The writing is difficult, but.....in 1861

RG 9/ 362/84/44
4 Northampton Terrace, Surrey

Harriette Gregory, head, widow, 57, Milliner, Middlesex, Mile End
Harriette, daur, un, 31, do, do
Emma Hargrave, visitor, un, 31, do, London
William Henry White, boarder, widower 72, private tutor and land surveyor, Derby


Probate:
Emma Hargrave, formerly of Wallingford, late of 4, Northampton Terrace Camberwell, died  25 June 1861. Sole executor, William Henry White, of the same address.

Which fits nicely with

HARGRAVE, EMMA        32

The GRO Index Search shows ages at death for all deaths 1837-1915! ;D

You have to register, but it's free.
Thanks.  I didn't think of that. Unfortunately it does confirm that it is unlikely to be the Emma HARGRAVE that I am looking for as this Emma is at least 10 years younger.

Yes this fits in with the death in 1861 but this lady is much younger. The Emma I am looking for was born in 1817.

Yes, I realised I had spoken too soon  ::) I just backtracked to the 1851 census and found the Emma who died in 1861, living in the same area in 1851.

Yes. Thank you very much. This will be her. Her brother Benjamin was a messenger but her father was actually an Army Corporal. I really appreciate you finding this.
