    Notes 
    • A Rebecca Boulstridge was found here this appears to be her family.
      At her marriage in 1883 to John Thomas Potter here father was quoted as Frederick Boulstridge.
      ********************************************************
      This rebecca consistantly says she was born in 1833
      The IGI shows a baptism at St Pancras of a Rebecca Bouldstridge Parents Frederick and Mary 24 JUL 1828 this has caused confusion in the past as it is before the marriage date. Note the St Pancras IGI finishes at 1832. If this is her family her Brother Edmund was born in the Workhouse at St Pancras. NB in 1828 Frederick Boul(d)stridge was convicted of Larceny at the Old Bailey and sentenced to 3 months. See his own notes for details.

      *************************************************************
      Pallot's Marriage index lists the following marriage
      1826 Rebekah Bouldstridge = Wm Lidgett at Holborn St Andrew
      In the 1861 census Rebecca's first husband James Bevan has a Rebecca Lidgett in his household listed as Mother-In-Law.
      ********************************************
      The 1841 census has
      1841 Census Elm Street, (Saint Andrew Holborn)
      William Lidgett 35 Y
      Rebecca Boulstridge 8 Y
      Mary Lidgett 55 N
      ***************************************
      1851 Census
      2 Hill Court, Hill Street, Holywell, Shoreditch; LND
      William Lidgett Head Mar 41 Iron Founders Trimmer b. St Andrews Holborn
      Rebecca Lidgett Wife 42 b. St Pancras
      James Bevan Head 25 Cordwainer b. St Lukes
      Rebecca Bevan Wife 18 b. Clerkenwell

      Ie the Rebeka Bouldstridge father Frederick (from marriage details) aged 8 in 1841was living with William Lidgett who married a Rebecca Bouldstridge in 1826.
      *****************************************
      From the 1861 Census (see Notes James Bevan) Rebecca Lidgett (Boulstridge) is listed as James Bevan's Mother-in-Law. This seems to suggest that Rebecca Bevan is Rebecca Lidget's Daughter.
