CHAMBERLAINS in Westbury on Severn

Hi

Is this your Lily?

Births Mar 1922
Chamberlain Lily Chamberlain Westbury S. 6a 507

If so, then mothers maiden name is given as Chamberlain. So either both parents had the same surname, or Lily was possibly born prior to any marriage. So far I haven't found a marriage of a John Chamberlain to an Edith!

There are several other Chamberlain/Chamberlain births registered around that time in W-on-S. Do you know if Lily had any siblings?

Thank you for all the speedy repsonses and help, but i think the only way we are going to get to the bottom of all these CHAMBERLAINS is to get their birth certs order......I got Lily's father name from her marriage cert which was in 1947 but her father was deceased by then....again i havent found a death that rings any bells...........i also have a birth cert for lily but this is only the small one and so doesnt give enough info
Thank you again for all your help will update as soon as i get anything confirmed....

by grub68 @, Monday, October 22, 2012, 13:03 (4217 days ago) @ m p griffiths

the witnesess at the wedding were J WEAR and W ROBERTS
and at this point in 1947 Lily was living in Gloucester City. I have just ordered the full birth cert in the hope it lists mother and father, but with no further info apart John CHAMBERLAIN deceased at time of wedding.
Lily's small birth cert just states Girl born 15 Jan 1922 Westbury on severn East Dean, I suppose that could be any where lol
thanks again for repling

Update on this nightmare family CHAMBERLAIN's hahaha
My birth cert arrived for Lily CHAMBERLAIN and lists no father just upper bilson so ordered William John CHAMBERLAIN b 1908 also states no father but same mother as lily's and also got John CHAMBERLAIN birth cert and that also says no father just Edith CHAMBERLAIN again living in upper Bilson

So I have now found at least 3 different Edith CHAMBERLAIN born in the same areas all at around the right age for my ~Lily's mother, but with out fathers details or marriage details surely I have hit a brick wall ..........any advice would be great Thanks....PS I have also ordered the birth cert to Reggie Barnard CHAMBERLAIN to see if this gives any clues

CHAMBERLAIN/MEREDITH

by MPGriffiths @, Monday, February 03, 2014, 17:02 (3748 days ago) @ grub68

3 of her children were registered with the middle initial B i.e. [b]Reggie B - 1915[/b]/Ivy B - 1917/Sidney B - 1918

and John BARNARD is living with Edith (age 28 c1883) and her family 1911 census (also with Grandson, William John aged 2 - who is he? John BARNARD is aged 46.

? Fod Records - Burial at Drybrook - 24 April 1939

Ancestry: Probate to William George ROBERTS - Insurance Agent £185

Freebdm : O/N/D Qtr 1908 Westbury S - CHAMBERLAIN William John

and to re-cap

?? There is a death on For Records at Abenhall

31 August 1967 of Edith BARNARD of Plump Hill age 83 = c 1884

I suspect that this is Susan showing up in Oxfordshire in 1901 with daughter Rose Alice. Not sure she is married to James HANNAY... but if John BARNARD believes that he is still married it seems to fit !

Did you ever sort out the Edith Chamberlain with all the apparently illegitimate children ? I am interested in the John Chamberlain from 1913.

Hello there,
Have just stumbled on this post and realise that is an old one but maybe have some information of interest.
My dad is Martin Chamberlain, son of John Chamberlain born 1913(known as Jack)in Drybrook and has just had his family tree researched going back to 1773. His auntie was Lily Chamberlain (born 1922) of Drybrook,later living in Gloucester City. Dad was really surprised to find out about the Chamberlain/Barnard connection uncovered in his family tree.

Hi there, just noticed this forum post and I realise that it is quite old! Anyway, my dad (Martin Chamberlain) knows Lily Chamberlain as she was his auntie. Dad has been researching the family tree back to 1773 and has discovered a lot about the family. We used to visit auntie Lil when she lived in The Oval, Gloucester City.
Lil was my grandad Jack's (born John) sister x
