Gertrude Eliza Hill born 1877 in Islington, London, married August Haack, a German, in Islingtom third quarter of 1900.
Gertrude's parents were Rosa C Britten and Henry Hill.
On the 1911 Census they are shown as having 5 children of whom 2 had died. I was uncertain whether the Haach was really Haack, but checking
My research has shown 5 children born in the period 1900 -1910 of whom the first, William Charles A Haack born 1901, died 1906, was the only one to die.
The 4 other children were Doris Gertrude M G born 1902, Vera Hannah B born 1907, Bessie Ellen born 1908, August Haack born 1910. All but Vera were shown on the 1911 Census.
An additional 2 children were Claus George born 1912 (known as George), and Grace born 1918.
As a child I can remember visiting August 'Gus' and Gertrude 'Gert', with my father, their nephew. Present were George, Bess and Grace. George had married Edna Wylde in 1953.
I think I have deaths for Doris 1923, Vera 1973, George 1965 and Grace 1996, but cannot find Bessie and August.
August Haack born1910 could have emigrated, but I do not have access to US details.
Whereas the children were born as Haack, they and the parents mostly appear to die as Hack.
I would really appreciate confirmation that I have the correct children, and also would like to find the deaths of Bessie and August.
I only really knew my second cousins Bess, George and Grace. Contact was lost when my father died in 1992.
Thanks in advance.

That 1911 Census is a mess. The Meakins live next door and have nothing to do with the Haacks.
A doubt I had about the 1911 Census was the fact the August Haack's occupation shown as tailor. On 1901 he was a hairdresser. Maybe tailoring was more lucrative with a growing family.

Old - do you know where the three children on the 1911 were born? (No details given on the census).
Was wondering if it could be Germany ?

Oh well, that's ruled out the August Haack b 1909 in Germany that I found in US records. Have since found his parents were Kurt and Caroline.

Having revisited this family, I am now puzzled by Vera Hannah B born 1907.
I believe that Chris Ho is correct with his identification of Wilhelmine Rose C born 1903 and this would mean that Vera is not a child of August and Gertrude.
Vera appears on a number of family trees as part of this Haack family. I have tried to find her on the 1911 census, to find her parents, but without success.
I was also surprised to find Bessie had married and had a son. My childhood memories have both Bessie and Grace as spinsters. Their brother Claus George - known as George did marry but had no children.
I would really appreeciate a fresh pair of eyes looking at Vera and Bessie.
Thanks in advance

Now I am really confused.
I decided to look at Electoral Registers.
In 1939 Grace is shown living with August, George, Gertrude and VERA
In 1945 Grace is living with vERA
In 1947 Grace is shown living with George and VERA.
In 1953 Grace is living with George. George C, Gertrude and Vera
In 1964 Grace is living with Gertrude and Vera at 2 Bevan Street - a change of address.
This leads me to believe that Vera could be Bess.
Any thoughts please

Following on from GB:

I think her middle names might have been reversed on marriage record below?
Name: Bessie M E Hack Spouse Surname: Handley Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1946 Registration district: Hackney Inferred County: Middlesex Volume Number: 5c Page Number: 1683
Spouse: Alfred E V Handley Hack Jul-Aug-Sep 1946 Hackney Middlesex
Death of spouse?
Name: Alfred Edward V Handley Birth Date: 20 Nov 1902 Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1978 Age at Death: 76 Registration district: Hackney Inferred County: London Volume: 12 Page: 1425
Looks like they might have had one son. Won't put details as hopefully still living, but easily found on FreeBMD.

HOWEVER Bessie Ellen could be this girl in 1911, ie NOT from your Haack/Hack family.
Address is in St Giles area, as per birth ref GB found. Though no middle names are given for Bessy, her mother is named Ellen...
Reg. District: St Giles<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Sub District: St Giles and Bloomsbury Parish: St Giles in the Fields and St George Bloomsbury Enum. District: 9
Address: 30 Little Earl St W C County: London
HACK JUNR, Henry Head Married M 31 1880 Furniture Dealer Melbourn Australia Resident HACK, Ellen Wife Married 6 years F 27 1884 Assistant Colchester Essex HACK, Henry Son M 5 1906 School Southend Essex HACK, Bessy Daughter F 2 1909 Holborn London<<<<<<
Putting together your memories of Bessie being a spinster, and the fact her third initial was 'B', I think you are probably right in thinking Vera Hannah/Anna B was known as Bessie.

As I said at 02.51 today, I agree with you that Vera is almost certainly Bess, and Bessie Ellen M Hack, born 1908 is probably the daughter of Henry and Ellen Hack from the 1911 census I posted.
EDIT: Not sure if you meant to resend your earlier post about the electoral register entries, or if it's a glitch?

On checking the records on Ancestry for the death of Wilhemina Rose C Haack, I found the actual record to be perfectly correct, but misfiled under Haace.
I have left a comment to record the error.
I wonder how it happened as 'E' and 'K' are not close on the typewriter.
