Searching for my 4xgreat grandmother Sophia Bacon/Miller. I have her on the 1841 and 1851 census, living with the millers, her son, my 3x great grandfather Benjamins fathers parents.
1841 Census: Heneage Street, Christchurch Spitalfields
Thomas Miller, 50, Shoemaker, Not born in County
Elizabeth Miller, 45, Middlesex
Sophia Miller, 20, Middlesex
Thomas Miller, 8, Middlesex
Benjamin Miller, 1, Middlesex
-----------
1851 Census: 8 Heneage Street, Christchurch Spitalfields
Thomas Miller, head, mar. 61, Journeyman Shoemaker, Newington Middlesex
Elizabeth Miller, wife, mar, 59, Pancras Middlesex
Sophia Miller, dau in law, Widow, 27, Charwoman, London Spitalfields
Thomas Miller, son, 17, Porter, London Spitalfelds
Benjamin Miller, son, 10, London Spitalfields
However she must have remarried between 1851 and 1861 as cannot find a death and cannot find her under Miller or Bacon on later census.
Found three possible marriages from Tower Hamlet BMD:
1856 Sophia BACON /C57 7/365/ Order 2 1856 George COPE /C57 7/365
1856 Sophia MILLER /C77 1/310/ Order 2 1856 John TEDDERMAN /C77 1/310
1860 Sophia MILLER /C12 12/341/ Order 2 1860 Stephen WINTER /C12 12/341
There is a Sophia Cope, right age in London on 1861 census, however norn in Kent so do not think this is the right one.
However, today whilst looking at the marriage of my 2 x great grandparents in Bethnal Green 1894, Julia Ann Miller (daughter of Benjamin, Sophias grandaughter) and Josiah Tomkins I noticed the witnesses are John Tomkins (Josiahs dad or brother) and an Elizabeth Tiddleman.
I'm wondering whether Elizabeth Tiddleman is linked to John Tedderman, Perhaps that marriage is the right one, and Elizabeth is maybe a half sister of Benjamin Miller, an auntie of Julia?
Can anyone help me confirm this or otherwise?
Thanks in advance
