Thanks for your help,yes you do have my great grandmothers family in 1851 and 1861, I have been trying to trace Charles Wright 1854 because as the only male he would have kept the surname and there may be descendants of his somewhere.There is a strong family story that Harriet was descended from a travelling family and yet if she grew up in a house in Bull Street it may just be a tall story! I do know that her mother's maiden name was Jackson and she was born in Stamford Rivers Essex.
Thanks again
Janet.
