Oer looks like I'm not going to find his family then!

 Lindsey*

Lindsey* Report 16 Feb 2010 15:01

my thinking is she was not married at huberts christening hecce the long name for him. possibly his father is really a Henry Barrett

She appears as a servant in 1891 not with Hubert who is with another family.

I would buy the birth cert to be certain

and possibly marries later to Stephen Gibbens.
