  • Notes 
    • Joseph Furmedge appears to have re-married prior to the death of his first wife. Divorce was difficult to obtain at this time and it is not unheard of for unhappily married couples to simply go their separate ways and start new relationships.

      Joseph is not resident with his first wife in any census year, presumably as he was away from home with the Royal Navy. In the 1861 England census he is enumerated as a crew member on the ship “Algerian” in Hong Kong Harbour (Class: RG9, Piece: 1647, Folio: 260, Page: 32). His first wife, Ann, is recorded as married in the 1871 England census (Class: RG10, Piece: 1128, Folio: 136, Page: 13) but a widow in the 1881 England census (Class: RG11, Piece: 1141, Folio: 74, Page 37), however no death or burial record could be located for Joseph in this time period.

      In the marriage record for his assumed second marriage he is recorded as a widower. His stated age of 44 years is a discrepancy as he would have been 54 years based on a birth year of 1818. The information for his father (name and occupation) however is consistent with that recorded for his first marriage.
      Joseph is enumerated with his new family in Liverpool in the 1881 and 1891 England census (Class: RG11, Piece: 3601, Folio: 116, Page: 43; Class: RG12, Piece: 2903, Folio: 87, Page: 37). In the 1881 census, Joseph’s surname appears as Fairmadge, he is 70 years old (b. 1811) and born in Liverpool, Lancashire. In the 1891 census, Joseph’s surname appears as Vermidge, he is 75 years old (b. 1816) and born in Portsmouth, Hampshire. There is a death and burial record for Joseph Furmidge, born in about 1818, and who died in Liverpool, Lancashire.
