Hello, I've posted on here recently - and received some positive replies - so I thought I'd push my luck and try another allusive ancestor - Annie Eva Cooper :-) |

Hi Mark - children born out of wedlock was NOT unusual back then, our ancestors weren't as staid as you'd think ;-) Your nan would have had the name of Hatton as Henry had acknowledged her as his daughter. |

Do you know when and where Annie and Henry died? Their death records might be useful to work back from. |

Is this the right Henry in 1911? (It's what is also attached to the Ancestry tree) |

They definitely weren't married at the time of Doris's birth as her birth was registered in her father's name and also her mother's name:- |

If that 1911 is correct then this may be why he didn't marry Annie Eva: |

I think this *might* be the probate for the Catherine Hatton on the 1911: |

Yep, the info you've both given is what I have so far - but thanks for posting. |

There was a William John Hatton born 1911, registered Pontypridd, mother's maiden name James. |

This looks like the birth of William John Hatton:- |

I wonder if your Nan, Doris, ever knew that she had a half brother from her father's marriage to Catherine? |

After that 1911 birth there are 8 Hatton/James births in Bridgend up to 1934 - I'm guessing (hoping!) that it's different parents. |

Blimey, there's some stuff there I wasn't aware of. I took a brief interest in the Hatton family - so I had no idea that my Nan may have had a half Brother....maybe she didn't know..? |

There is a Hatton/James marriage in Bridgend in 1913 but not Annie and Henry so I would think those other births are to that couple. |
