Staples Family – Annie Maria Staples

 

Annie Maria (or Anne Marie) was born in 1855, and lived with her parents at 32 Northbrook Street, Newbury until between 1881 and 1891 when she moved out possibly because her mother died and father remarried? She doesn’t appear to have been involved in the confectioners shop, and didn’t take it on after her father’s death or the death of her stepmother. She worked as a teacher of music and died in 1928, she is buried in Newtown Road cemetery (grave WA 19). The cemetery record says her uncle had apples named after him – Millers Seedlings. There is a link to my family here – Anne Miller was my great grandfather’s first wife. Her cousin, Anna Maria Paine, who was living with her in 1911 and 1921, died in 1935, and is also buried at the Newtown Road cemetery (WA 19).
