Flag of Worcestershire (adopted 2013)
Henry Goatley was born in Pershore, Worcestershire, England.

Birth

Henry was born in about April 1850 in Pershore, Worcestershire, England. He was 9 months old on the 30 March 1851 (the date of the 1851 census). [1]

Early Years

On the night of the 30 March 1851, Henry lived with his parents, William and Elizabeth, and his siblings, Celia, Thomas and William, in Charles St, Saint Paul, Blockhouse, Worcestershire, England. Henry was born in Worcester. William was 34 and brush making. Elizabeth was a dress maker. Judging by the birthplace of the three oldest children, the family had moved to Pershore from Walworth, Surrey, England. [1] The entry in the census was as follows:

Schedule 10; Charles Street, Blockhouse, Saint Paul, Worcester.

When Henry was two years old, he and his brothers, Thomas, William and Edward were admitted to the Central London District School, Westow Hill, Upper Norwood, Surrey, England. The date of admittance was the 30 April 1853 and they were discharged on the 5 May 1853. The chargeable union was West London and the chargeable parish was Saint Andrew's. Their parents were at the Workhouse. [2] The entries were as follows:

West London was one the unions belonging to the Central London School District. At the time the Central London School was in the former school of Saint Aubin's, Norwood, Surrey, England. [3]

School

In 1861, Henry, 9, was in the Central London District School at Hanwell, Middlesex, England, as a scholar with his brothers, Thomas, 10, and Edward, 8. [4] The school had moved to Hanwell in 1856 [3].

Working Life

On the night of the 2 April 1871, Henry was visiting his brother, Thomas. Henry was 20, and a colour grinder born in Worcester, Worcestershire. Thomas, 23, was a boot closer living at No. 3 Hill Street, Saint George the Martyr, Southwark, Surrey, England. He was head of the household and married. His wife, Mary Ann VINDON, was not at home. Thomas was born in Saint Andrew's, Middlesex, England. [5]

Marriage

Henry married Jane HARDY on the 2 August 1874 in All Saints Church, Newington, Surrey, England. The couple were single and lived at 5 King, Street, Newington. Henry was 24 and he and his father-in-law, Thomas HARDY were carmen. Henry's father, William was a brush maker. Jane was 22. The witnesses were Thomas GOATLEY and Alice STAPLES. Alice made her mark and the others signed their names. [6] Thomas GOATLEY was very likely Henry's brother. Alice was Jane's future sister-in-law. She married Jane's brother, William HARDY, in the same church in 1876.

Henry was born in Worcester. He was 30 and a wholesale druggist's counterman. Jane was 29 and born in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, England. [7] The entry in the census was as follows:

#Daniel George Goatley on the 22 November 1893.
#Minnie Goatley born in about November 1895.
#Rose Maud Goatley born on the 18 September 1897.


Sadly, Minnie died in 1896.

Hard Times

On Wednesday the 8 October 1902 at 12 o'clock, Henry was admitted to Greenwich Union Workhouse on the Woolwich Road in Kent [10]. He was recorded as being 52 years old. He was with his 7 year old son Daniel (who was 9 according to his birth record), and his daughters Cecilia, 10 and Rose, 4. They were admitted because Henry, a labourer, had no home. Their religion was Church of England and their parish was 'P'. They were seeking relief because they had been removed from Saint Olaves. The family were discharged on the same day. In Henry's case he was discharged at 8 o'clock by Alfred Ayling, 64, to the parish of 'P'.[11] The entries were as follows:
{| border="1"

!Date!!Day of the Week!!Time of Admission!!By whose Order Admitted!!Date of Order of Admission |- |1902 October 8 ||Wednesday ||12.0||Master ||1902 Oct 8th |}

E ||4||P ||Remd. from St Olaves ||Oct 8th||Wednesday ||9.0 ||Whimster Annie ||61 ||P |}

'P' was probably Poplar because this parish was part of Greenwich Union, but could also be Saint Paul, Deptford, because the family did live there.


The next day, Thursday 9 October 1902, Henry was admitted to the Greenwich Hospital and Infirmary at Vanburgh Hill S.E.10, Greenwich. He was a labourer. His first meal was breakfast suitable for a male under 60. His parish was Saint Paul. [12] He was discharged on the 4 November 1902 'To House' at his own request, together with his son Henry who was 28. [13]

Last Years

Henry passed away on the 13 January 1930 at 390, High Street, Catford, Lewisham, County of London, England. He lived at 6, Albacore Crescent, Lewisham and he was a retired counterman at a wholesale chemists. His age was 77 years. The cause of death was carcinoma (or cancer) of the colon. T GOATLEY of 58, Sprules Road, Brockley, informed the registrar of the event. The death was registered on the 13 January 1930.[14]
