  • Unravelling Harriet's past

    Hi all,

    I am trying to find out a bit more about Harriet J Franklin bc1861 London. I have her on the 1901 census and I know she is on the 1911, from an index search. I would like to find her prior to this if possible as she had a first marriage. If she was bc 1861 and her daughter was bc 1893, then it is possible she is on the 1891 as Franklin, her first marriage name. I think she would be in the London area still.

    Any help appreciated, so I can locate her first marriage.

    Thanks very much,
    treesa

      I don't know - I thought to work backwards, by hopefully getting her and her first hubby together and then looking for his marriage to find her name.

        Treesa, can I have more details to work with please? Do you know where she was born in London? You say she is on the 1901 census. What is her name on there and the name of her daughter and husband.

          She is with James Hillier bc 1847 Wiltshire and her daughter Lizzie Franklin bc 1893 Brixton. Harriet - it just says London.

                Do you have her second marriage certificate?

                This should give you her father's name at least and his occupation.

                  No I don't yet. I have only just started researching her. But the cert will no doubt confirm what teresa kindly found for me.
