But, just checked the 1851 for sarahs of the right age living in Defford, there is a Sarah Hooper but no sarah Mills, so unless the right Sarah was not in her birth village for the census, it looks like Hooper is the most likely one.

Hi Maggie Sharp, LizzieL & Mike,

Many thanks indeed for your replies, very much appreciated indeed.

Maggie Sharp, a very warm welcome to RootsChat & many thanks for the marriage info re Charles & Sarah, much appreciated.

LizzieL, Many thanks for the Harrison/Butler marriage record checkup, much appreciated. I agree that Pershore district is a better fit for the marriage than the Dudley district. Thanks also for bringing to attention that both possible brides were called Sarah, much appreciated.

Mike, many thanks for bringing to my attention the different spelling of Harrison/Harison on the freeBMD marriage record, much appreciated. Knowing me I would probably have wondered as to why I couldn't find it & probably wouldn't have thought of that particular spelling! ;D

My thanks again for all assistance received, all very much appreciated indeed!

Kind regards

The birth certificate of Edward Harrison born 1884 shows Charles Harrison as father and Sarah Harrison formerly Hooper as mother. Hope this helps.

Hi Maggie Sharp,

Many thanks for detail from Edward's (b1884) birth cert re parents names. Very much appreciated indeed.

If you don't mind my asking, are you related to/descended from Charles Harrison & Sarah Hooper?

My line of descent is via one of Charles's uncle's. I would be more than happy to share what I have about the Harrison family, I have quite a lot of information! :)

Kind regards

Hi David
Thank you for your kind reply. Charles  and SarahHarrison are my great grandparents and I have only just started looking at the family tree, so anything would help and if you have any questions, I will try to help find answers.

Hi Maggie Sharp,

Thank you for your kind reply also, I suspect that there may be a few questions! ;D Particularly as I have just followed Charles & Sarah's children as far as the 1901 census so far, but have uncovered a few stories, but I will come back to that in a minute!

Firstly, your great grandfather Charles Harrison was one of 7 children of William Harrison (1802-1864 or 69) & Sarah Sadler (1810/11-1861). William & Sarah were married 28th Nov 1826 at St Andrew, Pershore, Worcs.

There 7 children were:

William (1829-1892) Married Mary Ann Harris in 1861.
Mary (1831-1837)
Charles (1834-?) Married Sarah Hooper in 1859. (Your gt grandparents)
Ann (1837/38-?)
Anthony Mark (1840-1845)
Elizabeth Sadler (1844-1901) Married Thomas Ford in 1863.
Joseph (1847-?) Married Sarah Ann Lea in 1887.

They were all born & baptised at Bricklehampton, Worcs.

Your gt gt grandfather William Harrison who married Sarah Sadler was one of 9 children of Newton Harrison (1771-1820) & Catherine Hudson (1765/67-1853). Newton & Catherine were married 20th March 1794 at Throckmorton, Worcs.

Their 9 children were:

Jane (1795-by1797)
Jane (1797-?)
Newton (1797-1874) Married Hannah Jackson in 1828 & Elizabeth Williams in 1838.
Samuel (1799-1885) Married Ann Hadley in 1829 & Harriet Hall in 1840. (My 3x gt grandparents)
George (1801-?)
William (1802-1864 or 69) Married Sarah Sadler in 1826. (Your gt gt grandparents)
Mary (1805-?)
Thomas (1808-1870) Married Mary Smith in 1830.
Elizabeth (1810-?)

Again all born & baptised in Bricklehampton, Worcs.

I have a lot more both going back & forward as I have researched both backwards & forwards, researching/tracking many of the children & grandchildren etc over my 25 years of family research! I would of course be more than willing as already stated to share what I have, it may take a bit of time though to pull everything together!

My apologies if you have any of the above info already.

I shall do what I have for your gt grandparents Charles & Sarah's children in a seperate post, otherwise it will make this one too long! ;D

Kind regards

David

Hi Maggie Sharp,

This is what I have as regards your gt grandparents Charles Harrison & Sarah Hooper's 8 children (that I know of!).

Frederick Charles (1860-1894) Married Charlotte Emily Gough in 1886. Charlotte Emily died 1898.
Eliza (1865-?) Possible marriage in 1890 to Albert Lane or John James Vale.
Arthur (1868-1889)
Ernest (1870-?)
Albert (1875-?)
Jessie Maria (1879-?) Possible marriage to Alfred Edward Jones in 1890.
William Henry (1882-?)
Edward (1884-?)

Frederick Charles was born in Defford, Worcs & the others in Earls Croome, Worcs.

One of the stories that I have uncovered is that concerning Charles & Sarah's son Frederick Charles & it looks to be a very sad story. Frederick Charles as stated above married Charlotte Emily Gough (1860-1898) in 1886. By 1891 they are in Birmingham with a 1 year old son Charles. Subsequently Frederick Charles dies in 1894 followed by Charlotte Emily in 1898, leaving their poor son Charles an orphan! :'(

What happened to Charles I do not know as I have not been able to track him. I cannot find a birth (1889/90 in Birmingham) for him as the Charles Arthur I thought might have been him appears to be the son of a Randle & Alice Harrison in 1901. I cannot see a death for Charles either nor can I find him on the 1901 census!

Charles & Sarah's is a branch that I have only just recently started looking into & have at present only reached the 1901 census as I am working through each one at a time!

Hope this all helps, anything that you can add to Charles & Sarah & their family's story would be wonderful. If you have any questions regarding the info in these last two posts, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards

David

Ancestry has a baptism for an Edwin Charles Harrison s/o Frederick Charles and Charlotte Emily on 25 Feb 1891 at St James Ashted in Birmingham. DOB 8 Feb 1891. Father is a labourer and abode is Windsor Street

Birth reg Q1 1891 Aston district 6d 357

Possibly as Edwin on later censuses


added

I think he may have died Q4 1891, there's death of Edwin Charles age 0 in Aston district 6d 181.
