BOULDEN Albert – There were two Boulden brothers both born in Putney and both killed in WW1. It seems odd that only Albert is named on the memorial. I'll give details for both. Albert Boulden is named on the 1911 Census. The address was given as 2 Johnsons Yard, Walsoken,Wisbech, Cambs. He was listed as the head of the household and aged 29. His occupation was given as a labourer at a market garden and he was single. His mother Harriet, was listed as being a widow and aged 59, she was born in Lambeth. On the 1891 Census Albert's father was alive, his name was George and he was a mason. Albert's parents have six children. George junior, aged 17 a general labourer. William, aged 15 also a general labourer. Rose aged 13. Arthur aged 13, Albert aged 9 and Robert aged 1. Their father was born in Kent, their mother was born in Lambeth, all of the children were born in Putney. On the 1891 Census the family were living at 53, Banim Street, Hammersmith. In 1901 Albert was living at with his parents at 32 Humbolt Road, Fulham, since demolished. Albert was killed on the 3rd December 1916. He was a Lance Corporal in the Suffolk Regiment, 9th Bn. He enlisted at Wisbech. He had a daughter, Charlotte May of 27 Clarks Road, Dovercourt, Harwich, Essex. Her age was unknown.
