Another one I missed, I just searched on Frances. Thanks again.
George is much younger than her and presumably widowed to have a 16 year old son.

Just found same thing - sure it's the right Fanny, her birth place of Morden is a small village.
Now to add Herbert to my tree and find out what became of him.

This part of the family have more illegitimate than legitimate births

Sadly I think he died in 1885 and there may have been an earlier Herbert who was born and died in 1880 in Wimborne

Oh dear, the Herberts could take some sorting out. To name two sons Herbert might be a clue to the father's name. No Herberts that I've found in Fanny's family previously.

Ancestry has transcription of the marriage record of Fanny and George Down. She names her father as Samuel Derham. She was illegitimate and her stepfather was Samuel Kent, so I expect that's where the name comes from.

Did you find the baptism of    Laura Hoare Derham   13 Mar 1863 at Wimborne Minster Mother Fanny Elizabeth Derham

She also died in the same year she was born but she has the same middle name as Herbert -  Hoare - Maybe their father's surname??

I'd found birth and death registrations for Laura, but not sorted out her parentage yet.
So looks like Fanny had four illegitimate children: Julia, herbert, Laura and Henry Herbert - equals her uncle George's record.
And if Henry Herbert married a White, it could be another rellie. Uncle george's illegitimate children were with Sarah White. They married when quite old.

There is also a possible Georgina born and died in 1867 in Wimborne.  Maybe named after Uncle George  ;D

I wonder if she was also a possible child of Hubert Henry Hoare???
