I found this death of a Matthew Cutting in Yorkshire
Name: Matthew Cutting
Birth: abt 1829
Death: Apr 1896 - Bradford, Yorkshire West Riding

Perhaps he deserted his wife so she went back to her previous name of Martha Fielding??

Seems a long shot but Matthew Cutting does not seem to be a common name.

More help needed please. I know Matthew Cutting was born about 1839 in Grimstone Norfolk according to the 1861 and 1871 census but I can find no record in the bmd or 1841 or 1851 and he should be there. Can anyone find him? Thanks for your help.

In 1841 a Mathew Cutting aged 5 is in the workhouse at Gayton, close to Grimston, Norfolk.

Address: Union Workhouse, Gayton County: Norfolk

CUTTING, Mathew M 5 1836 Norfolk

Looking at the image there is also a William Cutting aged 13. Possibly a brother, but could he have been named after the father (Matthew Cutter's father was William on his marriage details to Martha posted earlier)

Edit, I see on an earlier post regarding the information from the Ancestry tree, Mathew Tennant Cutting 1837 had a brother called William.

Wow. Where did you find the image? Are you able to share it with me? It's definitely a possibility as I cannot find another Matthew cutting in 1841 near Grimstone around that date and yet the later censuses are pretty consistent that this is when and where he was born. Thank you so much for your interest and help. Any ideas where he is in 1851?

HI,

Jax is right, That is the same record.

I've think I've finally succeeded in pming you the census image.

Sorry it took so long to respond, I'd been off line for a bit.

Plus my old laptop died and I've just got a new one with Windows 8, but I'm computer illiterate and couldn't manage to access the downloaded image to send it on to you.

Think I've finally done it.

Didn't have any joy with finding Matthew in 1851.

Many thanks. I've looked at the original transcript on Ancestry and it looks like a mistake has been made with the transcription and it is Matthew Cutting. I believe Matthew's father may have been William Cutting and so perhaps the William is a brother like you say. I wonder what ever happened to his parents for the boys to end up in the Workhouse. What a sad time.

Transcripts of Brancaster baptisms from 1813-1880.

Several for children of William Cutting and Jane. William's occupation varies from baker/miller/mariner/labourer.

Strangely enough the one I couldn't spot was Matthew Cutting c1837.

Tania - re "I know one of the children, Alfred ended up in British Columbia"

Are you sure abt that - there was an Alfred Cutting, also aged 18 in 1881, that died in BC, but he wasn't your guy.
Course, there might have been more Alfreds, but I think you should check.

Harriet Cutting wasn't with her sister Mary Jane Haith in 1881, I think this is her living with her uncle and his family.

Was William's presence in Grimsby what drew some of his nephews there

Co-incidence or not?

Alfred Cutting's apparently estranged wife was named Emma in the census, but according to FreeBMD marriages she may well have been Emily Lill.

One of the children of Walter and Selina Cutting is Alfred Lill Cutting.
