I am experiencing difficulty in confirming the wife and descendants of William Elliott's (c1817) son - HENRY Elliott born 1843 / 44 at Hoxton Middlesex / London. He is detailed on the 1851 census as aged 7 and at home, and, as 18 and unmarried on the 1861 census.

From other trees made available to me i have narrowed it down to the following :-

Married (date unknown), to Emma born c 1845 - children Emma J 1868, Herbert 1870, Martha 1872, Joseph 1876, Horace 1879 and Ernest ?. These details are from the 1881 census. In addition a shared tree also details an Arthur c1885 and ??Love c? as well as those previously listed. The shared tree also details the correct ancestors of and siblings of Henry in line with my existing tree.

The other possibility is -
Marriage (date unknown), Wife Emily c1843 and children , Henry c 1866, Emily c 1869, Thomas c 1870, Florence c1876, Martha c 1879 Ada c 1882 and James c1885. This tree also shows the correct ancestors of and siblings of Henry in line with my existing tree. It also states Henry's occupation as a Cooper, which is in line with other relatives I have confirmed.

I have tried searching later censuses and various birth and death registrations but have had no luck.
Any assistance in confirming the correct wife and children of Henry c1843 Hoxton Middlesex / London, son of William c1817 and Anne S Collett c1817 would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Mark Elliott 1959 ( GG Grandnephew of Henry 1843)
