Sadly Thomas died on 3rd. April 1896 (good Friday) in Greenwich Park, cause of death was "sudden and unknown". At the time of Thomas' death they were living at 50 Sun Street off Church Road (street) Deptford and he left a Daughter, Celia Lenty Loveridge. Post reply -->London Deptford 25 Aug ^ Deptford^ Deptford Deptford LoveridgeHi, Thank you for the reply, yes there is def a connection, yr grandfather Thomas would have been my GGM cousin. Do you happen to know any other family history? I would be so pleased to hear any more stories you have as this side of the family is so difficult to trace, they seem to change their names and ages all the time. Many Thanks Again.

 | ^ Deptford^ Deptford loveridgeHi Joc Tried to send more info but website wont accept I'll try again later brian Post reply -->London Deptford 26 Aug ^ Deptford LoveridgeHi Joc, Changed names and ages, tell me about it!!! Anyway can't tell you much more about the Loveridge side of the family. Sometime after Thomas' death his Widow Eliza nee Carrow remarried Michael O'Connor an Irishman son of Patrick O'Connor and they lived at 62 The Grange, Bermondsey. Eliza went on to have a further six children the last of which was my Mother. Eliza sadly died in 1920 when my Mum was only six years old. My Mother went to live with her Step Sister who was, of course Celia Lenty nee Loveridge, who by this time was married with three children of her own. Her married name was Chuchill and they lived in Ilderton Road, New Cross, just off the Old Kent Road. Celia Lenty ( named Lenty because she was born during lent) died about 1950. more to com.... Post reply -->London Deptford 26 Aug ^ Deptford loveridgehere's the rest... Of her three children Celia jnr, married and had one daughter, Mikey married and had one son but sadly was killed in action in WW11, he was a para in the Black Watch and Johnnie married and had one son Steven. I remember visiting my Mum's "Step Uncle" Mr. Loveridge (can't remember his first name) in Giffin Street, Deptford in 1948/9 and I'm sure there was a large very elaborate caravan parked alongside the house (or have I imagined that!). Sorry I can't help any more. regards brian Post reply -->London Deptford 26 Aug ^ Deptford LoveridgeBrian, Many thanks for the info, sadly no one seems to know much abt the father of Adolphus the name Elias /Elisha have been suggested and he lived in Griffin street by he died in 1915, his son William maybe was Uncle Mr Loveridge?? The Caravan maybe not be imagined as my GGM always told my mother that all her children were born under a caravan before they settled. Was that name def O'Connor? As by coincidence, a Micheal Connor father Patick of 45 bronze (another coincidence???)st married Emma Sibthorpe (My GGF who married Mary Loveridge, Sister) in 1894. They do say its a small world dont they? Its such a shame we do not have more info on this family as they seem a very interesting bunch! If anything else does spring to mind, pls let me know as I think it will be a small piece will make this jigsaw make sense. Regards Jo Post reply -->London Deptford Joc 26 Aug ^ Deptford LoveridgeHi Jo No the name was not def O'Connor, it started out as Connor but got changed along the way somehow! brian Post reply -->London Deptford 26 Aug ^ Deptford LoveridgeBrian, Hahahah now why doesn't that surprise me!! They did like to mix it up a bit as the fancy took them. It would seem that they moved in very small circles, so technically we are prob somehow relate !! lol I do wish they left an easier trail to follow though. Jo Post reply -->London Deptford Joc 26 Aug ^ Deptford LoveridgeHi Jo Just looking through various bits and pieces and it would seem:- Adolphus Loveridge born c 1813 had at least three children Polly, Jimbo (Jumbo) and Adolphus. Adolphus went on to marry Sophia and had Thomas born c1874 ish who was my Grandmother's (thats Eliza nee Carrow) first husband, and of course they went on to have Celia Lenty who was my Mum's half sister and who my Mum went to live with when Eliza my Mum's Mum died. How about that! brian Post reply -->London Deptford 26 Aug Deptford Holden HouseI lived in Holden House From 1949- 1964 went to tidemill school.

She later had the shop in Oscar St. This would have been from early 1900's to late 40's. Alice was my great grandmother and I'd love to know more about the shop and find a photo of it.

Butts Road or street, Caletock Street, Bellot Street, Bennet Street, or Mill Lane in deptford. I am trying to trace my families history and these are all addresses that keep popping up on the old census forms.

Hales ST is still there although obv it doesn't look the same. Lewisham Library have some good pics of that area & if you read Charles Booth's reports (avail on online) it gives you a really good insight into how they lived.
