Notities over Esther PARRISH

1871 aged 9, living at Wigglesworth, Long Preston, Yorkshire with her aunt and uncle, Sarah and William Whittimore.

1891 aged 29, visiting her cousins, Sarah and William Whittimore, at the Lodge, Upper Gravenhurst. May not be this Esther, there is another Esther Parrish born one year earlier.

1911 aged 49, living at Pomfield Cottage, Little Berkhampstead, Hertfordshire, in the employment of carter, Arthur James Roberts 50 and his son Bertram Horace 14 and adopted son Harold George Whittamore Gardner aged 8.

Esther was born on 10 Oct 1861and baptised. at the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Luton, on 17 Dec 1861.

The 1871 census indicates that at the age of nine she was living with her uncle william whittimore (a farm worker, born in silsoe) and his wife sarah in Wigglesworth, Yorkshire. Curiously neither the 1881 or 1901 census has any record of Esther. But the 1891 census shows that she was back in Gravenhurst with uncle William and aunt Sarah, who were now living at the Lodge, lon. Esther is shown as a visitor, and her occupation given as dressmaker.

It seems that Esther was somewhat unstable mentally. There is a record of an Esther Parrish being admitted as a 'lunacy patient' to Three Counties Asylum on 24 August 1909 . She was discharged on 20 December that year. lt may be that she was also there in 1881 and 1901. Some patients were sporadically admitted and discharged from the asylum throughout their lives, with family and friends taking responsibility for much of their care when they were not committed.

In 1911, aged 49, she was working as housekeeper to Arthur Roberts, a widower born in Shillington, at Little Berkhampstead near Hertford. Roberts was a carter on a farm and had a son and an adopted son whose name, oddly enough, was Harold George Whittimore Gardner.

Esther's death in 1917 is registered in Biggleswade, clearly indicating that she had been re-admitted to the Three Counties Asylum for the last time.
