Good evening,
Please can someone help me work out Ellen F R Hewer's birth / correct parents?
I think finding out the correct reg district for Clanfield, Berkshire (now Oxfordshire) in the 1870's might help me? I can't work it out - was it Witney (didn't think was ever in Berkshire though)?
On the 1881 census it says she was born in 1872 Clanfield, parents are Thomas Hewer and Mary Ann Moss Keen. The marriage for them is 1874 though.
I can't find a birth record for Ellen (middle names are Florence Radburn / Bradburn) so wondering if she was registered in Mother's name and Thomas isn't her biological father?
Or Mary Ann isn't her mother and her father married before but haven't found anything to support this yet.
Thanks
