Unmarked grave Annie Maria Dealey (née Dollimore) (1875-1932) (Incorrectly indexed as Maria Anne)
Annie was born in 1875 in Hardingstone, now a suburb of Northampton, but baptised in St Mary’s, Northchurch 14 March 1877. Her father, James Dollimore, born in Pitstone, was a railway porter and appears to have moved to Northampton as part of his employment in 1876. Her mother was Elizabeth (née Skidmore) whose family lived in Northchurch. They had married in Berkhamsted in 1872.
James and Elizabeth seem to have retained a residence in Northampton because the St Mary’s burial register for the St Mary’s register for July 14 1878 records the burial of James Dollimore aged 24, of Northampton. Tragically, less than a month later, on August 4, little Alice Maud Dollimore, aged 3 weeks, was buried there too.
The 1881 census shows that Elizabeth and Annie Maria returned to Northchurch and were living with her parents in New Road, but in 1882 Elizabeth married widower George Sutton, originally from Dorset, an assistant gamekeeper on the Ashridge estate.
The 1891 census records them living at “Cottage in the Firs” on Ashridge Common. George had a daughter from his first marriage, one year older than Annie, and also two sons with Elizabeth – Henry and little Nimrod who sadly died aged only 5.
Annie married Alfred Dealey, from Berkhamsted, in 1895 and their daughters Alice (1896), Rose E (1898) and Edith M (1900) were all born in Berkhamsted.
In March 1901 they were living at 4, the Wilderness. Alfred was a timber carter.
The family increased with William (1903) and Florence Annie (1905).
By 1908 the family had moved to 16/17, Red Lion Yard where little Florence Annie died that year. She is buried in an unmarked grave in this cemetery.
Hilda A was born in 1909.
In 1911 the family were still living at 16/17, Red Lion Yard and Alfred was working for the Urban District Council. A note against the entry for little William reads “feebleminded from birth.” 25 year old Samuel Dealey, a farm labourer, was living with them as a boarder.
Son John was born in 1913.
By the time of the June 1921 census they had moved to 20/21, Red Lion Yard. Alfred was still working for the UDC and Edith was a laundress. Hilda and John were also still at home and grandson Ronald H (born 1919) was living with them. It seems likely that he was Edith’s son.
By 1926 Alfred and Annie had moved to 15, Holly Drive where Annie died in November 1932 aged 57. She was buried 7 November.
