Biography

Frederick Punchard was born in Sussex, England.

Frederick Punchard was born in 1870 in Brighton, Sussex, England to Alfred Punchard and Eliza (Parsons) Punchard. His birth was registered in Brighton in the second quarter of the year, with mother's maiden name Parsons.^[1]

In 1871 Frederick Punchard (age 0) lived in Brighton, Sussex with his father Alfred (26, Flyman), mother Eliza (29), and three brothers: George (5, Scholar), Alfred (4, Scholar), and William (2).^[2]

Frederick's mother Eliza Punchard passed away in 1874, and his father married Sarah Ann Newton in 1876.

In 1881 Frederick Punchard (age 10, Scholar) lived at Nelson St in Brighton with his father Alfred (37, Fly Driver), stepmother Sarah (36), and seven siblings: Alfred (14, Scholar), Charles [formerly Newton] (13, Scholar), Alice (9, Scholar), Harry (7, Scholar), Lousia (3, Scholar), Florie (2), and Anna (0), as well as lodger Catherine E Brigland (33, Servant Domestic Out of Employ).^[3]

In 1891 Frederick Punchard (age 22, Cab Driver) lived at Spring Gardens in Brighton with his father Alfred (48, Cab Proprieter), stepmother Sarah (46), and seven siblings: Charles (25, Cab Driver), Louisa (15, Help House Duty), Harry (14, Scholar), Florry (12, Scholar), Bertie (10, Scholar), Annie (8, Scholar), and Jessie (6, Scholar).^[4]

Frederick Punchard (age 26, son of Alfred Punchard) married Louisa Etherington (age 26, daughter of William Etherington) on 20 Apr 1896 in Rogate, Sussex.^[5] The marriage was registered in Midhurst, Sussex in the second quarter of the year.^[6]

Frederick and Louisa had at least two daughters: Louisa (Punchard) Leppard (1897-1973) and Ethel May (Punchard) Coombes (1906-). [A third daughter is associated with them, however her birth registration does not have Etherington as her mother's maiden name and she does not appear on the 1911 census, so it is unclear if she is actually related: May Alexandra Punchard (1902-).]

In 1901 Frederick Punchard (age 29, Hackney Carriage Driver) lived at New York Street in Brighton with his wife Louisa (29) and daughter Louisa (3).^[7]

In 1911 Frederick Punchard (age 40, Cab Driver) lived in Preston, Sussex with his wife Louisa (40) and two daughters: Louisa (13) and Ethel (5).^[8]

Frederick Punchard passed away in 1945, aged 75 years. His death was registered in Staines, Middlesex in the last quarter of the year.^[9]
