Dear May,

The Henson name looks like it originates from Nottinghashire by the 1881 Cenus, showing over 570 people. It is then highley concentrated through leiiceshire 306 and Northampsonshire 354.

Huntingdonshire shows 65.

Hannah HENSON (dau of Henry HENSON & Sarah SKILLINGTON), born 1826, in Hickling, Notts, married Thomas EDGSON of Long Clawson, Leics, in 1851.

See my EDGSON ancestry on my website

There are several Henson's in the 1881 Census.

3 are resident in Orton Longville with Thomas born there in 1819.

I'm also looking to unravel a Henson mystery .... Elizabeth Henson married William Church.

She appears in 1891 (age 24 b. Godmanchester, Hunts) with widowed mother Sarah (57 b. Holton? Hunts) (nee Sarah Ann Harrop?).

In 1881 Elizabeth is in the Union workhouse Peterborough with William & Susan. Can't find Sarah.

Can't find any of them in 1871.

Anyone help?

Hi May,
I was interested in your post about the Henson family.
Are these the same Henson's who were married into the NUTT family of Peterborough?I used to know a William Henson who married an Evelyn MOWBRAY .They lived at one time in London Road ,Peterborough .When I knew him they had moved to Alwalton.He died in 1991 aged about 90.

Hello May,

I do not know if this little piece of information will help, but on my husbands side of the family we have gone back to G.G.G.G. Grand father "Thomas Henson". His wife was Ann (Ringrose? we think).
They had a son "Thomas" who married "Alice" (last name unknown). I haven't got all their children but some of them were born in Naseby, Northampton. They could of had a "Thomas" as I have plenty of gaps.

I hope the information help you.

Kind Regards

Children

Naseby is 32 miles away according to Parloc. I have all my Hensons in Orton Longueville going back to 1780. Are yours before this??
Best wishes

Hi May

Yes my Henson are before 1780. So far I have gone back to 1768 where THOMAS HENSON married ANN RINGROSE.

I dont think our line is connected, but you never know.
I will keep on hunting.

Cheers

Wendy

Hi Oleg

I have found

William CHURCH married
Elizabeth HENSON
in 1893 in Peterborough
June Quarter 3b 516

.... also ......

Thomas HENSON married
Martha PAWLEY
in 1893 in Peterborough
June Quarter 3b 536

which looks like Elizabeth's marriage, and if she had a brother called Thomas, it looks as though brother & sister were married at the same time.

So, if you're satisfied that this is your Elizabeth, you can order her/their certificate(s) on

www.1837online.com

quoting the infomation above

it will cost you £7.00 and take about 3/6 days

Happy hunting !!

Hi Oleg this looks them on the 1871 Census

1871 Census
RG10/1526
Duck End
Godmanchester
Huntingdon

William HINSON/Head/30/Labourer/Godmanchester, Hunts
Mary? HINSON/Wife/30/Haughton, Hunts
Elizabeth HINSON/Dau/2/Godmanchester, Hunts
William HINSON/Son/1/Godmanchester, Hunts

Not only has the surname been transcribed wrongly, but Sarah is named as Mary.. Anyhow, it's more than likely that this is your family.

And again Oleg,

I think this kind of proves that the family below is yours !!

William HENSON married
Sarah Ann HARROP
in 1858 in Huntingdon
December Quarter 3b 558

And again, you can send for this certificate as outlined previously.

Many thanks mobo!

William Church was my great grandfather - we knew he married Elizabeth Henson and had found the ref to the 1893 wedding.

The infuriating thing was the 1871 census - which would also have given the fathers name and lead to the Sarah Ann HARROP marriage! Can't beat a bit of bad transcription to infuriate - no wonder i couldn't find any 2 year olds (+- a bit) born in Godmanchester called Elizabeth or any HENSONS born in the town!!

Hi Oleg

I was initally attracted to this topic, as I have HENSON'S in my 'tree', but I also have quite a few CHURCH'S (who married into my MORRIS'S). See them on website as the profile below.

REBECCA MORRIS was born August 10, 1845 in Easton, Hunts. She married THOMAS CHURCH 1868 in Easton, Hunts. He was born 1843 in Barham, Hunts. Occupation: Butcher/Grazier.

etc etc. etc.

I have been to your site and checked the CHURCH's (and Henson's!) just in case there was a link.

There doesn't appear to be an obvious one as yet.

I have CHURCH's in and around the Peterborough area stemming from Peter CHURCH b. 1791 (ish) probably in Bury St.Edmunds - he married Ann COX in 1823.

From these two i have all sorts spreading to Doncaster, Hitchin (females m to PALMER, BEETON & APPLEBY), Croydon (ELSEY), Woolwich, Lincs (MACHIN) as well as those who remained in Peterborough (fem m. to STAINSBY) - but remarkably none in Hunts!

If you come across anyone who fits in with any of the above feel free to send in my direction!!

I reached this topic by googling Henson - hope someone else may get here the same way. My John Henson was born c1809 in Keyworth and married to Elizabeth Garner c1813. They married 1839 in Wysall. John's father was William, a stockinger, but then I'm stuck.

Does anyone recognise the family - or have any info please?
