I can't see a birth on freebmd for a Hetty in Essex from 1868-1875?

I was able to find Hetty, the daughter of Walter & Harriet Hunnable. Thank you. I have a picture of her at my grandparent's wedding so I knew it was after 1930. I would like to know if she was ever married, but I was unable to find anything in the 1911 census because I don't have an account. But Thank You!

Given that Hetty was the only one still living with her stepmother in 1911 Census and the fact that she was 39 years old then, I have look for a death under her maiden name from 1930 to 1966 and not found it. So maybe she did marry after 1930.

In case you don't have here is her stepmother's death

Hunnable, Hannah, Aged 94 years, Braintree Vol 4a, Page 1262


EDIT

Just noticed, I forgot to add the Year - it was JFM Qtr. 1937

I'm confused.

Hetty was born 1872. Walter's first wife Harriet died 1878. Walter married Hannah 1879. So Harriet is Hetty's mother - ?

Except there's no birth record for Hetty Hunnable that I can see. (Is Hetty not a nickname for Harriet usually?)

Was Hetty actually Walter's stepdaughter, Hannah's daughter?

The surname in the 1881 has been corrected at Ancestry -- see the correction on Walter's record. Click on it. The Ancestry user who posted the correction only 6 weeks ago can be contacted through the Ancestry system. Do you know him, Sherri?


Oh yikes, here's Hetty, I think. (Where did 3/1872 come from, Sherri?)

Not this one:

Name: Hetty Hunnable
Spouse: Edward I Bradford
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1943
Registration district: St Olave Bermondsey
Registration county (inferred): London
Volume Number: 1d
Page Number: 87

There are Bradford-Hunnable births in 1949 and 1953 -- so that's the Hetty born 1921.

Hi Sherri - can you post replies in the thread instead of sending them privately? It's just way too inconvenient to toggle back and forth between discussion board and private messages to follow a discussion.

I agreed -- that the marriage would be a different Hetty. ;)

And yes, if what you have is a christening date for Hetty, it's possible she was born late the previous year. You might want to get that birth cert to check the parents and see whether it is your Hetty, since it's the only likely one I can see!
