Biography

Lina (Haydon) Boyd-Carpenter was born in Stansted, Kent, England.

Lina was born on 16 August 1871^[1] in Kent. She was the daughter of Frederic Wordsworth Haydon and Robina Fairbairn who married on 1 December 1868 at Leeds.^[2] (Note; her father was the son of Benjamin Robert Haydon^[3], painter of note, who was friends with William Wordsworth^[4], hence her father's second forename).

The registration of Lina's birth has not yet been determined. The exact place of Lina's birth is uncertain, other than it was in the County of Kent. The 1881 census suggests Fairseat? Muse, in Kent, while the 1911 census records Ashford in Kent.

Lina's mother died on 9 January 1873, at St Leonard's, Hastings, Sussex, aged 39.^[5] Lina was 17 months old.

At the 1881 census the family home was at 15 Chandos Place, Broadstairs, Kent. Details - father Frederic Haydon (widower, 52, fund holder, born Paddington, London), brother Andrew Haydon (11, born St James, London) and Lina Haydon (9, born Fairseat? Muse, Kent). There was also one resident domestic servant.^[6]

Lina's father died on 12 November 1886, in London, aged 59.^[7] Lina was 15.

At the 1891 census Lina F Haydon (19, born Kent) was resident at the household of a cousin, Thomas S Kennedy, at Park Hill, Wetherby, Yorkshire. Thomas Kennedy was absent but his wife Clara Kennedy (50) was present, along with seven servants, excluding the three grooms living in the attached stables.^[8]

On 2 October 1894 Lina Frederica Marie Mordwinoff Haydon (23, spinster, residence - Ashkam Richard, York; father - Frederick Wordsworth Haydon (deceased), Royal Navy) married William Boyd-Carpenter (25, bachelor, Inspector Board of Agriculture, residence - Edgbaston, Birmingham; father - "William Boyd Ripon", Bishop) at Askham Richard, York, Yorkshire. The marriage was registered at York in the fourth quarter of 1894. The location of the marriage, Askham Richard, is the same village that Lina's aforementioned cousin, Thomas S Kennedy, was residing in at the 1881 census.^[9][10][11]

Lina's whereabouts at the 1901 census has not yet been determined. At this census her husband William Boyd Boyd Carpenter (head, married, 31, private secretary, born Tetsworth, Oxfordshire), was at 40 Manchester St, Rectory, St Marylebone, London, on his own, a private secretary. This was apparently a property with three households in it.^[12]

Son Vivian Frederick William Boyd-Carpenter was born in 1904 at Harrow-on-the- Hill, Middlesex^[13], registered at Hendon, Middlesex, and baptised on 18 September 1904 at North Stainley, four miles from Ripon, Yorkshire, where her husband's father was Bishop. Vivian's baptism register gave no profession for his father but recorded the family address at the time as 6 N Montagu(e) Mansions, London.

Son Gilbert Denis (or Denys) Ewart Boyd-Carpenter was born in 1907 at Paddington, London,^[14] registered at Paddington, and baptised on 13 March 1907 at Christ Church, where her husband's brother-in-law, Rev Richard Bartram Tollinton, conducted the ceremony. Gilbert's baptism register described his father's profession as "Gentleman" and recorded the family address at the time as 58 Gloucester Terrace, London.

At the 1911 census the family home was at Marston Lodge, London Road, Harrow-on-the-Hill, Middlesex. Details - husband William Boyd Carpenter (41, private sercretary (now unemployed), born Tetsworth, Oxfordshire), Lina Frederica Mordwinoff Boyd Carpenter (39, born Ashford, Kent), son Vivian Frederick William Boyd Carpenter (6, born Harrow-on-the-Hill) and son Denis Gilbert Ewart Boyd Carpenter (4, born Paddington, London). There were three servants resident - nurse, cook and housemaid. This census also recorded that Lina and her husband had been married for 16 years, and had had two children, both of whom were still living.^[15]

In June 1912 Lina posed for the photograph used in this profile. It is not clear what event, if any, this was for.

Some time before August 1917 Lina and her husband must have been divorced.

It appears that Lina's husband remarried on 1 August 1917 in California, marrying widow May Hornbrook (also known as Ivy May), of the National American Woman Suffrage Association.^[16]

Electoral registers for 1925 placed Lina Frederica Boyd-Carpenter at 11 Spa Buildings, Montpellier Spa Road, Chletenham, Gloucestershire. Joseph and Jane Deacin were also registered electors at this address.

In the 1939 England and Wales Register Lina Boyd-Carpenter (born 16 August 1871, married) was listed at Friar Bank, Rotherham Road, Tickhill, Yorkshire. She was living on her own and described as being of private means.^[17]
