The children on 1851 census might not be Charlotte's. Relationship to 'head' is shown but there could have been a previous wife. Calling oneself 'wife' was probably more respectable in 1891. My great grandmother is listed in that census with her husband and their 3 daughters. She married him in 1892. Yes people did lie. |

If this helps Henry and Charlotte are living in the same parish in 1841 if these are the correct famillies.

If you get a birth cert for one of the children it will confirm Charlotte's maiden name. nell |

The marrying later makes sense, is that something that happened in the 1840's, or could it be a late registration of a wedding. |

There is a Henry Veale aged 70 living with wife and son in 1851 census. I have come across relatives having 2 spouses of the same name - they don't seem to have any consideration. |

That's what we think, but why is the marriage only in 1852, when they ahd been having children since 1845, and she is shwon in 1851 Census as his wife |

Is the lodger the father / or cousin or / uncle of Charlotte? Often happened in my family that the neighbours or lodgers turn out to be relatives. Kim |

1851 Census Henry Habberfield living in Bristol with wife Charlotte and 2 children 1861 Census Henry Habberfield living in same street in Bristol with wife and children, and a lodger Henry Veal (widower) aged 83. The only marriage I can find for a Henry Habberfield anywhere near the correct time frame is in 1852, one of the 2 females on the page is Charlotte Veal. |
