I'll have a search for the other children on PRs online initially and see if I can come across Harriot's name.


In case it could lead to George’s first marriage, there is a group baptism that matches the children’s names

30th June 1837 Walworth
Charles Harris born 1831
Thomas Harris born 1834
Hannah Harris born 1837
Parents George Harris & Harriet

You just need George junior (c1831)  & William (c1839)

So It looks very much like my William is this William Henry Harris son of George Harris and Harriet nee Collins.

Many thanks to everyone :)

Maybe just a coincidence but on the same date and at the same place as the group baptism, Robert Harris & his wife Anne baptised
Anne born 1829
David born 1835
Jemima born 1837

To all the wonderful people on this thread that have helped.

Today I went on the GRO site to the see if the Harriot Harris (Collins) death cert was still there. (then found it on my hard drive lol)

I did a quick search ... and BINGO ..

You can add a maiden name for the mother in the birth search and there was William Harris in 1939.
