I have the birth cert of James John Joseph William Hummerston on which it names Elizabeth Herrick as his mother.
I know when James was born they lived at 11 Enochs Ct. Whitechapel.
I have found Elizabeth and Henry's marriage Oct qtr 1850 Pancras 1 307
and entries in 1861 and 1871 census with her married name but can find no trace of any birth or census entry before this.
According to the census she was born c 1829 St Pancras but i m unble to confirm this
Thanks for giving me a shot

In 1851 there's a Joseph and Mary Herrick at 22 West St St Pancras. It looks like it says Navigator for him, but probably my eyes are deceiving me! lol
Thank you very very much
I was beginning to think she didnt exist before she married lol
Thanks again

That's where the word navvy comes from. He could well have been a canal, road or railway builder.
There are three baptisms of children for Joseph and Mary o the IGI, but not one for Elizabeth. This might be their marriage on the IGI:
JOSEPH HERICK
