Mary Anne Hopkins.

Cannot find her death. She must have died after 1881. I have her in that census. She is not in the 1891 census. Can any one help please.

Mary Anne was Harris before she married Hopkins. She was born in Hatfield Peveral, Essex in 1843.

Hi Sylvia

The image on Ancestry has marriages for Dec 1803, then carries on with Jan 1804, etc. The year shown at the top of the page is "1804" - hence the confusion! As if we need those little errors thrown in to muddy the research waters even more ....... :-S

I am still trying to locate the Will of James Flloyd's father, Thomas Hopkins. There must be one for James to have had a "Testamentary Guardian", but I haven't found it yet!

Regards
Irene

It does say that Elizabeth Ann was a Minor, and was married with the permission of her mother.
