Hi Liz,
Yes, I'm guilty also of not delving into my family history as often as I should ! Trouble is, it's very hard to sit in front of a computer when the sun is blazing and all sorts of outside activities beckon. Now that we're heading into winter, though, I may find more motivation....!
'Annie' Upson was, I believe, actually christened Eliza Ann, one of ten siblings (including your grandmother Elizabeth) born to Robert Upson and Fanny Springett. The other eight were George, Robert, Charlotte, Ellen, Maud, John, Emily and Harriet - clearly having no TV kept them busy at night...!
Interestingly, Fanny Springett's mother (Bethsheba - I haven't traced her maiden name yet) was born in Castle Hedingham. Out of interest, I popped into the church there last month and what did I find in the current Parish magazine but mention of the baptism, on 14th August, of two recently-born Springetts. So the family line appears to have continued in that locality - unfortunately it was very late in the day and I had no time to make further enquiries. Something for the future, though !
Anything else you might have will be useful to my own research over the coming dark evenings !
Regards
