Two Marriages

[smudger28]

Just another Idea out of the blue.

Hannah DEXTER was born in Uppingham abt 1811 so I did a search on the Uppingham 1851 census for a Hannah of about 40 and found this one

Samuel Porter, Male, 49, Married 
Relationship to Head
Head   Occupation
Agricultural Labourer Birthplace
Rutland Belton
Street
Beast Market 
Book Number: 1 Schedule Number: 164 

~~~~~~~~
 
Hannah Porter, Female, 40, Married 
Relationship to Head
Wife   Occupation
 Birthplace
Rutland Uppingham
Street
Beast Market 
Book Number: 1 Schedule Number: 164 

~~~~~~~~
 
George Porter, Male, 14 
Relationship to Head
Son   Occupation
 Birthplace
Rutland Uppingham
Street
Beast Market 
Book Number: 1 Schedule Number: 164 

~~~~~~~~
 
Joseph Porter, Male, 11 
Relationship to Head
Son   Occupation
Scholar Birthplace
Rutland Uppingham
Street
Beast Market 
Book Number: 1 Schedule Number: 164


Now I have a Samuel death in 1858 which would pave the way for my Francis to marry her.

I could do with seeing the 1861 Uppingham census to see if Hannah PORTER appears with her children with her maiden name and her children keeping the PORTER name?

She meets Francis DEXTER between 1868 - 1871 somewhere.

Just a hunch but who knows?

Please let me know your thoughts

Hi Kathy

I'm about to order a marriage certificate and wanted to check with you some information you gave me a while ago.

Here it is below.

I have managed to find one of them for you -

Francis DEXTER & Martha HILL    June quarter 1851 at Stamford  24  1145

I think the 24 is supposed to be 14.

Would you be able to tell me?

Thanks

Paul

A couple of things.....

1)  The ref. should be 14 !!  sorry.....it must be my misreading of the roman numerals !  Anway I have double checked and you are correct.

2) The information about Hannah Porter has given us the other marriage !!!

Re: the ref. I gave you for the Francis Dexter marriage -

December q. 1870 in Leicester  7a 501

I cross referenced it with Hannah Porter.....and YES!!!  it is the same ref. No.....well done smudger !!

Just out of interest, I think the PORTER's must have been an old Rutland family, one of them married into my EDGSON'S viz:

HANNAH PORTER daughter of JEFFREY PORTER was born November 28, 1690 in Langham, Rutland.  She married WILLIAM EDGSON February 16, 1710/11 in Langham, Rutland, son of WILLIAM EDGSON and SARAH BLUNT.  He was born December 24, 1685 in Langham, Rutland, and died 1719 in Langham, Rutland.
   
Children of HANNAH PORTER and WILLIAM EDGSON are:

William Edgson, b. June 10, 1716, Langham, Rutland.
Jeffrey Edgson, b. November 1, 1718, Langham, Rutland.
