Jull - I have searched the 1881 census - I have the discs - and there is not one Harriet born 1846/7/8 Whittlesey which is the birthplace indicated on 1871 census. Do you have the 1861 census and does that also give the birthp[lace as Whittlesey. Unfortunately sometimes, our relatives put down different places as their birth place on different census returns which doesn't help when searching for them. |

Jill - Ive looked on freebmd for a marriage for Harriet Fletcher and have not been successful as yet. Will keep trying. Just noticed the birthplace given for Harriet Manning is Grantham not Whittlesey !! |

Just gone through 1881 discs again and on the basis of the info above re Harriet Manning, I unputted 'Harriet b. 1846/7/48 born Grantham. Only two came up: a Harriet Mumby b. Grantham living Cleethorpes and a Harriet Panton b. Grantham living Manthorpe Cum Little Gowerby, Lincolnshire. I am getting to be at a loss of where to look next !! |

Jill - to pile on the misery, I have done extensive search on Freebmd for a remarriage of Harriet Bellamy - not one came up from 1871 until 1896, so tried Hahshebah Bellamy - nothing at all. Then wondered if she died. Tried again - no Harriet Bellamy of the right age. Did find one right area in 1872 aged 25 but your Harriet would have been older by then. Thinking caps need to be put on I think. Don't give up - it may be solved in the end !! |
