In my minds eye I can see Charles walking from his home in Compton Valence with a small suitcase for 1 1/4 Hours before getting to the railway station in Maiden Newton. Buying a GWR ticket to Dorchester, changing over to LSWR and buying another ticket, this time all the way to London. This is purely conjecture of course, he could have travelled all the way on GWR via Yeovil. Or alternatively by the slower stagecoach. However he got there, he was drawn to the largest city in the world, to commence a very different life.

Metropolitan Police Force

Met Police Ret Charles Pomeroy p1On 6 May 1878 he joined G Division of Metropolitan Police in London, when he was still single and 23 years of age. He went on to do 25 years of service, retiring on the 11th May 1903. 

This information is from the Metropolitan Police Pensioner records.

Met Police Ret Charles Pomeroy p2

 

Also from these we can see he was 5ft 91/inches tall with dark brown hair and blue eyes.

His place of birth is Bradford Peverill, a misspelling of Bradford Peverell,  Dorset.

His date of birth in this record is 30 September, with the year obscured in the page crease. His age on registration is 48, which gives a calculated year of birth of 1854.

The calculation of 30 September 1854 to 11 May 1903 is 48 years 7 months 11 days. Which fits with the 48 Years complete.

The Particulars of Service; As a Police Constable, PC, for 25 years performing ordinary street duty.

He is married to Charlotte Pomeroy and lives at 6 Beaconsfield Villas, Fulwell Road, Teddington, Middlesex.

He transferred to the Hammersmith Division during his service.

From the information here I was able to obtain additional records from the National Archives Police Records. MEPO4/353, page 3 and page 56.

The oath he swore on 6 May 1878 as he joined the Metropolitan Police and was allocated to G Division, with warrant number   62562.

NA Metropolitan Police Oath

 NA Metropolitan Police Joined 6 May 1878

 I have added a blue arrow to indicate Charles Pomeroy as the entry is faint. The writing for each person is similar but not the same. Could this be Charles signature? Does it match the retirement document? Albeit 25 years apart.

The start of his long service as a Police Constable for the Metropolitan Police Force.

 

 

There are a couple of inconsistencies compared to his police records, which need to resolved as we move forward.

Somewhere he gained a middle name of Edward in the initial family tree data I have found on Ancestry, and a date of birth of 13 September 1854. Yet to be verified. His baptism was on 29 October 1854.

 

 

Marriage

Moving on, Charles Pomeroy returned his home County of Dorset, to marry Charlotte Elizabeth Cousens in the Parish Church of St Mary Maiden Newton, on 15 December 1878.

His age is either 24 years 3 months 2 days or 24 years 2 months 15 days depending on 13th or 30th September.

It is not always the case but the marriage certificate also states his age as being 24. A bachelor. Her age is stated as 22, a spinster.

He is confirmed as a Police Constable living in Clerkenwell which is in London. His father is John Pomeroy a Labourer. Charlotte has no recorded profession, living in Maiden Newton. Her Father, Robert Cousens  was not able to walk her down the aisle as he was recorded as deceased.

Both Bride and Groom could write their name whereas some could only make their mark. Not surprising though for a Police Constable and his new wife.

The witnesses are Thomas Zucker and Elizabeth Balls, or similar.

They were married by Martyn Harley, or 1869 Montague Hankey, M.A., Canon of Salisbury.

 Again an official document without a middle name Edward. The same applies to his Baptism record.

 Baptism Charlotte Mary Pomeroy 1880

 After the marriage they went back to Clerkenwell, and soon had their first baby. Charlotte Mary, born on 15 March 1880, 1 year 3 months after their marriage. Charlotte Mary was baptised at the parish church St Peter Clerkenwell on 25 April 1880.

The family were living at 29 John Street, apparently not to be confused with nearby Saint John Street. Charles is recorded as being a Policeman.

OS Map John St Holborn

It looks as if there was a St under the 29 in the register for St John Street, but the St has been crossed through. It could have been a mistake by the writer of the record as St John St is in Clerkenwell near the church as opposed to John St which is in Holborn, near Gray's Inn.

 The next map has the marker at St Peter's Church, near Farringdon Station, at the junction of Great Saffron Hill and Cross Street, and Saint John Street is shaded yellow.

OS 25 Map St John Street

29 John Street and 29 Saint John Street are not a long way apart, about 0.7 miles. However, assuming that the family lived in John Street, the front door with the brick arch in the photo, is the entrance to their home.

Google Streetview 29 John Street

 

 If it turns out to have been St John St, neither St Peter's Church nor number 29 have made it to the current time, and the plots have been redeveloped.

 

 

Sadly the family did not stay as three for very long. Charlotte Mary passed before her first birthday, in the third quarter of 1880.

Census 1881 Charles Pomeroy Clerkenwell

It is April 3rd, 1881, and another decade has passed since the last census had Charles Pomeroy living in the Parish of Compton Valence, Dorset. A lot has happened since then. Moving to London, becoming a Policeman, getting married and having and losing a little girl. The Census confirms Charles and Charlotte Pomeroy living at 29 John Street with another family. A multiple occupancy house is not a surprise.

He is recorded as a Police Constable and their ages 26 and 24.

An opportunity to check that it is the building in the photo by comparing the Enumerators Route.

Not so simple, Mr Robson, the Enumerator usefully laid out his proposed route in his notes, but in does not match the map.

  • Exmouth Street 23 to 69
  • Tysoe Street 1 to 15
  • Wilmington Street
  • Margret Street 54 to 68
  • Upper Yardley Street
  • Wilmington Street 1 to 12 and 25 to 37
  • John Street 1 to 30
  • John Place 1 to 3
  • John Yard 1
  • Tysoe Place
  • Yardley Street

No problem here, it includes the expected John Street with the right numbers included.

However, looking on the OS 25" Map of the area, revised 1915, all of the roads are in the vicinity of Wilmington Square  except John Street, Place and Yard. the latter two I have yet to find on the map. Strange to have such a disjoint. Was there another John Street in 1881?

OS Map London Wilmington Sq 1894

The OS Map of London revised in 1894 has John's Mews near Wilmington Square.

Perhaps John Street, Place and Yard disappeared during the construction of Rosebery Avenue built 1887-92.

I will need to find an earlier map of the area.

I have found an earlier street map, an extract from “Reynolds’s Splendid New Map of London; Showing The Grand Improvements for 1847”, and shows the area before the construction of Rosebery Avenue. Although it does have a road between Tysoe Street and Yardley Street which is displaced by Rosebery Avenue it is un-named, an therefore inconclusive. (near the red circle on the extract in the link)

On the same site, 'a london inheritance', I also found the following extract.

Clearance of the route commenced in 1887, and the new street was opened in July 1892. The new street was named after Lord Rosebery, the first chairman of the London County Council. Lord Rosebery had resigned from the LCC a few days before the opening of Rosebery Avenue, so John Hutton, the vice chairman took on the task of formally opening the street.

Compared to many other 19th century London street openings, that of Rosebery Avenue seems to have been rather subdued. The Illustrated London News reported simply that:

“The new street from the Angel at Islington to the Holborn Townhall, Gray’s Inn Road, called Rosebery Avenue, was opened on Saturday, July 9, by the Deputy Chairman of the London County Council. It is 1173 yards long, straight and broad, with a subway under it for laying gas and water mains and electric wires. It has cost £353,000, but part of this expenditure will be recovered by the sale of land”.

As well as being the first chairman of the LCC, Lord Rosebery was a prominent politician of the late 19th century and was a Liberal Party Prime Minister between March 1894 and June 1895 after William Gladstone had retired. In 1895 Rosebery’s government lost a vote of confidence and the resulting general election returned a Unionist Government. He continued to lead the Liberal Party for a year, then permanently retired from politics.

London County Council, set up by the Conservatives in 1889, eventually to displace Clerkenwell being in Middlesex.

Lord Rosebery died at his Epsom home on 21 May 1929 (aged 82). He had a dozen homes at the time and was the richest ever Prime Minister.

 

Later in 1881 Charles and Charlotte had another baby, this time a boy. I have not found any Pomeroy's Baptised in Saint Peter's Church in 1881. The Civil Registration Birth Index has Charles Henry Pomeroy born in Quarter 3 of 1881 and registered in Holborn. He died in the same Quarter according to the Register of Deaths Index. 

Another child is born in 1882 and the register is clear and unambiguous this time, still living at 29 John Street, and still a Police Constable.

Baptism Ellen Maud 1882

 

Ellen Maud Pomeroy born to Charles and Charlotte Elizabeth Pomeroy on 6th August 1882 and Baptised on 10th September 1882 in the Parish Church of St Peter, Clerkenwell, which was Middlesex the but would now be considered Islington, London.

Sadly, She died in the fourth Quarter of 1882, according to the Register of Deaths Index, Holborn. 

Charles and Charlotte had three children since their marriage in 1878 and none of them had passed their first birthday. Is that something to say about the air quality of the largest city in the world at that time, or general infant mortality.

Dr John Snow pump on Broadwick Street in Soho was in 1854 and the last outbreak of cholera in the UK was in 1866. Broadwick Street is 1 1/4 miles away from John St in Holborn plus it was decades before the three infants died.

Baptism William Henry Pomeroy 2 Nov 1884

 

Perhaps it was the home, perhaps due for demolition, because before the next child arrived Charles and Charlotte had moved to 20 or 26 Torrens Buildings, Islington. Charles is still a Police Constable according to the baptism record of 2nd November 1884. William Henry Pomeroy was born on 22nd September 1884. 

OS London Map Torrens Buildings

Torrens Buildings are not surprisingly on Torrens Street. They are however not separately identified on the later 25" map of the same area.

The Buildings are between the Grand Theatre and a Public House, later to become Islington Empire and Angel Station for London Underground. Torrens Buildings and the Public House have been redeveloped. The buildings opposite, on the East side of Torrens Street are apparently still of the period.

Fortunately there is no associated death record for William Henry Pomeroy in the same year, or the next. He survived beyond his first birthday.

The next recorded event is not a death but another birth.

Baptism Edward Pomeroy 6 Feb 1887

 

Baptised in the Parish Church of St Peter's Clerkenwell in the County of Middlesex on the 6th February 1887 Edward Pomeroy, born to Charles and Charlotte Elizabeth Pomeroy on 15th December 1886, of 20 Torrens Buildings. Charles is still a Police Constable.

Again, fortunately there is no associated death record for Edward Pomeroy in the same year, or the next. He survived beyond his first birthday.

Charles and Charlotte have remained loyal to St Peter's Church for Baptisms irrespective if they lived in John Street or now in Torrens Street. This has made it easier to just flick through the digital Parish Record of Baptisms book, since the date of their marriage in Dorset, looking for each child. So far, in that time, I have not seen any other Pomeroys.

Baptism Ellen Louisa Pomeroy 31 Mar 1889

 

 On 10th February 1889 Ellen Louisa Pomeroy was born to Charles and Charlotte Elizabeth Pomeroy.

Ellen Louisa Pomeroy was Baptised at the Parish Church of St Peter's Clerkenwell in the County of Middlesex on the 31st March 1889.

It helps confirm identification that Charles is still a Police Constable.

They have moved again, this time to 104 St John St, on the junction with Clerkenwell Road. Only 3/4 miles from Torrens Street, and now only just under 1/2 miles from St Peter's Church on St Cross Street / Great Saffron Hill.

Clerkenwell Road and Theobalds Road were constructed by the Metropolitan Board of Works in 1874–78 as the central portion of an intended cross-capital arterial road, linking the West End and East End. Rosebery Avenue mentioned above were also constructed by the Metropolitan Board of Works in 1887-92. If Clerkenwell Road was completed in 1878 it is quite possible that Charles and family moved into a newly built home at 104 Saint John Street.

Clerkenwell Road

 There is a lot of information about the development of Clerkenwell Road, as if it were a new motorway of its day.

The south-eastern corner of Clerkenwell Road and St John Street is occupied by a late-1870s speculative development originally incorporating baths for swimming and bathing, as well as houses and shops (Ills 558, 579). The 'Central Bath' establishment was short-lived, and this part of the building was subsequently adapted as an electroplating works.

The buildings, faced in white brick with stone and moulded-brick dressings, were designed by Robert Walker, district surveyor for St Martin-in-the-Fields, and built by J. J. Bennett & Co. in 1877–8. The principal developer appears to have been Alfred Bompas, gentleman, of Barnsbury, who applied for the site to the Metropolitan Board of Works in 1876, took the lease of the completed buildings in 1878, and attempted to purchase the freehold in 1879. However, a published account of th106 104 St John Ste new buildings states—as if the matter were open to question—that the works were carried out 'under the personal direction' of Bennett & Co., 'who are the originators and owners of the baths'. Bompas was not, according to his referees, in a position to finance the undertaking on his own account, and his relationship with Bennetts is not known.

The development consisted of six houses, five with shops, and the swimming-pool and baths behind, with its entrance at No. 104 St John Street. From the entrance (which retains its bracket lamps, though not the original ornamental iron cresting), a wide corridor led to the swimming-pool. Covered by a glass roof, this measured about 90ft by 30ft, with a 7ft deep-end. The pool was white-tiled and had an ornamental dolphin's head fountain on one side. Ranged along the poolside were dressing-boxes and 'other conveniences', and above were galleries on two levels each with fourteen private baths for men and women respectively. A demountable floor allowed the pool to be used for meetings during the winter, swimming—even indoors—being evidently still a seasonal recreation.Google Streetview 104 St John Street

The baths closed in 1896, and from then until the 1970s were occupied by E. C. Furby & Sons, electroplaters and enamellers of bicycle parts, the old slipper baths giving way to plating baths. Furby's premises were reported destroyed by fire in 1919. Nothing of the original pool and baths survives today.

 A similar view from Google Streetview captured in January 2021. Stirling Ackroyd Estate Agents is still in residence but with a rearranged shop front, now painted red, and the crest has been replaced by a window. The only real reason for the second photo is to be able to show where 104 St John Street is, because it is easier to say 106 is the red painted shopfront, and 104 is the next door giong round the corner, in black, to the right of Stirling Ackroyd as you look at either photo.

Below, an extract from Victorian London by George Augustus Sala Living London 1882. 

There can be scarcely any doubt that, at the West End, tramways would be an intolerable nuisance. The lovely drive to Richmond would be spoilt, as the drive to Greenwich has been spoilt, by these subversive aids to locomotion. The shopkeepers of Oxford Street are being menaced with a tramway. Take care. More than the thin end of the wedge has been inserted; and ere long Regent Street may be threatened, and Piccadilly find itself in peril.

On the other hand, I rode recently from Lamb’s Conduit Fields to the Standard Theatre in Shoreditch, through that prodigious thoroughfare from west to east, which has been opened up by the Metropolitan Board of Works, A great portion of the road is laid with tramways; and there can be no doubt that in these far outlying, densely populated, and incessantly busy districts tramways are a distinct boon and blessing.

I remembered, driving home, that, some months ago, I had at a certain town hall taken the chair at a public meeting, held in advocacy of the extension of tramways westward from the New Clerkenwell Road to Theobald’s Road. It rarely passed a wore diverting evening. It was a little exciting, too. There was a strong anti-tramway party at the back of the hall, who persistently yelled ‘Free streets!' and’ It’s a put-up job!' Towards the close of the evening the anti-tramway party tried to storm the platform, with the avowed object of ‘smashing the chairman.’ One burly gentleman, whose vocation, seemingly, was that of a brewer’s drayman, made desperate efforts to scale the stairs of the platform, shouting, ‘ Let me git at the willin’ in the vile veskit. On’y let me git at the willin’ in the vite veskit!’ I was the villain in the objectionable vest. There was a little old lady, too, in a red shawl, who, standing just in front of me, shook her fist implacably, shrilly expressing her fixed belief that I was ‘one of them Jesuits,’ and openly declaring her ardent desire to ‘lam’ me. What is it to be ‘lammed’?

Not only did Clerkenwell Road have those wretched trams, but it was also a junction, with trams going along Saint John Street as well. 104 St John Street may have been new, but it might have been a little noisy as well.

Back to the family.  The Civil Registration Birth Index has Ellen Louisa Pomeroy born in Quarter 1 (Jan, Feb, Mar) of 1889 and registered in Holborn. Unfortunately, she died in the following Quarter according to the Register of Deaths Index.

Baptism Albert Pomeroy 3 May 18911 year 8 months 28 days after the birth of Ellen Louisa Pomeroy born along comes another child, Albert Pomeroy, born 15th November 1890 and baptised the next year on 3rd May 1891. This time the church changed, to St Mary, Islington in the county of Middlesex.

A new baptism book with 'Born' in the date column instead of relying on somebody fitting the information in somewhere. Fortunately all the previous Pomeroy baptisms at St Peter had their date born as well as date baptised.

A new church and a new address, 18 Palmerston Buildings, which was in City Garden Row, City Road, Angel, Islington, Middlesex.

No photograph or Google Streetview to insert at the moment but instead an engraving.

 An extract of a story on facebook about City Garden Row during World War II

 

 I went back to City Garden Row a few years later to visit my cousin Bonny who still lived there. The rest of my family who had once lived in that street had all been rehoused to other districts of Islington, so the family had dispersed and we didn't see each other so often.
I was11 years old and it was 1941. Bonny and her family lived in the area flats in Palmerston Buildings. It was during the Blitz and when the air raid warning siren went off we didn't go down to the underground shelter as told but climbed the three flights of stairs onto the flat roof. Before the war we used to play up on the roof. Now there was barbed wire across the entrance to the door but we managed to push it back. Most people in Palmerston Buildings had gone down to the air raid shelter. My mum was on ARP duty that night and would have been out wearing her tin hat and arm band. Sometimes she used to read out bits from her instruction manual of the tasks she had to perform during an air raid. Once she read to us a bit from a pamphlet that said 'If you are approached by a man not carrying a gas mask who asks you in a foreign accent for directions, stay calm. Speak to him in plain English (as if my mum could speak German) and if he asks for directions, tell him to get on a number 14 bus and inform the the conductor of the bus to make him get off at the end of Hornsey Road and escort him into the police station. We all laughed but at the same time we were terrified. My mum said 'Blimey Nell, if I saw a German folding up a parachute I'd turn round and run the other way.'
It was dark and as we crept across the roof we disturbed families of sleeping pigeons around the chimney pots, who noisily flew into the air flapping their wings. At first we were frightened and not sure if to come down or not, but we hung onto the parapet and watched the City of London ablaze. Fire engines were rushing down the City Road towards Old Street. We stared in wonder at the glowing roof tops in the distance. Suddenly a voice called out from the street below
'Whoever is up there, come down'
We were too scared to answer and crouched down low. Bonny put her finger over her lips and whispered 'Ssh'. It was the local ARP warden in the street below who was patrolling the area.
'I know you are up there. Come down right now!' he demanded
We still stayed quiet, now terrified.
There was a pause and we thought he had gone and we relaxed when suddenly he shouted up 'You'd better hurry up and come down because Hitler's at The Angel.
That frightened the life out of us and we screamed and ran across the roof top towards the stairs causing the pigeons to fly up into the air again. We ran as quickly as we could down the stairs in the dark, shot back into the flat, got under the kitchen table as we'd been told and stayed there till the 'all clear'.

Following on from that story I wondered if Palmerston Buildings were destroyed during the Blitz.

Bomb Sight City Road

 No, apparently the immediate vicinity, including the City Road Basin and presumably adjacent industrial area, escaped the bombs of 1940.

Now for an unexpected find,

Charles Booth London St Peter Clerkenwell

 A detailed map of London, post Rosebery Avenue and Clerkenwell Road developments, indicating comparative wealth. This image is focused on the parish of St Peter Clerkenwell.

Having found this lets take a quick walk around the locations of Charles Pomeroy and family homes. First Rosebery Avenue / Wilmington Square, the possible location of John Street. The other John Street that I first thought was the home can be found after clicking on the map, move left past the house of correction, later Mount Pleasent PO Sorting office, to the end of Rosebery Avenue, and the Holborn Union Workhouse.

Along Theobalds Road and John Street is on the right, to the North.

Charles Booth London Rosebery Avenue

 Moving on the the next home, in Torrens Buildings, Torrens Street, near Angle.

Charles Booth London Torrens Street

Torrens Street is less wealthy that the previous location, indicated by the grey area. 'Poor 18s to 20 shillings per week for a moderate family'. Associated with the map are police notebooks. PC George H. Duckworth's Notebook: Police District 4 includes Torrens Street. Nothing significant, but a mention.

Charles Booth London Torrens Street PC Notebook

The next map is for 104 Saint Johns Street. I have superimposed a X on the image to assist in identification of Charles home. His home is now red, 'Middle Class, well to do'. However, the area is very mixed including some black, 'Lowest class, viscous, semi criminal'.

Charles Booth London 104 St Johns Street

The final map to bring us up to date, 18 Palmerston Buildings, which was in City Garden Row, City Road, Angel, Islington. Model Buildings according to the map. one side of the road 'fairly comfortable, good ordinary earnings', the other side, 'Poor 18s to 20 shillings per week for a moderate family'. That is less than a £1 a week. In 2019, the relative value of £1 0s 0d from 1890 ranges from £110.40 to £1,526.00.

I think he was in the fairly comfortable side of the street.

Charles Booth London City Garden Row

 I have also tried to find if he contributed to the PC notebooks, but it apears not.

Charles's home is very close to St Matthews Church but the baptism of Albert Pomeroy, on 3rd May 1891 took place at St Mary's Church, Islington.

Google Streetview St Mary Church Islington

 

 An extract about St Mary's Church

In 1824, Daniel Wilson became Vicar of St Mary’s. He was a dynamic Evangelical who transformed the church. After eight years he went on to become Bishop of Calcutta and his son was appointed Vicar and remained at St Mary’s for 54 years. Through their ministry St Mary’s grew and became a key Evangelical Parish throughout the 19th century and into the 20th century. The Islington Conference for Evangelical clergy in the Church of England was founded in 1827 and continued as a key focus for Evangelicalism until 1983.

On the third night of the Blitz in the Second World War, St Mary’s was hit by a bomb and the whole building apart from the spire was destroyed.

The church met in the Memorial Hall, until the new building was completed in 1956. Maurice Wood, an extraordinary Vicar oversaw this period of recovery and rebuilding. As the church was built so those attending St Mary’s grew rapidly due to his powerful evangelistic preaching. He later went on to become Bishop of Norwich.

Click here for the Bomb Map of the area.

Perhaps it is because it is an evangelical church that Charles travelled outside of his parish of residence. Perhaps also St Peter's, his previous church was tending towards evangelical and that contributed to him staying loyal to the church for all his previous children's baptisms.

 

 

Census 1891 Charles Pomeroy St Matthews Islington

 

In the 1891 Census taken on the 5th April, Charles and Charlotte Pomeroy were living in 18 Palmerston Buildings, City Gardens Row, in the parish of St Matthews, civil parish of St Luke. He was a Police Constable aged 36. Charlotte was aged 34. They have aged by ten years since the last census as expected. 

They have three unmarried/single sons living with them.

William H aged 6 born Islington

Edward aged 4 born Islington and

Albert aged 4 months  born St Luke

These names and ages correlate with the baptism records above. Three surviving children and another 4 who died in infancy.

Again a lot has happened in the decade between the Census.
