MAJOR - Annie & Harry - Deptford
« on: Wednesday 11 April 07 22:51 BST (UK) »
MAJOR, looking for possible relatives of 2 people. 
Annie Maud Helen Major (b 24/4/1870) married Charles MARTIN on 26/4/1903 and Henry (Harry) Percy Major who married Sarah Ann COOK on 13/8/1905.  My ggmother (Maria Florence Mary) was elder sister to the Majors and until recently it had been thought she was an only child.  The Majors were all born in Deptford but did spend some time at Clee St Margaret, Shropshire as their mother came from there - Annie & Harry were there for the 1881 census.
In 1891 & 1901 Annie was "Housemaid" & "On own Means" & Harry was a "Grocers assistant".
Does this make any sense to anybody?

Ian - got this info & previous census entries but thanks for reply.  It was from 1903/1905 onwards that I was interested to see if there were descendants around. 
As I said until recently this bit of the family was unknown to us as the story was that the mother Maria had died ?in childbirth? as Maria FM was born Deptford, was christened in Clee & was at school there for a time (we have a sampler stitched by her in July 1880 age 12).

regards
Tony
