London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906

Name: Harriet Martin
Record Type: Baptism

Mother's Name: Emily Martin
Parish or Poor Law Union: Shadwell, St Paul
Borough: Tower Hamlets
Register Type: Parish Registers

Address: 15, Cornish St, Rotherhithe.

Father's Occ: Printer

Don't think thats the right one.. parents should be James and Francis

Why didn't you say so, if you knew?

The certs will give you the info you want

I am not 100% and do not want to spend money on a certificate when it could be the wrong one.

The family lived in Woodford, Essex so I would assume that the baptisms/burials happened in that area.

Are there any websites that hold the info I am looking for?

Not free ones, apart from familysearch, which has very limited coverage of Essex

What do you know about the parents?

Is this the right family?

Kathleen is not with family in 1911, as you can see.

However, she is shown on the census.......working as a servant

Yep that is the family :-)

Not sure how to find the other child??

Possible marriage of James and Frances as she is shown as Frances Martha in the 1911 census and married 23 years

MILLS, Minnie Janes
RUMBLE, Frances Martha <<<<<<<<

You didn't mention that the marriage was in EPPING district

MARTIN James Epping 4a 301

Thank you for the info, I had the census and marriage info.

There is a rumour in the family that the child was a girl called Harriet but nothing was ever said about her or her death... Therefore the only harriet I found that matched the dates was the one posted above. All other children they had had their births registered in the Westham district too

So you're discounting the possibility that they had a child in the area in which they married before moving to West Ham.........................

The marriage info was posted only because you had failed to state its location

Family stories are often just that........stories.

I'll leave this with you now.....................hope you get the answer you want
