Note	William George Underwood 1841-1925 William George Underwoods was born on 23 September 1841 at Gloucester, Gloucestershire, and was baptised at St Lukes Church, South Hamlet, Gloucester, on 17 October 1841. His parents were George William Underwood and Maria Lane who got married in 1840 In Gloucestershire. He married Emma Birmingham in Bristol, Gloucestershire in 1862, and they had at least three children Joshua W Underwood born at Bedminster, Bristol in 1866 Sarah Underwood born at bedminster, Bristol in 1869 Joseph Underwood born at Bedminster, Bristol in 1871. He was possibly a patient in a mental hospital for thirty years towards the end of his life, and may have died at Islington, London in 1925.

We cannot be absolutely certain that the above census record refers to William George Underwood, but it is in Bristol (where he married the following year) and the age is right. I have been unable to find any better match elsewhere. 1862 Marriage UK Marriage index April-June, Bristol, Gloucestershire, vol 6a, page 173.

George Underwood, nephew, Unmarried, 14 yrs, Machine Ruler, born Bristol, Somerset. It is not known for certain what happened to William George Underwood between the 1871 Census when he was 30 years old mason living with his wife, and the 1901 census when he was a 59 year old bricklayers labourer living apart from his wife. In the 1881 census his wife is listed as the head of the family living with her children in Bedminster, Somerset. However, she is listed as as a 'Married' dress maker, not 'Widowed' or 'Divorced'. By the 1891 census she is still in Bedminster, but described as a Widowed Tailoress, and in the 1901 she is listed at Bristol, Gloucestershire as a 70 year old Mother in Law. In contrast, William George Underwood simply disappears and there does not appear to be a William George Underwood of the right age who died between those years (1871 and 1901). However, there is a William Underwood listed in the 1881 and 1911 Census as a patient at a mental health hospital (or as it was described then, an asylum for imbeciles) at Caterham, Surrey whose estimated year of birth would be 1844. It appears that he was allowed to work as a labourer in the late 1800's early 1900's. 1881 UK Census. (Uncertain) District Assylum For Imbeciles, Caterham, Surrey. William Underwood, patient, aged 37, lunatic. 1901 UK Census (Uncertain) Wooten Street, Lambeth, London, Middlesex. William G Underwood, Lodger, 59 years, Bricklayers Labourer, born Gloucestershire. 1911 UK Census. (Uncertain) Caterham, Surrey, England. William Underwood, Inmate, aged 67, Labourer, born 1844 (estimated). The death of William George Underwood is also impossible to determine with absolute certainty. The following William G Underwood died aged 87 in 1925, but that would make his birth 1838, three years before his known birth year of 1841. However, if he did spend over 30 years in an asylum, at the time of his death his date of birth may not have been known accurately. 1925 Death (uncertain).

FUTURE RESEARCH Future Research Check records for District Assylum for Imbeciles, Caterham, Surrey, where William Underwood is listed as a 37 year old patient in 1881; and as a 67 year old inmate and labourer in 1911.
