Recorder's Notes | William Kyle Hardy was born in Co Cork but was living in England as a boy & went to school in Winchester (1881 census). He joined the Army and was a Lieutenant in the Royal Artillery in India in1889. He married Jessie Harland, daughter of the Vicar of Harefield, Middlesex in 1899. She had been at school in Oxford but lived at home afterwards. Their two daughters and a son were all born in West Bengal, India where William was serving. By the 1911 Census William was a Major with the family living in Wonston, nr Sutton Scotney, Hants. He was a Lt Col. by 1915 and serving in the Indian Medical Service in 1917. They were still in Wonston in 1918. The first record of the family living at 8, Buckingham Rd, Newbury was in 1929 & they lived here until William was killed in his sleep by carbon monoxide poisoning in 1936 and Jessie's death in 1951. Their two unmarried younger children also lived at 8, Buckingham Rd, Hubert, an engineer, until his marriage in 1945 and Janet until about 1959.
