this child isn't Mary's, she is the dau of Mrs Ellen Hairyes aged 27 in 1911 (no husband with her in 1911) and this may be her:

Marriages Dec 1904
Finn Ellen Blackburn 8e 592
Hairyes James A W Blackburn 8e 592
Sharples John Blackburn 8e 592
Wolstenholme Elizabeth Blackburn 8e 592

Merry
10-01-12, 16:56
Please can you tell me when Annie (George's sister) was born as I don't have her written down anywhere.

I'm just looking for Emily.....

Hi its hannah hairyes was born 1868 is georges sister apoligies dont know an annie nut there isnt a sister in my files of georges called annie could annie be short for hannah? many thnaks

Merry
10-01-12, 17:06
This will need checking, but possibly Emily married James Brown

Marriages Dec 1882
BROWN James Bramley 9b 521
HOGG Emily Bramley 9b 521
STEPHENSON Gertrude Bramley 9b 521
Thrippleton Edward Bramley 9b 521

and later married G H Brammer

Marriages Mar 1888
BRAMMER George Henry Leeds 9b 518
BROWN Emily Leeds 9b 518
MOSS Fannie Lonesa C Leeds 9b 518
Parvin William Arthur Leeds 9b 518

in 1911 there is Emily Brammer b 1862 Harrogate and married 23 years with G H Brammer but that just leads me to the 1888 marriage.

I'm having my dinner now.

Hannah married in 1889, so I would need to check when the army form was filled in as there's only a tiny gap when Hannah was still a Hairyes and Emily was a Brammer!

In 1911 she says she has have one child with George Hairyes who has died, so this may be the one:

unless that child is someone elses and the one mary had was stillborn and so not registered.


It could also be that the child she mentions was by her previous husband - a lot of people didn't understand the question and counted all their children whether by the current marriage or not.

It does seem as though there are a lot of people on lots of sites all doing the same research.

I'd be a bit miffed about that.

I think she said the child was dead, so she may have understood the Q!! I'll have another look............

I don't think those other threads are about what happened to George, are they?

This is George in 1891:
2 Mill Fold, Beeston, Leeds
George Brammer Head M 31 Coal Miner Yorkshire Leeds Wortley
Emily Brammer Wife M 30 Cloth Weaver Yorkshire Harrogate
Lily Brown Daur 8 Scholar Yorkshire Leeds Wortley
George H Brammer Son 2 Yorkshire Worlesford (?)
George I Hairyes Boarder S 16 Coal Miner Yorkshire Leeds Wortley
John Herrington Boarder S 17 Coal Miner Yorkshire Bradford

Merry
10-01-12, 17:41
Mary answers the Q about the length of the marriage - one year. No other answers for her.

George also says one year. For children born alive he says 'none', but for children still living he says 'one' and for children who have died he says 'two'

My guess, and it's def a guess at the moment, is that 'none' refers to children of George and one living and two dec'd refers to children mary has had, presumably during her previous marrage.

The form was filled in in 1894 so it's unlikely that Annie is Hannah.

Thanks Kate. Maybe Annie is a sister-in-law?

Well George is easy isn't he?!!! All the records have his name transcribed correctly, so it was just a case of typing his name into Ancestry and telling you the results.

He is down as Hairges on the 1891 census but I've submitted a correction.

Merry
10-01-12, 18:46
Oh good.

I don't understand why Zoe couldn't find him after 1881? His death, army papers and 1911 census are all spelled correctly on Ancestry.

I was given a photo of one of my 2xg-grandfathers by another of his descendants who I found through researching my tree. I think that's the only time I have been given a photo of a direct line relative by someone quite distantly related though.

You need to have your tree online really for that to happen though and Zoe doesn't.

kiterunner
10-01-12, 19:03
Wow, that's great, Zoe. I would love to have some photos of my ancestors! I did get sent photos of one set of my 3xg-grandparents by a distant relative and my parents have given me some of 3 of my great-grandmothers and one great-grandfather, but I still don't have photos of the rest. I know that there was a picture of my 2xg-grandfather with his two daughters because he mentioned it in his will, and I'm forever hoping that one day it will turn up in someone's attic!

Of course not everyone even had their photo taken in those days and not all photos have survived anyway.

could anyone tell me who the father is for sidney hairyes. mary carolines son after georges deat.it doesnt have that far on the cenus records at the library. please help?

Merry
15-06-12, 11:20
Is that this child? (to save me finding out who Mary Caroline is!!)

Births Mar 1914
HAIRYES Sidney England Bramley 9b 420

Merry
15-06-12, 11:27
I don't think there can be a father's name on the birth certificate, unless Mary Caroline said that the father was her dec'd husband (ie if she lied, as her late husband had been dead too long to be the child's father)

Had she named a father, but was not married to him then there would be two entries in the index - one with surname Hairyes and mmn England and another with the father's surname and mmn England. The only entries showing for that page number are these (only one called Sidney and only one with mmn England):

Births Mar 1914
CARTER Leonard Norwood Bramley 9b 420
HAIRYES Sidney England Bramley 9b 420
Hiley Harry Trippit Bramley 9b 420
Newsome George E Smith Bramley 9b 420
Storr Charlotte A Ellis Bramley 9b 420

A baptism is unlikely to give a father's name for a mother who wasn't married at this date.

Your only remaining chance is if Sidney stated his true father on his marriage cert, but I guess it's likely he said George Hairyes, either because it was easier to say that, or because he didn't know that George wasn't his father.

kiterunner
15-06-12, 11:36
You could get Sidney's birth certificate anyway to see what address Mary was living at when he was born, then check the electoral register for that address to see if anyone is listed there, though of course that wouldn't mean that person was definitely Sidney's father, but it might give you a clue to start from.

Merry
15-06-12, 11:41
I'm not sure how you could prove anything once you had a name from the rolls for the birth address (if there was a name).

kiterunner
15-06-12, 12:11
You could look to see if he left a will leaving something to his "natural son"? Or look for his army papers and see if there was any mention of Sidney.

Merry
15-06-12, 12:21
True. Time to cross everything, I think!

In any case, the first step would be to get the birth cert for the address.
