That 1881 for reference - I read it as Ann possibly being their mother, not their aunt: |

Lesley, how have you established Ann as a widow? |
|||
|
trailertrash | Report | 25 Jul 2013 20:06 |
I find it hard to believe that Ann had four children out of wedlock and was on the census as unmarried. Ann a widow was just a speculation that perhaps the four children were from another sibling who died and the widow Ann then married Dan Goodall. I have seen one or two children illegitimate but never four... |

Just another thing Lesley, it does look on the 1891 that Dan Goodall has acknowledged them as his children as they are listed in the Harding name but relationship for all 5 is son/daughter: |

My Mother-in-law was one of 11 children born out of wedlock and non of the children were christened, some bore the fsthers surname and some the mothers maiden name. It took me 4 years and a lot of help from many people on Gr to sort it out |

Sorry Lesley, just noticed your question about Henry George Harding and marriage certificate. I'm afraid the only way is to get a copy to see what he has actually said. |

Do come back and let us know what it says when you get the certs. |

My great Grandmother put down her Grandfather as her father when she got married. I had an ongoing argument with another researcher for months about it so I know what you mean...don't you just love researching - you never quite know what will turn up and it usually is not what you expect anyway.... |

Lesley - order from here, they cost £9.25 inc postage (cheaper than from a register office) |
