Hi safc

I checked out those marriages earlier but couldn't find a Hannah Waight or Webber on the 1891 census.

Henry Waight married Emma Littlecott.

They are on the 1891 census with Emma's mother Harriet Littlecott.

Try ordering one of the children's birth certificates that should give you the name of mother.

Oh dear isn't that awful.

I think I will need to purchase the death cert for further information.

Thank you MarieCeleste.
