Is there any chance that Hettie & Richard were abroad at that time?

Was this the right Richard?

Thanks for the info on the Cresswell's you seem to have them all ok. I dont think my gran was a suffreget, but there was a storey of her going away to have a baby, and I believe Gertrude may have taking the child as her own. I have looked for births for a jordan toa jordan, and there was this one; Births Sep 1911 Jordan George A Jordan Wolverhampton 6b 1048. Although I dont knew if it was true or not and have not gone into it any further. I cant find a search box for Wolverhampton on 1911, so cant rule it out as yet. Any ideas what area that came under. this is all Whisperd gossip, I dont know if there is any truth in it, but in 1911 it would have been hushes up.
Funny enough I think I do recall Gertrude had a son called George, so...
he was also her only child.
Thanks again
Kathy

Was your grandmother Hetty/Hettie a suffaragette?[gee i cant spell that}
If she was she may not have been on the 1911 as they refused to be on it as part of their fight for the vote!!
they went to great lengths to avoid being on it.
And one woman just wrote accross the form that

If I am intelligent enough to fill this form in then I am intellegent enough to put an X on a voting paper.

And that was all that was on it!

Dam its not her she is the daughter of a Thomas Jordan, and no relation to my family line. Back to the drawing board.

Kathleen Report 11 Apr 2009 14:15

hi again, yes I have the one in london now, but her full name was Hetty elizabeth and there is a one for Leicestershire age 17, I think I will give that one a try and see what it brings up, I will get back to you when I get the record, in the mean time has anyone had any luck with Richard Chaters, her husband. they married in Gateshead Durham and ived there for a number of years, Richard was a coal miner.
Be back soon
