• Notes

  Walter Furmidge’s birth date precedes his parents’ marriage date by several months. Both his birth certificate and parish baptism record confirm him as the son of John Furmidge (spelt Furmage in the baptism register) and Mary Ann (or Marianne) Summers. His birth certificate indicates that John and Mary Ann were not married since Mary Ann’s surname is recorded as Summers rather than ‘Furmidge (formerly Summers)’. For his death registration and entry in the parish burial register however his name has been recorded as Walter Summers (or Summer). His death certificate confirms that he was the son of Mary Ann Summers and died aged 5 weeks (which is consistent with a birth date in July 1841).
