Sidney John Bishop c1882. Married Eliza Goodyear and had 12 children, 4 of which died in infancy. The remaining 8 are Lesley (1900-1987) Florence, aka Flo (1909-1986). John Henry, aka Jack (1910-1973) and John is my father. Edna (1911-1987). Francis, aka Frank (1914-1999). Sidney (1915-unknown). Ruth (1923-1992) and Ronald (1931 and alive and well in hampshire). If you are related to any of my Uncles and Aunts and have information regarding them or any of their off spring and of my Grand (and further back) parents I would love to hear from you. The family at the time of my dads birth (1910) were based around Stammford Hill, London kind of area and they moved to back to the Fulham area in 1910..

All the best and thanks for looking and for any future help you can give, Steve.

Hello Steve


sorry no personal connection

this is your grandparents marriage but Elizas surname is different which is confirmed on the two births listed below


Marriages Sep quarter 1903

Bishop Sidney John Fulham 1a 557
GOODGER Eliza Fulham 1a 557




Births Mar quarter 1912
Bishop Edna M mmn Goodger Fulham 1a 476


Births Jun quarter 1914
BISHOP Frank G mmn Goodger Fulham 1a 503


may be best to get a copy of the marriage to confirm both the fathers names of Eliza and Sidney

I think this may be Sidney in 1901 with his parents but as said would need to confirm this

have based it on area born matching a birth of a Sidney John in Paddington and the family are then in Fulham in 1901
