Harriett born abt 1816 London area. She married Henry Chandler 28 May 1837 Lewisham Kent. The family are living in Lambeth in 1851 and Brixton in 1861. Henry appears to die in 1862. After that I can find nothing on Harriett. She may have married but I can not find a good canidate. I guess she could be living with someone and is using his name. Can someone have a look and see if they can find her please?

Where does she give as her place of birth on the census ?

Any children - did they marry and was she a witness ?

That is the correct family. My connection is through daughter Eliza who married in 1862 and none of her family were witnesses.

Have you definitely got the right Harriet as there are quite a few Harrietts married to Henry Chandlers
You say your line is through Eliza but no Eliza on censuses posted.
When and where was she born ? and do you have her birth cert ?

Is this your Eliza ?
