Hi,
Can anyone help please?
I have Thomas Harper b 29 Mar 1835 Newington Surrey, he marries Matilda Underwood on 17 Aug 1861 at Albany Chapel Camberwell. They have 3 children:- Harry, Selina Matilda, Emily and Jane - I got these names from the will of his mother Barbara Harper who died in 1896.
In the will she leaves money to the 3 children and says Thomas is dead. The money she leaves for Matilda is given to her sister Emma Jane (c1854) who by then is married to ? Ruthven, 'for the benefit of Matilda'.
The last sighting I have for Thomas before the marriage in 1861 is here RG9; Piece: 100; Folio: 21; Page: 40.
Can anyone find him and his family on a census after that?
I have checked BMD but as the name is common I haven't homed in on anything with any certainty.
I'd appreciate any help in locating this family.
Margaret
