William Nathaniel Kimber was a Police Constable, born 1852 in the Southampton area of Hampshire, England.

He married Charlotte Capps at Mile End in 1874, and they had several children in various Hampshire towns. Probables are Hubert Edward Leonard Florence Beatrice Edgar and Arthur.

After leaving the Constabulary, he becama a Publican in Whitchurch, Hampshire.

I would like to contact any descendants.

William and Charlotte were married in the Stoke Damerel (Devonport) District of Devon, not Mile End.

Hubert was born there in 1875/76

My grandfather, Henry Ralph Kimber, was born in Petersfield in 1883. I am trying to trace any Kimbers who might be related to him.

Please look at the attached newspaper clipping from our family records and see if there is any connection that you can see.

Hi Mike.
Yes I was. It was interesting as I haven't seen that one before and didn't realise Elizabeth had lived in Charles Street. I used to work there! Do you have a date for it please?
Not sure if you know his but Elizabeth's niece, my great grandmother, was born in The Spain Arms just round the corner from Charles Street. Can't access my records at this moment but think her birth year was either 1887 or 1889.

The only date I have at this point is on a typed version of the funeral notice - see attached - about 1911. At the moment I am getting together from Elizabeth passingham (aka Hill) my Grandmother down. Do you have any information up from her up.

Hello!

My maternal grandfather was Henry Ralph Kimber and he was born on 2 July 1883 in Petersfield.

His father, Thomas Frederick Kimber was born in 1863 and in the 1891 census he was described as a baker and innkeeper of The Spain Arms in Petersfield.

It is possible therefore that we may be very remotely related!

Best wishes
