When were the children born? Can't find them on the 1891 - children's DOBs and POBs might help.

Edit - thanks Barbra!

Thanks for everybody's help with this somewhat baffling family !

As far as i know Thomas died in Northampton in 1910,so Harriett would have been a widow in 1911...but as for the name / age variations....???

Probably a good idea to send off for the death certificate and see who registered it.

Ages can change......but names im puzzled

Julie

Julie Report 29 Oct 2009 12:52

OK....we might be getting somewhere

Births Sep 1865 (>99%)
Tee William Northen Kettering 3b 155


William was born before they were married that's why he is a Tee.....i thing either that marriage is wrong or she told porkies about her surname

I think her maiden name was Tee

Hello again

Unfortunately i am posting this for a friend, so i can't add anything.

I think it best if i get in touch with him & let him know about the confusion.

Many thanks again for everybody's time + effort !
