Notes about Ruth PARRISH

1901 aged 9, living near the Church, Post Office, Upper Gravenhurst with parents, Reuben and Adeline Parrish, and siblings.

1911 aged 19, living at Gravenhurst, Ampthill with parents, Reuben and Adeline Parrish, widowed great uncle Thomas Parrish, and seven siblings.

Ruth was born in Gravenhurst on 29 September 1891. She remained at home with her
parents and brothers and sisters until 1913 when she was recorded in the Electoral Register
as living at 89 Lea Road, Luton, where her sister Adeline was living. That same year she
married Charles Walker (nothing known).lt would appear that at first the couple settled in
Luton, where their first two children were born: Ruby Nellie Elvena (always known as 'Vena')
in 1914 and Ruth in 1916. This suggests that Charles had no military service in World War 1.
By 1918 the family had moved to Bedford where the Electoral Registers record them at 21
Beatrice Street, Kempston until 1924. Then we find them living for a year in Church Street,
Gravenhurst. Then a bit of a mystery: the Registers for 1926 and 1927 show Ruth on her,
own back in Beatrice Street, although the couple's son, Roland, was born in March 1927.

ln 1928 they were both back in Gravenhurst for a while, but 1931 finds them living at 187
Cutenhoe Road, Luton, with Reginald (a brother?) and Lilian Walker. clearly this was a
temporary stay as the following year they were living at 98 Richmond Hill, moving the
following year to No 55. After the Second World War they had moved to Aubers Farm,
Lower Sundon, near Luton, one of the Parrish Brothers' farms. They remained there until
1965 when they moved to Chibley Farm, between Shillington and Stondon, another family
property.

Ruth died in 1986 aged 94. The date of charles' death is unrecorded.
