Narrative and Notes

Kate, the youngest daughter of Frederick Stokes, married Harold Reid, son of Sir Thomas Reid, in 1915. Harold was Resident Engineer in charge of the construction of the G.W.R. Birmingham Moor Street stations, and the widening of the Bordesley to Moor Street viaduct.

Kate may have met Harold while working as a lady's help in Erdington, Birmingham. They married in Hammersmith in 1915. There were no children from this marriage.

There is no record of the marriage other than the newspaper announcement, and oral memory from Andrew WEAVER recalling his great aunt talking about Harold REID working on the railway. There is also a newspaper mention of Harold being sued by Evesham Overseers of the Poor in 1916 while living at La Quinta. So the 'marriage' appeared to be genuine.

But there are a couple of mysteries. A. Why is there no civil marriage record? B. What happened to Harold?

As regards the marriage, there may have been an existing wife called Rebecca Eliza REID nee LAND. A Harold REID married Rebecca LAND in Hampstead in 1907. There is no record of Rebecca RIED's death before 1915 or of Harold REID's death before 1918. As for what happened to Harold: Harold is thought to have died in Whitchurch, Glamorgan in 1926 with Rebecca REID as the widow.

In 1918 Kate STOKES married George R SPENCE in Paddington. NB Kate used the surname STOKES.

As the evidence stands it looks like the marriage to Harold was annulled fairly quickly, although no documentary evidence has confirmed that.

It was reported that George and Kate had two children: Graham and Jane, although no birth records for these children have been found. A boy, John M SPENCE, born 27 Dec 1918, is living near Tetbury with Kate in 1939. He was born in West Ham, Essex 3-6 months after Kate and George were married. Another child, Janet D SPENCE was born there in 1923, also to a mother with maiden name STOKES. It is not known where the name Graham came from, but it may have been mistaken, or an earlier child of George.

Kate died in Portreath, Redruth in January 1962 and her probate record names both her husband George Robert SPENCE and her son John Mackay SPENCE.

Kate shared a memorial/burial service with her sister Annie Elizabeth at St Michael's, Broadway on 10 Jan 1962. She was cremated in Truro on 3 Jan 1962.

Droitwich Guardian
5th January 1962
MRS A. E. EDWARDS
The death of Mrs. Annie Elizabeth Edwards, formerly of Collinsfield, Evesham, which took place in her ninety-first year at Ravenscourt, Droitwich (on December 30th 1961), sees the passing of one whose family had long connections with Evesham and Broadway. She was born in Evesham and was one of the three daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Stokes, who then lived on Merstow Green at a house adjacent to the Almonry.
There on Merstow Green, Thomas Stokes carried on his business as a wheelwright and it was he who built the first "Famous Vale of Evesham Light Gardening Dray for a Half-Legged Horse to Trot" (the quotation is from his account book) a century ago, the forerunner of many that became so familiar a sight in the towns and villages from the sixties onwards. He built many more for the use of the Vale gardeners and among the familiar local names listed in his notebook for whom he made drays, traps, carts and trucks were such prominent figures in Victorian Evesham as Mayor Allard, Alfred Haines, Henry Masters, Messrs. Espleys, Fred Hirons, John Idiens and Fred George.
Thomas Stokes also had long-standing business dealings with the people of the circus and fairgrounds, and had a contract to effect necessary repairs and renewals to their waggons whenever they visited the district. He built living waggons for many of the show people's families as well as shooting galleries and other equipment peculiar to the trade of his wandering customers, and among the names figuring in his books are some still familiar today, such as Wilsons and Chipperfields.
The family eventually lived at La Quinta, Broadway, and in this village the drays and carts continued to be made and to play their part in the district's leading industry. Here the wheelwright's children grew up, and when the Maxton family visited the village to stay with Mr. and Madame de Navarro at Court Farm, they offered Mrs. Edwards a family post with them which took her for several years to Paris and other parts of the continent.
In 1897 she married at St. Lawrence Church, Evesham, Mr. Albert Parker Edwards, of Birmingham and they spent many years at Redditch and later Droitwich in the innkeeping and hotel industry. In the 1920's they were for several years proprietors of the Bear Hotel, Evesham and were afterwards at the Red Lion Hotel, Astwood Bank until Mr. Edwards death in 1930. A few years later Mrs. Edwards returned to Evesham living in Cheltenham Road and then at Collinsfield, until she moved to Droitwich a few years ago.
She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. H. J. Phipps, of Evesham, and Mrs. W. J. Weaver, of Bromsgrove, and two sons, Mr. Ralph Edwards, of Droitwich and Mr. Osmond Edwards, of Fownhope, Hereford. One daughter died in infancy, and her eldest son, Bert, died several years ago.
A joint memorial service for Mrs. Annie Elizabeth Edwards and her sister Mrs. Kate Spence will take place at St. Michael's church, Broadway on Wednesday.
Both Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Spence were born at Broadway.
