Hi.
I wondered if any one can help find Henry in between years please.
He was baptised in 1826 with his siblings and married Ruth Pettitt in
1849 on Wellingborough.
He had 4 children Elizabeth 1850, Wavendon, William H 1852 Wavendon
moved to America about 1881-1886, John 1854 who died and Emma J 1856 Wellingborough R.D.
I have birth certificates and baptisms for some of the children.
Then both the parents and children are no longer found after the 1851 census.
There has been a lot of information about other family members on link below
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=767714.0
After yesterday purchasing Henry's death certificate in 1895 in Australia it notes
Sarah (Hocking) as wife who he married in 1884. I also have his probate records
for himself and Sarah.
So as I can not find Ruth dying or any other info about the children, Henry's arrival in Australia
can any one fill in the missing blanks at all please.
Thanks
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
I have received a PM from you about his wife's family which I will look more closely at shortly.
However, in the meantime, had you seen this Australian newspaper obituary notes for Henry HUTTON?

Just to verify the 1861 finding from rosie17
Here is some relevant information from 1851.
Weathercock Lane
Civil Parish Aspley Guise Bedfordshire
At Weathercock Inn.
Robert BAILEY. 32. Farmer and Innkeeper
Caroline BAILEY. 30
Their children
John BAILEY. 3
Frederick R BAILEY. 1 month
Lucy Fairey. 17 servant
Arthur HUTTON. 24. Lodger. Single. Bricklayer.Born Aspley, Bedfordshire, England.
Arthur was the brother of Henry and the two men were in Australia by 1858 where we have an early sighting of Hutton and Co. miners who made rich strikes in Castlemaine,

There is a sighting of Henry HUTTON in Castlemaine (Campbell’s Creek) in November1857. Lost a horse.

There is more information about the two men, but I wanted to confirm that rosie17 was on the right track with the BAILEYs

Morning Sue.
Thank you kindly for the information you have found. Amazing.
I have sent for a death cert for Ruth and am awaiting arrival.
We have 2 Henry Hutton from Aspley one born 1820 and one born 1824.
I will read through the newspapers in due course.
On Henry's death cert I purchased it said not known as to the time he had resided
in Australia ?.
Thanks trish1120 for confirming the age on the death for Ruth.
The new GRO deaths info is brilliant for knowing the age prior to 1866.
Thanks again. Made my day.

Hi Paul,
There is a god deal of information on Trove archives about both Arthur and Henry and their marriages, business affairs and so on.
Such items that I have seen today, include the alleged assault on Mary Ann Hutton, mentioned above, a serious mining accident for Arthur. Other revealing snips too.
Australian resources, both free and individually owned and accessed show the births and deaths of children and family which I have spotted today.
If the Australian connection is of interest to you, perhaps you could start a thread on the Australian board. ;D
Lots of help there.

Hi Sue,
I'm more interested in Ruth and her children as they should share some of my DNA. I am rather busy right now so will perhaps come back to the Aussie side later though learning what became of Henry is interesting and has been duly noted in my tree for future research.
Regards,
Paul
