Individual Details

Catherine (Kate) HUSSEY

(10 Oct 1875 - 13 Mar 1944)

Kate's baptismal sponsors were Charles McCarthy and Ellen Mary McCarthy.

Kate is listed in the 1901 and 1911 census returns for her parents' household at 23 St. Mary Abbots Terrace, Kensington, suggesting she probably moved back in with them after the death of her husband, Harold. The 1911 census tells us she was working as a builder's clerk, suggest she worked for her father.

Kate appears to have moved out sometime after that as the 1919 electoral register suggests that her sister Agnes was living alone at that address in that year. However, the electoral registers for 1925 and 1930 tell us that Kate was back at 23 St. Mary Abbots Terrace, living with her sisters Agnes and Elizabeth. However, according to the electoral registers for 1936 and 1937 and the 1939 Register, Kate and Elizabeth are shown as living at 18 Marloes Road in Kensington.

From the Index to Wills we know that Kate later moved to Leicester, where she lived at 31 Knighton Drive. The reason for the move appears to have been the fact that her daughter (and only child), Marjorie had moved to Leicester (Marjorie's address at the time of the death of her aunt Elizabeth Hussey in 1941 was 1 Leicester Road, Glenfield, Leicester). Kate evidently moved to Worthing in West Sussex towards the end of her life, probably due to the fact that Marjorie had moved to Sussex. The Index to Wills also tells us that Kate left £10,013 8s 3d to Marjorie.
