Who was Charlotte?
« on: Wednesday 18 November 15 16:12 GMT (UK) »
George King was b.c.1794 in Berkshire. His parents were William King and Elizabeth Hickman.
George married around 1814, I think.  He married Charlotte.  Can someone help me find any details about Charlotte please?  I can't find anything at all.  They had children, the one in my tree was Charles, b.1820 in Besselsleigh.
Thank you very much.

Could I ask where you get the approximate date of 1794 for George's birth?

A quick scan of familysearch shows children of George William King and Elizabeth baptised in Berkshire from 1780 to 1800 as:
George, bap 17 Mar 1782 Swallowfield
James, bap 20 Jun 1790 Fyfield
Sarah, bap 2 Nov 1794 Greenham
Mary Ann, bap 13 Dec 1795 Hungerford
Rebecca, bap 25 Feb 1798 Thatcham

Of course, I cannot guarantee that any of these Elizabeths is the mother of your George (or that this is a complete account of all King baptisms in every Berkshire parish), but I am wondering if his birth was earlier than your estimate, this could put a marriage earlier as well.

All the best.
Philip

These "senior moments" are happening too often.  A loud "whoops!" from me, and thank you for spotting it, CaroleW.

I'll endorse that too!!.

There's a family in the '41 Census that includes a George, Charlotte, Charles and Sarah - HO107  24  2  18. All born in County. Cannot spot this George and Charlotte in '51.

Thank you for your replies.

Philip - I think I must have found his birth date on Ancestry, but haven't got the proof.

I found them on the 41 census too, but can't find anything else "concrete".

Thanks again for your help.
