1861/71 Census - HONEYBUN

[Kiwigal]

Would be very grateful of a lookup please
I am trying to find Norah Jane Honeybun in the 1861 census, I would have expected her to be with her family in Portisham:

From the Dorset OPC transcription:
46;Shilvinghampton
William Honeyburn Head 34
Sarah Honeyburn wife 34 b.Loders
Frances Ann dau 7
Robert Honeybun son 6
George son 4
Harriett dau 2
Hannah dau 9mths

Norah Jane would have been 10/11 years old she was born in 1850 in Burstock. I am hoping she may have been missed in the transcribing? She was definetley still living.

Surname variations: Honeybun; Honeyben; Honyben, Honeyburn.

And also trying to find this family in Dorset in 1871, they lost a son on Powerstock in 1871 but I can't locate them.

Many thanks in advance
Kiwigal

Whats your last sighting of Norah

[Kiwigal]

Thanks Joe,
 Norah first appears in census 1851 aged 1 year with her parents in Burstock. Her birth wasn't registered until 1852, when she was baptised in Burstock the same year;and then she disappears until she married in 1875, appearing as the wife of Thomas Bartlett in census 1881 in Stoke Abbott.

Had hoped that the Hannah in census 1871 might have been her sister, right age wrong birth place, but I can't place Mary as an Aunt in the family, either paternally or maternally.(she was also in Stoke Abbott in 1861).
I got all excited there for a moment though  , the Bowditch name keeps popping up in this Honeybun family, but I can't connect it to them at this stage

Great to find her family in 1871 though, fills in a couple of gaps.
Again many thanks for your time

Hi Kiwigal,

Normally babies are born and christened in the same place but it doesn't always happen.

We had a Honeybun born in Lytchett Matravers but was christened in the Bridport area where they came from.

Hi Kiwigal

It could be that Hannah/Norah are the same person.

There is obviously a Bowditch connection as William and Sarahs daughter Harriet as Bowdetch as a middle name.
