thank you, will look at that one

freebmd has a death for Edward Havingham in 1845 and a Mary in 1842

Edward and Mary Havingham in 1841 - if they are Thomas & Frances's parents, I wonder why the children aren't living with them?

Is this from your tree ?

" My G G Grandfather Thomas Hevingham, was born in Staffordshire in 1839. It seems that when he was 18 months old, he and his sister (Frances) Fanny aged 3, were living with a family called Picken, in Tettenhall Road, Wolverhampton. They were still registered at this address on the 1851 census. Can anyone help with what steps I can take to try and trace the parents?"

Wonder if this was their mother???????? as this Frances parents are Thomas and Sarah.

Yes, that is them Mike, wish it was as easy to trace their parents

I have the information about the two children being with the Picken family , as "nurse children" and also about Frances being a ladies companion, and as far as I know she died unmarried. I really need to find out who were, and what happened to, their parents, and I just wondered if baptism records might be the way forward

I wonder if this is her on the 1841 she is with the family of Hannah Picken.

Hi Mike, thats what I wondered, so it might be possible that he is illigitimate, and registered in mothers name, so I could be looking for a female Hevingham? I have a couple who could be possible, born around the right time etc, so I will carry on looking. Thank you for your input

regards - Ann
