So Ann Hall was a widow by
1901.
There is evidence that she may
have married Samuel Mede at some stage. Samuel
Mede had married Teresa Featherstone in 1891 in Yarmouth. According to the
article below, Samuel Mede came to live in Brotton
in about 1896. The article refers to the late Mrs Mede, a sister of Charles
Farndale who died in about 1907. So it seems that
Annie married Samuel Mede sometime after 1901. But I am struggling to find the
BMD records to support this. And why was she called Mrs Hall when she died?
1907
Annie Maria Hall died in
1907, aged 71 and was buried at All Saints, Hutton Rudby
(8km SW of Stokesley). She was buried on
2 March 1907.
1916
Samuel Mede’s ninetieth
birthday was announced in the Whitby Gazette on 3
March 1916: Mr S N Mede, of Day’s Terrace, Brotton, has just
celebrated his ninetieth birthday. He was born on February 1st, 1826, and in the course of his long life has lived in the reign of
five Sovereigns of England, a truly notable fact. Although so far advanced in
years, he enjoys good health. Mr Mede is a returned customs
officer, and came to live at Brotton from Great Yarmouth about twenty
years ago. Eight years ago he lost his wife by death.
Mrs Mede was a sister of the late Mr Charles Farndale, of Kilton lodge,
Broughton. Until prevented by age and infirmity, Mr Mede, previous
to coming to Brotton, frequently occupied Methodist pulpits as a local
preacher in the Wesleyan connection, with which body he is still associated. On
the attainment of his ninetieth birthday, he was the recipient of felicitations
from friends.
1926
Samuel Mede gave probate in
his will to Annie’s nephew, George: MEDE,
Samuel Nightingale of 4 Days Terrace, Brotton, Yorkshire died 7 March 1920.
Probate London 30 June to George Farndale farmer. Effects £500 4s 4d. Samuel
Nightingale Mede was baptised on 6 February 1926 at Great Yarmouth in Norfolk.
