Directory
Information taken from "The times"
on 5 Dec 1829.
Yesterday afternoon, at five o'clock, an inquisition was taken before Mr
Gell, at the Horse and Dolphin, Macclesfield Street, Soho, on the body of
Thomas Curby, a fine child aged four months, who died in the following
sudden manner:
- Joseph Curby, the father of the deceased child, stated that he was the son
in law to Mr Richardson, the Landlord of the Horse and Dolphin, and resided
with him. The child was put to bed in good health on Thursday evening, and
along with witness and his mother. Witness went to bed about two o'clock in
the morning, and soon after the child began to cry.
His wife remarked that he was in a profuse perspiration. He soon after fell
asleep, and did not wake until seven o'clock. He again went to sleep, and
about nine o'clock his wife, who got up and went down stairs, leaving him
and the child in bed. In about a minute she came back, and he was on the
point of getting out of bed when he observed the child looked very pale.
He took hold of him, and found he was quite dead and cold, and from his
appearance must have been dead some time. The deceased has latterly been
cutting his teeth, and suffered great pain. The surgeon was of opinion that
the child died in a fit; and the jury returned a verdict of "Died by the
visitation of God."
1829/Mr Richardson/../../../The Times **
I can tell you that Mr James Richards, Hotel Keeper was married to Mary Ann
Smith. Their daughter was Mary Ann Richards and she married Joseph Curby on
27 August 1827 St George Hanover Square London .
The information on the parents comes from Mary Ann Curby�s death Certificate
[died 9 April 1888 Petersham Sydney Australia].
Joseph Curby from Enfield, was a dealer/Auctioneer in Australia but his
father [also Joseph still alive in 1851 census] was a blacksmith so possibly
Joe jnr was doing some smith work for hotel visitors if the pub had a
stable. ***
