Introduction 

These pages are centred on the Faulder Family of Cumberland descended from Robert Faulder and Anne Jacksonopen pdf window.

The content of these pages have been prepared by me, David Faulder (son of one of Robert Faulder's 31 known Great Great Great Great Grandchildren). I can be contacted on the email address below.

The general scope of my interest is "the descendants of my ancestors together with their spouses and immediate parents and siblings". This may be extended in cases where research of maritally related lines (such as the Blaylocks or Crowthers) may yield more information about the main ancestral lines. The main example of this is the family of Catherine Blaylock's first Husband (Robert Faulder) - her second husband, from whom I am descended, was also called Robert Faulder.

A separate page summarises my ancestors together with links to details of their descendants updated 23 June 2008

    • Alternative suggestions for William Faulder's parents
    • Edward Faulder suggested:
      • that William's father was Robert Faulder
      • that his mother was Catherine Blaylock
      • that she had previously been married to another Robert Faulder
    • Evidence suggests that that is the case and that there are various links between the resulting half-families.
    • Another suggestion named Joseph and Susannah Faulder of Carlisle as parents; this couple would seem to be unrelated.

    • Eileen Mary Fell was a first cousin of my paternal grandmother, Marjorie Fell Faulder (née Lendrum). Her mother Elizabeth Fell was a sister of Eileen's father Henry Fell.
    • Eileen was shown by Marjorie Fell Faulder to have married a Petrie, but I could not find a reference to this marriage.
    • I could however find a reference to a marriage to a Steinthal - but not to his death.
    • It turns out that Steinthal had changed his name during WW1 to Petrie (his mother's maiden name).
    • Searching through on-line sources such as the London Gazette and the London Times plus being provided with photographs of a family memorial helped identify Eileen's descendants and their immediate cousins.

    Evelyn Faulder drove an Ambulance with the FANY during World War One [more detail]

    • Third daughter of Joseph Sewell Faulder & Emily Storyopen pdf window. My Great Aunt.
    • The London Gazette of 5 July 1918 open new window gives the following citation:
      His Majesty the KING has been pleased to approve of the award of the Military Medal to the under mentioned Ladies -for distinguished services in the Field, as recorded: — Miss Sarah Bonnell, First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, Miss Evelyn Gordon-Brown, First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, Miss Aileen Maude Faulkner, First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, Miss Evelyn Faulder, First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, Miss Nellie Dewhurst, V.A.D., attd. First Aid Nursing Yeomanry.
      For gallantry and conspicuous devotion to duty, when an ammunition dump had been set on fire by enemy bombs and the only available ambulance for the removal of wounded had been destroyed. These ladies subsequently arrived with three ambulances, and, despite the danger arising from various explosions, succeeded in removing all the wounded. Their conduct throughout was splendid. War Office, 8th July, 1918.
    • (The date of the notice and date of publication are as stated - The date of publication is the date when the weekly Gazette was published; following this supplements, would be published under the same date as further notices were issued.)
    • Janet Lee in War Girls (p200)1 mentions that on 18th May 1918, ambulances from FANY Unit 8 (based at St Omer and attached to the British Second Army) were called out to an arms dump "along the Arques Road" (elsewhere spelt Arcques) which had been hit.
    • She says that on that night 16 Military Medals were earned by the Corps (out of a total of 18 awarded during the war). This is disputed by others (such as Sue Light) who claim that 18 Military Medals were awarded in total to the service; five of those during the months of October/November 1918, and 7 in a separate incident at St. Omer on 26 June 1918. (ref Great War Forumopen new window)
    • Janet Lee infers that these medals were awarded by General Sir Herbert Plumer at Second Army Headquarters. However, the British Journal of Nursing 24 May 1919 open new window records that three of the six Including Evelyn Faulder received their medals from the King at an investiture on 15th May in the Quadrangle of Buckingham Palace. This apparent contradiction may arise from receiving the medal ribbons in the field but the actual medals at a later investiture.
    • It is also believed that Evelyn was the first member of the family to hear of the death of Harold Faulder (q.v.) when a soldier "riding upfront" with her (possibly with other motives in mind) asked her her name.

    [more detail]

    • Suggestion that "Faulder" is a corruption of "Folder", one associated with (Sheep) Folds.
    • However, the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) suggests that the modern word "Fold" (as in "A pen or enclosure for domestic animals, esp. sheep") is derived from the Old English "Fald" - this would suggest that it is the "Fold" spelling which is the corruption.
    • The OED entry for "Fauld" also gives the following examples (amongst others):
      • 1788 BURNS My Hoggie ii, The lee-lang night we watch'd the fauld, Me and my faithfu' doggie.
      • c1470 Henry the Minstrel, The actis and deidis of the illustere and vailßeand campioun Schir William Wallace v. 177 Twa scheipe thai tuk besid thaim of a fauld.
      • 1802 R. ANDERSON Cumberland ballads 49 Auld Marget in the fauld she sits.
    • The Scottish Tour guide, Sandy Stevenson, notesopen new window that "fauld" is an alternative Scots word for "field".
    • Also within Scottish phonology, it is noted that "auld" often reduces to the modern "old" - again supporting the argument that "Fold" is a corruption of "Fauld".
    • An alternative derivation of the surname is that it is derived from a maker of "faulds". A "Fauld" is the piece of articulated armour that straps onto the bottom of the breastplate. It usually consists of two or four flared pieces called lames. (Example (bytheswordinc.com)open new window)

    Impression of arms granted granted to a Faulder - not necessarily us

    However, arms are granted to an individual and his legitimate male heirs - not to a surname. Can we trace the individual to whom they were granted?

    The General Armoury2 describes Faulder Arms as Are. three chaplets vert, roses gu. Crest-On a mountain a beacon inflamed all ppr. Translated this reads as Silver, three green garlands, roses red. Crest - On a mountain a beacon inflamed - normal colours. My interpretation of this is on the right.

    It is said that one morning when he was out riding in Petts Wood, Chislehurst he noticed that many people's houses still had their blinds down. Subsequently in 1907 he wrote a pamphlet called "The Waste of Daylight" and started to lobby parliament for a Daylight Saving Bill. He died before a bill was passed during the First World War to implement daylight saving (as an attempt to boost wartime production).

    Period: World War One
    Concept: Injury, Politics, Publication, Rescue, Trade Unionism, Job/Employment, War

    Wilfred Willett, a medical student, married Eileen Stenhouse in 1913. He joined the London Rifles in 1914 and was injured in December of that year, when he climbed out of the trenches to attempt to assist an injured man (Sergeant Moore) in No Man's Land. The injury was a severe head injury. [more detail]

    His wife concerned about the sudden lack of letters visited the regiment's London Headquarters and demanded to know what had happened to her husband. They eventually told her that he was gravely wounded and in Base Hospital at Boulogne in France. She then went to the foreign office and demanded a passport and after several refusals she was given travel documents for a trip to France. She (aged 22) travelled out there alone, located her husband and when she determined that the hospital felt unable to do anything for him arranged (after much resistance) for him to be repatriated.

    Having got him into the Duchess of Norfolk's Covalescent Home in Belgrave Square, London, she then discovered that they felt they could do nothing for him. So she arranged for him to be removed to the London Hospital where he had been training, where one of the team felt that they could perform a difficult operation to remove the shrapnel fragments from his brain. Because he was still in the care of the army, Eileen had to arrange for him to be smuggled out at night. However, they were spotted doing so and the Duchess was summoned and Eileen again had to demand to be permitted to take her husband elsewhere.

    The operation almost certainly saved his life but it took a long time for him to make a partial recovery. Although partly physically disabled, he was active and took a great interest in ornithology and agricultural affairs. He published many books on british birds and was an active trade union organiser for the National Union of Agricultural Workers. He also joined the communist party.

    Their story was originally published in slightly fictionalised form by Jonanthan Smith as "Wilfred & Eileen". In the 1980s this book formed the basis for both a radio play and a TV series. Marjorie Seldon (their daughter) later published a fuller family biography called "Poppies and Roses".

    It was suggested that members of his team had bribed voters to vote Conservative. After a petition by the Liberal Party the result was declared void.

    As a result there was a Royal Commission set up to look into the scandal and the reports of the commission filled many columns of the Times.

    The House of Commons refused to approve the writ for the by-election on a number of occasions - the reasoning seeming to be that the electorate was as corrupt as the political parties.

After Isabella was widowed she kept house for Thomas Faulder, William Faulder's 2nd son (No1 died young). It is likely that Thomas Faulder inherited most of William Faulder's documents and Isabella then inherited from Thomas Faulder.

    Included in these photos may be the oldest photos we have of "our" branch of the Faulder Family. There are also photos from William's half family (from his mother Catherine Blaylock's 1st marriage to a Robert Faulder).

    Liz Clark & I have agreed to make this album public so that it shows in Google Search and others can help with identifications. Thanks to Liz for lending this album to me at 1st meeting! Also to Eleanor Hodgson for many identifications. DSF
